So I purchased this a month ago and have had a lot of fun with it. This was my first experience with action cameras and I think this was performed great. The tiny camera shoots in 4K for about a half hour by itself and even longer with the docking pod that works as a camera charging station, a control hub, and camera viewing screen. The accessories that it comes with are the charge cable, unscrew-able lens guard, magnet pendant and hat clip that allows POV (Point Of View) chest and cap mounting, and a magnetic (and metal safety clasp) pivot stand with a reusable adhesive base that you can [temporarily] stick to surfaces. Video quality is great with the resolution going up to 4K at 30 FPS (Frames Per Second). But I noticed this tiny camera gets pretty hot while filming, and it does not last for very long without a charge. Other cons I noticed is that it doesn’t sound good in the wind, as there is a lot of wind noise (even with a wind muffler), and the low light visibility is not that great but honestly I don’t fault it for that because of what it is and what it can do. So what can it do? Well, the biggest pros I can think of off the top of my head are that it can fit in small spaces and the camera itself is waterproof. This leaves millions of opportunities for new ideas with access to new places to film from, like taking weird camera shots to improve creative content. The docking pod is not waterproof, but no biggie; I don’t always need to use the docking pod when filming with the camera anyway, especially since I don’t intend to swim with it. Besides, there are other cameras better designed for underwater usage. In conclusion, this goes above and beyond what I originally thought I needed it for. The accessories allow fantastic flexibility in usage, and improved performance with the Go 3S. They enable it to be more than just a camera, but an experience with limitless opportunities abound. Sure it may not have a big sensor for good low light visibility or perform better than any of the flagship cameras to any standard, but I do not expect it to. I like it because of its size and what it does for me. Together with the ability to create new and interesting content and not to mention the user-friendly editing app, I am expressly satisfied and feel encouraged to explore with my Go 3S. What’s more is that I fully intend to get more Insta360 accessories and to seek out their future product releases. This was my first action camera experience and from it I can wholeheartedly recommend this product for photographers, content creators, vloggers, or any picture artists that are looking for something unique to tinker with.

I can do a long video review of this camera and all the others like it from instant 360 and other companies because I've owned so many at this point. Here's the quick and dirty. The camera itself is waterproof The case is not. That's something to keep in mind when purchasing this camera. The second thing to keep in mind is that it has an internal battery and internal memory and also that it cannot connect to you an external mic. Those are all the downfalls of the camera but the major upside is it size. It's about the size of your thumb. I have The previous model as well which had the case that looks like an iPod case and in a way I like that case better for what this is worth however the screen does make a difference because it allows you to see what you're shooting. The best part of the screen exclusive to insta360 is that it flips up and around so you can see yourself when you're shooting. This is less important on this camera because you can take the camera out of the pod but still it's a great feature to have. This is like the baby brother of the Ace pro model. It has some of the same features but not all of them. The advantage of this camera is that it comes out of the pod and you can attach it literally to anything and get amazing shots. I use it while rock climbing and attach it like a headlamp and you get great POV shots. In fact you can get great POV shots anywhere in it anytime. I've seen people attach it to their pets and basically get POV of their pets walking around or what it's like to be that pet. That's where this camera really shines is those POV shots. That being said it also does shoot in 4K and also it has a mode that allows you to shoot both horizontal and portrait at the same time and choose later do you want it for YouTube or social media. In addition the app that comes with the insta360 products is incredible. I'm was a huge insta360 fan boy from day one and camera one even though the company refuses to show me any love with test products or anything like that. One other negative not that I think about it is that the pendant that came with the camera broke and when I contacted insta360 they never really did anything to resolve it. I actually have another from the previous camera so it didn't bother me but I have read online that their customer service is lacking which I've seen for myself but like I said I like their products. I have at least six or seven of their cameras and each one has a different function and has been innovative for what they do. The x series 360 cameras are amazing as they shoot in 360 and then you can edit later what you want to frame. The downside of that is the post-production