The original GoPro HERO was a handy little action cam that captured amazing photos and videos in high definition. And as amazing as the old model was, it lacked a viewfinder, so you were unable to see what you filmed until you actually filmed it. However, the new GoPro HERO, which is now on sale for $154.00, adds a two-inch touchscreen viewfinder and a few more useful features that make it even better.  

This new model is perfect for vacations and traveling, with its compact and durable body. The new GoPro HERO is also waterproof for at least 33 feet, so you don’t have to worry about breaking it when capturing the action when diving underwater — unlike a smartphone.

In addition, the action cam features all-new voice controls for hands-free navigation. Just say “GoPro, start recording” or “GoPro, take a photo” and the new GoPro HERO will do the rest. It also connects directly to iOS and Android smartphones with the GoPro App, so you can off-load photos and videos for easier sharing on social media.

But don’t just take our word for it. Amazon customer M. Serna writes:

“A friend of mine had amazing photos and videos from a trip to Tenerife, she said she used the hero stating the only thing it lacked was a screen to preview the photos. The new hero has a screen! I tested it inside, i have a cropped lamp. Wide angle table shot. Then outside in low lighting without WDR setting (should have with as the quality would have been better). Anyway- wide- medium- and narrow same shot all 10mp. This camera is perfect for my travel needs, i ordered an additional battery and an aftermarket waterproof selfie stick/tripod that allows for good camera stability.”

The new GoPro HERO, which usually retails for $199.99, is now on sale for $154.00, or $45.99 off, on Amazon.
