1 out of 5 eggsDefective Unit

Pros: Nice quality picture. 2.7k60 which is nice.

Cons: Device will not stay on for more than 20 minutes. Had to call into GoPro technical support and inquire about sending back the defective unit.

2 out of 5 eggsGoPros still have the worst microphones on the planet

Pros: Small size, easy to use.

Cons: Low battery life. The microphone on these things is just absurd. The sound quality captured on videos is dismal at best. Hard to justify $400 on a camera when the sound is so bad. By comparison, an older ~ $280 Canon HD camcorder has an excellent mic, and the audio won't get distorted even when recording VERY loud events, such as race cars or concerts. The GoPro sounds like it has a tin can and twine attached to mic. Very disappointing.

4 out of 5 eggsIncredible product in a small package.

Pros: - I have taken this thing snorkeling, swimming, skiing and 4wheeling. It's small, extremely functional and easy to use.
- You can turn off all beeping sounds and leds that turn on while the camera is recording in the camera's settings menu so that if you're recording wildlife you don't scare them off.
- You can choose whether you want to record in 4K resolution at a lower FPS or if you want 1080p at a higher frame rate, or just take pictures.

Cons: - The batteries don't last very long at all. Feels like 20 mins to an hour tops. Do yourself a favor and buy an extra battery and an extra battery charger.

Other Thoughts: When you buy a microSD card for this thing, make sure that the little number the microSD card is a 10 or higher. 4K video requires a lot of bandwidth and I was getting messages like "SD error" a lot. It was the first I had heard that SD cards all have a numeric rating and higher numbers means better data rates. It's like an extra $3 but it makes all the difference.

These things are so small, they're very easy to lose if you don't mount them or strap them to you in some way. Probably a good idea to buy a brightly colored floating wrist strap.

5 out of 5 eggsLove it

Pros: Awesome, small, lots of accessories.

Cons: Battery life

Other Thoughts: Upgraded firmware, seems to help with battery life, but high resolution seems to be a big part of the power drain..
