GoPro Hero 10 Overview

The GoPro Hero 10 Black is the newest model of the famous brand’s action camera and serves as the successor of the Hero 9 Black. Probably, the most eye-catching upgrade to this model is its new GP2 processor, which makes it the most powerful version of GoPro so far.

However, some still some reviews online that say it’s only somehow a minor upgrade from its predecessor like this one. In this blog post, I will summarize all the important features and specs that you need to know so you can see for yourself and decide if it’s worth the buy!

Important Specifications

For the specifications, here are the highlights about this amazing action camera:

• 23 megapixels for still images
• Single memory card slot
• Can shoot upto 5K Resolution @ 60 frames per second
• Up to 240 FPS shooting with 2704×1520 or 1920×1080 resolution
• Dual-Display (1 rear and 1 front)
• Touch-screen rear LCD display

Other than the 2x power from its upgraded processor, another notable specs upgrade is that you can shoot at 5.3K with double the frame rate compared to the Hero9. It also now has a better photo quality at 23MP, improved HyperSmooth 4.0 video stabilization, and enhanced low-light performance.

One of the huge improvements of this GoPro model is the higher available FPS at different resolutions. That makes it easier for you to create and edit slow-motion video without sacrificing too much of the video quality. Speaking of editing, the GoPro Hero 10 also has an improved Quik app that you can use for editing your awesome clips

Key Features

• Digital Image Stabilization
• WiFi and Bluetooth Supported

• 1720 mAh rechargeable battery capacity via USB type-C
• No tripod mount and accessory shoe
• No built-in light/flash
• Interval Recording

• Creative Effects

For the key features of the new GoPro Hero 10 Black, most of the features available in the Hero9 are also available while some are improved by GoPro. An example of that is the waterproof depth. For the Hero9, the waterproof depth is only around 15-18 feet while the Hero 10 can reach up to 33 feet in depth. Also, it has a much more improved digital image/video stabilization and low-light capabilities.

It is also worth considering that there will be no video output, microphone input, and headphone jack, since there will already be a built-in microphone and speaker for the GoPro Hero 10. For the accessory bundle, it will include magnetic swivel clip, shorty, camera case, 32GB MicroSD camera, and a spare battery.
