@@fafo87I got both because I wanted more options, but honestly it’s so easy to use that it’s become my favorite out of the two. The 13 is really amazing, but this mini version is a great camera for someone who hates messing around with settings, it’s a fast point and go lil camera. Yes buy this camera only 200 bucks, I had mine a week earlier and couldn’t use it because the app needed a firmware update. You should buy it it’s worth it!
I’ve never had an action camera before and I like the simplicity of the Hero 4K, I understand it’s not for everyone, especially for people who are used to all the features of more expensive cameras. I don’t want to be overwhelmed with complicated settings/features. Great review 👍🏻
Thank you very much for the detailed review, I was looking forward to it. Personally, this simple and small camera covers my needs, I only use it occasionally for my motorcycle trips and sports like MTB and paddle surfing. I think that despite its shortcomings (integrated battery, lack of stabilization), its virtues of not getting hot, being so small and simple, and the good stabilization by the app have convinced me. Even though I can afford the Hero 13, I like the size and simplicity of this one better, and for my use I think it works great. One final question, what memory card do you recommend for this camera taking into account the battery life and my occasional use, 128GB?
Yeah I am impressed with hypersmooth feature on app, it’s very easy and automatically apply to video once you open the video on app. 128GB is good, 64 is perfect fine.
Thank you! Very good! It would be my first actioncam and I use it especially for mountainbiking with much shaking…. Many guys recommend dji osmo action 4 or 5… thx
Thank you very much for showing the differences between the devices in a tangible and real way, it gives an understanding of the size of the camera compared to the GoPro 11 Mini and GoPro 13.
Really enjoyed this video. Clear comparisons and allowed me to get what i needed with some great footage examples and highlighting some of the low light issues ive been having with mine. I think for the price its a great bit of kit. want mine for my dog primarily but other uses too! thanks again and keep up the great work!
Always a gopro fan last bought the 11 and wanted something small for the back of my gravel bike (use gopro remote) its 4k'ing fantastic...great review 🤙😎
i didnt get that he couldnt talk cus i skipped the intro and this was my first video i seen from him LOL. i think that his disabilty actually helps him produce good videos beucase i love all the angles how he films the camera. he shows angles and views of things other people dont even think about. he really has talent and he doesnt need to even talk and i learned more about this camera than any other youruber and he didnt even need to talk !! wow subscribed!!! this man is really speacial.
also the best thing about this is that its almost universal, so people in other countries dont even really need to speak english to understand the video ,its almost brilliant
you are so damn good bro! You explain all the details that one needs to know as a user, personally I drive a motorcycle and I need to have the hyperview, many people who make reviews do not show these details. so thank you very much!
I almost got the Hero 4k but with no Pro tune I said no. Color grade for underwater is important. Also went through 2 mini 11 each lasting almost a year and both stopped working. I’m done with gopro. When it works its great but going on my 3rd Mini 11 and to pay $100 for another, which has a high probability it will fail within a year. I said enough. Great review brahdda
Hey mate, awesome video. Just bought a gopro hero sports cam last week. Seeing many videos with only downside made me feel regret for buying it but now watching your video makes me make the right decision. Just wanna know if there is any screen guard or cam protector available in the market? You know for the safety purpose also how can we connect the mic in this gopro. I wanna know more about accessories and functions for this mini one ❤ All right peace brother. You've added 1 more subscriber in the list.
Very cool video man! I saw that for stabilization, the app makes a crop of the image, right? Moreover for record motorbike trip and summer family holidays, do you select Hero 11 Mini or this Hero?
Thank you! Yes it’s normal when video crop a little when stabilization applied… this camera would be fun to use for what you want to shoot.. easy and simple also it has LCD screen more enjoyable to shoot with
Awesome to see a hearing impaired gentleman doing fantastic videos on the very gopro I bought the hero thanks for the info tips and tricks keep doing awesome videos like this and keep on being yourself always thanks 👍
Looks pretty neat! But I'd choose the regular Hero 13 for general use and more advanced capabilities, and for a small form factor I'd go with the Insta360 Go 3S because it has an even smaller detachable lens module. Great video as aways!
I just wanna shoot some very simple daily vlogs, not gonna post anywhere but just for fun, and I’m not a pro in photography, a GoPro hero can do all the job I need. Thanks for the video!
The price is what brought me here. Thought I would be a great gift for my 2 teenagers. Would be used for beach, swimming etc. I am disappointed with the built-in battery and some specs. I guess it would suit them as it is really simple to use and edit.
hi, great video! I just purchased a Go Pro Hero 2024 for motorcycle shooting but I would like to hear the sound of the motorcycle and not the wind. Can you connect a microphone via Bluetooth? if so, which one do you recommend? greetings from Italy ✌️🍀😊
Thanks, this review really answer all my questions. I will skip this camera my work flow is to get the video out of the sd card and to prpare a vodeo which has matching gps file. So ot really tempting to get this lighet weight camera, but not for me. Maybe on the next gen.
Aloha chief, mahalo for the video. Is that your Cybertruck at 10:00 ? I was on maui last week and when I went to Kihei I saw a Cybertruck parked on the side and someone looking like you was sitting on the frunk. Mahalo again. 🤙

@@MicBergsma I will , I got a powered pan head so I can close to the trains, but control everything about 20 ft away , still looking forac Kona for my layout
@@Akshay_Chauhan did you watch the whole video? With subtitles on? You will have to turn battery saver : OFF then it will be 4k. Battery saver: ON will be 1080p
I wanted to use it as a FPV camera as it's half the weight but I just don't think the video quality is there, especially in low light. I'll stick with GP 11 mini and naked cameras.
Prob not the best camera for that tbh, not with the non-removable battery. Will overheat, esp if you are using it as a dash cam and it’s sitting in the windscreen.
