You do know we don't all live at your house

Because it has been available for the time preceding your comment?

Well, as one person is spending a whole day skiing in the mountains, one person is using it for a scuba expedition, and one other is holidaying in the Philippines, I'm starting to feel a bit left behind.

So, will the battery and SD card last long enough for me to free fall from a balloon on the edge of space?

It says for next day delivery order in the next 3 hours :confused: wow

just ordered

Are these any good ?

cheers op, ordered!

It says for next day delivery order in the next 3 hours :confused: wow

​I thought this model doesn't have a LCD screen. also the battery is not removable! but for £99 u can't complain.

heat added

but waiting for the hero 4 silver

There were two models of Hero+, one with LCD and one without.

I have this and it is well worth £99.

Thanks, reserved stock and will collect later. Heat added.

I have one of these, fantastic bit of kit. Great quality videos and the built in LCD makes it great for reviewing footage and framing shots on the fly

Cheers op ordered, keep buying cheap chinese rip offs, sjcams and other 4k claimed rubbish and everyone has failed or broken, so looking forward to fitting this to my new Mt 09 motorbike and going for a blash with it.

Ordered one, many thanks mate!!

At this price it would be rude but to.

Aiks... Just bought that cheapo Chinese brand posted here yesterday for £17 :smiley: I wonder how this stack up with that :smiley:

Does it take stills too?

What is good about these is it the quality of the videos or just that they are ultra portable for sport filming etc

Me too!

yup got one too :laughing:

Has this got 4K recording?

Can I use it for snorkeling, if buying a case? Thanks

Thanks man!

just reserved!!! brilliant price for this. Many thanks op, had been trying to decide between getting a cheap copy from amazon or ebay or paying 150/200 for a gopro. This has decided it for me

what's the difference beside the WiFi from the hero grey? (without the LCD screen) .

and how many MP is this one? :smiley:

Great price- I thought my £149 from Argos on Black Friday was a bargain. Well done OP!

Screen and Wifi is an outstanding deal. My middle son absolutely loves his basic GoPro (no screen, WiFi).

I want one!!

Hi, I know I'm massively late to the party here with Go Pros so excuse my ignorance, does anyone know if these would make a decent in car DVR? I'm looking for a cheapish DVR but a quality one too, I know these were initially built for action but I'm just wondering if they'd double up for in car use or if there's a better option I should consider for around this price? Cheers!

What a stonking find OP,missed out by minutes for free delivery today,but don't mind travelling to collect after that saving

Just came across this myself whilst searching what memory cards to purchase for the GoPro hero+ that I purchased on Black Friday for my boys for £85 each ! Have requested to return those and sent hubby out to collect the 2 of these I reserved ! Even better price !

Any memory card included?

Any thoughts on the bundle they offer, with memory card, head strap, etc.?

Thanks!

Thanks! Ordered!

Wow great find, been looking for one for ages thanks!

This is a a fantastic deal. I also bought one at Argos for £150 and thought that was a great price for a 1080p 60fps recording and a two year guarantee. You will not find this quality in a copycat model.

Personally I would look for someone like Argos or John Lewis to price match this rather than buying from Curry's. Can't go wrong for 99 quid though.

Ordered, fantastic find, bought the pack for an extra £22, also don't forget Quidco

So my ordered Hero3 black would be better at £125( eBay action though)

Thank you OP. I've never wanted one, i've never needed one but I've now got one.

I'm in the process of persuading myself to try paragliding next summer on holiday.. And to go snorkeling and diving. This should prevent me being ripped off buying CD from the people running them.

is this LCD touch screen??
I'd like to return my 4k camera for this

Worth it? Are third-party accessories any good?

Been looking to get one of these to replace my broken video camcorder. I guess this isnt the latest model, which is perfectly fine as I dont like paying a premium to have the latest gadget, but does anyone know where this ranks in their range. Is it last years model, a few years old or series 4 etc.

It appears to have been released middle 2015, according to Amazon. Review here by expert reviews was done in Oct 2015. http://www.expertreviews.co.uk/gopro/gopro-hero-lcd

dam it op this is the last thing I need to see on Xmas eve! Word of advice to anyone wanting to buy a sports cam... having a Ltd panel on the back will make your life much easier.

