Big bulky with way to short of a cable to connect to go pro. Works half the time and I have tried multiple microphone types on it. 9 times out of 10 it kicks out while I’m riding after 2 mins and then just makes a slow fart sound for the rest of the time which is lovely. Don’t waste your money maybe in a few years they will figure it out. Probably not
Produit certe de qualité mais il ne marche pas avec mon micro cravate rode ( dommage je l'avait pris pour ca.. ) avec sous sans l'adaptateur de sortie jack . J'ai essayé divers réglages micro , micro plus etc même résultat...le module est bien détecté par la gopro mais aucun son au record ou alors je zappe un truc :/
Despite having my firmware updated, rebooting, etc, I can NOT get this thing to actually record any audio on either of my GoPro cameras. The USB-C plug can only be plugged in one direction. If I turn it over, both cameras go into an on/off cycle until I unplug it. It must be doing something when I plug it in, because it kills the internal microphones and nothing records at all. But when I plug in my external mic (which is a TRS style), it records absolutely no sound.
Currently there is still some connectivity issue that will result in no sound on some videos. The Hero 9 gives no adjustment for mic gain, so unless you have a lower sensitivity mic then you with get pops and cracks from any sudden bursts of noise. If GoPro implemented a mic gain adjustment or something of the sort and made the connection more stable it would be a great product. As is, it's good for outdoor recording (not motovlogging) when it does indeed connect with the camera and provide sound.
A veces graba, otras veces no. Algunas empieza bien y deja de grabar sonido... Además de ser grande y quedar colgando, porque es más grande que la propia cámara, no queda bien sujeto y da muchísimos fallos de conexión. Pongo una estrella porque no puedo poner 0. En una palabra HORRIBLE.
I bought this device to use with my Hero8 Black. It will not work in any application that needs to have the battery secured because you can't put the retaining cover for the battery back on the camera with the device plugged in. I am sure it works well if the camera is not being used in an application that requires the battery to be held in place. The information in the advertisement does not indicate it is a poor choice for auto racing and any activity where the camera could be exposed to water.
Connection doesn't feel as secure as included cable, it works at least.

It does what it's supposed to, I paid full price before knowledge of the gopro sub. Paid full price for a hero 7 black & unfortunately learned later that I could have gotten both a newer camera and the gopro sub included.
