Tested: GoPro Hero8 Black vs DJI Osmo Action!

DJI Osmo Action: amzn.to/2WHUUgW GoPro Hero8 Black: amzn.to/2wI60aZ Disclaimer: Tested may earn an affiliate commission when you buy through the links here. Both cameras were sent to us for review by DJI.

[@carsmcstudios]

I think that this review was a bit biased towards the GoPro, the Osmo Action's advantages were understated and GoPro's disadvantages are almost ignored. Such as the terrible wind reduction audio, the significantly worse screen sizes, the non-removeable lens, and the terribly engineered battery compartment. And to top it all off, the Osmo Action is also significantly cheeper and you don't need to spend a whole lot of money on accessories. I think some people are just biased becuase they are used to the GoPro and just look past any other option.

[@eskimo4130]

Gopro has strong marketing. From what i can tell the firmware updates are way more regular on the Osmo which is good. I think Gopro are just interested in selling on their brand name now and don't really care about innovation.

[@carsmcstudios]

@@eskimo4130 True, innovation is not their no.1 priority now. DJI on the other hand is still quite competitive and putting out the best features they can

[@eskimo4130]

@@carsmcstudios Apart from the wider FOV on the Black 8, i'm leaning towards picking up the Osmo. Audio, battery, user interface, hardware, longevity, so many things that seem to win for me. Glad i didn't just throw my money at Gopro without thinking.

[@PatricksBreastplate]

I actually thought he was gonna go with the Osmo. Seemed to favour it on colour, UI and a few other things.

[@nifengshan]

so what Trump will ban OSMO soon! national security！

6:21 In the running shot, DJI Osmo Action is getting a clearer overall image. There is some kind of haze on GoPro

[@QueenAddison]

I had a gopro 7 and being able to replaced the broken/scratchedup lens was a huge bonus. They break SUPER EASY. The fact that you cant replaced it on the gopro 8 will be the reason that I will NEVER buy a gopro 8. That's just dumb

[@JonS]

The glass on the HERO8 is twice as thick, so it's quite a bit harder to break than in the HERO7.

[@mrnumbskull2048]

@@JonS What happens if you scratch it?

[@JonS]

@@mrnumbskull2048 Then you probably need to get it repaired

[@ST-ry7lr]

@@JonS GoPro has already said that they are not able to repair a broken lens on these cameras due to the way the camera is designed. They also cannot repair the camera if the built in fork hinge on the bottom breaks. They just dropped the price by $100, but I would still buy the Hero 7.

[@JonS]

@@ST-ry7lr The folding finger plate is held on by screws and can be user replaced. gopro.com/en/us/shop/mounts-accessories/replacement-folding-fingers/AJMFR-001.html A broken lens can be "repaired" (actually a replacement camera is provided) with a GoPro Plus subscription. Sure it's not as cheap and instant as putting old a replacement on H7B, but it's an option.

[@alastairmackay4589]

Amazing features packed into both of these tiny cameras, but such a difference between your unedited footage and the ‘tweaked’ final cuts. Proves how edited the beautiful GoPro adverts are. Ultimately, they’re tiny cameras with tiny lenses and sensors - you can’t expect miracles.

[@viejomonstro]

I've watched lots of review videos and this was one of the best side by side videos I've seen. Super informative and fun to watch. Thanks

[@theboogeyman1100]

Which one do you prefer?

[@SailingYachtZora]

I actually use my osmo action for full time vlogging because it's so small, image quality is fine for the tube and the mic is fine too. Thanks for the review

[@michaelsams450]

I really enjoyed this comparison. It will be interesting to see where DJI takes the Osmo Action over the next iteration or two. I hope GoPro has enough sense to go back to a replaceable lense cover in the next version.

[@Al4beef]

Will you guys try to build those "open source" ventilators? They were made to be built with accessable items from hardware stores

[@SegginsProductions]

Joey videos are always some of my favorites!

