GoPro Launches New HERO3+ Cameras, Updates iOS App

GoPro has unveiled its new line up of HERO3+ cameras that are smaller, lighter, and have better battery life. The company also updated its iOS companion app to support the new cameras.

"We saw that we could make the HERO3+ significantly smaller and lighter while at the same time increasing battery life 30%. We saw the opportunity to design a sharper lens, so we did it–improving GoPro’s already highly regarded image quality. And we thought up exciting new features like SuperView, which enables the world’s most immersive wide-angle video. These are all features that we as passionate GoPro users want for ourselves, and we’re excited to share them with our customers around the world," said Nicholas Woodman, Founder and CEO of GoPro.
