GoPro Hero 9 Black Review: 19 Things To Know!

GoPro Hero 9: amzn.to/3iEb42R (link helps support the channel, thanks!!!)
Here's your complete in-depth review of the GoPro Hero 9 action cam, which includes a pile of new features like 5K 30FPS support, 30% better battery life, a front facing screen, TimeWarp 3.0, HyperBoost 3.0, and plenty more. I dig into all the nuances with tons of details and real data to support the tests. Here's a full inventory of the 19 new features I dig into:
0:00 Intro
0:41 Front Facing Color Screen
1:50 5K Resolution
2:56 23.6MP Photo mode
3:42 Battery Life Tests
4:09 Cold weather performance
5:12 Removable Front Lens
5:50 Rear Screen Size Increased
6:00 HyperSmooth 3.0 Tests
6:55 Horizon Auto-Leveling
7:34 TimeWarp with RealTime
8:29 Webam Mode
9:01 Expanded Livestream Platforms
9:37 Hindsight Mode
10:20 Scheduled Capture
11:00 Duration Capture
11:19 GoPro Max SV Mod
11:45 Horizon Lock
12:12 New Mic water Drain
12:55 Unboxing Bits
13:33 Wrap-up
Written review coming up shortly!
Note: None of this is sponsored by GoPro, and I don't keep the camera they sent me. It's simply a media loaner unit (well, two units), which will go back shortly to them and I'll go out and buy my own through normal retail channels. If you use the Amazon link up above to buy anything on Amazon, it helps support the channel (even if that's a DJI OSMO Action instead).

[@SeattleJunk]

Great review! Thank you sir. I am buying this GP9 and this was the best review I've seen.

[@brandonrodrigues3068]

I don't see any real image quality upgrade here... Just some new hardware gymmics. By the way, the comparison between the DJI and Insta360 is not fair at all, you place the gopros on the chest (much more stable) and the others on the handlebar (super shaky)

[@Dcrainmaker]

In the comparison video I mix them around on different mounts/positions.

[@whatiship89]

ONE R is such an amazing camera. Ability to change lenses is a game changer (360 +4K) for the price lower than the Hero 9

[@nikoulph]

If you look darker areas, the gopro 9 improves on 8, I saw more gamma range (darker tones) in the shadowy mountains. And the thing of cropping gives better results in 5k.

[@nikoulph]

@@whatiship89 I never saw a more linear lense for the ONE R... I really miss a more linear (more than just gopro option) a true 50mm or 75mm lense.

[@enricgonzalez6247]

Correct. You clearly see the GP9 loosing from the 7+8 under low light circumstances. This is because they have added more pixels to the same sensor size. Yep, the sensor size is the same! So actually your videos and photo's do not gain in quality, they gain in pixels. You want to gain real overall quality? Increase the sensor size. Same issue goes for reflex cameras DS (small sensor) and FX (large sensor)

[@DeltaElite121]

Haven't had a GoPro in a long time, and originally planned to buy the 8 this year, but.. wasn't totally sold on it. Glad I waited for the 9. Ordered it yesterday on launch during my lunch break, and couldn't be more excited.

@@shrimpquarantine1741 The lens is an optical thing, I doubt it's just a marketing ploy and likely a technical limitation - after all, they recently added more Boost modes/resolutions to the Hero 8 just two weeks ago (versus just saving them for the Hero 9).

“Not sponsored” c’mon, having it before anybody else has a huge intrinsic value

[@Dcrainmaker]

It's just a media loaner. No different than The Verge, or NY Times or anyone else. That way you get quality content that highlights the good and the bad, versus just marketing speak from the company. That's the way embargo's work, they allow media to put together pieces that aren't just puff stories.

[@51Drones]

I suggest researching FCC regulations concerning product reviews before you comment. There are many rules dictating what must be said and what can't be said in every single video review you watch on KZbin. Be informed.

[@paulorrfilho]

51 Drones yeah right, you can talk about legal technicalities all you want, but we are not fools here. Slavery was legal at some point in our history. Influencers bs us is not right.

[@Dcrainmaker]

@@paulorrfilho There's unlikely to be many people as strict as I am on money from companies I review. Or anything from companies I review. On my main site (which is the majority of what I do), I don't allow ads from any companies that I review or write pieces on. They're blocked with hard blocks at Google AdSense. For products I review, they get sent back to companies. For customs payments...I pay them myself (which aren't refundable despite the products going back) - this alone is thousands of dollars per year. For travel, I pay it myself. Last year when GoPro had meetings in Paris for the Hero 8 launch, I paid my own tickets to Paris, and all travel costs associated with it. And still gave the cameras/gear back afterwards. I agree there's lots of poor influencer stuff out there, but frankly - you're barking up the wrong tree here.

[@hayabusaTravels]

Now let's see if the "other features" will be present in this camera. You know, freezing, overheating, video file losses and os on. I'm interesed, but I will keep my distance untill I know for sure that this is a reliable camera. 5K means nothing if the camera is not trustworthy to work as is supposed to. PS: what if DJI is "lurking in the shadows" with an Osmo Action 2? Would that not be fun?

[@Dcrainmaker]

I think competition is great - I'd love to see DJI come back with something just as strong or stronger. After all, the reason we got the front screen on the Hero 9, is cause DJI introduced it last year on the OSMO Action.

[@hayabusaTravels]

Yeap! It's also hard to innovate when this gopro seems to have it all, minus 4K60 superwide. But this will also be solvable with a wider lens either from gopro, or other third party. I'm really curious what Ulanzi and other parties will come up with for this camera. But 'till then there's the matter of issues from my first post. On paper, the camera looks good and it might be my first ever gopro. But I need reliability. I need to be sure that when I press the rec button, the camera will function as it's supposed to.

I have the same feeling. It would be a real breakthru if this Hero 9 works. My 6 and 7 used to freeze so regularly that I went to the DJI Osmo Action and never had a regret. I doubt this Gopro will be the expected marvel. They're just used to fool people and sell the same crap.