editing which for me means tbs of the footage from 92 countries which I never edited because I'm too lazy. Enter this camera and it's older brother which allowed me to get quick shots for social media with less editing and also The app itself has AI editing which makes things a little bit easier to pose quick videos which you can export immediately to your phone. Again not to be negative but I want to be clear the real issue with this camera is the battery and the internal storage. If either fail your camera is done you can't swap them out and as I said the action pod itself is not waterproof so you cannot take this swimming like the x series or the Ace series. That said even the pod is very small and can slide in your pocket Even have it with you at all times and the battery life is not that bad. I would say you can get probably two and a half hours of shooting out of this camera on a charge and it charges very quickly. It's just not an all day shooting camera unless you need it to be which is what happened to me last month in Mauritius. As I said I also had an Ace pro….had. jumping off of 50ft waterfall had us part ways when it dislodged from it's mount. The Ace series is like this camera's Big brother which shoots an 8K and is absolutely gorgeous and amazing it also has the flip-up screen but the camera does not come out of the pod like in this camera. It is also a bit larger and heavier but for me on that trip was my major vlogging camera because like this camera it required little editing and also had a suite of AI editing tools through the app unlike the x we still required me to go back through all the footage and not only look at what I saw in One direction but also the whole 360 and reframe everything which feels like would take forever. The x series is great if you're doing something amazing and want to get an amazing Hollywood like shot where you can reframe but as a daily vlogging camera for me at least it's a bit overwhelming to have to do so much post-production. The ace series gives you that clear vlogging and scenery shooting camera for vacations and has swappable batteries and memory cards and can shoot at 8K rather than just 4K. Now the reality is shooting at 8K is probably overkill in fact should you get 4K is generally overkill because most people watch content on their phone and they're not seeing it even at 1080. That said if you're a real stickler shooting at 4K and 8k allow you to zoom in and get all the details and not have " blown out pictures " or whatever else people who have really good eyes for these things and say. Personally all of the footage from these cameras look amazing to me especially when you're climbing and doing action sports. That said that is where the go series really shines because it's so small you can fit it in places where you normally cannot fit a camera. For example I went walking with lions and they specifically said no cameras allowed but I was able to attach the go to my cap and no one cared and all I had to do was touch the button and you got FPV of walking with lions save with swimming with sharks skydiving etc it's such a small camera that you literally can just stick it anywhere and the magnets are pretty good although I became weary after my incident in Mauritius. After jumping off the waterfall and losing the ace due to the faulty amount and having the x stopped working because even though it's waterproof it had to be sealed and it wasn't properly sealed this go became my only camera for the rest of the trip and it worked. I was not able to carry it in the water and had to keep the pod in the waterproof bag however it was able to take over The job of his Lost Big brother The Ace and continue as my main vlogging camera. The only thing was that I had to do more judicious with my battery use and how much I shot because of the smaller internal memory. I personally had the 128 GB unit which when using the more memory intensive modes still gave me over two and a half hours of video but my recommendation would be to buy the larger unit because again the memory is not replaceable and if you're not like me who buys new cameras all the time and you want to keep this for a while it's better to have more and not need it than to have less and wish you'd spent the Little bit extra in my opinion.
Tldr this is a great camera with awesome use cases and some limitations but I would highly recommend for a casual user or someone who wants to use it to get interesting shots or as an action camera to get unique points of view.
Is a tiny yet powerful action camera that's perfect for capturing unique perspectives. With its 4K video, flip-up screen, and magnetic mounts, it's easy to capture stunning footage in any situation.

Whether you're exploring the great outdoors or simply documenting your daily life, the GO 3S is a fun and easy-to-use camera that will help you capture unforgettable moments.
Igual que otro comentario que leí, hice el pedido con mis reservas debido a los comentarios de la publicación, pero rodó llegó excelente trae más accesorios qué si se compra directamente en la página de Insta360. Todo sellado y nuevo. La cámara graba en excelente definición, únicamente hay que tomar en cuenta que si se usa únicamente el bullet la batería no dura mucho, pero es obvio por el tamaño de la misma.
