GoPro HERO8 Black 4K Waterproof Action Camera - Black (Renewed)

The box came with everything included and the camera works and records well. The only thing I'm not super satisfied with is the battery life, but sounds like it is a common issue with GoPro cameras.

I cannot stress enough what a revolutionary product this is. If youve ever had a gopro of any kind, you will know how shaky footage can be, basically making any footage from a head worn gopro useless. Well this thing changes all that. Its outrageous. It will smoothly film anything ive thrown at it, and when you wear it on your head, the footage looks exactly like what youre seeing in real life. Its truly incredible, i vote 200% go buy one of these if youre trying to film anything active. Also, it makes a wonderful point and shoot camera, and takes really really good pictures. I use it for just taking pictures more than for video.

Big improvement with stability and gimbal action.While I'm walking you can hardly perceive the normal bounce.Just barely adequate battery performance - lasting maybe 35 minutes on video.Also stupid design you have to open or remove the battery door to charge battery - leaving the inserted battery, the SD card and the internals of cam open to dust, etc.

I've purchased my laptop, iPad Pro 11" (2G, Cellular), the fancy iPad Pro cover/keyboard, my laptop, and this GoPro, as open-box or refurbished. Not a single item has been defective in the slightest way and I saved hundreds of dollars so far. No reason to pay full-price for these items.Also, before settling on my current iPad Pro 11", I had other versions, all refurbished, all were just fine (no cosmetic damages or malfunctions), and again, saved a lot of money. I was able to return the items when no longer needed at no cost to me.So don't be a sucker- try buying refurbished items first and if something is wrong, Amazon and other stores have generous return policies.Anyhow, the biggest gripe I have with GoPro is their crappy desktop software. GPS signal reception by these things is incredibly weak...although when using 3rd-party apps, I can see GPS data was encoded in the video, but the GoPro software won't ever display it.The Hero 8 is much improved over the Hero 7 and earlier, but the Hero 9 isn't much more than a, "My male part is bigger than yours". Can't watch 5K video in 5K if your GPU and display don't support it, so what's the point? (yes, I said 5K, because that's what the 9 advertises, IIRC) Also, the larger the resolution, the more space you'll need on your SD card.Anyhow, that's my rant. Go away now.

I've wanted a GoPro for a very long time. I saw that these were renewed and wanted to give one a buy. My first package came and it was a different camera. No biggy, sent it back and got my 8 black in two days thanks to amazon. They come basically new just with different packaging. I never really realized how many features and great image quality can come out of these little packages. They are work horses and I absolutely love mine!

It's a good camera but we always want better battery life and cheaper pricing.Over all is a good camera but I wish it was easier for older people to use. I'm having trouble figuring it all out and how to load the videos etc. It works be nice if I could transfer directly from the camera to another device using an HDMI cable instead of pulling out the memory chip and putting it into another device.I think I also need a newer lap top to use it as my old one don't seem to want to work with this.

What can I say other than its Gopro. Good reliable action cam. The only thing thats a little scary is there's no lens cover, but you can purchase several different types for your liking.This is an Amazon Renewed product. I have brought other Renewed products before and I was very satisfied and impressed. The 90 day warranty is what gets it for me. I did buy the Renewed GP6 last year. I returned it I wasn't impressed. But this camera for the price couldn't be beat especially with the warranty

Now I must say for what it is as an action camera I must give the camera credit, it records beautiful footage and works as a camera pretty finely where and why I leave such a negative review is for three reasons, 1. Terrible battery life in general, you better be prepared to have extra batteries, or have a portable power device and have to charge it while you attempt to film with it leaving a dangling wire around you at all times. 2. Now I would say the portable power device would be a good work around for the poor battery life if it weren't for the fact this camera over heats tremendously fast and for me and maybe just me I had the issue where when the camera was overheated it wouldn't charge regardless until it stopped overheating. Finally number 3. I had constant issue with how often the battery would slightly slide out of place making it so my camera would either shut off or wouldnt turn on making me need to open the battery compartment and take the battery all the way out and put it all the way back in, in order to turn the camera back on, on top of this where you would screw in the gopro to a tripod, chest strap ect, very often the screw would block the battery compartment meaning you would have to unscrew, open take in and out, close, put screw back in, and hope it works or you have to do all that again. Maybe this is a issue only I had, but it was the most frustrating issue I had in relation to the gopro and is what cemented I needed to return it for keeping it longer would of only caused more and more disappointments missing film opportunities because faulty battery. Now two real quick big gripes with the gopro as well, you have to download the gopro app and they really try and force feed you subscriptions, secondly this go pro in particular has legs that come out of the body so you can screw to accessories, but seems like flimsy plastic that's not always stable.
