More importantly for snow sport enthusiasts, the Enduro is GoPro’s first battery that holds a charge in freezing temperatures. It also automatically shuts off after five minutes when not in use, which keeps me from killing the battery accidentally. And it juices up quickly: I was able to charge it from one to 100 percent in under an hour. In its highest resolution video (5.3K), the new GoPro can shoot for up to 80 minutes on a charge, and at 1080P it’ll run more than two hours. GoPro claims the Enduro lasts up to 38 percent longer than their traditional battery, and after a few filming sessions that appears true. GoPro’s extended runtime battery, Enduro, which was an accessory for the Hero 10 Black, now comes stock.

With last week’s release of the Hero 11 Black ($550)-featuring extended runtime battery, auto-upload capabilities, and two user interface options-GoPro might have actually done just that. Yes, you can chalk that up to operator error, but as an entry-level filmer I’ve always hoped that GoPro would eventually produce a Hero to save me from myself. By the time I get it sorted, the moment passed. The experience usually goes like this: see something film-worthy, pull GoPro out, realize the battery is dead. Despite packing them along for plenty of backpacking trips and snowboard sessions, I rarely get good clips to prove it. I’ve owned half a dozen GoPros in my day, ranging from the Hero 2 to the Hero 10 Black.
