GoPro Hero 10 Overheating: 40 Tests Later

In this case, after nearly a month of testing the GoPro Hero 10 Black in daily use (actually, two cameras), I posted my full in-depth review. In any event, after launch, I had seen some reports of overheating on the Hero 10. Of course, overheating of cameras and action cameras is nothing new. Be it past GoPro’s, or even my phone – in the right hot conditions a camera will overheat. Generally speaking, such overheating usually comes from lack of airflow over a device – something that didn’t really impact my previous GoPro Hero 10 testing.

What I thought would be a simple video ended up turning into a rabbit hole of astronomical proportions. Some 40 tests in all, including dive cases to the bottom of the lake, superheating my bathroom to 104*F, and a never-ending bout of cycling in circles to try and figure out when and where it’ll overheat. There’s some pretty interesting surprises in there too!
