The GoPro HERO is GoPro's entry-level action camera: a 3-ounce, pocketable body that shoots 4K30 video and 12MP photos with HyperSmooth stabilization. It is waterproof to 33 feet without a housing and has a rear touchscreen, voice control and Wi-Fi for the Quik app. It suits casual riders, skiers and travelers who want GoPro mounting and stabilization without paying for the flagship line. Against the HERO12 Black and HERO11 Black it gives up higher frame rates, a front screen and swappable batteries, and it runs about an hour at top settings on a built-in battery that cannot be swapped mid-trip.
