If you don't need 4k you can still get the session 4 for $145 from walmart. The thing I love about the sessions is they turn off when not recording the battery life on a charge is awesome because of that. For the extra couple bucks I would still probably grab the 4k versionThe session series has been discontinued. There is a bit of remaining stock at retailers but once its gone well its gone. $179 right now on Amazon for a hero 5 session is a great deal for a 4k camera of its quality and features. Just grabbed one and going to mount it on the back bimini cross pole to capture tow sports.
FWIW I have tried the nopros (knock off go pros) in the past. Don’t waste your money on those as the fisheye effect is bad, picture quality is poor, and forget about it operating in high or low temps.
Also when buying accessories only true go pro brand, true ram mount brand, or billet aluminum generic ones are worth it. I have had lots of issues with nopro mounts.
Honestly never tried it says on the site the session 4 and 5 work with the app. I'm not telling you to get a session over the 5 as the 5 has lots of different functions that maybe important to you that just are not important to me for my uses. Def do your research before pulling the trigger on one I just found the session more convenient for me most of the time. The only time I use a full size go pro any more is if it is a set up shot or video and I wan't to use my handheld gimbal for to get a clean shot or pan.Does the session connect to the app on your phone?