I've had the previous 3 Go cameras and this one is my favorite (obviously) now. I have the 128 GB version in black and the 4K footage is pretty good. Slow motion footage is good too.

I was not able to carry it in the water and had to keep the pod in the waterproof bag however it was able to take over The job of his Lost Big brother The Ace and continue as my main vlogging camera. The only thing was that I had to do more judicious with my battery use and how much I shot because of the smaller internal memory. I personally had the 128 GB unit which when using the more memory intensive modes still gave me over two and a half hours of video but my recommendation would be to buy the larger unit because again the memory is not replaceable and if you’re not like me who buys new cameras all the time and you want to keep this for a while it’s better to have more and not need it than to have less and wish you’d spent the Little bit extra in my opinion.Tldr this is a great camera with awesome use cases and some limitations but I would highly recommend for a casual user or someone who wants to use it to get interesting shots or as an action camera to get unique points of view.

Positive 1st experience with action cameras!
So I purchased this a month ago and have had a lot of fun with it. This was my first experience with action cameras and I think this was performed great. The tiny camera shoots in 4K for about a half hour by itself and even longer with the docking pod that works as a camera charging station, a control hub, and camera viewing screen. The accessories that it comes with are the charge cable, unscrew-able lens guard, magnet pendant and hat clip that allows POV (Point Of View) chest and cap mounting, and a magnetic (and metal safety clasp) pivot stand with a reusable adhesive base that you can [temporarily] stick to surfaces. Video quality is great with the resolution going up to 4K at 30 FPS (Frames Per Second). But I noticed this tiny camera gets pretty hot while filming, and it does not last for very long without a charge. Other cons I noticed is that it doesnât sound good in the wind, as there is a lot of wind noise (even with a wind muffler), and the low light visibility is not that great but honestly I donât fault it for that because of what it is and what it can do. So what can it do? Well, the biggest pros I can think of off the top of my head are that it can fit in small spaces and the camera itself is waterproof. This leaves millions of opportunities for new ideas with access to new places to film from, like taking weird camera shots to improve creative content. The docking pod is not waterproof, but no biggie; I donât always need to use the docking pod when filming with the camera anyway, especially since I donât intend to swim with it. Besides, there are other cameras better designed for underwater usage. In conclusion, this goes above and beyond what I originally thought I needed it for. The accessories allow fantastic flexibility in usage, and improved performance with the Go 3S. They enable it to be more than just a camera, but an experience with limitless opportunities abound. Sure it may not have a big sensor for good low light visibility or perform better than any of the flagship cameras to any standard, but I do not expect it to. I like it because of its size and what it does for me. Together with the ability to create new and interesting content and not to mention the user-friendly editing app, I am expressly satisfied and feel encouraged to explore with my Go 3S. Whatâs more is that I fully intend to get more Insta360 accessories and to seek out their future product releases. This was my first action camera experience and from it I can wholeheartedly recommend this product for photographers, content creators, vloggers, or any picture artists that are looking for something unique to tinker with.