I own the Xiaomi's Yi sports cam I have manged to get some great footage off it, but it's a pain in the **** not being able to see a menu or even see what your recording!

muscle memory is needed for Xiaomi's cams as 1 click for taking photos 2 clicks for recording. That's the last thing I need when I'm stood on top of a half pipe about to drop in and I'm **** around with buttons.

Think I will treat myself op...Heat :wink:

This or a Drift Stealth 2 for a motorcycle helmet?

Thanks for that, it's really appreciated.

Does anyone know if it would make a good replacement for a normal video camcorder?

Do you mean LCD panel? I guess this one is good then. Im new to this, so I'm just making sure im dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's.

Is this better than the GoPro HERO Session Action....149 at Jessops so with some batteries etc get 50 quid back on the Amex offer?

I got my son one of these from Argos for £150, this is a great deal. 1080p 60fps, waterproof to 40 metres, LCD screen and can even control and view what the camera is viewing on your iPhone/iPad in real time.

I was looking at the Hero 5 Black but unless you're a professional and need the extra features or want 4K this is great and at £250 less it's a no brainier.

Bloody auto correct on my phone yeah I meant LCD. this will be more than enough for anyone wanting a sports cam. Yeah you can't take out the batter or replace it but then again from reviews I watched moat people are getting 2 hours of footage with the LCD on as well.

Purchase a decent portable battery charge and you can also charge it while your not using it??

also have a look on eBay for kit. There's plenty on there and you will be able to get yourself sorted in no time.

I just ordered, was going to go for the hero5 black however copped out and gone for this! Great price!!! Then bunddle for the extra £22.99 is well worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can the moat people take out the batter???

(Your phone's auto correct is awesome so thanks for making me smile and merry Xmas!) :smiley:

Reserved and just collected, appears to be good stocks.

Does this have removable battery? I'd use it for ski trips so ideally would need a spare as won't last anywhere near long enough for a full day on the mountain

For anyone who already has this-
What is the battery life like? How many hours per charge with LCD on?
How long to recharge?
Thinking about this for scuba trip, but need to be sure battery life is good if can't change the battery. Thanks

For dashcam you'll also want good quality night time recording. The techmoan guy on youtube got some good reviews.

32gb card with 1080p/60 is gonna fill up very quickly, why can't a higher capacity not be used?

No, as soon as you buy it and you will, just ask the store assistant where the bin is and drop it in there, they've all come out of the bin and put back on sale, which is called recycling.

I wont buy one if there crap

No need just take a sneaky peak in their bin, you might make it out without the alarm going off or you could ask for one for free, that's what I do (the latter not the former as that's illegal). So far I've not succeeded but the law of average says I will one day.

Packaging says 64

Trying to pay with Visa debit, Visa Credit, Company Visa credit and Paypal all not working :-)

Supports Micro SD Cards upto 64GB.

Silly question. Any good for what? bedroom?

cheapest ever

Great thank you op. went to store this morning. hot hot hot

Yer lol

How long can you record for ?

so i recently bought a cheap waterproof action cam on ebay for £18

the pics and video are awful.

i never wanted to spend £100 on one, but I wonder if the £50/£60 ones will be any better than the cheapo one or i'm just better off getting this?

are there any cheap cams that are any good (doesn't have to be as good as go pro, just needs to be usable!)

Was looking at this for using in the car to record the journey to the airport but the journey is over 2 hours

If the battery is a worry on a long journey,you could always use a power bank or USB socket in the fag socket in the car to give it constant power.

I was wondering about memory card how much it stores i never used go pro or any thinking like it but its small size is ideal to use in the philippines while on holiday

I think the max SD card size this will take is 64gb.

I have the hero 4 silver and use a 64gb card and find that's more than enough for general holiday use,and if I find it does ever get near full I just export the footage to my iPad.That said,if you plan on recording car journeys of 2 hours plus,it will soon fill up.

Thanks so much! Ordered. I was going to go for the bundle but found Amazon do things like this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Zookki-Accessories-Camcorder-Lightdow-DBPOWER/dp/B01HGK815W/ref=sr_1_17?ie=UTF8&qid=1482593728&sr=8-17-spons&keywords=64gb+gopro&psc=1 and I'll get a bigger card separate. Off to Aus in a few weeks so this is perfect! Thanks :smile:

​Same everything is blocky and grainy! Going to try this :smile:

i think so

I am not action man.

