Telesin vs. GoPro Hero 10 battery comparison

Hi, I’m Charlie. Today I’d like to show you a comparison between the original battery of GoPro Hero 10 and one of the cheap options available on Amazon, the Telesin battery and charger kit.

GoPro Hero 10 Telesin battery kit

It’s not a sponsored review, I bought this charger double batteries combo kit with my own money. Just want to share my experience and opinion with you. 

Unboxing

The Telesin charger and two batteries come packed in this not too big white box. Let’s open it! Not much in it, we have a folded user manual, one side is in english, the other is in chinese.

They also gave us a usb charging cable. It’s only a cable, without a charger. One end is USB type A, the old kind, goes to the phone charger, the other end is USB type C, goes to the battery charger. More about this later.

End for last, the battery charger box itself.

It has a nice design, a cubic shape with rounded corners. Hard plastic, as most of the products today, but feels nice in the hand.

The lid is magnetic. Inside we can find two additional batteries for GoPro Hero 10 or 9. The extra sd card is not part of the package. 

Price

On Amazon you can pick the charger itself for around €26, or you can opt for a pack of 2 or 3 additional batteries, as well. This Telesin charger with 2 batteries costs €50. The package containing 3 batteries is about €65.

The charger works with up to 3 batteries at the same time, and it needs about 2.5 hours to reach 100% level of charge.

Another advantage of this charging box is that you can throw it in your camera bag, plug it into a powerbank and be able to charge batteries on the go. Of course, not as fast as using the recommended 5V 2.4A mobile charger.

A fairly strong magnet holds the lid very well. The batteries snap into place, even with the lid open, the box holds them inside. You can even shake the box, they will not fall out. With the charger lid closed, the charger box can be shaken even harder, the batteries are secured.

The USB C connector is backlit.

There are three leds on the front of the cube, one for each charging port. Each led has three status colours. Red when charging, yellow if almost done, and green is “ready to go”.

Telesin Battery endurance test

The original GoPro Hero 10 battery lasts about 1h 20m at max. if recording 4K 30FPS video. Sadly, in this test my camera turned off after 1h 07m due to overheating. After turning the GoPro on again, the battery was 17%.

For comparison, the Telesin battery discharged completely under 1h 8m. The settings of the camera were identical for both recordings. 

Conclusion

NOT recommended by 1europhoto.com


After days of use, my opinion is that Telesin batteries are not much cheaper than the original ones to be worth buying them.
However I like the charger very much.

If I had to make a purchase again, I would buy only the Telesin charger, and the additional 2 batteries directly from GoPro.com.
(Of course, with GoPro’s Subscription instead of €19.99 for just €15.99)

I hope this information was helpful for you.
