GoPro Hero is worth considering as a reliable outdoor action camera option — especially now that it’s discounted to $179.99 at Amazon for Black Friday. That’s $20 off its usual price of $199.99. While not a massive price drop, this deal offers a chance to snag a solid entry-level camera for under $180.

The GoPro Hero keeps things simple, which is part of its charm. This model records in 4K Ultra HD and captures sharp 12MP photos. It’s designed to take on a bit of rough-and-tumble, with a durable, waterproof build that can handle depths up to 16 feet. Whether you’re heading out for a hike, snorkeling trip, or skate session, this camera is a solid companion.

HyperSmooth video stabilization is one of its standout features, helping to smooth out bumpy footage. So, even if your adventures get shaky, your video won’t. With a 1.76-inch touch screen, it’s also intuitive to use — there are no endless menus or complicated settings to navigate. Just point, shoot, and let the camera do the heavy lifting.

The included GoPro Quik app makes managing footage straightforward. Plug the Hero in to charge, and it’ll automatically upload your clips to the cloud, organize them, and even generate highlight reels. It’s not a complete editing suite, but it’ll save you some time.
