GoPro’s latest flagship, the HD Hero3+, arrives with a series of noteworthy upgrades that make it a compelling choice for both enthusiasts and professionals.
Key enhancements include:
- 30 % sharper lens technology for clearer, more detailed shots.
- 20 % reduction in size, giving it a slimmer, more ergonomic form factor.
- Improved low‑light performance for vibrant night footage.
- Faster Wi‑Fi connectivity and upgraded audio quality.
- Battery life extended by up to 33 %, translating to longer shooting sessions.
The Silver variant now supports 1080 p at 60 fps and 720 p at 120 fps, expanding its versatility for high‑speed filming.
Pricing: the existing HD Hero3 Black will be discounted to $329, and the Silver version to $249. The new HD Hero3+ Black retails at $400, while the Silver edition is priced at $299.
We expect to receive hands‑on access to the HD Hero3+ this weekend and will share footage once we have had a chance to test it in real‑world conditions.
