The Hero 8 isn’t foolproof, but it’s heading in that direction. The clever new design and the new UI make this the friendliest GoPro yet for newbies and experienced users alike.

For me, I’m actually excited about using a GoPro again, in a more creative way. Rather than routinely using it in the same mode all the time. And that’s more important than ever, now that DJI is providing some much needed competition.
