Garmin has brought out some amazing technology lately, and the Garmin VIRB Ultra 30 Action Camera, is no exception. It looks much like a GoPro and functions much like one, but that’s where the similarities end.

Starting off with the recording quality, we’re pleased to know that the VIRB Ultra 30 records in Ultra HD.

G-Metrix features a built-in GPS and external sensors that can be connected to other Garmin devices that captures performance data like speed, elevation, heart rate and G-force. See image below.
