In our GoPro Buyer’s Guide we no longer recommend the GoPro Hero3 Black. That’s because for about $30 more you can get the newer GoPro Hero3+ black edition which is smaller, has SuperView, better battery life, better low-light performance and better audio quality.
Want to purchase a Hero3 black anyway?
