![]() That makes switching video modes difficult. Moving Timelapse mode didn’t bother me that much once I figured it out, but what it means is that you can’t save presets here in the main menu like you can in the Black. It’s when you click to change your video settings that you’ll also find Timelapse, along with all other special modes like Star Trails, Light Painting, and so on. But in the Quik interface for the Mini, there is only one button: Video. In the interface for the Black, there are three shooting modes: Video, Timelapse, and Photo. At first, I thought the Mini did not support Timelapse mode because it’s not a menu item in the Quik app. The app works fine, and the transition from screen to app is easy-the app is mostly the same menus as you get with the screen interface, with one notable exception. Even the shots where I am not going to be monitoring them constantly-like when I’ve strapped the Hero 11 to the front of my paddleboard or surfboard-I still set up everything using the rear screen. Until the Mini arrived, I’ll confess I had never really used the Quik app to set up my GoPro. There is technically a tiny LCD on top of the camera to show you things like the current shooting mode, but to frame your shots and delve into settings, the Mini requires the GoPro Quik app. The Mini eliminates at least the possibility of this happening. ![]() The big screens on the Hero 11 Black are the most vulnerable points, and most of the destroyed GoPros I’ve seen usually have cracked screens or lenses. ![]() This has the distinct advantage of making the Mini more rugged. To save that space, GoPro got rid of all the screens on the Mini. Where it's smaller is the width, which is 20 mm less than the full-size camera. The Mini is technically about 4 mm thicker but the same height as the full-size Hero 11. That doesn’t sound like a whole lot, and in some ways, it isn’t, but for situations where wind resistance and drag are factors-on your motorcycle helmet, for example-it’s a big enough deal that any size reduction helps. The Hero 11 Mini is 13 percent smaller than the Hero 11 Black.
