Pros

  • I have done some researches and I am probably going to get DJI Action 6.
  • DJI Action 5 or 6 better low light, less overheating, longer battery runtime
  • Long time GoPro user newer DJI Osmo Action 6 user. I don't see any scenario where GoPro wins here, especially if you're not color grading your underwater footage. ... While DJI might not look as good after grading (it's close), I don't h...
  • i've seen people say action 6 almost has no heat issues, but it seems more for shallower water
  • The DJI Action 6 is your only alternative if you need that.

Cons

  • Although, as much as I hate the flop release the Action 6 is for me, that might be vaguely useful for me as I sometimes mount the Pocket 3 on top of my main zoom cam, sideways, and use it to film in 3K30
  • I didn't like how action 6 processed night video
  • DJI's Action 6 is also pretty capable... Imo I think their colors out of camera are a little too saturated, but if you do any color editing you can fix that. The 5 and 6 have built in storage, which is nice.
  • Its a good camera, dont get me wrong, but its just not as good as the Mission 1 in basically every possible way. ... If you want a point and shoot camera and like more "poppy" colors, the action 6 is a better buy. Its more of an Instagra...
  • My friend borrowed it for a concert tho, and she complained that the footage looked pretty blurry when zoomed in (even though IMO the overall picture looked amazing at a glance).

Long time GoPro user newer DJI Osmo Action 6 user. I don't see any scenario where GoPro wins here, especially if you're not color grading your underwater footage. ... While DJI might not look as good after grading (it's close), I don't have to grade it at all for good footage.

if you want to record 2h+ then you need a dji action 5/6 and depending on the resolution you would also need a powerbank to get unlimited recording

Action 6 for video, it can record 1:1 ratio so you can render 9:16 for TikTok, 16:9 for YT, 1:1 for Insta off just 1 take without compromise to resolution if that's your thing.