[@Kelkschiz]

Same here, and the rest of the team is pretty awesome as well :)

[@johns818]

Gopro sent him more money.. I have both and the Hero 8b is a hot mess.. as in it literally overheats with anything above 1080/60. The lens cannot be replaced.. GTA 5 color grading limits options in post.. atrocious battery life.. battery swells after few uses.. weak lower mount lets camera twist.. please guys dont waste your money. Dji Osmo has given me ZERO issues and you can record all day in 4k 60 if you desire. The Osmo beats the H8 in every category except low light conditions. For $260 its a no brainer.

[@lonerider68]

Could you share some of the footage you've taken with the GoPro/DJI. I didn't see any uploaded videos attached to your account? I've had a Hero 8B for a few months now and I have had it overheat on me once... and that was in like 85F weather after 30+ minutes when I was kind of overheating myself in the summer sun. Battery life is not great, but I usually just connect my H8 to an external battery pack. My battery hasn't swelled yet. I have had some issue with the GoPro tilting when I didn't want it two... I attribute that to the stock thumbscrew. I bought one with bigger "wings" and that makes it easier to crank down. Aside from that I'm overall happy with the H8, but it definitely isn't perfect... so I'm interested in seeing what other people are using.

[@johns818]

@@lonerider68 Are you insinuating that I am lying because I dont post footage?? I use cameras for work.. not youtube. On the other hand.. I clicked on your account, and you have multiple videos titled "GOPRO Tips" - LMFAO X10 the bias is real guys!!!! So I guess in your world.. anyone who comments must include video proof for their point to be valid??!!! Hey comment section STFU until you post "proof" bc Lonerider said so.. And How do I know if that is Gopro footage on your account?? How do I know you didn't film with a different camera and just say it was a Gopro??? Do you have footage of you filming with the gopro in 3rd person??? I mean who even knows if all the Gopro footage on the web is actually from Gopros?? Its funny bc even a simple google search will pull up 100s of threads regarding battery swell and over heating issues.

[@WETiLAMBY]

James Stewart that was so immensely uncalled for, how pernicious can you be?

[@MelissaAndAlex]

I just returned my 8 because first time using it in water got tons of water in the lense.

[@johns818]

@DatingHawk.com If you're familiar with video editing and color grading... 100% choose the DJI Osmo for its raw video format... when properly graded the footage will always look better regardless of resolution. Please be mindful that the majority of the 1080p Hero 8 and Osmo Action footage you see on youtube is most likely shot in 4k and down sampled to 1080 as it should. If you want nothing to do with color grading in post and plan on only shooting in 1080p, then the Hero 8 might be the better choice as the footage comes enhanced straight out of the camera. But this also adds to the heat issues I mentioned in my earlier post.. adding that "gopro color" requires additional processing duties (in real time) from the camera which strains the processor, making it impossible to {consistently} shoot 4k/30 with stabilization on without it overheating. Most Important: Do not skimp on your Micro SD Card.. make sure the card you're using is rated: U3 / V30

[@Znybar]

Ignored battery life, and numbers of buttons. Both of those are really important for using these in more extreme environments where the touchscreen isn't usable or when you want to avoid opening the battery compartment (rain or in seawater). The osmo creams the GoPro in that department.

[@matthewlewis6477]

I have the Osmo. I love it so far. I prefer to have the flatter color to begin with in post. The deal breaker for me with the GoPro was the non-removable lens. If it gets scratched, you can't replace the lens. It is an action camera, you have to expect the abuse. So, if I scratch it I don't want to have to replace the entire unit. As for the mount system, how long will the tabs on the GoPro hold up before breaking? Another thing I couldn't risk. They are both great cameras, but I will stick with my Osmo for now.

[@MikesFoggyIdea]

Hmm, tough choice. I like the the wind reduction and the light streak reduction on the Osmo a little better though.

[@JonS]

The light streaks he's seeing on the GoPro is due to grease on the cover glass. He needed to clean it.

