GoPro HERO12 Black - Waterproof Action Camera with 5.3K60 Ultra HD Video, 27MP Photos, HDR, 1/1.9" Image Sensor, Live Streaming, Webcam, Stabilization

Bought February 2024 direct from Gopro, primarily for snorkeling when on holidays so light usage several weeks of the year. Often problems with overheating which would eat the battery life and then the camera would switch off. Also the camera used battery life 1-2% per day even when switched off, so when I didn't use the camera for a few months in between trips I would have to recharge the battery. On the performance outside of this I recorded very similar footage at the same snorkel site of French angel fish in late 2022 with my old gopro lcd+ and in 2024 with this one. The colours and textures were more true-to-life on the old one with 1080 resolution. My older gopro, one issue was it was slow to download from camera to phone. I thought with a new camera and a new Samsung phone with plenty of memory space bought around the same time this process would be better. If anything it was worse. Downloading anything from camera to the phone took forever. It is supposed to work over a WiFi connection between phone and camera. This process also used a lot of battery so anything over two minutes of 4k footage, the camera would just give up and switch off without completing the download. Then the final straw. I always used with the gopro diving case even for shallow depths. Was out on a boat-trip a week ago, forgot the external case but figured, I can still use this to depth of 33 feet as advertised. This was in the Mediterranean sea snorkelling on the surface with a short floaty grip, so camera never in more than a few feet of water. The menu system started jumping around without me touching anything and then the camera shut down. I could see some condensation on the inside of one of the screens. When I got back to my hotel I did a test to take out the battery, put a bit of tissue in the compartment, closed up and immersed the camera fully in the sink. Checked and tissue was dry so the door was definitely closed. In my opinion there may be a design flaw that water is seeping in somewhere else, maybe through the microphone or the seals around the lcd screens, or maybe on the hinge side of the door? If you read other reviews here and elsewhere, others have had the same problem. Not everyone has had this issue so maybe there was a Quality issue with a batch of cameras made in second half of 2023? On the gopro warranty it says waterproof "as long as the door is closed properly" so if the waterproofing fails, essentially the user is blamed for not closing the door (to the compartment that holds the battery, the sd card and usb-charging port) properly if water damage occurs. Most warranties are only for a year but a camera this expensive should be expected to last for many years, especially with light usage.

A câmera GoPro Hero Black 12 funcionou perfeitamente. Viajei com ela por 20 dias (Junho), enfrentando poeira e muito frio. A câmera não travou e nem superaqueceu nenhuma vez. Eu utilizei o cartão Micro SD SanDisk Extreme Pro 64GB C10 U3 A2 V30 170 Mbps.

I purchased the GoPro HERO12 Black for outdoor activities and travel, and it has been an excellent camera. The 5.3K video quality is impressive, with sharp details and smooth footage even during fast movement. The image stabilization works very well and helps create professional-looking videos without needing extra equipment. The camera is compact, durable, and easy to carry anywhere. I like that it is waterproof and can handle different environments, whether hiking, swimming, or recording family activities. The photo quality is also great, and the battery performance is improved compared to older models. The controls are simple to learn, and the touchscreen makes changing settings convenient. The wide-angle view captures more of the scene, which is perfect for outdoor adventures. The only minor downside is that high-resolution recording can use battery power quickly, so carrying an extra battery is helpful for longer trips. Overall, the GoPro HERO12 Black is a powerful and reliable action camera with excellent video quality, strong stabilization, and great durability. It is a great choice for anyone who wants to capture adventures and everyday moments.

I got this camera to make small home movies and stuff, i'm not an action sports guy, I don't need the insane stablization to capture down hill biking or anything and i'm not jumping out of air planes. I am just your average Joe that wakes up and goes to work, and don't do much else. but I also didn't want to kill the battery on my phone every time I wanted to film something so I got this camera, which at $95 for five months is a great deal considering you get a good 4k camera shipped for a little over $100. it comes with the enduro battery which is great, I've recorded off and on at birthday parties and the battery lasted the whole day. I also go the media mod and so far the audio i've heard from it is really good. completely satisfied with the purchase and would 100% recommend if you want to save a $150 over the Hero 13
