    • Excellent Action Camera with Amazing Video Quality
Style: HERO12
I purchased the GoPro HERO12 Black for outdoor activities and travel, and it has been an excellent camera. The 5.3K video quality is impressive, with sharp details and smooth footage even during fast movement. The image stabilization works very well and helps create professional-looking videos without needing extra equipment. The camera is compact, durable, and easy to carry anywhere. I like that it is waterproof and can handle different environments, whether hiking, swimming, or recording family activities. The photo quality is also great, and the battery performance is improved compared to older models. The controls are simple to learn, and the touchscreen makes changing settings convenient. The wide-angle view captures more of the scene, which is perfect for outdoor adventures. The only minor downside is that high-resolution recording can use battery power quickly, so carrying an extra battery is helpful for longer trips. Overall, the GoPro HERO12 Black is a powerful and reliable action camera with excellent video quality, strong stabilization, and great durability. It is a great choice for anyone who wants to capture adventures and everyday moments. ... show more

    • The stabilization is amazing!
Style: HERO12
Sorry I don't know how to edit videos yet so I can't show you what I will be talking about yet. I recently bought the hero 12 kinda by accident. I wanted to buy one but I didn't want to spend the money though. I had put a camera and a sd card in my cart and forgot about it, well I needed some vacuum bag rolls to freeze something, anyway I bought the go pro with that, oops. I have purchased a few other cameras to mount to my motorcycle, needless to say I was buying the cheapest I could that seemed to be ok. Well they weren't. When I mounted them to my bike the image quality was just terrible. I ride a Harley and I don't know if it was vibrations from that, or the stabilization wasn't up to snuff. I figured because I had the go pro in hand I would at least try it and if it didn't do what I wanted I could send it back. Well it works great. That is all I have to say about it. I haven't even gone into the more advanced set up features; and, I made my first video this morning and I was shocked at how smooth the video capture was. The colors were normal, I mean it looked like it did when I saw it with my own eyes, so I'm good with that. The purpose of the camera is to document if anything happens while I'm riding and it does that very well. I really didn't want to spend that much, but I will be keeping the Hero 12 Black and I am looking forward to learning how to use it better. The 25% off makes it a little easier to swallow buying one. I've looked at them for awhile and the price is reasonable in the end. I have a 256GB micro sd for now but it will take up to a terabyte if I want to spend the money, for long rides. End of the story is basically, I love this camera after one use and look forward to using it more. If I can't get the wife to come with me, I can make her watch the videos of the trip at least. Great camera so far, I'm curious to see how it handles a rain storm but I say buy it! I can't wait to figure out how to bluetooth it to the mic on my helmet for voice commands and to see if I will be able to narrate that way while I am riding. It has so many features that it will take me awhile to learn all of them and get the camera set up to do everything I want, or it is at least capable of. Not unhappy I bought it, still kinda expensive, but with these kinds of things you truly get what you pay for. ... show more

    • Bought this after my hero 9 stopped working
Style: HERO12
After my GoPro HERO9 stopped working, I decided to upgrade to the GoPro HERO12 Black, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Here’s my take on this action camera: **Video Quality:** The HERO12 Black truly delivers on its promise of stunning visuals. The 5.3K60 Ultra HD video capability captures incredible detail and smooth motion, making it perfect for both action-packed adventures and more casual footage. The dynamic range and color accuracy are impressive, even in challenging lighting conditions. **Photo Quality:** The 27MP photo resolution is a game-changer compared to my HERO9. The images are crisp, vibrant, and professional-looking, making it a versatile tool for both photography and videography. **Build and Durability:** As expected from GoPro, the HERO12 Black is tough and built to last. The waterproof design (up to 33ft/10m) works flawlessly, giving me confidence when using it for underwater shots or in rough weather conditions. **Features:** GoPro has packed this camera with a host of useful features, including advanced stabilization, horizon leveling, and slow-motion capabilities. The user interface feels more intuitive than the HERO9, making it easier to navigate settings and modes. **Battery Life:** The improved battery life is noticeable. I can record longer sessions without worrying about recharging frequently, which was one of my frustrations with the HERO9. **Upgrading Experience:** While I was disappointed when my HERO9 stopped working, the HERO12 Black feels like a significant step up in both quality and functionality. It’s a worthy replacement that exceeds my expectations. **Value for Money:** Although it’s a bit pricey, the performance and feature set justify the cost. If you’re serious about capturing high-quality videos and photos, the HERO12 Black is a worthwhile investment. **Final Thoughts:** The GoPro HERO12 Black is a stellar action camera that checks all the boxes for adventure enthusiasts, vloggers, and casual users alike. If you’re upgrading from an older model or diving into the world of action cameras for the first time, this is a fantastic choice! ... show more

