TL;DR: The 4K-ready GoPro Hero 7 Black is on sale for $329, saving you $70.99.


We’d all love to say we live in the moment and don’t have to document everything, but let’s be real — not being able to Instagram your vacation is like having your oxygen supply cut off.

GoPros are the ultimate way to make those memories without getting your phone out, and the new GoPro Hero 7 Black is only $329 at Amazon.

Like a home security camera keeps tabs your home without you having to be there, a GoPro documents whatever you’re doing without using your hands. Just released in fall 2018, the Hero 7’s biggest glow up is the video stabilization — it’s flawless. Footage can get shaky when you’re recording while walking (let alone doing an actual activity), but the Hero 7’s “HyperSmooth” technology gives you gimbal-like stabilization without having to buy a gimbal. Oh yeah, and it’s all 4K.

The hands-free voice commands work just like Alexa to ensure that you never miss the perfect action shot. Because it’s waterproof, outdoor adventures like surfing, kayaking, and snorkeling are a go.

"GoPro, take a photo."

“GoPro, take a photo.”

But hands-free usage isn’t the only thing it’s good for. The Hero 7 is one of the best cameras for vlogging, live streaming, and time-lapse videos. It can even record vertical videos natively, and all you have to do is turn the camera 90 degrees.

Mashable’s Ray Wong writes:

“This time around, I think Hero 7 Black really distinguishes itself from a smartphone camera. The stabilization, while still a little lacking for low-light recording, is stupendous. Compared to shaky and difficult-to-watch footage shot with an older GoPro or smartphone camera, the Hero 7 Black’s stabilized video is actually enjoyable. I want to go out and shoot a short film with all kinds of epic pan and sweep shots just because I know I don’t need to use a gimbal or invest in a crane.”

Regularly $399.99, you can save $70.99 and get it for $329.
