Action 4 sale ends on the 15th, and this is announced on the 19th. If the Pro isn’t worth it, you’ll have to pay 10% more.
@Mason Not sure whether to grab the Action 4 on sale or wait for the 5.
@Valerian $30 extra to wait and see what the Action 5 Pro offers. Only you can decide if it’s worth it. The Action 5 Pro will cost $130 more than the Action 4 on sale, so if that’s too much for you, go ahead and get the Action 4 now and save the $30.
@jud I thought the Pro was going for $299 based on the Australian leaks?
@Rowen Other leaks show Euro pricing, which could put it in the $400 range.
@jud There are some videos on YouTube showing it.
@Valerian Buy it from somewhere with easy returns, then see what the Action 5 Pro offers and decide later.
@Mason Any UK prices for the adventure combo?
Would be awesome if the Osmo 4 batteries worked with the new model.
@Washington The new batteries are higher capacity but look the same size. Hopefully, the Action 3/4 batteries will work with the Action 5 Pro and vice versa. GoPro did something similar a few years ago with their Enduro battery upgrade, but this year they changed the pin configuration, which broke compatibility.
Think it’ll have ProRes?
Hope they include a 1-inch sensor.
No GPS is a big downside. GoPro brought it back in the 13 because people complained. I’d switch to DJI if it had GPS, maybe we’ll see two versions like GoPro? Wishful thinking.
I really wish they’d make another FPV drone or put a discount on the Avata. I want one so bad but can’t afford it.
Looks amazing!
I was just looking at this. I have an Action 2 (which sucks) and need an upgrade. Been debating between the new GoPro Hero 13 or waiting for this one.
@Oliver_james Same here! I’m still using a GoPro Hero 7 White. It only shoots 1080p without stabilization. This should be a huge improvement over the Hero 13!
@Elizabeth I don’t think it’ll be better than the Hero 13. The only big advantage is the bigger sensor, which might not always be a good thing.
I was really hoping for the Mini Pro 5 announcement. I’m on the fence about getting the Mini Pro 4 for my trip in November, but now I’m waiting to see what comes next.
@Alexis There aren’t any rumors about the Mini 5 Pro coming this year. The Air 3S will be out by the end of the year, Mavic 4 early next year, and Mini 5 Pro next summer.
