@@trevor.johnston I’m not a content creator and also it’s only use is for holidays but if your not going to one there’s not really a point of getting it
really hope they release Go4 next year with 4k video and improve low light quality.... small form factor is a huge win, they should just release black color first... white seem a bit too intrusive for me
4k would amazing! The Ace Pro is also an amazing option; just been testing it out the past few weeks, although it doesn't have the removable pod like the GO 3.
It's a great little camera, great for POV shots. However I just returned mine as it wasn't great for low night. Will most likely get the Insta360 Ace Pro.
Yes. While GO 3 is in the Action Pod, it will continue to be powered, but not recharged. You may connect the Action Pod to an external power source to charge while shooting, but please be aware that this may affect the battery's lifespan.
That's called a "c-stands". You can try googling it to look at its size. It's quite big and heavy, usually used for filming/ photoshoot to hold lights or light modifiers. It's not included in the Insta360 package. He just stated it as a passing remark or FYI (for your information) for those who are in the media industry that the mount is compatible.
stabilisation is super jittery on insta 360 go 3. did not expect it to be so bad. asically anything u shoot when moving , u getting jittery footage. and itd now dark or something. i even use nd filters for it. still same .
What about when editing via the Insta360 software? They have a stabilisation mode called "FlowState". Have you tried that and did it make a difference?
@@JustTheHighlights actually yes . I found that u gotta switch off low light stabilisation and leave everything in standart then just need to keep flowstate in the app and export through the app then it is pretty stable and not so juttery if light conditions are alright
Yeah definitely works well! I tend to export all my footage from the desktop app since I edit everything on my computer. But exports still look great coming from the phone and you can still select the output resolution and bitrate. :)
Hi thanks, quick question: if you mount on body or chest are people 12 inches away from you distorted? I am a make up artist and looking for a POV camera for tutorials. This looks cool but im not sure how it works w close subjects. Thanks!
I really enjoy the go. Three review. Personally. I still live in the past as I use a GoPro max for all my videos. And when I am not using a GoPro Max, I am using a DJI action three camera. Both do the job.
Can someone answer my question please .. i have a go 2 and im thinking of buying just the pod action .. because of the screen .. my question now is would it work ? Is my go 2 and the pod for go 3 work ? Or not
Unfortunately they aren't compatible with each other. The GO 3 will only fit inside the GO 3 action pod and the GO 2 will only fit in the GO 2 pod. Good thought though!
What about for us who go on trips and want to take videos, not content creation but for memories? I used to ride motorcycles and used Contour, Garmin cams etc. But, for a car road trip what do you recommend? I really don't like the Go Pro.
Yeah, I think it's great choice for memories on trips! If you haven't got one already I definitely recommend getting the newer GO 3S since it's got better image quality.
How is it like the quality of the footage under low light situation? I mean I know we can expect wonders, but what’s your opinion on the output if you were going to use it in a disco for example?
Does the battery drain even when it’s turned off like the GoPro does? I used to have to take out the battery every time I wasn’t using it otherwise I’d get to it and it would be drained.
Nice video, but how can you leave out this really important part: HOW LONG DOES THE BATTERY LAST??? How much time can you record with the tiny cam, and do you get more time if you click in in the screen-box ??
Thanks so much gor thus review, any comments about battery life and how the lifespan of the battery migjt imply the end ofvthe camera? 🤔 Any idea whether these go cameras can have their batteries replaced? Thank you
Great video and thanks for all the tips, the only thing I'm trying to find out before I get one of these is how people are mixing the content of the Insta 360 Go with their 4k. This video for example was shot in 4K and you have sample images from the Insta 360 (that doesn't shoot 4K) mixed in with your review? Are you just dropping the 2.7k footage onto the 4K timeline and the software then upscales the content? Thanks..
Thanks for the video Nick, much appreciated. I have looked at reviews of the Go 3, X3, Ace Pro, Osmo Pocket 3, and iPhone 15 ProMax and am having trouble deciding which one to go with. I am a magician that wants to get reactions of the people I perform for, as well other simple video of venues and me performing magic. The biggest piece is I don't want to do any post editing (meaning I get the video and can do what I want with it then and there without any downloading or extra computer software). Ideally, I shoot the video, maybe do some sleight editing (simple color correction, cutting the video down, simple transitions) on a phone or tablet (with no transfer of files), then post that video to RUclips or Instagram. Do you have any thoughts for what might make the most sense for this? Thank you!
Hmm good question! I'd say if you want to avoid too much editing, then avoid the X3 as you'll probably need to reframe most shots. Are you wanting first person shots as you do the magic? The GO 3 would be a good choice if so, since it's easy to clip to your chest or hat. Otherwise the Ace Pro & Osmo Pocket will likely give the best image quality. iPhone 15 ProMax would also give you great footage and obviously can do a lot more than just film, but its the most expensive option. Hope that helps!
