GoPro HERO 13 Review – The Ultimate Camera Guide [2024]

We’ve been busy putting the latest action camera to the test in our GoPro HERO 13 review! Let’s dive into the new features, mods and upgrades to see if it’s worth upgrading your gear to the newest GoPro HERO13 Black.

The wait is over, and it was worth it. We’ve had our hands on the GoPro HERO13 Black for a few weeks now, and it’s everything we hoped for and then some.

This isn’t just an incremental tech upgrade – it’s a serious leap forward complete with new creative accessories that’s going to change how you capture your adventures.

Whether you’re diving into the deep blue or scaling mountain peaks, the GoPro HERO 13 is your ultimate sidekick, ready to deliver jaw-dropping footage every step of the way.

There’s a hell of a lot to be excited about.

The new 1900mAh battery is a game-changer, giving us up to three hours of recording time at 1080p. Or two full 1-hour scuba dives in Palau on the one battery – yep, honestly.

No more worrying about your camera dying mid-shoot. The HERO 13 is built to keep up with your most epic adventures.

And then there’s the new lens mods. There’s the Ultra Wide Lens—capturing a 177-degree field of view which like seeing the world in a whole new way.

Perfect for those expansive landscapes or getting up close and personal with your subject, without losing any of that sharp detail.

Like getting up close though? Throw on the Macro Lens Mod for, you guessed it, insane macro shots with an incredibly short focus point.

Or get real creative with the new Neutral Density (ND) filters, where you can slow the shutter right down in the middle of the day to introduce motion blur.

And if you’re into cinematic shots, the new Anamorphic Lens Mod is a dream come true, which creates widescreen footage with signature lens flares – like having a Hollywood camera in the palm of your hand.

But where the HERO 13 really shines is in its usability. The new magnetic latch system makes mounting the camera a breeze, and it feels more secure than ever.

Plus they’ve thrown in a new magnetic door latch with power cable so you can keep the unit charged up in the elements during long time lapses.

All of this, plus the continued excellence in stabilisation with HyperSmooth 6.0, makes the GoPro HERO 13 a must-have for anyone serious about capturing life in the most vivid, dynamic way possible.

But we’re in 2024 after all, and it’s expected for a camera to get better and better every release.

And with so much…
