    I realize it sounds like I'm saying DGI instead of DJI, but I promise it feels like I'm saying DJI... What do you guys think? Is the Action 3 the new King of Action Cameras in 2023?

    I'm not buying anything until they get it right. Both cameras are good but still not what I wanted yet. Most things are great but I'm looking for bokeh. I know asking for bokeh is too much for action camera. I'm also looking for much better Bluetooth microphone feature. As of now, it's not existed.

    I found your channel about 6 months ago when I first thought about getting an Action Camera. I had never heard of DJI Action Cameras at that time. But your first comparison vlog had me leaning towards DJI. I of course watched other vloggers comparing the same cameras. In the end, I finally decided to pull the trigger last week. For me this video is about 5 days to late, my camera will be here next Tuesday. I went for the DJI Osmo Action 3. Now I feel like I made the right decission!! The external microphones and the price where to 2 big factors for me. Thanks so much for your insightful videos. Moving on to deciding which accessory bundle to purchase and reviewing your video from last. Thanks again for your tutorials.

I also did a 1 hour+, indoor, 4k recording test and no had problems but still felt it might be unreliable. I have the original dji Action and am considering getting the Action 3. Not willing to buy any more GoPro cameras. Its amazing how dji entered this action camera game only recently (May 2019) and is now kicking GoPro's butt.

    This is an AWESOME NON-BIASED comparison! Excellent job! I've been looking at action cameras as I transition my KZread channel into more outdoors videos. I was pretty much sold on a GoPro. Names been around forever. I've heard whispers of unreliability but nothing major. Just happened to stumble on this video and glad I did. After watching, I've spent the last 4 hours digging and found SO MANY GOPRO RELIABILITY complaints! Thank you for pointing that out! I struggle with Tech sometimes. If I had gotten a GOPRO and it failed, I would have thought it was my fault. And beat myself up for not knowing how to fix it. I honestly can't thank you enough for making this video. You earned a lifelong subscriber here. And I'm definitely using your links to get a DJI P.S. Your sound, video quality, and edits are smooth and seamless. GREAT JOB!

    I had the GO system forever. I didn’t have the 11 but had 2 GP 10 and all the stuff. I use mine professionally and the over heating crashing and having to dismantle it from the mod to pull battery and reset was hard on production. I picked up the DJI 3 and after a month or two using it extensively I put all of my GP gear on CL. I took a bath on it, but better than it growing old in a drawer. For me the GP isn’t even close for me extreme needs.😎🤙

    Thanks for a rigorous and convincing evidence-based comparison! I have been using GoPros for several years now, mainly for underwater filming (including several frustrations with GoPros freezing up while underwater), so I had already figured from published specifications and reviews that the DJI Osmo Action 3 will be my next camera (or perhaps an updated version if it comes out in the meantime). I also have a small DJI drone, which is excellent and totally reliable. So you have now reinforced my decision!

    I had the gopro hero 5, 7, 8 and 10 over the years and I had issues with all of them. I sold those other cameras and decided to try the A3 and I have not had a single issue with that camera. Not only that, I am a mobile editor and I use luma fusion on my m2 ipad pro to edit my videos. When plugging the A3 into my ipad, the files app recognizes it as a drive and it makes transfering files that much easier. With the hero 10 I had to either go thru the gopro app or I had to do it thru the photos app and that was always an extra step I had to take which I didn't like. I also have the dji mic system and that has been flawless as well. I am very happy with my action 3 but I am curious with what the hero 12 will be like. Its a shame we are coming up to 12 generations of the heros and yet those cameras still have issues while DJI is 3 gens in and they have pretty much made the A3 near perfect (at least for what I use mines for).

    Thanks for a great comprehensive comparison between these two cameras! I'm SO GLAD you addressed the Overheating issue finally at 12:57! THIS is why I'm here, to see of the Osmo has any overheating issues...and you cleared it up for me, thank you!!! About 07:42 - Bugginess - I'm really surprised that I I didn't hear you say in THIS chapter about overheating (this is where I was first looking for your comments on overheating), because my GoPro 10 overheats EVERY SINGLE USE after 5-20 min at 4k60fps AND 30fps (NOT 120! I don't even bother with 120 since 30-60 is so bad!). To me, that is by FAR the BIGGEST bug of any GoPro in this range! And other KZreadr's videos show this as an issue with ALL gopros in this number range. BUT, that's why I'm looking to switch to the Osmo, because nobody says it ever overheats...right?

