GoPro’s best-ever action camera gets it first major discount for Black Friday
Stellar savings for the Hero 13 Black
It didn't take long for the first discounts to appear for GoPro's latest flagship action camera, which was only announced in September 2024. You can now pick up the Hero 13 Black + Accessories bundle for $349.99 at Best Buy (was $449.99) and that same Hero 13 Black + Accessories Bundle deal is available in the UK for just £349.99 at Currys as part of the Currys Black Friday sale.
That's a $100 / £100 discount, however, GoPro notes the value of the bundle with all of those accessories as $500 / £500, meaning you are effectively saving $150 / £150 – bargain!
We think this will be the best price for GoPro's best-ever action camera during this year's Black Friday deals. If you'd like to keep an eye out for other action cam bargains, make sure you bookmark our Black Friday GoPro deals 2024 roundup, which also includes a record-low price for the previous model in the UK, the Hero 12 Black.

Price check: £349.99 at GoPro
GoPro has slashed 15% off the price of the Hero 13 Black, and you might think it's a better idea to save yourself $10 / £10 by opting for the Hero 13 Black camera alone instead, which is now $339.99 at GoPro (US) / £339.99 at GoPro (UK). However, it's the Accessories Bundle that truly stands out, which also includes 2x Enduro batteries, a handle, case, memory card, and 2x adhesive pads.
That's a lot of accessories for just $10 / £10 more. Even if you already own those accessories with a previous GoPro model, you can't use your old Enduro batteries in the Hero 13 Black, so the Accessories Bundle is the best value deal for all.
For the money you get GoPro's superb Hero 13 Black, which we called 'a refined flagship with enviable accessories'. Like the Hero 12 Black, it has 5.3K video with a versatile 8:7 aspect ratio sensor plus unbeatable stabilization. What's new to the table is magnetic mounting, the return of GPS, improved battery life, and better slow motion recording, plus auto-detected lens mods that we labelled the 'future of action camera design'.
