Hi GoPro, can i use hero 9/10 case or accesories on hero 11? are they on the same size?

[@JordanHetrick]

@@ItsMeCrist Hi Noxus, Yes, the Hero 11 is exactly the same body as the 9 and 10, so all of the accessories are compatible. 👍👏

Hey Guys, I hope you like the video! Please let me know what questions you have and how you are liking the Hero 11. Also, just so you are aware, I've heard there are some trolls out there trying to scam people by impersonating me. 😐 I am not doing any giveaways and will never ask for anything from you. Be safe, be aware and take care. Thanks so much for watching!

[@justme-bb4qt]

Pretty cool video, I just switched from gp7 to the 11, already have the quick app, now with the 11 when I download the videos to my phone I can't watch them, only audio. It will play the videos on the app but not on the regular photo gallery app on my android. Any idea how to fix this issue?

As a first time go pro user who was gifted the Hero 11 Black, I just want to say Thank you Jordan for being so clear and to the point with this guide. My go pro case was a bit different tho, the casing was entirely black and it had a head mount too. Going to Indonesia tomorrow and can’t wait to use it there for the first time. Thanks a lot mate:)

Hi Jordan. Many thanks for a great overview. Also your book. I did a quick ‘refresher’ by going through it and one thing I’m kicking myself for not ever doing it was your suggestions for profiles. REALLY handy tip.

[@JordanHetrick]

Thanks Ian! Yes, it's really a huge timesaver (and mind saver). I feel lost when my presets aren't in order.

[@smjadav]

You're a lifesaver. First time GoPro (any for that matter, any action camera) user here. I got frustrated because I couldn't find the Night Timelapse mode. I kept checking the basic video settings. After watching your video, I realised I got to click on the Time Lapse mode to find the other modes 😅 I felt I might have received a fake Gopro 11. You saved my local dealer a nasty phone call from me 😂

[@JordanHetrick]

Hi Swapnil, Thanks so much for the comment and congrats on your first GoPro. The menus can definitely be a bit confusing at first, but you'll get the hang of it. Happy to hear that I helped solve your mystery!

Very clear and easy to follow video. I was gifted the 11 black this Christmas and as a first time go-pro user there is so much more to them than the cheap action cameras which is great as long as you can figure it out. I’m very excited to start recording with it this winter. :)

[@JordanHetrick]

Awesome to hear! I'm really happy that you liked it! Yes, GoPro cameras really do produce much higher quality than the knockoffs when you use them right. Have fun out there this winter with your new camera.👍

Thank you very much for the easy steps.

@@JordanHetrick no thank you for making this video I really am not in any way a tech guy .I know nothing about cameras in general. I have a KZbin channel with 3,000 subscribers and I'm growing so I wanted to get the best of the best. And when I saw GoPro 11 Creator edition I figured that's perfect for me because I'm sick and tired of my phone zooming in and out and going Auto zooming. So I figured I would drop a lot of money and become professional. So thank you for helping me understand GoPros and learning the right way.