    David thanks for the video. Timely in my case. I have the DJI Osmo Action and I love it but I’m thinking I need to upgrade to the 3. First, I use it while cycling and I bought 3 1300mAh batteries to help extend battery life. I’m on the bike sometimes for 2-3 hours and the batteries just don’t last. DJI says that’s about as good as it gets for the Osmo Action. Second, I have a front and rear mount on my bike and it’s helpful to glance at my phone (also on a mount) to see what the camera sees, especially when using the rear mount. It’s very helpful to see traffics coming up from behind. The bugaboo is the battery and SD card indicator font is so small I can’t see it while riding. I asked DJI if font could be increased and they said no. No way I can do it on my iPhone 13 either. Don’t know if this would be any better with the Action 3 but thought I’d check with you to get your thoughts.

    I LOVE the GoPro 11 picture quality and I own 3, - one regular and two minis. I've had to return & exchange 2 different minis in less than 6 months due to battery issues. And even tho I'm a member and GoPro says that includes "No-questions-asked camera replacement," I was asked questions for a half hour or more each time! I deal with shut downs from over-heating regularly and often retrieve the camera and find that the last 20 minutes of awesome footage I believed I got does not exist because it shut down for one reason or another. When David said "BUGGINESS" I was like, "YES! EXACTLY!" I love these cameras even with their faults but I will be purchasing DJI from now on and use these GoPros if I specifically need the image quality the GoPros excel at (more contrast, saturation, and 5.3K). Also, David, it does sound like you are saying DGI instead of DJI but it literally sounds like that in every KZread video that anyone does for some reason, so don't sweat it.

    In your comparison and others, I definitely like GoPro video better (but, yes, it's not a huge difference). I recently upgraded to the Hero 11 from a 10, however if 1. I had not gotten the GoPro, with an extra battery, for $300 and 2. I didn't already have a bunch of GoPro accessories (including the dome, which wasn't cheap) and most important 3. I have not experienced the bugginess/overheating that so many other people have (don't know if it's just dumb luck or what I use it for, hopefully I haven't now jinxed myself for saying it), I would have went with the DJI, the connection system is so much more convenient, battery is way better, no bugginess, just better overall except for slightly lower video, and I have a DJI drone, which I love. Next upgrade I will probably switch to DJI, it just sucks when you have so much money invested in a brand that can't be used with another one. Oh well, the grandkids will be thrilled when they get a free GoPro 😁

    Time to redo this one already - Action 4. Can you please look at two additional scenarios? Scenario 1 - can both work externally powered without the batteries inside them? Scenario 2 - You'll need 4 cameras for this one; but can you pair two up (2 x DJI and 2 x GoPro) and control them with a remote control so that they start and stop video recording somewhat together? This is a multiple view of the same scene scenario where you want to start and stop the cameras together to capture the same scene. Scenario 3 - bonus scenario - do both have loop recording ability with said remotes, and here's the key, at what resolutions/frame rates (ideally all of them but I know GoPro doesn't work at all of them).

Also - a big tell which camera is which in the side-by-side's, is the distans to the object, the Gopro is much more "close-up" than the Action 3!

    Hi David, Some more thoughts to consider when buying either brand: - Accessories. Most people have GP as it’s been around for awhile so starting new means, they can be reused especially for GP9/10/11 like Media Mod, Cage, etc. Can’t do that with A1/2/3 so we need to factor this into the total cost to be fully objective than just entry price; and - Batteries. Stress test is nice but when I want continuous long form shooting both don’t cut it unless you use Volta or Ulanzi power banks + tripod legs and I don’t want to lug around extra batteries I will probably use so depends on your workflow; and - Image Quality. The devil is in the details and hands down, GP11 is better for me. Aside from this, we left the Elephant out of the room. What did DJI do for those who had the close focus quality issues? Like Gopro, nothing. Didn’t confirm or deny, just fixed it and kept quite to avoid lawsuits. So if you’re in that lot, I’m sure you will not be happy as well as the freezing issues over at Gopro. Both get thumbs down for this again trying to be fully objective for new buyers to know and now buy early models of A3. The other thing is that for vlogging, DJI exposes the subject and blows out the background when switching between say in the forrest and back to sunlight, while GP seem to balance between subject and background. Check for yourself so depends on your use cases. The other things not mentioned is photo quality, GPS, 8:7 to reframe portrait or landscape or re-crop, 360deg horizon lock in most shooting modes while DJI is limited to 2.7K. If these don’t matter in your workflow than DJI is the way to go; - TCO. Total cost of ownership, where accessories is one but the big one is between new models, there’s no backward or forward compatibility not consistent drive price. Meaning if you bought A1, it was good value for money and affordable. Then A2 was crazy high, completely different design, had overheating issues and got left behind after A3 was released, same chip and inside but repackaged but yet A3 got the 10bit upgrade, wtf DJI! And it cost way more than A3. So be like Sony and punish your loyal customers who spent more. Then you get the A3 which is more affordable but different design again. So if this trend stands and you upgrade, then expect A4 to cost more and a new design I myself couldn’t decide and got the A3 (and previous pissed off A2 buyer) in Jan’23 to avoid the quality close focus issues only because Gopro ecommerce couldn’t let me buy the GP11 working overseas for some reason so their loss. I’m a fan of tech so will load up where I can and both have major flaws and should go back to releasing every 2-3yrs so we get finished products instead of half baked ones and be guinea pigs and buy early and then get happy when they release firmware updates 3-6-9mos later when it should be there Day One. I’m waiting more eagerly on both ZV-E1 to arrive and the P3 to release as I don’t do extreme or underwater sports as much these days. Anyhow, good content as always and you covered most of the bases for new buyers to consider.

