Thanks to DJI and GoPro for supplying both of these cameras – here’s a real world UK rainy weather comparison of two juggernaughts in the action camera world. Automatic settings and both set to 24fps. Which looks better?

I love the content and presentation, really well done.
The action 4 has a MUCH better image. It's brighter as well. Low light is better as well, more natural looking colors. Any reports of focusing issues? I passed on the action 3 due to all the focus problems.
A concise comparison to the point
My friend just got the dji and it's awesome, i have an insta360 one rs and i want to sell it and get the dji although his fell off the magnetic latch, not sure if it had engaged properly but it could be a problem
I've been watching quite a few reviews on these action cams now, and every single influencer said the same. Unfortunately, the GoPro Hero 12 loses against the DJI by a landslide, to make it short. If GoPro wants to sell its action cams, they need to be much cheaper at around ~200 bucks or sit on top of their cams.
hi francis. What do you think of insta 360? is that a good option for filming rides? (first camera)
Does osmo action 4 has internal GPS?
I love my Hero10… when it works. Currently on my third one, hoping this one lasts but I doubt it will.
What about underwater test?
I thought DJI looked better.
Can you use DJI connected to the USB C poer supply and film longer?
DJI I believe is better in every aspect as well, I have had several of there drones and their cameras in general are outstanding.
What about the Insta360 Ace Pro?
Gopro sucks 🐓
Great comparison and the DJI looked and sounded better in your videos. I would have to go for the Gopro though as you can get waterproof housing for both….the Gopro is rated to 60m the DJI only to 45m and some of the wrecks in Scapa Flow are down at 45m. I don't just ride bikes…..
The audio on the Action 4 is amazing
At the moment as of 08/01/2024 DJI have a sale on and the Action 4 standard combo is £289
I'm expecting my DJI Action 4 this afternoon, but already thinking about sending it back because it does not have HDMI out.
Well done! Yesterday i ordered my Action 4 😀
Because since years i use DJI drones and i am very happy with it!
Dji action 4 absolutely and definitely the winner. Sound better image quality much better. Much more premium built. Thats why i bought 1 standard kit
Great review. THANK YOU
I am wondering if the DJI Osmo 4 has the same Battery , Battery case and extension rod as the OSMO action 3?
Somehow in this video I find the DJI to be much more vibrant and better in image quality. In tons of other reviews though it was the gopro that looked looked better. It almost feels like the labels for the footage of the cameras are switched? Am I the only one noticing this?
Thank you for a comprehensive comparison.
I have been bouncing between GoPro/ Dji /insta for my cycling for a while. I’ve gone with the dji today after watching this among a few other videos.
I just think for the bike the video and stability looked better but the magnetic clip would allow to swap between the bars, chest, shoulder and helmet mounts to give better panoramics while riding.
My Go Pro journey, Hero 4 Silver, Hero 7 Black, Hero 10 DJI Action 3.
Great comparison. Thank you. The only thing I would have liked added is the weight and potentially a quick discussion on the accessories. Well done and thanks!
The highlights on osmo look terrible the shadows on the GoPro look terrible haha
My only issue with the action 4 is that FOV is too wide. Linear mode on GoPro 12 gets you 4k but only 2.7k on the Action 4. This makes standard recording on the 4 look way worse.
Yay! Can't wait for mine. Just bought a DJIA4
which is better in hot weather? which dies quicker?
The Gopro had much better dynamic range and exposure when you have a bright cloudy sky behind a darker foreground. You can't undo the overexposure on the DJI but you can certainly fix the underexposure on the gopro. With that said, GoPro has issues with their firmware and they still can't get it right. I have so many overheating issues and "not enough power" warnings since the Hero 4 that the Hero 11 is going to be the last GoPro I ever buy.
