GoPro Hero 7 Black review: An action camera for the social age

 

The Hero 7 might not come with a host of new shooting modes or imaging improvements, but it does come with a few key tweaks that make it exciting to new and old users alike. The upgrade in stability alone will save hours of potential memories from the...

Much improved stabilization ; SuperPhoto adds better stills ; Live streaming adds a new way to “share” ; Improved UI

GoPro Hero7 Black

 

The GoPro Hero7 Black adds stabilization to 4K60 video, and is the company's lone action camera with live streaming support.

Compact, rugged design. Waterproof to 33 feet. 4K 60fps recording with stabilization. Up to 240fps at 1080p. Voice control. Smartphone app with streaming support.

Battery life could be better. Wi-Fi file transfer time can be lengthy.

Bottom Line: The GoPro Hero7 Black adds stabilization to 4K60 video, and is the lone Hero with live streaming support.

Review: GoPro Hero7 Black

 

With new image stabilization features, the top action cam gets even better.

Improved image stabilization mitigates more shake. Way better time lapse video capabilities. Waterproof mic is clearer. Live streaming features let you get rad with an audience.

New touchscreen interface needs some refinement. Same general specs from last year makes this update feel a bit iterative.

Livestreaming is now supported across a number of platforms, including YouTube and Facebook. Previous GoPros could only stream to Periscope. Now it will work with pretty much any platform that has an open API.

GoPro HERO7 Black Review

 

When I reviewed GoPro HERO5 Black, I called it the company's best camera yet. But now in 2018 with the HERO7 Black, GoPro has made their top of their line camera even better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJOHBFpE4z4 Design & Hardware The GoPro HERO7...

Great 4K video and image quality ; HyperSmooth is great ; Solid build ; Easy to use ; Waterproof without any extra housing

Battery life could be better

Overall, the HERO7 Black is a great camera and possibly GoPro’s best camera to date. The HyperSmooth Stabilization makes it worth it, especially if you’re coming from a previous GoPro model.

GoPro Hero7: The Smoothest-Looking Action Cam Yet

 

If all the GoPro Hero7 offered included the new SuperPhoto and TimeWarp features, audio improvements and the ability to livestream, it'd still be a fine upgrade over past GoPro cameras. Image-stabilization improvements make this camera more than worth...

Shoots impressively smooth video ; Improved touch controls on viewfinder ; TimeWarp feature takes great time-lapse videos ; Sharp 4K videos ; Great price for a full-featured action camera

Livestreaming could use some tweaks ; Fast charging requires you to buy a separate accessory ; Still images can be hit-or-miss

GoPro's latest action camera delivers impressively smooth footage while introducing other welcome features like livestreaming and an enhanced time-lapse mode for an attractive price.

I Strapped GoPro's Hero7 Black to My Dog and My Hog to See How Stable the Video Really Is

 

On paper at least, I'm the stereotype of a GoPro customer. I snowboard and mountain bike. I ride motorcycles and dirt bikes. I fly drones. I go on scenic hikes with my dogs. But I haven't actually purchased an action cameras since 2014 when I picked up...
