Video recording at max 4K resolution, Wind noise reduction, Discreet
Lacklustre still image quality
GoPro's Hero 5 Session might not have all the fancy features of its action camera rivals, but that doesn't mean this isn't a great piece of kit. Aside from a couple of niggles, most notably with its still image quality, the Session is a barebones action c...

Extremely portable, Excellent video and image quality, Robust, and waterproof to 10m without a case, Lightweight, Voice controlled
Diminutive package is fiddly, Controls are challenging, Poor battery life
The video and image quality captured by the smallest camera in the GoPro range certainly belie its pocket-sized packaging. Clips appear vibrant and smooth, while stills imagery is crisp enough to feature on websites and social media with little or no enha...
Great design, Fast, responsive app, Digital image stabilization, 4K resolution, Waterproof to 33 feet without a case
Aggressive wind cancelling lowers audio quality, 4K difference not always noticeable, No removable battery
There isn't an easy answer here, but we're mostly leaning toward yes. We say go for the Hero5 Black if you can, and the Session's audio issues should not be ignored. But despite everything, we still really enjoyed using it. It's a set-it-and-forget-it act...
The GoPro Hero5 Session is a capable 4K action camera with a minimalist design that pushes the specs to the max within its cube-shaped confines.It's the more portable GoPro, which may be a fair trade off next to the more capable Black version and its swap...
Great image quality, Sensitive dual microphones, Small size opens up mounting options, Easy operation
Non-removable battery, No WDR or RAW support for still images, No GPS
GoPro Hero 5 Session – Video and Audio Quality Where the Hero 5 Session differs from the more expensive Hero 5 Black is mainly with the frame rates available. Both cameras top out at 4K and 30fps, which is a huge upgrade over the previous Session's 1440p...
Abstract: We use a lot of GoPros here at Gizmodo. We use them to shoot timelapse battery tests for phones and 360 degree videos of multibillion dollar transit hubs and test runs of expensive cars on a dirt track. So a new GoPro action camera with a lower price tag...

Small, unobtrusive design, Captures stabilized 4K video, Several new field of view modes
No replaceable battery, Simple controls can be confusing, Can't match Hero5 Black's camera
The Hero5 Session is a major specs boost for GoPro's tiniest action camera. It now shoots stabilized 4K video and has a variety of new field of view modes. It's more expensive, but worth the upgrade if you're okay with no replaceable battery...

Abstract: Watching a race from the sidelines is never as fun as being in the drivers seat, and with that obvious wisdom in mind, Mattel has partnered with GoPro to create a new camera-compatible Hot Wheels car that lets kids and grownups experience what its like...
The GoPro Hero5 Session is a big improvement in video and photo quality from the original Hero Session. Additions like voice control, electronic video stabilization and USB-C help justify the $100 price difference
You'll have to connect to a phone or tablet to see what you're shooting. The built-in battery means that once the battery is drained, you'll have to stop to charge or connect to a power source to keep recording
The GoPro Hero5 Session brings top-notch features to an already great design...
