We dumped GoPro & chose Action Hero for its jaw-dropping 4K Ultra HDR Footage... and because it's 5X cheaper!

I remember the day I purchased my first GoPro. I walked out of BestBuy excited... yet feeling guilty that I just spent almost $500 on the camera, memory & accessories.
I also remember 2 years later as I sadly watched our GoPro and all accessories float away in the Colorado River rapids. OUCH!!
As heartbroken as I was, I had some comfort knowing that we captured some really exciting vacations with our GoPro and my purchase was well worth it.
See, while our friends like to travel to fancy beaches, we prefer a real adventure. From driving down dirt roads to see an active volcano, swimming with sea turtles, white water rafting in Colorado, skateboarding in Venice Beach... or just proposing to my wife at the top of a mountian and then zip-lining to the base (very true story)... we're never shy of an outdoor adventure and we want it all captured!!
"While we like to jump out of things... we don't just jump into things."
Having an Action Camera, like the GoPro, became an absolute necessity for us. After shopping around, reading dozens of reviews, doing our homework and learning about 4K Video, FPS Frame Rates, Stabilization, Ultra HDR... we came to the realization that there are alternative cameras which are better, stronger, and much more affordable.
We found that less and less adventurists like ourselves were buying the GoPro, because the alternative cameras have the
same high-quality performance, but cost 5X times less. We made the easy decision to dump GoPro and order the
Action Hero 4K Camera.
"This 4K action cam is a great GoPro alternative for 5 times cheaper"
This is the camera that everyone keeps talking about! Whether you're an aspiring travel blogger or extreme sports fanatic, you're going to want a quality action cam to record your adventures. Our
Action Hero 4K Camera packs quite a punch and serves as a fantastic sports camera. The camera itself feels extremely sturdily built.
The quality of the 4K Ultra HD video and audio is completely breathtaking and you can't help but be impressed. Ohh, and this thing boots FAST! It's turned on and recording in a split second.
Whoah! Okay, this is impressive!
The images and action shots we get with the
Action Hero 4K Camera itself are definitely 4K! It's sharp, clear and looks FANTASTIC. We are totally thrilled that we're getting much better pictures than we got with, the GoPro... ShmoPro.
The
Action Hero 4K Camera can capture everything from kayaking in freezing temperatures with breathtaking panoramas in stunning detail. It also gives us peace of mind that we don't have to ever worry about water damage to the lense or breaking it. This thing is build solid as a brick... which is very impressive, especially for price.
We've been using our Action Hero 4K Camera for 2 years!
If you're the kind of person who plays any type of sports or outdoor activity, you've probably considered buying an Action Camera.
Even if you don't like outdoor sports and would rather spend your time at a resort relaxing or playing golf, an action camera is perfect to take with you. You'll get that unique action perspective that can never be captured or replicated with a cell phone or traditional cameras. We see that

If you're asking yourself "Should I get a GoPro?"... 2 years ago, my answer would have been "ABSOLUTELY!". But if you ask me again today, my answer will be "ABSOLUTELY NOT! Save your money and get an Action Hero 4K Camera".
"With Ultra HD 4K, it has even higher resolution than my old GoPro, so our images are much sharper"
Having the Ultra HD 4K resolution is now a must-have for any camera. The last thing you want is to have epic footage snorkeling with sea turtles, only to find out that the video quality is so poor that the footage is barely visible.
"Yes, it fits all GoPro accessories, so I can jump into a pool, or dive off a cliff with confidence!"
When we lost our GoPro and the accessories in the Colorado River rapids, we were crushed. One of the best things about the GoPro was the accessories. We really loved the Headcam attachment and the Handle Bar attachment.
When we decided to purchase the Action Hero 4K Camera, we were extremely excited to learn that it's 100% compatible with GoPro accessories, unlike many other action cameras.
One of the greatest things about the Action Hero is that you can put it in the waterproof case and scubadive pretty deep underwater.
"I knew exactly what I was looking for and the Action Hero 4K had it all, plus more!"
We just purchased another Action Hero!
That's right. We're the proud owners of two Action Hero 4K Cameras. We both wanted to have our own camera and using a cell phone just didn't cut it.
Sure, your phone is great for casual snaps, but we both wanted the same quality video and photos from the Action Hero.
The new Action Hero 4K we just purchased has everything we wanted, plus more, at the same low cost. It came with everything we needed right out of the box, including a big, powerful battery for long lasting, all day footage.
The new Action Hero has an updated waterproof shell, which we like more than the GoPro shell. No more worrying about saltwater or sand. The new shell also clips securely on my helmet or anywhere I want.
It's so compact, we keep the new camera mounted behind our rear-view mirror.
We also noticed that the new
Action Hero 4K Camera has new features to allow us to upload directly to our social media and built in WiFi, so we don't even need a laptop to post our photos to our Facebook, YouTube, or Instagram.
"With the built in WiFi, we can post our photos on Facebook & Instagram in just a few seconds."
The Conclusion... "Just do it!"
The new camera was such a steal. We purchased it directly from Action Hero and it didn’t require me to make another costly visit to BestBuy and waste hundreds of dollars on new accessories and memory. It came with everything we needed and

here and see if they still have any available. If they do, I strongly suggest getting one for yourself! Anybody else love their Action Hero as much as us? Please let us know in the comments below.

My son just turned 3 and I bring this camera to record everything he does. I don't know if I'm obsessed with my son, or the camera hahaha

I'm also guilty of keeping the Action Hero in my backpack. You never know when your child is going to do something crazy... like hit a home run... or another child HAHAHA

I like to consider myself a black-diamond skiier. I wont hit the slopes without my Action Hero. I also used to have the GoPro, but the picture quality wasn't great. The 4K quality of the Action Hero is on point. WIN!!

I actually dropped my Action Hero down a black diamond slope this winter. It slid down the slope about 3,000ft all the way to the ski lift. Picture me snowboarding behind it chasing it down the mountain haha. the funny thing is, I wasn't even worried about the camera, I wanted to make sure nobody stole it. When I got home and checked it out, the footage was AWESOME!

I just got mine. Holy sh*t I totally saved 35% and got some free stuff using one of the links above! I was going to buy a GoPro for my trip to Utah. Thanks for the great tips.

Where can I get one? My son is a bodybuilder and I want to get him one. He takes a lot of selfies but it's okay because he's handsome :)
