Abstract: With its ability to shoot 4K video and 12MP photos, it's by far the highest-resolution action cam on the market. Yet, despite those capabilities, the HERO3 is still very small and light when extracted from its protective case.In the package is a Wi-Fi rem...

Super lightweight design, A host of accessories, Numerous recording modes, 12MP still images,
4K action can be choppy, Average at best battery life, Cheaper rivals on the market, Lack of a viewfinder,
The only complaints you could level at the GoPro Hero 3+ Black Edition are that there's too much power and functionality here for casual users and not enough for professional filmmakers. However, even for these two groups and for everyone else in between...
With rival action cam maker Contour on the rocks, GoPro continues to be the leading force in this segment. The Hero3+ continues to put options from the likes of Sony to shame, offering a complete system of accessories and an impressive feature set. That's...

Excellent video quality, Huge range of mounts, 4K and slow-mo modes
Lacks a proper screen, 4K mode only 15fps
GoPro's ‘industry standard' status has been well earned, and the Hero3+ Black Edition is a cracking good camera. However, in 2014 a £350+ camera with no screen and a three-button interface doesn't quite stack up. We'd like to see a major redesign for Go...
Very compact, lightweight design, Image quality is good compared with main competitors, Plenty of video formats, including 2.7 K / 25 p with stabilisation effect in postproduction, Battery life has improved, Better audio quality, 4x slow motion in 720p

An extra squeeze of battery life, small size and trimmed-back waterproof housing, quality results in variety of conditions, crop-in options for different angles of view (up to 1080p only), Wi-Fi enabled, new clip lock preferable
Battery life still not good enough, it's a minor update over the original Hero3 (not worth upgrading but good for first timer buyers), fussy user interface, 4K frame rate too low, touchscreen sold separately
There's no doubt that the GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition is the best GoPro action camera yet. It's an enabling device, one where you'll be capturing amazing shots in no time. But it's a subtle push compared to the earlier Hero3 model, not a giant lea...
Improved image quality over original HERO3+, Improved battery life, SuperView mode
Relatively expensive, External microphone requires USB adapter, LCD screen an optional extra
GoPro has made the HERO3 Plus Black Edition even better than the HERO3, with improved image quality the most significant enhancement. It's not a game changer, but it's a very welcome upgrade.Next, see our 10 best camcorder round-up.Thanks also to Scan Com...
Abstract: You can't just do something stupid/dangerous/exciting/awesome/mundane these days without filming it for posterity. And while action cameras let us relieve these life-highlights over and over, they aren't all created equal. We decided to see for ourselves ...
Abstract: GoPro cameras have been our go-to action cams since we were knee-high to a snowboard, so we're pretty stoked about the arrival of the Hero3+ Black Edition.This radical little box of tricks promises a better lens, longer battery life and faster wireless op...
