The term “GoPro” has become an eponym for action cameras as a whole, like “Coke,” “Kleenex,” and “Band-Aid” before it. Sure, there are plenty of other sports camera brands for sale in 2023, but none that come close to matching the feature set of GoPro. And after reviewing the GoPro Hero 12 Black, a feature-packed 5.3K camera, I can tell you that the brand keeps finding new ways to top itself.
The GoPro Hero 12 Black released Sept. 13, 2023, and it’s available for via GoPro and Amazon. The Hero 12 promises drastically better battery life, improved video stabilization, a new wide-angle lens accessory, and new tools for content creators — including vertical capture, which lets you record vertical-frame video for TikTok and Instagram Reels.
GoPro shared its new camera with me for testing ahead of its release, and so far I’ve been very impressed. After spending a few weeks with the newest GoPro camera, I definitely think it’s worth the upgrade for most people (with a couple of notable exceptions).
