Are GoPro's worth it, or is the latest smartphone camera good enough for the average user? Let's compare the new GoPro HERO 10 vs iPhone 13 Pro ultra-wide camera system, 5K vs 4K video, low-light, slow-motion, photography, audio samples, and more!

Interesting comparison for sure! But I'm not strapping an iphone to my helmet, or plunging it into the ocean. I think if you are going to pick an iphone ove a GoPro, then you didn't really need an action camera in the first place.

Have both (12 Pro Max). The GoPro is for when it’s too risky/impractical/niche to use an iPhone. The iPhone is for everything else. Just take both with you since they can fit in your pockets. The best cam is the one that’s always with you.

I guess having both options are better. Iphone 13's features are awesome enough to do daily vlogging as it has the stability, sharpness and quality needed. But if it calls for some action like watersports, bunjee jumping and tracking, it's best to have an action camera on the side as it more handy and is built for these kinds of activities.

You wouldn't want to have your $1000 iPhone 13 attached on your head while bunjee jumping, would you??

The go pro wins in areas that you will only use a GoPro for (rough fast movements) the iPhone wins in areas where you only use iPhone for (very low light - no one uses their GoPro at night).

Personally I went for the GoPro, main reason is my kids. I can hand them that and all they have to do is press one button it comes to life and records immediately. The stabilizer is the best thing for shaky kid videos. Insta360 would be nice but battery life and internal memory was not enough for all the videos they make. Also it's big enough not to get lost in the couch 😅.

One thing you didn't test: how does the iPhone preform in the rain and/or under water? The HERO 10 has a hydrophobic coating in the lens cover that seems to work well in the rain. Just a thought.

At the end of the day I'd still use the GoPro even if it didn't have the best video. Utilizing a phone like this is just bulky on the front of my bike. I've also used my GoPro in the water. Last time I tried that with my phone it went bananas like you were pressing the buttons.

I bought my first action camera two weeks ago and it is Go 2. I’m happy with it. Much easier to start shooting than with my iPhone. Also I am satisfied with quality, their app and opportunity to correct video after shooting.

Since pretty much everyone has a smartphone, the GoPro is a really addition for more versatility and footage variety. If you like doing videos, get a GoPro

Bro I loved the comparison. I found your video really a genuine opinion of yours, no biasness

[SeanOzz]

For a vlog at Disney a phone is great but for snowboarding or some other action gopro is a must.

[mdjak]

Excellent video yet again. And while there was no question in my mind the iPhone would be better, when I ride my Can-Am X3 RC through the woods, I’m slapping my GoPro to the roof, definitely not my iPhone.

Can't wait for the Apple Action Camera version 😁

Great testing, both these new cameras do a great job. And I do tend to prefer the iPhone 13 Pro for all around photos and video quality. But remember why the GoPro was first invented, because it's much more rugged than other cameras. That it still the GoPro's biggest advantage. Thanks for sharing Ben.

Hi there, i was wondering if you could integrate a colorchecker card into your comparison videos because it's difficult to tell which product is rendering colors closer to the real thing. thanks . 👍

I’ve been waiting for this episode so many days!!

[fanlemei]

hey dude, i'm waiting for your vers series between iphone 14 and others .. can't wait for that ~

[HenriqueTavares]

It is a fair comparison for the technology and resolution but I think both are going to survive for way longer. They purpose are different.

[amospakhuongte]

Just for taking video i prefer GoPro Hero 10 but with all other stuff i prefer I phone 13pro