Repeat after me - I don't need one, I don't need one....

Amazing deal, ordered :smiley:

Thanks

Spec info says 32GB so cool it takes more! Cheers

Do you have an iPad with large storage, cannot be transferred via cable or does it work
Well
Using wifi or Bluetooth

I have a 128gb iPad Pro 12.9 inch and I transfer via the GoPro app or I use an official Apple SD card to lightning adapter and that transfers the videos at a very fast rate.

Link to Apple cable I use -

http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/product/MJYT2ZM/A/lightning-to-sd-card-camera-reader?fnode=85

Ordered brilliant thanks!

cheers OP for posting the deal - Merry Christmas to ya!

Heat 8)added - super price!! Brought this for £149.99 on Black Fridays from Argos, just took it back and brought it again from Currys saved £50 :-) Happy Days!!!!

The gladiators.

Just bought one, great price and free delivery too

Couldn't resist. Bought.

​That bundle is amazing!!

There are cheaper/similar offerings that look to be of the same/very similar quality. I went for this one last week at £9.99 that seems to offer more than enough for me at the moment - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0177LMQPG/ Often a Lightning deal on these bundles too.

I wouldn't personally unless you want to use it as an action cam too. Why:

1 - Its not really designed for it so you miss out on a lot of features that something like a Nextbase 312GW has as standard e.g.GPS stamp, speed and importantly auto protect in the event of an impact etc.

2 - The Nextbase 312GW is a really good camera and costs less than this one (around £85)

Horses for courses but to buy this as a dashcam is like buying a smartphone to use solely as a camera. Hope that helps :wink:

Not really - no zoom capability and a very wide field of view. Not sure if this model has selectable field of view, but even the narrowest will be very wide angle - you won't be able to get in close to whatever you're filming. Also quite hard to point it exactly where you want it.

Hot! Been looking at various Gopro knock offs to take to the TT in June. Couldn't say no to this, and another £7 off through my employee discount scheme! :sunglasses:

Thats the main problem with this site, you keep having to move to a bigger house!!!

FYI
PROS
Rugged design. Numerous mounts available. Built-in Wi-Fi. 1080p60 video capture. Extremely wide field of view. Affordable.
CONS
Clunky interface. Front LCD not backlit. Can't be removed from case. Built-in battery can't be swapped in field. Two-hour recording life per charge. Lens shows a lot of distortion. Omits image stabilization. Requires optional accessory for tripod use. Doesn't include AC adapter.
BOTTOM LINE
The GoPro Hero+ is a solid action camera if you're on a budget, but it can't be removed from its case and you can't swap its battery.

Scorchio!

Collected mine today - 64gb card gone in no problems, it's wifi and the screen is touchscreen.

Cheers OP :smiley: looking forward to trying it with GoPro app on my BMW.

A double bringer :smiley:

Thanks never even knew that existed. Thought though was locked down by Apple. Can it work both ways and act as extra store in an iPhone for example

If I connect a battery pack via a USB cable, will this charge whilst recording?

Thanks in advance.

I was thinking of that - any problems on return ?! :wink:

No you can only transfer pictures to the ipad via the cable,you can't take them back off.But there are apps that allow you to do it,such as an app called send anywhere.With that app I can send anything to and from the ipad.

There is a downsideto that cable and that is the fact it won't read/copy anything you like,example,it won't read the SD card from my dash cam,but it's fine with the SD cards from my gopro and canon DSLR.

Should do,as it does on the hero 4

Can it be used as a dash cam if so does
It come with a car mount?

don't trust their stock info when looking, my local was showing out of stock but still had one when I went and checked.
Just set it up. looks good for the money

Nope not a problem at all - refunded back on card.

Reserved thanks.

If you want a dash cam you are better off just buying a dash cam.As suggested earlier,the nextbase 312gw is a great buy award winning dash cam for around £80.

A proper dash cam will start and stop recording when the ignition is turned on/off and records in a constant loop.

Thanx

Didn't need it. Bought it anyway

Great find !

Would this work with VW cam connect?