[@JLBREMER]

Good viewpoints !! I have a lot of cameras and also a Hero 7 Black. Just bought the Osmo Action today because it’s on sale for $259 with 2 free batteries and charger from Best Buy. Figured since Djis products are so much fun and intuitive I’d give it a shot. Right off the bat filming with both I notice what you were saying with the color. I think I enjoy Osmos cinematic look better than Go Pros saturated color. Guess they both have a time and place. But that front screen is nice tho.

[@jadebeast100]

The Osmo Action just went on sale and I feel like they are gearing to release another iteration, what do you think the likelihood of that is?

[@CallipHall]

Fathers Day Sale... but eventually there will be a new one.

[@Voltis-5]

I'd wait. Knowing they always come out with a new one almost every year I just wait for these kinda stuff.

[@lomarvgc1580]

I heard somewhere dji release a product every 2 years to maybe next year

[@eskimo4130]

Best review of these i've seen, and i've seen quite a few. Most reviews are from amateurs who don't really understand all the settings. However i still need to find out more about these before making a choice, as there were a few topics not mentioned. So thanks for a great video :)

[@allisallaboutthedog6103]

I really appreciated this video because i have never had a camera like these and its great to see a side by side comparison. For me i like the dji picture quality better AND thanks to your links in the description i see the price point is better on the DJI. I like the idea on the DJI that you may be able to change filters although i dont know if they sell any. Does the special mounting case come with the DJI when you purchase or do you have to buy that separate. I like that there is a screen on the front camera cause thats something i find i need. But i am wondering and ill have to re watch again which one will be easier for me to edit because im a little challenged in that department using only my Phone right now to edit and load to youtube. Thanks for doing this video

[@Manetty6]

OMFG! a north american who use an android phone! :O the dji camera looks great. has much better audio and the lack of the lens flare is great. also you can change the filter if it get scratched. only place I didn't like the image quality was at 9:30. cool review.

[@ArcticExploring]

I have Osmo Action and I love it. Do make a descent video you need ND-filters, and it's really fast to switch between different ND-filters out while riding.

[@peterkelley6344]

Fun review. Thanks for the information. Keep the reviews coming!

[@matt22blaster]

8:48 yeah, the case to attach the front facing screen is $80. The screen will probably be $120. I'm about to send this pos back. I'm furious I have to drop another $80 for this case to have HDMI if I want to live stream. Its been on every other GoPro and they removed it, only to charge me an outrageous price to have the capability on the back end. Last dime GoPro gets from me. DJI here I come.

[@c0pyimitati0n]

But were you using a _flat_ profile on the GoPro or did you use "gopro color" ??

[@K4g4m1]

Great review. Good information that's easy to understand for a layman and no unnecessary filler content.

[@tossedsalad1532]

I opted for the DJI back before the Hero 8 was available. I'm still happy because I don't use it as an action cam, but rather when I need a camera to fit in places my DSLR and choady lens just cant. Plus the IBIS really is top notch!

[@robertnunziata2950]

I would like to hear your thoughts on value for money spent

[@nathanvrvrt]

Dji is definetly better because its cheaper and when you break the front glass you can replace it very cheap while for gopro 8 you need to buy a whole new camera

I liked the sound on the DJI the best.Great Video.

[@sreejithtechpro9630]

This is one of the best comparison I viewed

[@cheeznhard]

[@qiangli4022]

After watching a whole video, I still didn't get why you pick the gopro over dji. Is it b/c of the cage? Cuz that's the only con you mentioned, right?

[@YvesLendl]

I know! loool. I was surprised he picked gopro after all the cons he mentioned. hahaha. biased perhaps? Too bad, The video was nice, but kinda lame conclusion. A bit unfair and dishonest if you ask me.

[@qiangli4022]

Yves P. I got the dji after watching this video. I love it so far.

[@YvesLendl]

@@qiangli4022 wow. Really? Tell me the pros and cons so far. I wanna use it mainly for traveling and adventures like scuba diving, snorkeling etc. Wanna have something with good video quality in these circumstances... 😎

[@qiangli4022]

Yves P. So far I’m satisfied with the image quality. I used it when running and also took some timelapse and timed shots of the recent thunderstorm. I left it outdoors at night so I don’t have to risk my dslr. The results came out really good. Being able to switch between screens is really a bonus. Gone are the days I have to squeeze myself into those awkward corners to check what’s in frame using a gopro. I was never a fan of having to use my phone as a wireless monitor. I don’t own a gopro8, probably never will. So no comparison there. I do think gopro may have an edge in stabilization though.

