The latest action cam will have an improved battery performance in colder conditions and a new feature that automatically edits your videos into a highlight reel and sends it to your phone via the GoPro Quik app \u2014 but you have to be a GoPro subscriber for this.<\/p>\n<p>Other than that, it\u2019s a fairly modest upgrade. That\u2019s why we\u2019re more interested in the Hero11 Black Mini. GoPro put dual-mounting fingers on the back and the bottom of the Mini, making it that much easier to mount and get the precise angle you want. With just one button and no screens, the Mini could be better for those who want a set-it-and-forget-it style of action cam. Sometimes, one button is really all you need anyways.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR CEt\">\n<figure class=\"Qf5 E1M\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:100%;\" class=\"vmZ F8Y ap2\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2022\/9\/14\/8203f4c7-b903-4cf1-9020-fba8421fc3f3-40058011_si10126_-130_hero11_mini_fingers_master.jpg?w=349&amp;h=349&amp;fit=max&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2022\/9\/14\/8203f4c7-b903-4cf1-9020-fba8421fc3f3-40058011_si10126_-130_hero11_mini_fingers_master.jpg?w=349&amp;h=349&amp;fit=max 349w, https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2022\/9\/14\/8203f4c7-b903-4cf1-9020-fba8421fc3f3-40058011_si10126_-130_hero11_mini_fingers_master.jpg?w=349&amp;h=349&amp;fit=max&amp;dpr=2 698w, https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2022\/9\/14\/8203f4c7-b903-4cf1-9020-fba8421fc3f3-40058011_si10126_-130_hero11_mini_fingers_master.jpg?w=710&amp;h=710&amp;fit=max 710w, https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2022\/9\/14\/8203f4c7-b903-4cf1-9020-fba8421fc3f3-40058011_si10126_-130_hero11_mini_fingers_master.jpg?w=710&amp;h=710&amp;fit=max&amp;dpr=2 1420w\" sizes=\"(min-width:768px) 710px, 349px\" alt=\"GoPro Hero11 Black Mini\" class=\"uMj EdX\"\/><\/div>\n<p><figcaption class=\"TrI\">The extra mounting fingers means even more versatility.<cite class=\"hW6\">GoPro<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><u>Mini, but mighty \u2014<\/u> The <a href=\"https:\/\/gopro.com\/en\/us\/shop\/cameras\/hero11-black\/CHDHX-111-master.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" class=\"T3D\">Hero11 Black<\/a> is already available for $500, while the Creator Edition is going for $700.