No home delivery, only store with stock is 30 miles away. Really need one to go travelling, heat for the deal but **** service from curry's there

Home delivery is not available and reserve and collect goes to endless loop when Checkout securely is clicked.

wont hold much air by the look of it :wink:

thanks couldn't not buy at this price.

This was £99 at Decathlon in the Summer, GOPRO has discontinued this Model and stocks seem to have been mounting up as there is considerable competition at the cheap end of the market.

Which go pro is this is it the new one ?

Just reserved in store incase I decide I "need" one ....

Pretty decent price. Personally I'd still go for the gitup pro 2 for £20 or so more but for £100 tops this is about as good as you'll get.

There is quite a few negative reviews on that dash cam. Lots of people report it freezing and not working when it's cold. Not ideal unless in Dubai :smiley:

They sell a compatible dash mount in store for 7.99

Well I personally haven't had it do anything like that,and I don't live in Dubai.

Are these people leaving the dash cam in the car at night or something for it to get so cold.

You can always find a cheaper one with the same abilities. One example is Xiaomi which has very good reviews and at the half of the price of the GoPro.

thanks op, ordered.

No removable battery means it will end up in the bin after 6 months.

I've been after an action cam for a while and was eyeballing various ones on Amazon and eBay, but decided against them. Glad I did. Thanks OP. I've reserved one for pick up, shame I have to go out and get it on Boxing Day...

Not sure, however guess some might leave it in the car overnight. More likely if it's garaged. Just seems to be a few reviews that say the same things

Sold out near me!! :disappointed:

Two year guarantee!

Mic drop

Out of stock near me

not available for delivery and not available in any of nearby stores. so what's the point of having this deal here?

Because it has been available for the time preceding your comment?

Deals been live for most of 24th December, featured deal of the day on deal hunting websites, so maybe think for a moment as to why it might be nearly sold out.

Does anybody know if an external mic can work with this, having no luck finding one that works online

You do know we don't all live at your house

I got one today but reserved 2. There is still one reserved at the Rugby store if anyone wants the reservation code I'll let the 1st person who pm's me have the code

P.s Milton Keynes and some wales stores still have stock as well

Yes, but I would suggest a parachute if you want to see the video.

Quiet few left in Yorkshire stores

how much is the SD card??

I've become really skimpy recently and having experienced chinese products that actually work (xiaomi, mobius), I think it's worth exploring what they can do instead. I'm all for supporting a decent product but not when there are better ones cheaper. The brand doesn't matter anymore.

I always wanted one of these but couldn't really justify the cost or find the purpose for it.The former is now dealt with! Ordered. Thanks for posting!

I saw this earlier today and thought about buying it but my wife said we should think about it. Now we have, I can't get it for home delivery and it isn't in a store anywhere near me!

Reserved one of these, no idea why. I'm a stranger to action: for me, 'action' is jogging the last few steps for the bus stop.

Will probably not bother picking up and spend the money on Domino's instead.

Online says out of stock... gutted

Join the MT-09 facebook page. It's a good resource for tips etc. Got a Tracer myself. Love it to bits!

Smart wife!

Ordered one earlier today for home delivery.Do I need it? no!But definitely wanted it since it's reduced.I have the SJCAM 4000 wifi and it is pretty good too.Will use it to record at gym to review and improve workouts.:PThanks OP!...for making me spend!

Do they lose their ability to hold a charge?

If the deal is gone for you just go and spend £350 in the gopro hero5, that will teach her for the next time

cold. stores 20 mile radius london oos

Whats wrong with this site. So many ****** like juanmax here.

​
I've been looking at the Xiaomi Yi 2 (the 4K model). it compares very well to the GoPro Hero 5.

Video quality is about the same, it's half the price, and the interface/screen is more responsive and less buggy.

The benefit of the GoPro 5 and session is that they are both waterproof without a case. That isn't a major concern for me as I don't see myself using it underwater anyways (though that's still a cool feature). The microphones sound significantly better on the GoPro 5 models too. By the looks of it, mics are one area Xiaomi have cut corners.

I could always use a lav mic to record audio with the Yi 2. That's fine if you are recording a video in one big long take, but post production audio syncing would become a royal pain in the ass if you are syncing up dozens of shorter clips.

