Next-Gen Tiny Camera “Insta360 GO 3” Gets Flip Screen Action Pod, Longer Battery Life & More!

Insta360 announces the highly anticipated Insta360 GO 3, the latest iteration of its groundbreaking tiny action camera. The tiny but mighty GO 3 takes on-the-go capturing to new heights, building upon the ultra-portability of its predecessor with unparalleled versatility.

The camera is truly tiny, coming in smaller than thumb size and weighing only 1.2oz (35g). Its unique magnetic body allows you to effortlessly mount it anywhere, opening up a world of possibilities for capturing unique shots from creative angles. The new Action Pod transforms GO 3 into a more versatile and powerful camera. With the flip touchscreen, you can control the camera remotely and preview your shots even when GO 3 is mounted in hard-to-reach locations. Additionally, when running low on power, GO 3 can be mounted in the Pod to keep shooting for up to 170 minutes.

GO 3 offers unprecedented flexibility, allowing you to capture immersive first-person POV shots, experience life from your pet’s perspective, or explore new viewpoints.

Unleashing the GO 3 Concept: Limitless Creativity in a Tiny Camera

Capturing moments with GO 3 is effortless. Recording on the go is as simple as pressing the front of the camera body, thanks to QuickCapture. The camera’s lightweight and low-profile design makes it a perfect companion for any adventure, whether playing with kids or going on outdoor excursions. Any perspective can be captured in vivid 2.7K, making it ideal for social media sharing.

The camera is complemented by a set of magnetic accessories that unlock its creative potential:

• Magnet Pendant: A circular magnet that can be worn around the neck and sits beneath clothing, allowing GO 3 to be seamlessly worn on the chest for first-person POV filming.
• Easy Clip: An accessory designed for hats, snugly fitting GO 3 above the head for a hands-free, high-angle shot.
• Pivot Stand: A reusable sticky mount with an adjustable design that allows for tricky angles to be shot with ease. The stand can also unscrew to reveal a 1/4” mounting point for attaching to a selfie stick or tripod.

Multifunctional Action Pod: Remote Preview and Enhanced Control

The Action Pod is a completely new innovation, serving as a hub that elevates shooting capabilities. It functions as a housing, remote control, and charger for GO 3 all in one.

The Action Pod connects to GO 3 over Bluetooth through a convenient 2.2″ flip touchscreen, enabling real-time remote control and live preview. Difficult angles, from a cat’s collar to a kid’s bike, can now be easily framed and mastered. The best part is that the Action Pod and the camera are compatible with the same magnetic mounts, ensuring hassle-free setup and enhanced versatility. Running low on power is now easily remedied by simply putting GO 3 into the Action Pod, attaching it to the same mount, and continuing to shoot.

Coupling all of this with an IPX4 water-resistant design for the Pod and IPX8 waterproofing to 16ft (5m) for the camera, GO 3 is perfect for capturing memories anywhere. A signature of Insta360, GO 3 comes equipped with FlowState Stabilization and 360 Horizon Lock, ensuring silky-smooth footage even in the most action-packed scenarios and eliminating unwanted tilting or distortion. A replaceable Lens Guard also comes pre-installed for worry-free shooting.

Remarkable Improvements for Flagship Performance

Insta360 GO 3 addresses the pain points of the GO series, bringing sweeping enhancements to ensure this new generation of tiny cameras has staying power. Software optimizations and a resolution upgrade to 2.7K deliver crisp, vibrant videos. With no clip length limitations and a larger 310mAh battery, creators can keep shooting for up to 45 minutes without the Pod—a 50% increase on the previous generation.

Sporting an additional mic, GO 3’s dual microphones offer clearer and crisper audio over its predecessor. Voice Control 2.0 also comes with this upgrade, allowing for complete hands-free operation of GO 3, no matter the situation.

New recording modes are also available, including Pre-recording, Loop Recording, and Timed Capture. With Timed Capture, you can simply schedule GO 3 to power on and start recording at a specific time. No more waking up early to shoot a sunrise timelapse!

A World of Possibilities with the GO 3 Ecosystem

As is the case with all Insta360 cameras, GO 3 is more than just a camera; it’s backed up by Insta360’s powerful app and editing ecosystem, designed to simplify your filmmaking journey.

FreeFrame Mode enables you to modify the aspect ratio of your footage after shooting, allowing editing for different platforms like a 9:16 Instagram Reel or a 16:9 YouTube video. Unlike other action cameras that restrict you to pre-selected aspect ratios, GO 3 saves all content for sharing in any aspect ratio, offering unmatched flexibility.

Insta360’s infamous AI-powered editing features automatically curate your best clips and edit them into custom reels. The app’s intelligent features and a user-friendly interface allow you to focus on your creativity while the technology handles the rest.

There’s also a whole host of creative modes to create inspiring content, such as TimeShift for hyperlapse montages, AI-powered PureShot HDR for photos with enhanced dynamic range, slow motion up to 120fps, and stunning timelapses.
