Battery
Battery life
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The device's battery life (when in use) as given by the manufacturer. With a longer battery life you have to charge the device less often.
battery power
1160 mAh
Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. More battery power can be an indication of longer battery life.
charge time
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The time it takes to fully charge the battery.
has a removable battery
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
The battery is removable and can be replaced by the user if broken.
has a rechargeable battery
✔GoPro Hero Plus LCD
The battery can be recharged and used over again.
has a battery level indicator
✔GoPro Hero Plus LCD
An indicator shows you when the device has low battery.
Supports fast charging
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
Fast charging technologies, like Qualcomm’s Quick Charge or MediaTek’s Pump Express, are used to reduce the time it takes to charge a device. For example, with Quick Charge 3.0, the battery can be charged to 50% in just 30 minutes.
Audio
More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background noise.
has a stereo microphone
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
A stereo microphone allows to record audio files or movies in stereo without an external microphone.
has a microphone input
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
A microphone port allows connecting external high-end or specialized microphones.
has a socket for a 3.5 mm audio jack
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
With a standard mini jack socket, you can use the device with most headphones.
Optics
The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.
has an adjustable field of view
✔GoPro Hero Plus LCD
Cameras with an adjustable FOV allow users to set view angles depending on their needs. A wider FOV captures a larger visible area, but with fewer details. A more narrow field of view captures less but in more detail and is often used for recording content at a distance.
has built-in optical image stabilization
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
Optical image stabilization uses gyroscopic sensors to detect the vibrations of the camera. The lens adjusts the optical path accordingly, ensuring that any type of motion blur is corrected before the sensor captures the image.
sensor size
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The larger the sensor the more light the sensor captures yielding in better image quality.
With a wider aperture the sensor can capture more light, helping to avoid blur by enabling a faster shutter speed. It also provides a shallow depth of field, allowing you to blur the background to focus attention on the subject.
Has a dual-lens (or multi-lens) main camera
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
A multi-lens camera captures two or more images and overlays them. This technology creates sharper images, especially in low light conditions, and allows you to use effects such as softening the background.
has a BSI sensor
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
A BSI (backside illuminated) sensor is a camera image sensor which captures better quality images in poor lighting conditions, and offers better overall sharpness and image quality.
has a CMOS sensor
✔GoPro Hero Plus LCD
CMOS image sensors are slowly replacing CCD sensors, due to reduced power consumption and better image quality. They can be very compact and cost relatively little to produce.
exposure time
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
When the camera shutter is open for a long time, more light is absorbed by the sensor. You can use this slow shutter speed to produce vivid night time photography, or capture the trajectory of moving objects such as motorway traffic.
Videography
video recording (main camera)
1080 x 60 fps
The maximum resolution available for videos shot with the main camera. Although it may be possible to choose among other frame rates, those recordings usually have lower resolutions.
field of view
150°
Field of view (FOV) is the part of the world that a device can view and record. A wider field of view allows you to capture more of the action.
Has timelapse function
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
A timelapse shows a long passage of time sped up. A series of photographs taken from the same position over a long period is joined together to create a short video. It is great way to capture things like the setting sun, or clouds moving across the sky.
supports slow-motion video recording
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
Slow-motion is an artistic video effect that makes time seem to go slower. It is achieved by recording a video at a higher frame-rate than the standard playback rate of 24fps or 30fps. Depending on camera capabilities, frame rates for slow-motion videos vary between 60fps and 960fps.
Has phase-detection autofocus for videos
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
A phase-detection autofocus system is faster than a contrast detection autofocus system. Even when recording scenes with a lot of fast movements, the videos are sharp and clear.
has continuous autofocus when recording movies
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
When recording movies they stay focussed and sharp.
has a 24p cinema mode
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
24p is a video format (24 frames per second) traditionally used in cinema. Nowadays, it is used to create film-like motion characteristics.
movie bitrate
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The higher the movie recording bitrate the better the movie quality with more and crispier details and less compression artifacts.
shoots raw
✖GoPro Hero Plus LCD
A raw image file contains minimally processed data from the image sensor. Raw files are so named because they are not yet processed and therefore are not ready to be printed or edited with a bitmap graphics editor.