As with all things, it depends on how you use the camera and what you are looking to do with it.

From the video tests I've watched and reviews I've read,

They're available again. Just ordered for online delivery. Was out of stock when I tried late last night

Specially for me. I've just ordered and reserved. Thanks op.

Brixton had it last night

Excellent deal, saved my Christmas for the OH no clue what to get and couldn't believe the price on this. Went to store and the manager couldn't believe the price either!!!! :smile::sunglasses: only one left in the Derry City Store NI which I got.

Question..

Can these be used as a dash cam also?

What makes these better than the £30 dpower ex5000 you can pick up? Or is there no difference?

Is it just a name on the front of very similar hardware?

not when i posted

Seems to be in stock for me for online order.

Thanks OP. Yup back in stock online for free delivery, been meaning to grab something like this for a while. Can anyone recommend a suitable mount for a full face motorcycle helmet?

Yes they can

i couldn't order one yesterday, but this morning i could.. must be an Christmas miracle lol

Ordered! Hot....!

Ordered this morning, thank you!

Because of the permanent casing, how easy will this be to mount on a handheld gimbal system?

Don't think it will fit on gimbals designed for gopros.

I upgraded to the hero 4 so I could use a Rollei G4 plus gimbal

Apart from recording basic video,how is this any good as a dash cam ?

It doesn't have GPS for location stamps,it won't display speed stamps,it won't save recordings automatically if there is an impact.it won't start/stop recording when ignition is turned on/off.

If you want a dash cam,then buy a dash cam.

lets face it,you wouldn't buy a dash cam and use it as a action camera.

There's quite a few reviews in favour of the dpower. Arguably it's the better buy. It's basically a choice of whether you want to splash out on a brand name really.

This is what I think.

In store collections out of stock, so just got email confirmation there delivering it to my house

Delivery out of stock now. Nowhere in store either now. :-(

Nowhere in-store UK Wide? Quick check says "Harrogate" has them near me.

fantastic saving, thanks a lot!

So annoying seeing sellers on ebay flogging these for 149.99 with 10 available. Clearly just buying at this price for a profit. Hope they get stuck with them

What's the highest frame rates the pro supports for playback? My iPad 4 only dues 50

GOPRO HERO+ LCD
or
SJCAM Original SJ5000X Elite?

can't make my mind up

Ordered one for delivery but now not sure about size and casing. Thinking about the session as it's water proof with no need for extra case but like the idea of framing footage in the app for the +. Decisions decisions. Heated added

​Love my dbpower, although I've only had it for a couple of weeks so not the best advert lol!

For £100ish I've got the camera, accessories, memory card, tripod etc...bargain

Which version of the hero is this, 3, 4 or 5?

It's none of them.

It simply called Hero+LCD

Expire

Hi all, im travelling quite some distance to pick some up tomorrow, i reserved more than i need, mainly because i know the amount of times i get calls in the morning to say it was a 'system error' and 'it says we have 3 but we cannot find them' so to be on the safe side, ive reserved more than i need and in more than one branch, if they are all available, then i can bring them down and post to anyone that wants any, ofcourse postage fees will apply, and possible a few quids to help me cover the petrol, not trying to make profit here, i am travelling over 100 miles, and my car is not eco friendly, so will cost me £40 easily to travel down, but i will check this post tomorrow morning and see if any interest and will buy accordingly if there are any extras. i have nothing to lose here, but i thought i can share my gain since i know a lot of people were unable to reserve, and lastly - collection is also welcome, i am based in wembley, london. thanks

got this for the wife on Christmas Eve, saved my bacon as I didn't have her anything, she loves it, she will use it when skiing.

Back in stock for store and home delivery!

Yeah you are right but they can still be used to record video while you are driving. I wouldn't use it specifically for a dash cam - most cheap dash cams do not have GPS, etc..

None for delivery or within 100 miles for collection. Saves the irritation of buying from currys though I suppose...

are you still able to do this?

​did anyone take you up on the offer?

Can you take stills on these?

Here's the reservations for the GoPro in Leeds

How much will you sell it for?

