    Yes. I have 4 of them and they all work great. They take much better vidoe then my brothers gopro 4 silver. They just are not as user friendly.

    I went with the Replay XD Prime. It is a year old and at the time, it was better than the Go Pro in several areas.
    The bag of accessories are worth a bunch which are included in the price too.
    Can be purchased cheaper from other sites than Replay.

    I can't speak to the quality of the others mentioned, however my gopro hero 4 black takes amazing videos and photos. Very easy to use and durable.

    Try one and you will buy another for sure. If you ant an action came you want to get as many angles as possible. Also if you lose one or brake it you don't really care. You lose your 400$ gopro you will be pissed.

    I lost one of mine when I was scuba diving. So it does happen.

    I've never tested any other brand, but my GoPro Hero 4 Black is unreal. I haven't used it much on my dash, mostly just diving and surfing. It's pricey but awesome and the footage and quality you can get with that thing is amazing. :]

    Here is my most recent video that I put together, all filmed on the GoPro Hero 4 Black in 1080p. I love it and may venture out to an off brand to get another angle. The quality and durability on the GoPro is amazing.

    Make sure you select 1080p when watching

    I'm not sure if it's the case with other companies but I know the customer service for GoPro is top notch. It's US based so they don't send you over to someplace like India where you can't understand them. When I first got my GoPro it had an issue right out of the box that was making all my videos have a static sound. They had me try a few things to fix it but ultimately it didn't work so I sent the old one to them and they sent out a new one for free.

    Did you have any sort of warranty on it?

    use a fishing leader...... pass one end thru the hinge....tie it....... pass other end around a part of the truck and clip the end around the line. ive used this method on the lightbar, mirror, and when theres no solid place to loop around, I use wide masking tape on the other end of the leader.... or whenever possible duct tape (not on my paint tho)
