Really bad, they have become GoPro, though it does not get the highest because it turns off battery. So next update, we hope that GoPro works with how the cameras drag power instead of increasing all pixels and slow motion.
According to the market buzz, this is a BIG step up for the Go Pro. How big? Let's find out in this buying guide.
Download the free Go Pro and Quik mobile apps and take advantage of QuikStories, where you can send footage to your phone and let the app automatically edit it into the breath-taking video. Much of the buzz around the Hero6 Black is around this feature.
Much of Go Pro's "big step up" has to do with 4K60 and 1080p240 video, capable of delivering twice the performance of its predecessors.
The Go Pro Hero 6 Black also promises the best image quality ever, thanks to a brand new GP1 chip which has been optimised with this Go Pro model in mind.
Smooth, stable footage really enhances the viewing experience, and the Go Pro Hero 6 Black delivers there as well, with what they call their most advanced video stabilisation yet.
With 5 GHz Wi-Fi, copying video and photos to your phone is a much faster experience: 3 x faster offload speeds to be precise.
Another improvement in the Hero 6 Black is enhanced image quality for both video and photos in low-light.
These upgraded and updated features are housed in a tough and strong body. As a Go Pro is often used in and around water, you'll be pleased to know the Hero 6 Black is waterproof up to 10 metres.

After months of speculation, GoPro's latest and greatest camera, the hotly anticipated Hero 6, has landed in our grubby mitts. Resident camera-fettler Reuben Bakker-Dyos has spent the morning playing with the new action camera and he's ready to give his first impressions.
A superb action camera with great image quality and image stabilisation; but rather pricey
4K video recording at 60fps; Great image stabilisation; Same excellent design as Hero 5;
Much more expensive than Hero 5; Poor image quality in low light; App needs polish;
It's safe to say the Hero6 Black is the best action cam GoPro has made. That doesn't necessarily mean it's the right one for you though. The new shooting modes are excellent, particularly if you're shooting for the big screen or have a penchant for dramatic slo-mos. But they don't come completely without cost. You'll need some recent laptop or smartphone hardware to edit the clips and they do take a bigger toll on battery life than full HD shooting. Even if you don't need to shoot reels of 4K, though, the Hero6's improved image stabilisation, dynamic range and low light capabilities make it a tempting proposition over the cheaper Hero5. If you want the absolute best action cam around, and are prepared to pay the £100 premium over its competition, this is it.