Hey man, i'd be happy if you gave me the reserve code, thanks

** mod edit removed email**

Hi yes, currently driving to the store, will let you know how many extra I got once I get back home

thank you.​

currys were cheeky with me. said reservation is finished, but I made sure I bought it :wink: turns out it was saved somewhere else !

​disgusting lol. ours had 5 and mine was hiding.

What a surprise, went to pick up my GoPro that i had reserved for click and collect.

''Sorry sir, its out of stock''

Just picked mine up in Tamworth, awesome!!

Just picked mine up today. Having a little dabble with it now. I guess I better create a YouTube channel to get my money's worth. Stay tuned, lol... :sunglasses:

​thats what they said to me.
i think they want it !
mine was moved to another section, I said it's reserved till today so they marked my word.

you shouldn't have to give up. and walk empty!
the terms state, it's reserved till next working day, which is today

Thank you for the advice :smiley: gonna give the 312GW a go!

I had reserved 3 and picked up today. Attitude of sales people was - why you need 3? asked me whether I am having business with VAT..blah blah..
complain to [email protected]

No problem, glad to help. I have the newer 412GW which isn't that different to the 312GW to be honest and its really good. The holder acts as a GPS antenna and the unit just slots in and out thanks to the magnetic connector.

When you watch the video back, it shows you a "live" google map, your speed and GPS location (this can be turned off if you're paranoid about it), and even telemetric data about g-forces?!? There's also a parking mode, not sure if I'd use this as I never leave the cam in unattended, but if you do, it will record any movement or impacts automatically. You can also set it so that it can protect files where something may have happened, I reduced this sensitivity down because the roads here are crap and it was filling the card with protected files just because I hit a pothole!!

Overall I'm happy with it, a lot of people have laughed and said it stupid but I've only ever had 3 accidents in over 20yrs of driving and all three were non-fault! Although I won in the end, this would have made it much quicker and easier to prove blame.

How much are you looking for the extras you picked up, i may be interested in one.

have i missed it ? :disappointed: I can't order one :disappointed::disappointed:

Please Advice, Thanks in advance.

I assume you didn't just accept this....right?

​These are now available to reserve at Ashford in kent. On Monday morning and afternoon they were out of stock over 100 mile radius of my address in Ashford, Kent. So go go go.

Hi, i have managed to get a few extra by travelling bit further. i can do them at £115 delivered.

£115 delivered.

£115 delivered

I'll take one

Stock in stores seems to have been replenished. Available to reserve just about everywhere I have checked this morning.

Yes - probably due to a bunch of people not collecting them after reserving. Luckily I have managed to reserve one this morning.

I have just checked - they are available to collect in Greenock.

Anyone wants it for £120? Because of time invested in this.

Is there any good external power packs with long USB? Was thinking of throwing a power pack in rucksack attach withong USB wire and keep the video rolling

What does everyone think about the fact that the battery is non-removable? For me that is a stopping point for purchasing one. For skiiing, I might be up on the slopes all day and want to record multiple runs and don't want to be sitting around waiting for it to re-charge.

At this low price, just buy two :wink:

You could try the £1 powerbanks found in the Poundland type shops. They usually have a capacity of 1200mAh. That's not a lot, but keep in mind the battery in this Gopro is rated at 1160mAh.

That said I'm not sure I trust the quality of these ultra-cheap powebanks. I'd be more inclined to go onto Amazon and find one at a low price with good feedback.

Now that is awesome thinking outside of the box! Well played.

Still nothing in London and still no delivery.

Worried might not get mine...Ordered the other day when the deal first went up, for collection in my local carphone warehouse...had an email saying It was being prepared but should have been ready to collect today but haven't heard anything

Back in stock today, I checked yesterday and couldnt get it anywhere.
Today my local currys had it to reserve.

​sjcam 4000 WiFi. I have one. it's quite good.

collected mine at rochdale!

Sorry just saw your in Wembley - could we meet half way for both say harrow? Will take it off you if you still want to sell thanks

Managed to reserve and collect one in York today, and there was also stock showing at a Leeds store earlier. No stock at either yesterday, so maybe worth rechecking stocks in some local stores.

Sadly still no stock in the Hertfordshire area.

Just spent about an hour researching this GoPro to see if it suits my needs, only to find that I can't order it because they won't deliver and have none in stock within 80 miles of me.

oos?

