New GoPro 9 just came out.

Deal only for this week is $50 off the retail price. Includes 1 year of their subscription unlimited cloud storage, free camera replacement, and 50% off accessories. Also includes a 32gb sd card. This is actually a really good deal considering the camera replacement insurance alone is another $50.

https://gopro.com/en/us/shop/came...aster.html

For $50 more they also have a bundle that includes several accessories.

The major changes from the Hero 8 are a front-facing screen (like the DJI), image stabilization now includes horizon stabilization, and it can record up to 5k video (vs. 4k)

I just ordered one and will report back on the real differences.

I had two hero 7 blacks go "bad" on me and was engaged in a 1.5 year fight with them over replacements on and off, only to find out that two out of three Samsung memory cards I bought off of Amazon as FP slick deals were fakes, and actually what caused my cameras to freeze, crash, fail to give me clear files at random. I felt like an idiot. I was so sure it was GoPro's fault.

Amazon gave me refunds for the cards even tho one was over a year old and I threw them in the trash.

Next memory cards I buy will be directly from Best Buy via price matching to Amazon.

That seems to be the best/safest solution.
Just adding two comments.

First, if you are already a gopro subscriber, they give you an additional discount on the camera. I am not, so I couldn't see what the discount actually was.

When you check out, they break out the subscription cost (49.99) separately from the bundle cost and ask you to acknowledge it. At first, I was confused and thought they were adding this to the total cost, but when I checked out, it wasn't added. I did have to pay tax, and 2-day shipping was free.
Glad they brought back the replaceable lens cover. That's the only thing i don't like about the Hero 8.

I bough 2 evos also but directly from Samsung to avoid the fakes. I too had the same issues. One memory got wiped clean randomly (128gb). The other memory card got an error but was okay. They had me update the firmware. So far I haven't had issues, but I've barely used it since updating.

I have the hero7

Just saying, I'm glad you figured out your issue (and got a refund) but for me it was definitely the go pro since I have authentic evos
Damn. So those cards that failed my test could have indeed been legit but just bad cards from Samsung themselves and not fakes... Ugh.

GoPro Hero 10 needs to have dual memory card slots and write to two at the same time for reduancy me thinks.

A few more comments.

Now that I've purchased the camera, and have the "subscription" it looks like all of the accessories are at least 30% off, and two of them are 50% off.

They've changed the battery again. It is not compatible with the 8. Looking at the specs, the 8 battery is 1220mah, and the 9 battery is 1750mah, significantly larger. They are claiming at least 30% more runtime. bummed my old accessories won't work but happy that it is at least for a good reason.

That there is enough to not make me upgrade.

Quote from Kostian :
Who can explain text from GoPro below:
If GoPro subscription is purchased as part of a bundled camera promotion, customer may cancel the subscription portion of the bundle post purchase and acknowledges they will be charged the full retail price of the camera.

is it mean that you cannot cancel your subscription during the first year and you gonna be automatically changed for 2nd year? and only after that you can cancel?
From the support of gopro, if this is your first time subscription, you get 30 day Trial. This mean you totally get about 13 month, then you can cancel it at 13th Month.

Giving it a shot, was overdue from an upgrade from an old 4 black. I used a virtual CCN with a October 2020 expiration date, and the order went through. Additionally I found a review over on TechRadar that implies that you can cancel after one year, but I agree the exact wording is a little ambiguous.

Worst case though, it's a extra $50 hit for year two (granted they would have to send a bill with the expiring CCN), but about half of that was made up on the additional discount on the accessories. Just some thoughts.

I am already a GoPro Pro subscriber and it appears I get the privilege of paying $50 extra for the camera without getting the 1 year subscription. When I check out without being logged in, I see the following:

Hero 9 Black $299.99
SanDisk Extreme® 32GB microSDHC™ FREE
1-year Subscription to GoPro: $49.99

When I log in, I see the following:

Hero 9 Black $349.99
SanDisk Extreme® 32GB microSDHC™ FREE

Chatted with their support, at first they said you can't mix promotions. Wasn't trying then pretty much said the price should be $349.99 already having the subscription and and $400 if you don't.

Quote from laxal50 :
Might be a noob question here, but does the GOPRO PLUS-subscription discount on accessories apply to subsequent orders, after you're subscription is officially live? or can I purchase the H9 *non-bundle and then add on the additional accessories in the same order and get the discounted price on my selected accessories?
Yes.. once the sub is in your cart, the whole site reflects the discounted prices of accessories. Add everything to your cart and see.

In fact, since future orders have a $50 minimum for free shipping, it encourages you to either buy everything you want now, or hold off so you'll have at least $50 in your next order.
