Amazon.com : GoPro HERO13 Black - Waterproof Action Camera with 5.3K60 Video, 27MP Photo + Compatability with HB-Series Lenses : Electronics

I have GoPro 12 I needed a second one so I bought the 13 unfortunately it’s not sinking very difficult to use batteries not the same. I’m unsatisfied with this product. I’m returning it. Big disappointment. I should’ve read the reviews first.

Decently better battery life, new lens system. Both worthy upgrades. It may look similar on the outside (and may take the same quality video) but the features the 13 comes with make a worthy upgrade if you are on the fence.

The last go pro I had was 10 generations ago. It is weird that the form factor is so similar, but nice that I can use all the same mounting accessories.I like all the different digital lens modes, and the impressive hyper smoothing. I didn't expect digital smoothing to get so good. And I'm considering getting the macro lens option since that is really what I would like to use this for, as a B cam for documenting experiments.What I don't like is the app. It is annoying and non-intuitive. And it is always giving me upsell pop ups. As to non-intuitive, even just trimming a clip in the app is awkward - I don't know how it was possible to make the user interface so bad. And editing is non-intuitive, too. But people do it. Maybe I'm just too old and used to NLE editing systems from the past rather than social media editing apps. But CapCut, for example, I get, but not the GoPro App.Nice camera. Terrible app. Which makes the user experience sub-par for me, which is very disapointing.

The camera mount is not connecting with the camera and loses its charge in less than an hour. I have tried repeatedly to make the camera respond to it, but to no avail. The camera does not respond to the mount, which connects to the camera via a cable. Additionally, the camera’s image quality is poor, especially in low-light scenes. I paid a lot of money to get high-quality footage, but it has been disappointing with this camera. Therefore, I will return it and purchase a product from another company.

I LOVE THIS CAM!My only complaint is having to buy new accessories like batteries, etc. Over all once the update went through (took forever) all was well with the product. You need to make sure the SD card is formatted before you install the update otherwise you'll be there for a while. Other than that the quality is far improved from my 9 so it's worth the ticket.
