Has a little color monitor built in, an altimeter and gps, goes 3 hours on a charge. Your videos can display ground speed, gps tracks along with the video.

video side by side comparison with GoPro. I'm not married to any camera but the side by side later in the video (splitscreen) shows the GoPro to be a bit more stable (smaller size? better mount?).

I'm sure accessories will come quickly. Any opportunity to upsell won't be overlooked. I'm sure if Garmin could figure out how to sell you a monthly subscription to update something inside they would (a little dig / humor).
