Of GoPro's recent releases, it's the Hero 7 Black that's the flagship model and the one hat will put the GoPro name back in the spotlight.
The biggest talking point is the Hypersmooth feature, one of the more revolutionary breakthroughs in the company's history. GoPro call it "the best in-camera video stabilisation in any camera, ever” and when you see 4K/60fps mode footage using the Hypersmooth feature, it is hard to argue against that claim.
Think of standard time-lapse, where a camera takes frequent still shots and plays them back in a somewhat stilted and choppy sequence. Now think of a major leap forward: a super smooth, stabilized time lapse video allowing for a silky progression through a scene. That's what Time Warp delivers.
The Hero 7 Black is it is the first GoPro capable of livestreaming to sites like Facebook, Vimeo and YouTube, with more sites due to come online.
The SuperPhoto feature is GoPro’s response to intelligent auto modes on smartphones which apply the right camera settings by automatically recognising certain scenes. It’s made even easier thanks to Voice Control, which responds to 16 different commands including "GoPro, take a photo".
That's the challenge laid down by GoPro. They are certainly talking up the toughness of the Hero 7 Black; it's a device that can handle the rough and tumble of the intense action its capturing, while it is waterproof down to an impressive 10 metres.

Wow, what a total disappointment! I use these primarily on a motorcycle helmet when riding offroad. The first one locked up completely while filming 2.7/60, so I exchanged it for a new one. Second one also locks up, this past weekend after only 6.5 minutes of shooting video!! SIX MINUTES!!
Buen producto pero pensa en sumar un mont?3n de accesorios. M?-nimo, otra bater?-a y cargador dual.
Compact; Good Video Quality; Lightweight
Poor Batery
One of Go Pro's best cameras yet & a good bundle from Vistek
I purchased 5 months ago and haven't been disappointed with the purchase. I use it daily as a simple dash cam for my driving commute. The Video & Image quality is very good. The camera is very easy to learn and use. The voice controls work great. If you need to shot extended videos.
We purchased this for our son to take on holiday to the Reef. Cool little camera. You need to buy a few things to really get it going i.e. SD Card, waterproof case, tripod, extra battery, bag etc. Works really well and we captured some special moments. Just note that it is very temperamental, stalled at the worst of times i.e. froze and we had to take the battery out and turn back on. It does run out of battery super quick so you do need to take a spare with you all the time. All in all it is a great start for a first GoPro purchase, but I probably should have got a later model.
After one year on the market, the GoPro Hero 7 Black is still one of the best action cameras that you can find right now. The rugged body is filled-up with top-notch features. While HyperSmooth provides gimbal like video stabilization, TimeWarp allows you to take outstanding super-smooth timelapse...

Expensive (many cheaper options);; Can get very hot when recording 4K;; No frontal live-view screen;; Sometimes UI become unresponsive.
Mashable Choice highlights the best of everything we cover, have experienced first-hand and would recommend to others. Just when I thought there were no more meaningful ways to improve an action camera, GoPro goes and releases the new Hero 7 Black .
Crazy smooth video stabilization; Easier-to-use touchscreen UI; Vertical video capture; Super simple sharing to Instagram Stories
No real battery improvement; Low-light footage is a little soft
Ever wondered why GoPro's flagship camera is called "the Black" but has always been silver or gray Well, with the Hero 7, the company has righted that wrong. Cognitive dissonance aside, there are a few other things fixed with this year's update, but the big question is: Are they the issues that...
GoPro's latest action camera delivers impressively smooth footage while introducing other welcome features like livestreaming and an enhanced time-lapse mode for an attractive price.
Shoots impressively smooth video; Improved touch controls on viewfinder; TimeWarp feature takes great time-lapse videos; Sharp 4K videos; Great price for a full-featured action camera
Livestreaming could use some tweaks; Fast charging requires you to buy a separate accessory; Still images can be hit-or-miss
The new flagship star of GoPro's action camera range, the Hero 7 Black replaces 2017's excellent Hero 6 Black . We described that camera as "the best action cam you can buy today" and the fundamentals here remain the same.
Superb image stabilisation; Improved audio quality; Impressive video and decent stills; Waterproof without needing a case; Huge range of mounts and accessories; Now offers livestreaming
Can get very hot when recording 4K; Occasionally sluggish or unresponsive UI; Still relatively expensive
