This GoPro remote from Suptig is a good choice If you want to save money and don’t mind going down the unofficial route. When cycling, I personally use this handlebar clip which makes for an elegant gear setup. The wrist strap can be adjusted to attach to all kinds of gear. Included in the box are a key ring and wrist strap. Though I don’t find myself using this button much, it’s definitely a neat addition.
Third-party options and even GoPro’s previous Wi-Fi remote do not let you change settings using the remote. One of the key features of the Smart Remote is the ability to change settings using the remote. It lets you add HiLight tags to mark key moments and the LCD display lets you know things like the remaining battery life and how long you’ve been recording. It’s also manufactured with GoPro’s high standards, meaning it really is waterproof up to 33ft (10m) and operational at a 600ft (180m) range in optimal conditions.Īs you’d expect, you can power your GoPro on and off and hit the record button to begin recording remotely. The natural upside of that is better compatibility with existing and future GoPro models. Once again, being an official GoPro accessory, it costs slightly more than unofficial options. It’s not the oldest official remote, however, as it succeeds an even older remote called the “GoPro Wi-Fi remote”. The GoPro Smart Remote is GoPro’s official remote accessory for GoPros that preceded the GoPro Hero 8. Its maximum range has also been reduced from 600ft to 196ft, although the 600ft estimate for the previous model was arguably a bit too generous. It’s not a straightforward upgrade over the older model, however, as “The Remote” can only connect with up to 5 GoPro cameras simultaneously, down from 50. The whole pairing process is also faster than before. Perhaps the best upgrade over the original smart remote comes in the form of increased battery life, thanks to the newly implemented Bluetooth® Low Energy. This reduces the chances of needing to squint to see your camera status. Removing the other buttons from the face has also made for a bigger, higher resolution screen.
Because the only button on the face is the massive shutter/record button, the risk of accidentally pressing another function is eliminated. Not an awful lot has changed since its predecessor, the GoPro Smart Remote, but it comes in a smaller size and arguably has more well-thought-out button placement. This is compatible with the latest GoPro models (GoPro HERO9 Black and up), and while it’s pretty expensive, I would recommend getting this over unofficial remotes because it’s just not worth dealing with complications in the future. The newest remote for GoPros, GoPro has decided to simply name it “The Remote”.
