Anyone into Gopro's?

My son had a 3 and regretfully sold it.
He now wants one again so is wondering Could anyone point out the benefits of either the :
Hero 4 Black
Or Hero 4 Silver.
Cheers

The Hero4 Black's main benefit is that it can shoot 4K video at the standard 30 Frames Per Second, which means that you have the best available quality to benefit from the best TV resolution currently available.
The Hero Silver can shoot 4K, but only at 15 frames per second - which is really of no real benefit, but it does shoot 2.7K, which is still twice what most TV's can display. The Silver also has two other advantages over the Black - it has a built in LCD screen, and is €100 cheaper.
Long story short, buy the Silver!

When the GoPro 3 came out, the black edition was very buggy, while the silver was more stable. I suppose what I'm trying to say is look at reviews on Amazon or somewhere to sew of there's any reliability differences between the two.

I suppose A class 10 extreme micro card?

Would this one do?

Bought the above card as he needs it in a hurry
Read / write speeds seem to be fine for it.

Thanks all.
