Well, they fixed my main gripe I had with the Hero 7 black. Now the screen doesn't dim down to 10% after 60 seconds of continuously filming making it impossible to see the screen outside in the sun. The video quality and stabilization have improved a little bit. Colors are slightly more earthy and warmer. That stabilization just keeps getting better and better. Can't wait for the day when you can walk with the camera (not run, but just walk) and it looks like you have it on a dolly track. I like how you don't have to put the camera in a case anymore to mount it. Those new feet that pop out are an improvement. Although, I still would much prefer a 1/4 tripod hole. I don't mind that the lens is a fixed piece of glass, although that seems to bother a lot of people. My only complaints would be 1) you still can't take a picture in 16x9 format. WTF????????? The door to get to the battery is harder to open than on the 7. The screen on the back is just too small. I wish the whole camera was like 1/2 inch bigger to allow for a bigger screen. Or keep it the same size and make the font bigger. Trying to cut the camera on or off can sometimes be ridiculously frustrating because of the water proof rubber seal around the camera buttons. I wish this camera came in two varieties. Waterproof and Water resistant. That would make the buttons a lot easier to press and allow for a better microphone. I'm still gonna give it 5 stars cuz this camera is amazing for the price.

GoPro HERO8 Black
This is HERO8 Black—the most versatile, unshakable HERO camera ever. A streamlined design makes it more pocketable than ever, and swapping mounts takes just seconds, thanks to built-in folding fingers. And with the optional Media Mod, you get ultimate expandability to add more lighting, pro audio and even another screen. There’s also game-changing HyperSmooth 2.0 stabilization with jaw-dropping slo-mo.

FEATURES + BENEFITS
Streamlined Design
The reimagined shape is more
pocketable, and folding fingers at the base let you swap mounts quickly. A new side door makes changing batteries even faster, and the lens is now 2x more impact resistant. (1)
HyperSmooth 2.0
Smooth just got smoother. Now HERO8 Black has three levels of stabilization—On, High and Boost— so you can pick the best option for whatever you do. Get the widest views possible, or boost it up to the smoothest video ever offered in a HERO camera. Plus, HyperSmooth works with all resolutions and frame rates, and features in-app horizon leveling.

LiveBurst
Record the moments 1.5 seconds before and after your shot, so you can choose the best single frame for the perfect photo—or an awesome shareable video.
SuperPhoto + HDR
Capture killer 12MP photos with
improved HDR—while in motion or stationary—with reduced blur and serious detail even in low-light areas.
Night Lapse Video
Shoot awesome time lapse videos at night in 4K, 2.7K 4:3, 1440p or 1080p, all processed in-camera.

Great Action Camera!
A lot of the reviews I see here are from previous GoPro users who are unhappy with their upgrade. I am a first-time GoPro user but come from a family of photographers and professionals. I personally can say I absolutely love the hero8. Stabilization from hypersmooth 2.0 is really near gimbal quality at this point. I've already tested the underwater aspect of the camera without a case and it performed beautifully! I've had zero issues with SD cards, freezing or really anything else. My main gripe is with the GoPro app... not a fan! but doesn't matter because I'm exporting everything to Adobe premiere pro anyways. To sum it up, for an action camera the image quality really is incredible on the GoPro Hero8 and I am perfectly pleased with my purchase I can't wait to really push the limits of this camera!
