Not particularly impressed with the build quality.

Upon unboxing, I was amazed at the cheapness and feel of this suspension. What is amazing from GoPro. The included clip was difficult to install at the seat belt attachment point. Forget about easy access to the adjustment screw after installing the camera, not as shown in the picture. But I think it fits.

Pros
  • Sea of Positive Emotions
Cons
  • Legacy Model

Not like in the photo! You will receive a "Performance " model.

No plastic bib as shown! I already have a "Performance GoPro Chesty" and the soft material makes too much noise as it moves over my body during activity. I wanted the original hard plastic mount, which I find slides easier over clothing and is quieter. The mount itself is of good quality, just not what is shown in the photo. And your sound will squeak when you use this one.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Expensive

Unlike some fake chest straps, this item actually fits an adult.

The best thing about a real GoPro chest strap is the length of the straps. This thing can be adjusted for an adult, while some cheap fakes have straps that are short enough to only fit a child. I tried a few fakes available from Revain, realized they took my life and decided to try a GoPro product that ended up working. a cheaply made product, all said and done. But in my opinion, the jump in price is worth it to have a product that really suits me.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Durable

The best fastening system on the chest.

I like the offset of the camera mount, the alignment of the lens to the center of the body. Because GoPro, apart from the Session series, has a lens shift; This will bring your vision back into balance. Other third parties don't offer this setting and the resulting footage is annoying (on the one hand more than the other). The first image is a 3rd party chest mount and the second image is a GoPro chest mount. The only thing I don't like about this pendant is that it's made in China like so many

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • A few little things

but fits well. - Camera mounts and clips

I ordered this for outdoor use. The product was well packaged but it didn't have the instructions needed when we need to know how to put the clips in and more, it's less of an adjustment issue and more of a holder clip issue. Thumbscrew is logical. If you have a GoPro Hero 4, you should consider how to mount or remove the camera. again. The instruction manual would be a great help for this product. overall looks and feels sturdy and well built. I would have given it a full 5 stars if there were

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Well, no frills, you can record what you're doing hands-free.

First impression is good, have used it in kayaks and it has worked well. However, this isn't the easiest accessory to use with the life jacket, so keep this in mind if you're into any water sports. It's fairly easy to adjust the angle up or down as desired, and removing the camera from the mount to change batteries isn't too bad. It would be nice to be able to turn from side to side while kayaking as currently you can only turn your torso, but for the price it's overpriced. Overall a good…

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • Weight

Legitimate GoPro Product

At first I thought I had a baby chest strap when I first put it on as it was very tight, but then I was able to adjust the straps and it's very comfortable to wear. When I bought it I was hoping it was an official GoPro chest strap. and I bought it based on the photos and its 5 star reviews. While waiting for it to arrive I came across several 1 star reviews stating 'This is not an official GoPro product' and 'The images are misleading', 'The genuine GoPro gimbal comes with a ' J' valve…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Requires Socket

Perfect for bodyboarders!

If you search "IBA GoPro Highlights" on YouTube you will see that all riders use this chest strap but turn it around so the camera is on their lower back. So when you ride a wave, the camera shoots almost half of your body over your shoulder. I tested it in BIG Surf. 8' - 10' Hawaiian waves every rider will tell you about. You have serious power. Enough to throw you on the reef, drown you, etc. Well, I made an addition to this chest strap: I bought a steel fishing liter. You can buy it at most…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Not sure

Perfect - READ IF YOU HAVE MOUNTING OVERLAP PROBLEMS

This is probably my favorite GoPro accessory aside from the floating grip. The straps are made from a very high quality stretch fabric that looks and feels like it will never lose its stretch. The clips are very thick plastic and the brackets that attach the straps to the mount are metal, the mount is also metal. I have no doubts that this item will last a long time. You might think something like this would be uncomfortable to wear, but it really isn't. Immediately after unpacking I put it on…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Null

Perfect for bodyboarders!

If you search YouTube for "IBA GoPro Highlights" you will see that all riders use this chest strap but rotate it backwards to position the camera on the waist.