Goid price, too big for me. want it tonput on handlebars so manybdrivers just pull out like im not there. And sessions is so much smaller.

So frustrating seeing the ebay listing for 9 of these, buy it now for £1599!!!

why is it frustrating? it is just a business, isn't it. what do you think retailers do? they buy from manufacturer for 100 and sell to customers for 200.

Please do NOT offer these for sale in the Deals section. If you wish to sell then you must use the FS/FT section and comply with the rules at all times.

So is this a better deal (Lightening deal @ £50.39) than the Gopro this thread is about? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Campark-Waterproof-Underwater-Recording-Camcorder/dp/B01LEAQ4QI/ref=gbps_tit_m-8_4c31_a1606a5a?smid=A2HHZ9MYU4Y8KR&pf_rd_p=47028784-0610-44db-b4a4-32fad4394c31&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-8&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_i=118857031&pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=ZTVG207EM94YGT1FKFQH

Is anyone having any problems with their GoPro? Mine does not turn off and some buttons are unresponsive

Mine arrived today too - cheers OP!
Just a note for everyone - Download the GoPro Capture App on your App store and follow the instructions and the Hero+ will download the latest software and update!
Using the app you can see everything the camera has recorded and control it through the Hero+ inbuilt Wifi !!

Reserved but didn't realise they only hold till next day. Didn't see the option to pay when they'll hold for 28 days!
If anybody decides they don't want theirs I'm in the market

Mine arrived today but still don't know if I should get the session one instead... decisions decisions :smiley:

I am well confused now with delivery thing. It clearly states and stated since I have been looking at it from Christmas day that it is not available for a home delivery only for collection. So, how you guys managed to get it delivered if the option is not available?

In the first 24 hours of this deal appearing on HUKD the home delivery option was available on two occassions for a few hours. Some of us purchased the Gopro during those periods and opted for home delivery. But after those two occassions home delivery hasn't reappeared.

On a connected note has anyone thought of actually ringing the stores that show stock and asking whether they would be prepared to either post them to you or let a courier firm pick it up from them? This isn't all that hard to arrange and many courier companies have first time user cheap introductory offers. Alternatively use a service like Parcel2Go.

I've used this process of arranging collection (rather than the seller arranging delivery) several times over the years and bagged some bargains, particularly on eBay where some folks only sell via 'collection only' (thereby negating 98% of your eBay competition).

i have never had a gopro before so im not clued up on them BUT the picture quality is crap to say the least, very grainy and pixelated or do i have a faulty one? Also when connected via WiFi to my android phone its so laggy its laughable !

What lighting conditions are you shooting under? For example if it's indoors on a cloudy day then the camera will automatically increase the 'gain' (shown as iso or dB). This will result in very grainy videos/photos. On most action cams you won't get a great picture in low light, ie indoors. The Hero4 or 5 will do better, but you'll pay 2-3 times as much.

It's better if you try your Gopro outdoors to see what the pucture quality is like. Remember these cameras were originally intended for outdoor action and, being the size they are, both the sensor and lenses are quite small. This means they won't (with current technology) capture as much light as some other types of camera.

Finally there is an 'auto low light' feature on the Hero+. This will get rid of some of the graininess, but the frames per second (fps) will drop to around 8 whereas UK video works on 25fps. So you'll notice the video will appear much more jerky.

It's possible the laggy wifi streaming is actually down to the 8fps (opposed to normal 25 or 30fps) when 'auto low light' kicks in. Try the same thing tomorrow outdoors, when it's bright, and see if you get the same result.

cheers noddy for the info, im taking it to the beach tomorrow so hopefully i will see a difference !

Aaaaaa, that would explain then. Many thanks for the clarification it's much appreciated.

Managed a reserve & collect today. Thought I'd missed out when this thread expired. Can't wait to try it out tomorrow. Got an accessory pack arriving from Amazon tomorrow

which accessory did you get?

Which store?

KC1 - search on CCBETTER HERO on Amazon. A 'best seller' set of accessories should appear. They are currently £23.95 and have had 188 reviews. Can't seem to find a link from the Amazon app to copy and paste here.