    I agree with the rest, however image quality is very subjective. Because the sharpness and quality is top notch on both. But unless you plan on uploading your footage straight after recording it. The DJI’s more neutral color tones makes it easier to edit and correct post production. GoPro is better without editing, DJI is definitely better with editing.

    Hey David- another great video!~ Hey what Go Pro model and accessories would you recommend for a First time GoPro user for someone who needs to capture FAST action Pets while you are the only one walking or training them? Looking and researching the best camera/accessories/clips/mics etc to use. these are working dogs and we need to showcase them, their performance, breeds, and do it all hands-free as sometimes there are often only 1 o2 of use working with them and no way to be doing this AND holding camera/phone while doing so. Thanks!

    So I don't own an action camera. If I were to buy one, I pick the Action 3. My fishing buddy uses a Gopro 9 (I think) that he mounts at the back of his flats boat and solo fish from the front of the boat. He turns on the recording on his GoPro with a remote control. I don't think the Action 3 has a remote control to turn on the Action 3 correct? Can you start recording using the external DJI mic you mention in your video? As always great comparison video David.

    Does the GoPro lock up issue still happen when using a scandisk extreme pro micro SD card? I like the GoPro look & recording quality more but it did look like it cropped the image in more. I like the idea of only recording once in the 8:7 & then having the option to edit in post. Having extra batteries is not a big issue for me as you could get the Volta also if required. Hopefully the version 12 will be more stable, better battery life, less over heating, a front touch screen, bigger rear screen, quick switch button & the option of using usb c mics directly without the media mod. I’m thinking of waiting until the GoPro 12 comes in September/October time

    Camera B. Hands down. Clarity & color alone. Watching on a 85” tv and I can see how much more of a difference it is. The GoPro is way clearer and colorful. Since it’s first priority and what it actually is a “camera” that’s what it should do best. Both companies have work to do. Great video David. Thanks!! So do I want a longer battery with poorer videos? Or superior video with less battery? Hmmm

    Everybody watches videos on a 85” tv, really, totally ridiculous evaluation and the differences are marginal at best. There also both designed as Action cameras, picture quality is not their priority, ease of use and reliability are, there the Action wins hands down. Want picture quality use a heavy pro camera such as an SLR.

    After using the Osmo Action 1 for yrs it was a no brainer for me to get the action 3. I just waited for 8 months for DJI to get some bugs out of it via firm ware updates. The Action 3 will go give GoPro a run for their money in the coming three yrs if they do the same with Action 3 as they did with the Action 1. Keep on improving via firmware upgrades instead of releasing a new GoPro every 12 to 18 months

    Good review. I preferred the footage from the GP but TBH it was close. One point that I wish you would have addressed is the toughness of the cameras. I understand why you may not want to test this. I've seen GP take ridiculous falls, like from airplanes and still function. The wireless microphone system is better on the DJI. I use GP while riding motorcycles and they have never overheated, probably due to airflow. I will look into the DJI for my next camera but I don't need to buy anytime soon since what I have still works great.

    I love my GP 11 and I stress the hell out of it. I have broken several GoPro in the past and I gotta say, their “insurance” program is way better than DJI and that is the selling point for me. I don’t have to worry about breaking my camera while scuba diving, which is my main activity with it. I’ve had replaced 3 cameras with 0 fee. I’m based in Costa Rica and covering the shipping it has never been a problem for GoPro. While DJI, has always giving me headaches in regards to their warranty and insurance programs since I am not in the USA. Both cameras are amazing, it all comes to personal preference and what matters the most for you.