    • Impressive action camera for the price.
Style: HERO12
### Review: GoPro HERO 12 I recently purchased the GoPro HERO 12, and it has exceeded my expectations in every aspect. I managed to get it on sale for $299, which feels like an incredible bargain for such a feature-rich action camera. #### Build and Design The HERO 12 maintains the rugged and durable build quality that GoPro is known for. It’s compact, sturdy, and waterproof up to 33 feet without any additional housing. This makes it perfect for all kinds of adventures, from mountain biking to snorkeling. #### Performance The video quality is outstanding. With the capability to shoot 5.3K video at 60fps, the HERO 12 captures stunningly detailed and smooth footage. The color accuracy and low-light performance are also impressive, making it versatile for various shooting conditions. #### Battery Life One of the standout features for me has been the battery life. Even during extended shooting sessions, I experienced no overheating issues, and the battery lasted significantly longer than expected. This reliability is crucial for capturing those perfect moments without interruption. #### User Interface The interface is another highlight. It’s incredibly intuitive and user-friendly, with a responsive touch screen that makes navigating the settings a breeze. The voice control feature is also very handy, allowing me to start and stop recording without physically touching the camera. #### Features The HERO 12 is packed with advanced features. The HyperSmooth 4.0 stabilization technology is phenomenal, providing gimbal-like stability in the most turbulent conditions. Additionally, the TimeWarp 3.0 feature allows for stunning time-lapse videos, and the live streaming capability is a great bonus for sharing adventures in real-time. #### Connectivity Connecting the camera to my phone via the GoPro app was seamless. The app provides an array of options for editing and sharing footage, making the whole process very convenient. The built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity ensure easy transfer of files. #### Conclusion Overall, the GoPro HERO 12 is an exceptional action camera that delivers on all fronts. Its combination of superior video quality, excellent battery life, robust build, and user-friendly interface makes it a top choice for both amateur and professional users. At the sale price of $299, it’s an unbeatable value. Highly recommended for anyone looking to capture their adventures in stunning detail! ... show more

    • I’ll try another brand
Style: HERO12
Dead on arrival. I couldn’t turn it on. I called the GoPro customer service telephone number which directs you to their website and then hangs up. Their website is basically a “figure it out yourself” AI computer. So because I got hung up on by a non person which directed me to a “figure it out for yourself”website, I returned it. My question? “Is it normal that the camera arrive dead?” Well, it is, I later learned. And that’s fine. My question could have been answered in two seconds and I would have no reason to return it. I just needed to give the camera a full charge and I’m good to go. I returned it nevertheless. The customer service was the big problem. It’s passive and you feel they are corporately cheap. And they do boast about their customer service. Don’t buy into it. Rash? Maybe. But I don’t care. That’s unacceptable to me. Like a store that pisses you off because ALL the cash registers are do it yourself. There are other brands, hopefully with a paid call center with real human beings answering real human beings real simple human being questions. ... show more

    • Awesome Little Rig!!
Style: HERO12
I bought this camera as a Prime Day deal. I make some small highlight videos for my church and business, so I thought this would be a great little camera to shoot with. It produces gorgeous video, first of all. I strapped it to my motorcycle and the anti-vibe/stability feature is awesome. It is smooth as can be and the audio recording is solid, too. The battery life is pretty weak. I hate the menus and the forced connectivity to a phone...just work out of the box, please. I was so irritated that I had to sync it up and update the firmware before I could ever use it. Between that and the confusing menus, I deducted one star. It still makes great video and pairs with a stabilizing jig really well. ... show more