While the comparison between the 2 action cameras was excellent ... it was at times difficult to tell if it was a comparison between the action cameras or a comparison between action cameras and your studio equipmen. In which case its like comparing a mini with a Ford Raptor

[@ChuckHaney]

One thing I didn't hear you mention was price. Considering that DJI is "close," saving $50 to $130 depending on where you shop, may be the deciding factor for some people.

[@tonyarce5427]

There was a big software update with many improvements for the osmo since you recorded the footage. Obviously it doesn’t change many of the nit picky things you found with it b

[@MrJonFinger]

These were fun to test out 🤘

[@1lifeonearth]

i got a brand new gopro 8 black, first thing i did was update the firmware. the update failed. Now the gopro is completely bricked. Fuck Gopro.

[@dannybracken6982]

Thanks. I have been wanting to buy one . your video helped me make a choice.

[@JonS]

The flare ("crazy line") you're getting around lights is caused by grease on the cover lens. Either that, or DJI ran some fine grit garnet sandpaper across the lens before sending it to you. Try cleaning the glass with alcohol and a lens cloth and see what you get. This is not the behavior of a HERO8Black with a clean lens. As for the stabilization performance, the Osmo crops the field of view more. That's clearly visible in your side by side stabilization sequence. If you use "Boost" with HyperSmooth, you get about the same field of view as the Osmo, but with better stabilization.

[@abhishrek47]

A lot of things you said about pull and push techniques for GoPro were so much on point. Something I was searching for, from a KZbinr all this while. Definitely DJI Osmo Action looks the way to go. Thanks.

[@Ciangi87]

[@citizengar]

Great comparison video, thanks! I have the DJI Osmo camera and I love it. I am tired of the cages, too. I had the YI 4K+ action camera and I loved their design on that camera. It had a universal mounting screw slot so you didn't have to use a cage or thumb screws. I wish these two action camera monsters would do the same thing with their design.

[@youlovelover9856]

Hi Thanks for the comparison, I just watch your video while running, the stabilization of osmo is little bit smooth than Gopro8, have you update this two cameras before blogging

[@jaygolden4218]

Nice review...whats the better value? The DJI is now $260 and comes with extra battery and charging kit.

[@georgerundt6375]

Great review, just wish you touched on the GPS. I have both cam's and find the Gopro being used more often for the telemetry information since the DJI has no gps. It's nice to pull that info and see where and when you have been to places you would like to find again or share. I use these cams for hiking and Motorcycle rides. Thanks again.

[@aberkankorkmaz]

I decided to buy my first action cam. Hero8 is $150 more expensive than Action in my country. Is it worth to go for extra? BTW we have Sony A7 III and 2x Sony a6500 and osmo pocket, so I only use action for mounting a car and take some shots (indoor outdoor shots) , nothing serious motion and I will use cinelike for colors.

[@Hakudog5]

Honestly...if I was considering one of the new action mini-cameras....I'd heavily consider the Insta360 One R twin package. Heavily configurable, has all the stuff the Hero 8 and Osmo have, but you can put a full 360 degree camera module in it too. So basically...you get the full functionality of a normal action camera and a 360 camera for much less then buying one of each. Also...for the sensor snobs...there is a 1 inch sensor module for the One R that does MUCH better in low light and has 5.3k resolution. The screen part of the camera is flippable, so you can use it in selfie mode or standard mode. Its only real downside is it has the cage but if you wanna take it more then a few yards/meters under water you need to buy a housing for it, and each mode (4k standard camera, 360 camera, and 1inch sensor) needs its own housing since they don't work with each other (each housing is $60-80 dollars depending which one you get). 4k only version is very comparable and competitive with the Go Pro 8 and DJI Osmo at $299. The twin edition that comes with the 4k module and the 360 module is $479 currently. The 1 inch module version is kinda spendy at $549...but its in a class of its own so they can kind of get away with it. Adding the 360 module brings it to $750... but its a great combo. Definitely worth checking out IMHO. No affiliation... I've just been looking at a new action cam and that one came up as a very viable option.

