GoPro is lacking innovation, each camera sounds identical to the previous one with only very small changes. They were still the market leader in action cams so for a while it was the only real viable option.
Nowadays there are a lot more companies that innovate in this field. DJI released the Osmo Action with dual screen and fantastic stabilization, Xoami has the Mi Action Camera for cheap, and just recently Insta360 released the modular "One R" that allows to quickly swap the camera module for 360, 1" or 4k action. I was in the market for a action cam and went for the Insta360.
GoPro created the market but nowadays I just don't see a reason to get a GoPro when there are arguably better options with more innovation out there.
- mackrevinack 6y agowell in fairness the hyperlapse feature they released a few years back was fairly innovative. and the stablisation was/is better than your find in some phones. but yea apart from that, most models seem pretty much the same to me
