Most action cameras have a battery life that is only good for approximately one to three hours of continuous operation before it dies. The amount of time the battery lasts depends on many factors, including the resolution of the movies you capture, whether you have wifi, Bluetooth, or any other networking functions turned on, and how frequently you use the device. The operational duration of a GoPro camera is around two hours on average; however, this number is still contingent upon the resolution and all of the other recording options used.
