Not too sure about it.

Ok its $299.00 thats a plus because the hero 3 is that price.

It has a built in touchscreen with video trimming. Awesome!

Built in battery? That means when your battery dies your whole camera is done! Unlike the replaceable battery on the other models.

But.... It cant be removed from the housing. Thats kinda stupid.

Theres nothing from i read (i glanced over it so maybe i missed it) about improved audio. From what ive noticed, GoPros audio is horrible at best.

The main horribleness is when recording with the camera in the housing. Well this new one is non removable from the housing!!

This new one has a internal "mono" mic with NO external mic support.

Well at least you can buy a better mic for the other models and connect it via usb.

I mean seriously my iPhone 5 gets better audio i mean a million times better then the GoPro and honestly i think my iPhone gets better video too.

Then you might say "GoPro is waterproof" ok get a life proof case for your iPhone and it too is waterproof!

I don't know how a cell phone can have better audio and possibly better video recording then a 3-400 dollar camera that was made solely for recording.

I bet they keep the audio crappy so people keep buying new models in hope of better audio?
