GoPro 3 vs GoPro 4 Comparison: Review of Features, Which Is Right for You?

The latest range of GoPro 4 cameras released on October 5 have come as a pleasant surprise even for those not involved in high action video recording and photography.

Among the new models, is the GoPro Hero4 Silver, which also features touch screen capability. Using this modestly priced model with touch screen capability, means users can record high quality video and use the touch screen as they would in any other touch screen camera or smartphone. However, while average users and housewives might find the GoPro Hero4 Silver Edition appealing, adrenaline junkies will not.

This is because most cameras in the GoPro line cater to those who indulge in extreme sports. For these adventure driven folks, the GoPro Hero4 Black Edition is the best choice, as it can record at ultra wide viewing angle at 4K with upto 35 fps. When compared to the GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition this rate is much higher, as it can only record 4K at 15 fps.

Along with this increased image quality, the GoPro Hero4 Black is also 2X faster than other cameras produced by the company, and its rechargeable battery lasts 3X longer than the battery in the GoPro Hero3 Black. In addition to quality wise enhancements the GoPro Hero4 Black Edition features two ways of connecting to the Internet as it has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

If you look at the price of the GoPro Hero4 Black Edition you can see why it is going to be very popular, as it is being offered at the same price as the GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition in the UK.

As pointed out by Pocket Lint this is a deal clincher for most people who have seen the GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition in action, as they can now get better video and photo quality at the same price.
