Looking at GoPro's - Owner thoughts?

Ok,

So looking at a GoPro, either a Hero 5 Session, or a Hero 5, possibly 6 - Who has one and what are the thoughts on the Session compared to the 5/6?

same and in the couple years I have had I cant fault it and it came with all the different attachments
and the waterproof case.

Have had the cheap ones, and IMO they just don't compare...

I cant compare mine against a proper go pro, ive only ever used mine for fishing its get put on the end of
big bankstick and shoved under the water under the trees the see where all the bigger carp are hiding,
didnt really want to lay out for a proper go pro for it to fall off the end of the bankstick and sink to the
bottom of the lake never to be seen again and knowing what im like with gadgets and phones when im
fishing its only a matter of time

Lens is too wide angle for 'happy snaps'.

It depends on use, if you want better Audio though id go for a GoPro Hero 4 Silver or Black!

Go Pro Hero3 - not yet seen the need to upgrade

what you want to use it for? I'm not sure I'd need to the extra resolution or fps...

I seriously considered in purchasing one but had to way up the value for money.

I opted for using my iPhone as an alternative - as it was more cost effective for my needs.
