According to our action camera expert
The GoPro HERO is a starter model action camera with which you can record your stunts in Full HD quality. If you're on the move, you can control the action camera with your voice. This keeps your hands free, which is great if you go mountain biking, for example. Afterwards, you can view the recordings on the 2-inch LCD touchscreen. Your images are stable thanks to image stabilization. The action camera is waterproof up to a depth of 10 meters without a casing, which is useful if you enjoy water sports. You can connect to the GoPro app via WiFi, and send the images directly to your friends. Edit the videos automatically with QuikStories in the GoPro app. You can store your images here safely, so you don't risk losing the fantastic stunts you've recorded.

Clear image quality both outdoors and indoors (when well lit). Very user-friendly as the first action camera. Collected footage from a whole day was quickly merged into 1 video thanks to the accompanying Quik app, without having to have much knowledge of this. Battery life +/- 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on settings.

Was first planning to buy a used GoPro via Marktplaats, ended up with a Hero Silver 3, for which 200 euros is usually also asked. Still, before the purchase, I looked for the new price of a GoPro and I came across this Hero 2018. Bought from my "house supplier" Coolblue of course. Similar to a 3-way tripod from GoPro and battery charger with spare battery, also from GoPro.
Installation of everything was super easy, immediately on the road and tried as much as possible during a walk. Stable picture, nice colors, very good sound.
Of course there will be a difference with the Hero 5 and 6, but I think for a beginner this is an affordable thing. Because that Hero 6 will certainly come later.
Chosen for GoPro because I have the impression that they deliver good quality.

Replacement of my gopro 3 is not too bad for me. The Hero was presented as an entry-level model with an attractive entry-level price. However, I am pleasantly surprised. Value for money and this camera is fine if you just want to make fun and beautiful videos. So highly recommended! Hans T.
