SAN MATEO, Calif., June 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- GoPro
(NASDAQ:GPRO) – GoPro today announced an exclusive partnership with
Reliance Digital, India's largest
Consumer Electronics retailer. This partnership will put GoPro's
award-winning cameras, along with various mounts and accessories,
on the shelves of 1800 Reliance Digital spread across 500
cities.
"We are excited with the launch. GoPro fits our value
proposition to bring the latest and industry-leading products first
to Indian customers," said Brian
Bade, CEO of Reliance Digital. "The same camera that can
capture an athlete surfing a monster wave, a child's day in the
park or a pelican's first flight and that has been used in major
Hollywood movies like The Martian,
will now be available to our shoppers."
"We are looking forward to bringing our product to India's young, creative and tech savvy market
and are thrilled to be working with Reliance Digital, a premier
electronics retailer in India.
Reliance Digital's expert store-associates will help educate
customers on GoPro and provide a great customer experience. We view
this as a strategic partnership that brings much more than just
shelves for our products but a true partner to help with GoPro's
success in India," said
Tony Bates, president of GoPro.
GoPro has revolutionized the way people capture photos and
videos of themselves doing what they love to do. Whether it's a
friend's wedding, a day in the park with family or a holiday travel
adventure, GoPro delivers unique perspectives and new ways to
document meaningful experiences. And now, for the first time, three
of the best cameras to capture these perspectives — the HERO
Session, the HERO4 Silver and the HERO4 Black — will be readily
available to Indian consumers through Reliance Digital.
The simplicity of the HERO Session makes it the best camera for
capturing life's moments in unique and creative ways while still
delivering stunning HD image quality at up to 1440p and 8 megapixel
still images. It's small and light design, easy one-button control
and waterproof functionality make it perfect for the first-time
GoPro user who wants the simplest, grab-and-go experience.
The HERO4 Silver delivers high-performance 2.7K HD video
resolution as well as 12 megapixel professional quality photos with
touch-display convenience. The HERO4 Silver is the perfect
camera for a professional as well as anyone who loves to take
photos and videos.
The HERO4 Black delivers high-performance 4K Ultra HD video and
liquid-smooth slow motion at up to 240 frames per second, as well
as 12 megapixel professional quality photos. The HERO4 Black is the
ultimate life-capture solution for those who demand the best.
While these cameras are top-of-the-line, it's GoPro's mounts and
accessories that have changed the way people can video and
photograph themselves and their experiences. GoPro's mounts
and accessories allow people to put the camera in unique places to
capture new angles and creative shots, delivering perspectives that
can't be easily captured with traditional cameras or camera
phones. Reliance Digital will be carrying some of GoPro's
best-selling mounts and accessories, including the Chest
Harness, 3-Way, and Head Strap + QuickClip.
All of GoPro's cameras also feature built-in Wi-Fi and
Bluetooth® technology to enable easy connectivity between a mobile
phone and a GoPro camera through the GoPro App. The GoPro App
enables remote control of the camera and the ability to pull videos
and high-quality still images for easy social sharing. With
GoPro's new video editing apps for mobile devices Quik and Splice,
users can easily and quickly create fun and engaging videos to
share with friends and family.