[@gevangart2714]

Super professional and helpfull! Thanks soooo much! You covered all of the aspects! Tace care!🤗

[@mattvmani]

So the summary is: DJI Better wind filtering. Better image for post editing. Better interface. Replaceable lens. Easier battery and sd removal. Cheaper price. Front facing screen. Worse low light performance. Camera cage. Less pleasing image without edits. GoPro Better unedited image. No cage needed. Better stabilization. Better low light performance. Worse battery and sd configuration. Worse interface. No replaceable lense. Worse wind suppression. More expensive. Worse post edit image. I don’t know if I missed a part of the video but, I don’t know how the overall preference is the go pro. If image impression matters the most then it’s clearly the go pro. Also as interesting is this is GoPros latest in a series of cameras and it’s not even a clear cut winner depending on your needs. This is DJI Action cam number 1. That’s a lot of expense go pro users have been through if they’ve ever upgraded their camera. I bought a DJI recently given their sale price with extra batteries. It seems nice so far. If I need the go pro image pop that can easily be edited in. But happy purchases whichever you buy. If the go pro was cheaper I think I would have bought it.

For a new be like myself, which would be easiest for posting with little to no editing at all? I do a lot of trail riding with RC trucks and it honestly don't need the most fancy so my mind goes for the cheaper one but if it's going to cause problem I want to know.

[@GlenEdwards]

I find it hard to swallow your final comment that you personally would choose the GoPro, you listed many factors that you liked much better about the DJI: Rear Screen size, menu operations, colour processing, lens cover, no lens flare from lights. The only one thing you liked more about GoPro was the flip down mount. I don’t get your stand there. For me the DJI is currently $80 cheaper so it’s hard to see the GoPro being worth it.

[@gregsempsrott1281]

Great review. I just ordered the DJI action cam after watching your review and here's why. It appeared from your video in the GoPro with the fold down mounting system being part of the body if that mount were to break, what then? And the other Factor being price. Still a great review though thanks.

[@AlpineTrails]

I must say that you're decision to opt for the GP8 if you had to buy one surprised me. And I would honestly like a hybrid of the two but since that is not possible, I went for the Osmo. Yes I wish I had the wider angle, though I suspect that can be fixed in future updates from DJI. Apart from that, is not much I like at the GP. The mount idea is good but that plastic is garbage man. ( no offence) It's an action cam.. it will break in no time. If they really wanted it a no case camera, which I agree is pretty much time to happen, it needs to have a screw type solid mount similar to Insta. The non replaceable lens is a deal breaker. Once scratched that camera is RIP. And no matter how tough the glass is, it will happen. Especially if you do climbing. I once dropped my camera, it sided on the floor and hit my ice axe pick right with the lens. While the colours are more vibrant and might understand while would appeal to the general public, most of the time is Orange.. like in really orange. Why would someone want that? So unnatural, especially when filming people. Battery life worse than the DJI. Accessories a lot more expensive. Needs specific micro Sd cards to work. Known long history of freeze, random shut down, etc. For Action, I cannot understand why someone would think that's a good camera. I'd rather buy the Hero7 which apart from the IS, is superior. And that's software which would have been an easy firmware upgrade. Of course this is a subjective opinion and I do appreciate you're effort to make the video which was quite good.

Hi, I don't know how was stabilization changed in Osmo, I had bought Osmo action in September last year, but I had to return it to the shop ! Stabilization was a joke> recording videos on bike ride without shaking was impossible ! ( mounted on head helmet or chest), with gopro7 no problem ! I am mountain biker / but not aggressive rider, so if u want recording your walk/ no problem then Osmo is maybe for you, but really not for action :)
