cheap gopro
No one expected GoPro to be so successful when it invented the action camera back in 2004. But here we are, and here you are thinking of buying one.
If you’ve landed here looking for a cheap GoPro – you might be disappointed as these things are the best of the best and don’t come cheap. But we’ve rounded up all of the best GoPro deals so that if you do want to buy one, you can make sure you get the best possible price.
What’s a good deal?
Well that’s up to you. We’ve ordered the GoPros on this page in order of prestige – at the top we’ve placed the brand new GoPro Hero4 Session which offers all the best GoPro features but in an easier to use model, followed by the rest in order of performance – the cheapest ones are found further down the page!
1. GoPro Hero4 Session

If you’ve always wanted to buy a GoPro camera but were put off by the advanced, pro-level functionality found in GoPro’s HERO4 Black, you’re in luck – GoPro has announced its most user-friendly camera ever: the HERO4 Session. Operating the HERO4 Session is easier than it is on any of GoPro’s other cameras, with a single button used to perform the majority of its functions – a short press of the shutter button turns the camera on, starting video capture automatically, a longer press powers the camera on and switches it to Time Lapse photo capture mode, and you only have to press the button once more to save your recording or photo and turn it off again. Just like with previous models, you can further refine your controls and settings by using the GoPro App or Smart Remote.
