Hmm, looks like there is more distortion in the lens.... I am used to seeing the person in the middle of the frame look fairly normal, but the edges distorted. This looks like the actual center of the frame is also distorted....Hmmm

I can't wait until this gopro comes out. always wanted one but I decided to wait instead now there's something new and price wise is similar to older generation gopro when first came out. looked at many of its competitors(action cam) out there and it doesn't compared to what go can offer as of quality and durability with all the accessories.

Awesome cam, I´m looking for a new one but the new Garmin VIRB Ultra 30 has build in GPS and can create an overlay with information about speed and things like that i can really take advantage of in my motorsport videos. I´m a bit sad that GoPro hasn´t come up with that because with GPS I may would buy it. To the garmin i also can connect a heartrate sensor and show it in the overlay too.

Unique voice control? But what garmin virb ultra 30?
He is also the voice control. And he went out early.

[fishycomics]

so we speak to the camera it will obey our command, what about a bluetooth mic the RC should be exactly that.. mic and voice command in one! I feel the Session will be the popular seller.

i'm sorry but I was hoping for 4k60fps. the image stabilisation is cool and all, but I'll wait till next year

[markorebernik]

Are the body dimensions the same as Hero 4? I have a gimbal, that hugs the gopro. If it fits into my Feiyu Tech WG, I'm getting one.

[BassPlayerAvailable]

Is the HELICOPTER noise still present though?

[brotherboy]

How deep can you go with GoPro hero 5 black and hero 5 session

[luismiguellunapais]

Thats nice but before you have the box to protect the camera now you don't.

i want a vloging camerwaterproof but not 360

Voice control - they better add the option to change default signal phrase "Gopro, do X" to whatever you want. For example, "HAL, do X" or "Yo, do X", etc. I imagine a group of people with GoPros distracting each other with voice commands aimed for the same phrase starter "GoPRo".

I was expecting a gyroscop functionality for the next gopro generation. Maybe the gopro6?

[aureusphoenix]

What about scuba diving? Will there be a housing for that? Or does it withstand 40m?

[chancejohnson]

The comparison of the stabilization is no different it looks like but I have a go pro five black and it works extremely well good job gopro

[GriffinKerwin]

What about resolution!!!?!?!?! And FPS?

[AndreasBatsilas]

Ok, time to sell anything i dont use at my room to get this with a karma!

[anisapurnamasari]

How does the Hero 5 compare with the Hero 4? Is it worth upgrading?

[nothingness]

so there is just no point to upgrade from 3-4 models, I see.
