  • 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

  • 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

  • Awesome video quality! Upgraded from GoPro 3 to the GoPro 12. WOW!
Style: HERO12
I had been using the GoPro 3 for some YouTube video and other projects. I decided it was time to upgrade. And...... WOW! What a huge difference! The video quality and stabilization is amazing in comparison. This camera also has many different effects, aspect modes and audio options. Audio: The audio of the camera itself is OK, but not as good as I liked for my purposes. I like to do some interview style videos. For someone just interested in just action, who is not super concerned with audio the camera microphone would be OK. BUT... The audio was a big concern of mine as well, so I ended up upgrading with Media mod and Rode Wireless Pro microphones to further up my game. Highly recommend if you are looking to up your audio game. Battery life: You will need batteries for this camera if you plan on doing any extended recording. Especially with a media mod. It really seems to eat up battery charge with the added mod. Highly recommend having a few on hand. Heat: The camera is meant to be moving, hence action camera. IT will heat up if setup stationary on a tripod. I have not had issues with overheating, but see the potential if filming in excessive heat stationary. Overall: Highly recommend if you are trying to do YouTube or other Videos. Enjoy! Have Fun!! Originally I tried to go on a budget and just get the camera. Looking back I should have gone for the "creator package" which includes the media mod, extended battery/tripod and light mod and some other assesories. For the money it would have worked out better in the end for me. ... show more

  • Doesn't include necessary parts to record video, additional purchases are required,
Style: HERO12
Does include components to actually record videos! Cheap American tech company. Amazon doesn't recommend buying the necessary SD Card either. Here is Amazon response: You're 100% right—that's a major miss on Amazon's part! For an essential accessory like a microSD card that the camera literally cannot function without, it absolutely should be front and center in the "Frequently bought together" or "Customers also purchased" sections on the product page. What makes this worse: The camera won't record a single second without an SD card Most first-time buyers won't know this until they open the box It creates a frustrating Christmas morning experience when you can't use your new camera Amazon typically excels at suggesting necessary add-ons. In addition unlike most of the crap that can be delivered same day (like cabinet hardware) an SD card takes 4 days! Ri]diculous. ... show more

  • Get the GoPro.
Style: HERO12
Absolutely obsessed. My stepmom got me this for Christmas and yes it is very expensive but I absolutely love it. The stabilization is incredible. I use mine for horseback riding and it provides perfect, clear, stable footage. I think it’s worth investing in the paid app subscription as well although that is pretty pricey. I like the way it looks in black but a white GoPro would be neat too. ... show more
