GoPro HERO9 - Waterproof Sports Camera with Front LCD Screen and Rear Touch Screen, 5K Ultra HD Video, 20MP Photos, 1080p Live Streaming, Webcam, Stabilization, Black

So over all, I think it is amazing. So I have previously used a GoPro hero 5 session, which for me was good as I use it for go karting and filming sessions out on track for tik tok, or analysing my racing to see where I improved. However, it didn’t have a screen so I could only look at it whilst I was home on my computer, or had to use my phone ,which wasn’t so reliable to due to connection issues, so I couldn’t get real time feedback from either staff or work out where I think I was going wrong, and could improve myself. With this one, it thankfully does have a screen which I have used both times I’ve gone since using the product. I like how it has a setting which makes it so both screens turn off on their own after 2 minutes.This really saves battery life and I find after filming with it, it goes from a full charge to around 60% after 2 x 15 minute sessions. For days.WhenI’m out longer I’ve also brought a spare battery and charging dock, which is one of the features I love so much about this GoPro, the fact you can change the batteries out rather than having an internal battery which you need to charge. It just makes it so much more versatile and means that now I can use it for however long I want without fear of it dying on me. Could definitely see this being a massive help when I possibly go off to places for karting and do multiple sessions where my current GoPro wouldn’t have coped. The imagine quality is amazing, however I tend to use just the 1080p setting but 5k does work great.I was also slightly skeptical about the imagine stabilisation when I first read about it, not thinking it would be any good, but I’m pleased to say it is! It makes the images so much smoother, and even when I’m either running around, or racing the moving my head about where my GoPros attached, it does an amazing job, especially compared to my Hero 5 session.I haven’t noticed the overheating issue as much, which could be due to the fact of I only run it for a maximum of 15-20 minutes at a time, and only use it on battery power. However, I can’t see this being much of an issue unless you run it as a webcam which this model does support. My main solution would just simply by a specific webcam, or DSLR camera and use that instead, rather than a GoPro.I would definitely recommend using a 64/128Gb memory card with this, as it does eat through memory. Usually I get about 2 1/2 hours worth of footage with 64Gb which once again isn’t an issue, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend anything smaller, especially if using extra batteries as it is a micro SD card which if you’re anything like me, are aware they’re soooo easily lost, which can cause so much heartbreak. Especially if you have just busted out an amazing lap beating your Pb and want to review the footage when getting home, only to find you lost your SD card.All in all would definitely recommend to anyone!!!

- - Delivery - -The delivery was a bit pants. From my understanding, Amazon deliver it to a secondary delivery company and when they plan on delivering it to you, they ‘scan it out’ which sends a notification to Amazon who in turn send you a code for confirmation on delivery. Unfortunately it took 3 attempts and 1 of them they forgot to scan it out so we never had a code. Amazon compensated me with a voucher which was nice of them.- - Storage- -We are using a 128gb micro card which we’ve noticed is a bit temperamental. The card itself is fine but the amount of space the GoPro says it has is inaccurate. I was playing with the camera and deleted all media but the amount of storage space kept going down. This changes with a fresh battery which doesn’t make sense.- -Battery - -You get approx 80 minutes of recording time per battery. It goes down quite quickly when turning it off and on in between films.- - Features - -Time lapse is a dream. It speeds everything up and all you have to do is record. It’s a feature you can experiment with.Photos work well. Not as good as a DSLR but still reasonable quality.The video quality is utterly brilliant. The stabiliser makes it professional movie quality; It’s better than I expected. The sound is very clear too. There are options to change the wide lens from almost fish eye to standard kit lens. The front screen is useful for framing and a great addition.It’s not the easiest to navigate and I am used to DSLR cameras and manual settings. The screen is a bit small or temperamental for my fingers. It’s probably my only real criticism of the screen.

Best action camera on the marketThe 9 is older now but still fantasticI would never buy the newest model as newer models only slightly improve on the lastBetter off going from a 1 to a 5 to a 12 skip a few generations and save loadsThe 9 is waterproof with no extra case needed but if diving I would defiantly buy a separate case

Bought this for my partner and he loves it! it has come with us on every adventure and never let us down. The quality is spot on, the storage is fab, the battery lasts depending on how much you use it (expected) so we did buy an additional battery incase. Cannot fault it!

We recorded our wedding on this and it performed well picture and sound quality wise, it focused well on the forground as the background, but the battery life wasn't as good as I'd have expected and for some reason gopro has a frustrating way of storing your videos in 15minute intervals, which you then have to piece together in an additional editing app or software after, so if your recording for 30 minutes, it's spit into 2 seperate videos and as far as i've learnt, theres no way to alter this.

I got this so i could record my daily commute to work and maybe start creating youtube vids again. The camera is easy to use and has an app which allows you to transfer files wirelessly. Its also water proof from the get go so no need for cases to make it more bulky. The picture quality is decent and sound is okay its what youd expect from a Go pro product. My only problem is every time i remove the battery its then asking for the time to be set again which on a tiny screen can be fiddly. Only reason i take battery out is i found leaving it in drains the battery when the camera is turned off. Im guessing thats because its not really off as a quick press of the shoot button and camera turns straight on and starts recording. Apart from that little annoying thing i find this camera to be a great addition to my daily ride and has helped me capture some decent footage and will definitely come in handy in the case of an accident.
