Unveiled Prototypical GoPro Camera Emerges: Identifying the Model and Predicting Its Potential to Resuscitate GoPro's Position in the Market
The tech world is abuzz with the latest industry news, as a new, unreleased GoPro action camera model, registered in Indonesia with the code AMLF1, has surfaced. However, detailed key features and specifications for this model have yet to be publicly disclosed or leaked.
The AMLF1 model, while generating anticipation within the tech journalism community, remains officially under wraps. It is unclear whether this new release could revive GoPro's market presence, but no official confirmation or specification sheet is available at this time.
Industry insiders are speculating that the AMLF1 model could potentially be the next-generation GoPro, the Max 2 360 camera, or something else. The GoPro Max 2, a 360-degree action camera, is expected to be a significant product in the market. However, the potential improvements in the GoPro Max 2 have not yet been officially confirmed by GoPro.
Adam Juniper, a tech journalist with 20 years of experience, is the resident expert on camera drones and drone photography. His expertise spans across various product categories, including timelapse cameras, home security cameras, NVR cameras, photography books, webcams, 3D printers, 3D scanners, borescopes, radar detectors, and drones. He has authored books such as "The Complete Guide to Drones", "The Smart Smart Home Handbook", "101 Tips for DSLR Video", and "The Drone Pilot's Handbook".
Interestingly, GoPro has used Thailand for manufacturing in the past. However, the manufacturing location of the AMLF1 model comes with a potential drawback: Thailand is currently subject to 19% tariffs by the USA.
The competition for the best 360 camera in the market is fierce. Recently, the DJI Action 5 Pro has been placed above the GoPro 13 Hero Black in the guide to the best action cameras due to better low-light performance. In sales data from January to July 2025, DJI took first place with 35.3% market share, pushing GoPro down to third place in Japan last month, further highlighting the need for innovation in the action camera market.
The Indonesian certification agency has registered a new GoPro model number, AMLF1, adding to the speculation and interest in the upcoming release. As we wait for an official announcement or further leaks, the GoPro Max 2 remains a subject of ongoing coverage in camera news. Only time will tell if the AMLF1 model will mark a significant comeback for GoPro in the action camera market.