Tiny but mighty …tldr at the end
I can do a long video review of this camera and all the others like it from instant 360 and other companies because I’ve owned so many at this point. Here’s the quick and dirty. The camera itself is waterproof The case is not. That’s something to keep in mind when purchasing this camera. The second thing to keep in mind is that it has an internal battery and internal memory and also that it cannot connect to you an external mic. Those are all the downfalls of the camera but the major upside is it size. It’s about the size of your thumb. I have The previous model as well which had the case that looks like an iPod case and in a way I like that case better for what this is worth however the screen does make a difference because it allows you to see what you’re shooting. The best part of the screen exclusive to insta360 is that it flips up and around so you can see yourself when you’re shooting. This is less important on this camera because you can take the camera out of the pod but still it’s a great feature to have. This is like the baby brother of the Ace pro model. It has some of the same features but not all of them. The advantage of this camera is that it comes out of the pod and you can attach it literally to anything and get amazing shots. I use it while rock climbing and attach it like a headlamp and you get great POV shots. In fact you can get great POV shots anywhere in it anytime. I’ve seen people attach it to their pets and basically get POV of their pets walking around or what it’s like to be that pet. That’s where this camera really shines is those POV shots. That being said it also does shoot in 4K and also it has a mode that allows you to shoot both horizontal and portrait at the same time and choose later do you want it for YouTube or social media. In addition the app that comes with the insta360 products is incredible. I’m was a huge insta360 fan boy from day one and camera one even though the company refuses to show me any love with test products or anything like that. One other negative not that I think about it is that the pendant that came with the camera broke and when I contacted insta360 they never really did anything to resolve it. I actually have another from the previous camera so it didn’t bother me but I have read online that their customer service is lacking which I’ve seen for myself but like I said I like their products. I have at least six or seven of their cameras and each one has a different function and has been innovative for what they do. The x series 360 cameras are amazing as they shoot in 360 and then you can edit later what you want to frame. The downside of that is the post-production editing which for me means tbs of the footage from 92 countries which I never edited because I’m too lazy. Enter this camera and it’s older brother which allowed me to get quick shots for social media with less editing and also The app itself has AI editing which makes things a little bit easier to pose quick videos which you can export immediately to your phone. Again not to be negative but I want to be clear the real issue with this camera is the battery and the internal storage. If either fail your camera is done you can’t swap them out and as I said the action pod itself is not waterproof so you cannot take this swimming like the x series or the Ace series. That said even the pod is very small and can slide in your pocket Even have it with you at all times and the battery life is not that bad. I would say you can get probably two and a half hours of shooting out of this camera on a charge and it charges very quickly. It’s just not an all day shooting camera unless you need it to be which is what happened to me last month in Mauritius. As I said I also had an Ace pro….had. jumping off of 50ft waterfall had us part ways when it dislodged from it’s mount. The Ace series is like this camera’s Big brother which shoots an 8K and is absolutely gorgeous and amazing it also has the flip-up screen but the camera does not come out of the pod like in this camera. It is also a bit larger and heavier but for me on that trip was my major vlogging camera because like this camera it required little editing and also had a suite of AI editing tools through the app unlike the x we still required me to go back through all the footage and not only look at what I saw in One direction but also the whole 360 and reframe everything which feels like would take forever. The x series is great if you’re doing something amazing and want to get an amazing Hollywood like shot where you can reframe but as a daily vlogging camera for me at least it’s a bit overwhelming to have to do so much post-production. The ace series gives you that clear vlogging and scenery shooting camera for vacations and has swappable batteries and memory cards and can shoot at 8K rather than just 4K. Now the reality is shooting at 8K is probably overkill in fact should you get 4K is generally overkill because most people watch content on their phone and they’re not seeing it even at 1080. That said if you’re a real stickler shooting at 4K and 8k allow you to zoom in and get all the details and not have ” blown out pictures ” or whatever else people who have really good eyes for these things and say. Personally all of the footage from these cameras look amazing to me especially when you’re climbing and doing action sports. That said that is where the go series really shines because it’s so small you can fit it in places where you normally cannot fit a camera. For example I went walking with lions and they specifically said no cameras allowed but I was able to attach the go to my cap and no one cared and all I had to do was touch the button and you got FPV of walking with lions save with swimming with sharks skydiving etc it’s such a small camera that you literally can just stick it anywhere and the magnets are pretty good although I became weary after my incident in Mauritius. After jumping off the waterfall and losing the ace due to the faulty amount and having the x stopped working because even though it’s waterproof it had to be sealed and it wasn’t properly sealed this go became my only camera for the rest of the trip and it worked.

Igual que otro comentario que leÃ, hice el pedido con mis reservas debido a los comentarios de la publicación, pero rodó llegó excelente trae más accesorios qué si se compra directamente en la página de Insta360. Todo sellado y nuevo. La cámara graba en excelente definición, únicamente hay que tomar en cuenta que si se usa únicamente el bullet la baterÃa no dura mucho, pero es obvio por el tamaño de la misma.
