    By far the best video on the Hero 9 that is out to date!! No one else mentioned that metal lens mount-in the long run, that’s the killer feature! When I heard about the super wide I didn’t care, it’s plenty wide now!! But a 1X, 2X or even 5X would be fantastic!! GoPros main competition for the average user is a smartphone, these updates push it way over the top against them: legitimate action cam, better stabilization, now a long lens, all in a smaller size.

    I just received my Hero9 this morning, upgrading from the Hero8. For me there were enough changes (large and small) to justify the upgrade. #1 by far is the removable lens. #2 is the addition of the front screen view. #3 is longer battery life. #4 is I like how the power and start/stop buttons are easier to find without looking at the camera, I always have to look at the 8 to turn it on/off. #5, funny enough, is that the battery door opens further than the 8 does. I constantly kept popping off the door by accident. #beagoodhuman

    Just got the Hero 8 literally a few days ago, the upgrade is not worth it. You can give a great camera to anybody, it does not mean they will produce great content. How you film and edit is by far a much more important skill of film making. I’m loving the 8 so far, and will see what the 10 will look like. Thanks for the review to help dispel any questions people may have had. Great stuff 🙏🏽🔥😎

    We already talked about why i prefer a lens that is not removable, but seeing that the mount system is no longer plastic, im excited to see how it performs. My 7’s lens from constant removal felt “loose”. And i had fogging issues, now that its metal, i feel confident that if i start having those same issues, a new lens will fix the problem. After all, the metal “mount” wont wear over time from plastic friction. Love the front screen for vloggin! Totally upgrading from the 8! @Davidmanning you should make a poll on your channel to see how many plan to get it 😬

I've got an 8 and I've found that it does start to struggle in darker environments (ie inside buildings and airplanes) so the bigger sensor with probably better lower light capability is what I'm most excited about.

    Hey, you are a motorcycle rider, aren't you? Here is another reason to upgrade from the 8 - horizon leveling. If you install it on a motorcycle and ride twisties or on a track, then you can capture those MotoGP-like moments of lean, when you can see your bike and body leaning all the way into the turn while the horizon stays level.

I don’t have to sync the audio that way and it’s recorded right onto the video. You can fine tune the levels very very precisely.

    Came here to say the same thing. The horizontal leveling is intriguing, but not $450 better than my Hero 7 that still seems new to me. The Hero 7 was a pretty big jump in stabilization technology. It doesn't make any sense to me why he would include it in his "automatic upgrade" category.

    I currently have a Sony FDR X3000 action cam. It has built in stabilization. While it has this stabilization my big complaint is that when mounted on a stuntman chest and I hit it with my knee or elbow quick and jarring, the result is jumpy/flickering video. Question: do you know or can you do a test to determine if either the GoPro 8 or 9's stabilization can handle these sudden jarring hits without jumpy/flicker video results? Thanks a lot.

    Gopro deserves credit for how masterfully they DON'T release improvements! After 9 of these things, it's obvious now that this isn't the bumble of a young innocent start up, but the calculated baiting of current customers into a new "improved" futire product.

    After discovering your channel I dove face first into the GoPro world with the Hero 8 back in July. I have since accumulated a handful of batteries and loads of accessories. I am glad you suggest that its not a necessary upgrade to the 9 at this point. I think buying new accessories and batteries alone is what will stop me for now. Would love to see a full vlog of a trip or adventure completely on the 9 though!

    This is the best comparison video on gopro 9! Thanks for making it short and simple, covering only the major differences. And for dumbing it down for non-techies! Other videos never even mentioned about the front screen, let alone the new lens, new battery, and hind sight recording. The front screen is a deal breaker for me and can’t decide between the osmo, 8, and 9. But I love how well you compared all 3! I held back on the osmo because of it’s poor video and audio. And I didn’t want to spend and extra $75 for the front camera mod on the 8. But you have me sold on the 9! I’m getting an open-box of the 9 on Best Buy, which almost comes close to the cost of the 8 and front camera mod (which is hard to find on sale)!
