I'm only 3 minutes into this, and I have to pause to say: Wow. Just wow. If more unboxing videos were like this, I'd actually watch them. Coherent, well thought out, expedient. Simply excellent. As truly impressed as I am thankful.

[@JordanHetrick]

Thanks so much for the awesome comment! I'm happy to help out!

[@RoamingWithRobert]

extremely grateful for this thorough video. GoPro has failed in this regard. They should pay you for this video.

[@freshgino]

I totally agree

[@makenac2130]

AGREED

[@RamosFamilyReMIXED]

Vaporflux seriously man!!!

[@jacobrose-seiden5091]

Very true!

[@chrisnotap]

Amazing voice control! I set up my session as I went through the video and with every command you gave, my camera reacted! It even shut off at the end when you said turn off!! Pretty cool.

[@eaglescout7165]

Chris Notap why did you get it 3 years later? Just for it being so compact?

[@metals2546]

The finest tutorial on youtube. Many thanks for making a needlessly challenging menu system relatively easy to navigate.

[@Gatorbucs1]

Honestly one of the best instructional videos I have seen.. As much as I only wanted to confirm something, this did a great job of making sure NOTHING was left out. Well done!!

[@deviceology9251]

A most informative and thorough review, most helpful. I was'nt decided before but you convinced me and i have subsequently pulled the trigger on this device. Nice work fella

awesome I just got the hero 5 session and I'm in love

[@rbonn3880]

This was fantastic. I had no idea my Go Pro Hero 5 Session could do most of these things. I feel like a fool for not understanding for so long, but I feel great knowing now how it works.

[@keyricortez1186]

I found this extremely helpful, thank you! Now to get my GoPro ready!! (:

[@graywoulf]

I just purchased a used HERO 5 Session and this video was priceless in helping me to get started with it. Thank you very much Jordan for a very professionally made how to video on this camera.

[@JordanHetrick]

You are very welcome!!! Thanks so much for the comment!

[@LouiseNeveu]

Could not have started using my new GoPro without your excellent video instructions. Thank you so much.

[@helenwitherspoon9872]

Very well made tutorial. No unnecessary rambling. Thank you.

[@pinkyheart9784]

I was so confused when I first had my GoPro Session but you made it all so easy. Thank you so much!

[@JordanHetrick]

Happy to hear that the video helped out! Thanks for watching :)

[@30jgarcia50]

Very clear instructions !! It took me from opening the box to using the camera very quickly and complete, Went straight out to our outing filming from here.

[@highdefp-rm7zg]

Thanks a lot , just bought a 5 and your vid was great to get underway really quickly .. better than the manual

[@KaiTiura]

This is a really great vid! Concise, instructive and gets everything in one easy to follow vid. Thank you for such a clear introduction to this great camera! I can't wait to get mine in a few days, and I'll be looking back at your video to set it up and start capturing some cool images!!!

[@toddgriffith3313]

Great, easy to understand video that covers the basics and gets you ready to start using it. Thank you.

[@davemcdermottt]

Great tutorial. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to remove the camera from the mounting base. Thanks.

[@sandiwalker5676]

Thank you for this excellent video! My entire family appreciates it!

[@JordanHetrick]

Cool to hear that your entire family watched the vid. Thanks for watching!

[@geofferyeves5402]

Jordan, thank you very well done. I went out and purchased the GoPro Hero 5 Sessions, despite it now being an older model, after viewing this TH-cam video. The video quite apart from being an excellent instructional video also demonstrated the advantages of the optional features that were suitable for my work purposes. It was simple and straight forward to follow, including choosing the correct GoPro download applications. It has piqued my interest for other activities and adventures. I would agree with an earlier user comment that you certainly should have been rewarded or recognised by GoPro. Regards, Geoff

[@MrUSELIKS]

Thank you so much! It is still useful in 2K19. I love u and your work man! :D I checked more your videos and they also helped a lot!!!!

[@ShirlBussman]

Jumping from 3 to 5. Wish I had seen your video when I was figuring out how all the GP logic works. Got it now but definitely learned some new tips by watching this.
Keep up the good work and good luck with your channel.
