GoPro Hero 10 Black Review: 16 Things to Know!

[@Dcrainmaker]

Hey folks! The massive comparison video is available here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnWviqKsoMdsoc0 - And the beginners guide is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXW7h2SijJqliac

[@badGamr]

Great video! I did not see links to camera original samples mentioned in the video

[@rafaellima381]

how can you being using the camera the past month if gopro has announced it today? "a because im famous youtube i receive it before everybody so i can test and make videos" SO IT THIS MEANS IT IS SPONSORED RIGHT... IF YOU RELEASE ANY UNDESIRED INFORMATION GOPRO WONT EVER SENT YOU A "PRE-ORDER" OF ITS CAMERAS IN THE FUTURE i'm sure that even in the contract you signed before receiving the camera was stated that ANY INFO YOU RELEASE MUST BE AFTER 16/09 so dont come with this bulllshit of "sincere opinion not sponsored" only idiots fall for that is your audicence that stupid?

[@veryboringname.]

You noticed too "no lag in speech" But I take it in different way, its so annoying when you-tubers speak so fast and if there is a lag in the speech they cut it out, I think its stupid....

[@JBOutside1]

Thanks Ray! Great review. Can’t see a compelling reason to upgrade from 9. Especially since I can now connect the 9 to the phone 👍🏻👍🏻

[@Dcrainmaker]

Thanks! Indeed, for most Hero 9 users, it's not a major upgrade (especially with the Hero 9 getting wired upload). For a Hero 8 users, it's more moderate.

[@MoritzPilz]

Just the increase of usability is a big upgrade...besides that...doubled frame rates? That's a huge update for 9 to 10 much more than we got from 7 to 8 to 9

[@tramontane3239]

Its been ten years since I own a Gopro. Thanks for the update. There were issues years back when using these cameras underwater the waterproof case made image blur. There were aftermarket gadgets by other companies that resolved the issue. I wonder if gopro fixed this problem. Also the rubber ring washer on underwater cases would dry out and shrink and thus compromise the water tightness of the case with bad results.

[@LennyandSandi]

Outstanding vid! I always can count on you to tell it like it is, rather it's drones, watches, bikes...whatever! Now, you've been testing the GP Hero 10 for over a month and sending it through many, many tests--did you experience any type of overheating? Looking forward to your honest observations. Thanks, DC!

[@Dcrainmaker]

Thanks - much appreciated! No overheating in my real-world testing outdoors over the last month. I've been doing a bunch of non-real-world testing (leaving it on a desk indoors) to see what happens. I'll have about 20 different data points, likely tomorrow sometime. In short, if you use your action cam for action, you won't have a problem. If you use it indoors on a desk at 5K/60, you'll have a problem. Cheers!

[@loirider6881]

[@Dcrainmaker]

Sorry, somehow missed this one. Yeah, I thought we might see something focused on the FPV market (thus, a smaller form factor), but apparently not. GoPro stated this was their "Fall 2021" lineup, which means that's it for this year.

Hi! Thanks...just a question, what about baterry and overheating? I saw a video when Hero10 shuts down automatically after e.g. 20 min of filming...just sitting on the desk, with quite low res 🤷‍♂️ Thanks!

[@huskythesiberianhusky1952]

20min overheat... So sad! Several KZbinrs has pointed that out, The Tech Chap is very honest with it. Such a deal breaker with 20min overheat problems on a brand new camera

[@chrislsanders]

Great review as always...and that backdrop!!!

[@PathLessPedaledTV]

Is it as glitchy as the 9?

[@GilmanFishing]

That’s what I’m wondering. The 9 is horrible. Overheating and the useless remote randomly disconnecting make me regret buying 2 of those turds.

[@Mkungaa]

And cold weather battery performance... Gopro has abysmal battery performance in cold weather for camera, which uses winter sport for their promotion.

[@Technobby]

I've discarded 3 my GoPro generations in hope of the freezing would be better in each generation, but I was wrong. Any features aren't usable when it heat up and freeze to the point that unusable. I live in hot climate though. Seeing many review videos and no mentioning about this, I guest I won't risk again with GP.

[@Tri-Cali]

I have the 7 and the freezing/lock-up/heat issue drives me insane. Very tempting with all these new features but if the camera locks up then you will not be able to use any of them and will miss that footage. I'm tired with pulling out the battery for a hard reset. GoPro - let me know when you solve these issues and I will buy another version. Otherwise, don't bother making yearly update. I won't throw my $ away for useless tech.

[@jrbloggins]

@@Tri-Cali FYI the 7 is widely considered to be the worst GoPro

Great job! At first I was overwhelmed but things became clear and I understand the value of the camera now. going to watch your beginner guide now.

[@r0bv123]

Thanks Ray! I think it's time for me at least to upgrade from the 8. Good to see the back screen more responsive. But out of the time you've been testing this, have you experienced any lockups on the 10? I think that was the biggest complaint from 9 users even with firmware updates.

[@Dcrainmaker]

Zero Hero 10 lockups to date. Some Hero 9 lockups during that time. I find there's a strong correlation between how full an SD card is, but GoPro also hinted that the GP2 chipset gives them far better tolerances for performance (an thus, stability).

[@huskythesiberianhusky1952]

20min overheat... So sad! Several KZbinrs has pointed that out, The Tech Chap is very honest with it. Such a deal breaker with 20min overheat problems on a brand new camera

[@r0bv123]

Sounds like possibly a pre-release model and/or early firmware issue for TechChap. While he didn't say where it was overheating, if inside and static as pointed out by GoPro not recommending, this is not my use case scenario and have always used my GoPro for outdoor activities like skiing and cycling. Perhaps it could be resolved with a firmware fix, hopefully other early users/reviewers can comment if this is the case.

[@RogersPhotographyGuilford]

I just upgraded from a Hero 3+Black (yea I know it's older than some of you ;) but it worked for me up until now) and got a Hero10 Black (is there any other color?) for $349 + free shipping, SD card... I couldn't pass that up. I researched hours and picked the 10 over the Action 2 mainly because of component modules(battery). The dynamic range is pretty darn good (much better than the 3+). The audio, while ok, still leaves a lot to be desired. The dynamic range of the audio is pretty thin. The horizontal lock with the lens mod is amazing (why can't Nikon, Canon, Sony...do that with their DSLRs? :/) Low Light is actually pretty good. I'm not sure what people are complaining about. The only issue I have is that the shutter speed gets pretty slow, so if you move in anything but a smooth way you're going to see some motion/shutter drag. While battery replacements don't break the bank, the stock battery life is abysmal so you'll need a few for sure. I'm researching (micro) power bricks with the pass through door (any suggestions) because I need at least 60+ minutes shoot time. Not including the remote is pretty cheap IMHO but hey, I got a pretty good deal. I've only been using it for a week and have a lot more testing to do before I put it into my work repertoire but our initial tests indicate it's a "winner". Great review.
