GoPro: which model is best?
There are a lot of GoPro cameras available, from the brand new GoPro Hero12 Black, back to the Hero8 Black. You might find it difficult choosing the right one for you.
Most GoPro models you can find now, back to the Hero8 Black, will shoot 4K/60p footage, although the GoPro Hero9 Black onwards will shoot higher resolutions of 5.3K/60p. If all you want is a rugged 4K action camera, an older model might be best for you as you might not need all the additional features of newer models.
The older the model, the cheaper it'll be, but the less features you'll get. You'll also only get earlier versions of autofocus and image stabilization systems. You can read our best GoPro cameras guide to see all the specs laid out in a table to help you decide.
In essence, you just need to balance your budget with what features you actually want and need.
There are a couple of exceptions, though. The first is the GoPro Hero11 Mini, which packs most of the Hero11 Black's features into a compact body for when size is a concern. And there's the GoPro Max, which is a 360 camera designed to take immersive 360 degree footage. Choose these cameras if you need either of those things specifically.
How to get the best deal on a GoPro
Because there are so many older models still available, you need to tread carefully when looking for GoPro deals. That's because many retailers are showing discounts from the original list prices of older GoPros. For example, you might see $150 off an older GoPro's original price. This may look like a good deal but that camera might be years old and won't have sold at its list price for a while.
It's especially tricky for the two latest models though, the Hero12 Black and Hero11 Black. GoPro dropped the list price of the Hero12 Black to $399 — that's $100 cheaper than the Hero11 Black was at launch. That means the newer model is starting much cheaper, so the deals have to be insanely good on the older model to compete (which we aren't really seeing).
The best deals on newer GoPros right now are found on the newest GoPro Hero12. We're seeing GoPro slash $50 off the list price before Black Friday has even begun, but even more savings can be had on accessories bundles. We're currently seeing similar prices on Hero12 Black and Hero11 Black accessories bundles — why would you go with the older model?
If you're not after the latest features, the Hero9 Black can be had for under $200, and the Hero10 Black for under $250. If you really can't manage the extra $100-150 outlay for a Hero12 Black, these are still very capable cameras.
