Boxing Day Recap: HERO is the Most Popular Camera

Analysts say the $129.99 HERO looks to be the most popular GoPro camera during Boxing Day sales.

Albeit, it’s vague just how much inventory was initially supplied to merchandisers, and retailers the consensus is that GoPro sales thrived over the week.  Currently, the best-seller is sold out in the GoPro online store.

GoPro calls it The Perfect Entry-level GoPro.

Features 1080p30 and 720p60 video, 5MP photos up to 5 frames per second, QuikCapture, SuperView™ and Auto Low Light. Waterproof to 131’ (40m).

According to Amazon.com, the best-selling cameras during this holiday season are GoPro, particularly the base model priced at $129.99 USD.  On Tuesday December 23, 2014 the lock-up on more than 15 million shares expired. GoPro recently accounted up to 6.5% at $65.52.  Both the online market, and stock exchange are showing signs of a bullish position on GoPro.

Amazon released that nearly 60% of its customers used a mobile device for their holiday shopping with propensity towards other bargains late in the season. Historically, the unprecedented Cyber Monday pulled in the biggest number of mobile shopping sales, whilst Black Friday proved to be the highest growth in online shopping via mobile device.

Now widely accepted that GoPro’s products look to be selling remarkably, and retailers believe the camera maker will surpass the high end of its revenue guidance for the holiday quarter. GoPro guided for revenue of $5.5 million and more.
