Action & pocket cameras

Quick comparison of 2024–2026 action, pocket, and 360° cameras: sensor size, video highlights, stabilisation type, waterproofing, battery, and weight. Models are listed newest first. Price columns link to live Heureka listings rather than quoting figures that go stale.

Note

The 2026 line-up shifted significantly. GoPro skipped the HERO14 Black entirely and put its next-generation silicon into the MISSION 1 series instead; Insta360’s 360° flagship is now the X6 and it entered the pocket-gimbal market with the Leica co-engineered Luna series; and DJI replaced the Pocket 3 with the Pocket 4 and Pocket 4P.

GoPro MISSION 1 series (2026)

GoPro’s next-generation platform, pitched as compact cinema cameras rather than a HERO refresh. MISSION 1 and MISSION 1 PRO reached retail globally on 28 May 2026. The interchangeable-lens PRO ILS followed: pre-orders opened 26 August 2026 with shipping from 2 September 2026.

• Sensor: 50 MP 1” quad Bayer, binning to 12 MP in 4K modes; 1.6 µm native pixel pitch, effective 3.2 µm in 4K; ~14 stops dynamic range at sensor level

Caution

GoPro did not release a HERO14 Black. It skipped a HERO flagship in 2025 and has not launched one in 2026 either as of August, moving the GP3 silicon into MISSION 1 instead — the first break in a nearly decade-long annual HERO cadence. The HERO13 Black below remains the current HERO-line camera.

Note

Neither the Pocket 4 nor the Pocket 4P launched in the United States — DJI shipped both globally while excluding the US market. Availability in the EU, including Czechia, is unaffected.
