GoPro Hero4 Session

I have been sourcing for a in car camera for a while although my current one is still working. It is a low cost no brand camera which works ok. Once in a while, it can become buggy and I have to redo the settings.

So I decided to get a better one for standby. There are many good in car camera out there, but I am kinda looking for something that can be put in the car and to be able to bring outdoors if there is a need. After researching, I came across GoPro Hero4 Session which was released last year. It is a cube like action camera. But the price was pretty steep (top up a bit more you can get the silver version).

I am not really into the other variants as it seems to bulky in a way to me (although it is pretty small). And after a couple of months it has a pretty drastic price drop, I guess it is to differentiate the models due to their respective specifications.

After the price drop, it seems more reasonable. Locally, there is a motor show and they have promotion which includes a free 32GB microSD card. Total it will be 300SGD. Otherwise, it will just only be the camera itself.    

As for the reviews on its image quality etc...it can be found on youtube and websites. Some say it not bad, some says it not good. Depending on your requirements, it may or may not be suitable. For me, it suits my application well. Unlike their original design, many settings has to done via the free app or the optional remote control.