Sameerpawar - it was the Kirkcaldy store. Most days when I looked within 100 miles or so there were none available anywhere. Dunfermline did have them in one day this week (Wednesday I think), and Kirkcaldy today. When I collected at lunchtime the person serving me said they had 3 in stock at that point. I've done a check tonight and none available now. Worth keeping an eye on the currys website a cpl,of times a day.

Same, very blurry and kept having NO SD - Even though using Sandisk Extreme card. Was on Chat with them, reformatted and manually updated the software. That seems to have solved that issue. Looking online, it's not the best for pictures indoor (iPhone quality is better). Need to take it for a test outdoors.

I've also been having 'no SD' and 'SD ERROR' messages using a brand new Sandisk class 10 32Gb Ultra micro SD card. But I've also been having issues since I updated the firmware (which was a big hassle). For example the gopro switched off at one point with two bars shown for battery. I couldn't turn it on for 15 mins and even trying to charge it didn't work (not even a red recharge light on front). Then all of a sudden it worked again for 10 minutes or so until battery turned off.

I'm not impressed with tge Gopro software apps on iOS either. The Capture app shows an old version of the firmware for my camera. But if I use the Android version it shows the latest version. I tried using the Gopro training app on iOS and that just wouldn't log in with my Gopro account. I tried contacting their customer support via the dedicated section of the Capture app, but no dice there either with an error message.

I'm beginning to think Gooro is all glossy brand with poor support and quality underneath.

But it's interesting we're both having issues with these Sandisk cards. My one works fine in other devices as does other micro SD cards in this Gopro.

Not sure where the problem lies, the card or the Gopro. I'm on the verge of sending both back.

As for image quality. Hmmm, it's ok outdoors. I have the advantage of using a lot of different cameras (it's my profession). What I'm seeing for something this small and at this price point is about right. It's passable but not as good for sharpness and (lack of) noise/graininess as a more expensive/larger camera or a newer iphone. The physics of light determines you'll lose something with a small sensor and fisheye lens. Also Gopro aren't going to put their best codec in a middle of the range camera. Otherwise why on earth would you step up to the Hero4 or 5.

Reserved two gopro today morning in Curry's near Barking. But then saw a voicemail from private number saying that it is out of stock.

This one on for £6.99 right now (Lightning deal so be quick - 2hrs left) looks very similar to the one I got - https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/ibn/Zookki-Accessories-Bundle-Camera-Accessory-Lightdow-DBPOWER/B01F6YOW94/

I purchased the £19 Zookki version when it was down to £13 in a lightning deal. Well worth it! The quality is much better than expected. The only downside of this particular kit (your one) is it doesn't come with the case. But even so, this is a great kit.

I went for an Amazon's Basic case last week (another lightning deal!), seems to do the job but can't compare to anything. Basically a lot of choice out there, but I'd recommend people keep an eye on the lightning deals if they haven't already picked up some accessories.

Thanks for the insight, I'm pretty much getting the same issues. I spoke with GoPro again and they said the SanDisk card I have is the recommended one, however many users are having issues with Sandisk and recommended the Lexar 633x card. I now have arranged a return on the Sandisk and will order that card, which is a pain! (If this is the case, no idea why they still have these cards recommended on their website?!)

I too am getting intermittent issues when the Card does work, in some cases it records fine and then it switches off! In other cases when I stop recording it comes up with a Camera Busy and hangs, then after switching it off/on comes with trying to repair the file and then I get the usual SD Card Error.

They did say, try it with Lexar card, and if the problem persists they will exchange it.

The Gopro apps and desktop eciting software is OK, but I prefer FCP. Gopro training app haven't used that either.

Quality wise, will need to test it outdoors, once I get the Cam to work properly!

Thanks, that's useful. I'll return my Sandisk and get the Lexar. Hoping this resolves the issues for both of us.

Worth noting if you want to shoot in low light: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hlBk6tZAq0A

Returned mine to Hayes in Middlesex today if anybody wants it they should have it in stock I guess.

Hi, what was the warranty for this item. I was sold by ebayer saying 2 years warranty and I also remember somewhere on this forum or curry's site as 2 years. But can't find it anywhere now - not on on curry's site, not on receipt not inside gopro box. Can I verify this anywhere.

Yep, definitely 2 years. I've checked on the screen-shoot I took at the time.