What kept me from getting this camera was the lack of the 1/4 inch attachment on the camera itself (not on the "case" as mentioned by this reviewer). Like, what is the point of making the smallest camera and then not giving you an option of attachment (beyond buying the "wrap-around" gopro type of mount that looks like a kind of stupid afterthought in my opinion)? If I'm supposed to use the disassembled pivot stand AND the case, I can probably do better with just going straight with a gopro camera. And no, not everything is steel ( for the magnetic attachment to work) and not every steel surface gives you an angle you desire. Also, I don't live in a region of permanent summer and I doubt the magnetic disc would work with anything but a thin shirt. However, now that I read about the underperforming stabilisation, I'm rather happy I did not pull the trigger on this one.
I believe the pendant disk is actually quite strong. Probably wouldn’t work through a thick winter jacket, but it looks plenty powerful to go through a hoodie. And it would be nice to have a 1/4 attachment but that would make it substantially bigger.
I own one the problem was if you tried to manually choose your choice of setiing it would be jettery also gyro tend to tumble upside down causing the vid to do sideways also weak at low light mostly to many option that does not really translate to good experience
How long does it take to wake up till it is able to record? This is a huge feature, if a camera can record almost instantly. I missed so many shots, because the Go2 takes so long to start recording (also phones have that issue and I hope the iPhone 16 brings a shutter button to instantly take shots 🥔)
Ive had the go3 for 8 months and the battery in the pod is lasting less than 10 min. And it seems the battery is lasting less everytime. I use it for Mountain bike.
I am thinking of buying the Go 3 so of course the Go 4 will come out the second I buy one. This very same thing happened to me when I bought a DJI Pocket 2 and was so bummed about the lack of wide angle lens, then like a week later, the Pocket 3 came out 😩
Hi Nick and thanks for making the video, like you I am also a Sony camera user, main camera being the mirrorless 6400. We also have a Sony RX100 III that we use as a Dashcam on our long distance road trips but unfortunately the tilt screen broke off so now we use the viewfinder for looking at the menu etc. Seeing your video has made me think that the Insta 360 could be for us but it would need to be attached to our PGY CAPLOCK Three Arm Suction Mount that lives on my door window (right drivers side) but I see that the Insta360 Go 3 does not have a 1/4 inch tripod thread so hoping we can make this work and that our suppliers have the other bits available.Your thoughts on this . and does it not come with a USB cable for loading your files onto the desktop does it need to be the App for this, so no WiFi no files on your desktop what happens when you are out in the field ( camping) with no WiFi .. Cheers Glenn v from NZ
Hey Glenn, thanks for the comment. The 6400 is a solid camera! In terms of the GO 3 or 3S, it includes a quick release mount that has the 1/4in thread so you'll be able to still attach it with that. It just doesn't have the thread in the actual camera. It also includes a USB cable in the box which you use to transfer files to your desktop app, so no wifi is needed. Hope that helps! :)
I haven't tested how far it gets before disconnecting but it will lose connection if it's too far away or if there's too much blocking the signal (water for example). Within a few meters I've never had any problems though :)
Like the reflection of a light something my camera has a light green glair you think 💬 🤔 I need to fix the white balance or calibrate the white balance so won't get this greenish color popping up on the screen it does it more inside the house but when I go outside it's good you cud look at the screen and it's clear clean shots coming trough hmm..if you know anything what may be causing this let me know please.
Hello 🙋♂️ I want a camera for POV while talking to people on the street , it is better that the camera be as small as possible that the people do not see it or at least do not see it so fast at the beginning of talking :) Do u think it is the best choice if I buy and use the magnet to attach to my chest ? Or do u prefer something better ? :) Thank u 🙏
Depends on your mode and resolution but with the 128gb model I'm getting 3 hours and 16 mins in 2.7k 25fps in the freeform video mode. Which would be hard to use up! In standard video mode I'm getting almost 6 hours of recording time with the same resolution.
@nickkendall thank you for this. Super useful. I'm considering this for my helicopter training flights. How's the movement sensor and horizon level, are you happy with it when on the move? Hard to tell from video, might be that youtube dims the quality of the video. Thank you a lot! Elina
Like any other 360 degree camera. Their marketing name for it is "invisible selfie stick" but in fact any straight selfie stick will be invisible as long as it is thin enough at the end where the camera attaches. In fact, there is no camera that can truly record spacial 360 degree footage. The "invisible" selfie stick is simply in the blind spot of the camera.
I've owned the x2 since release. Like the comment above if you're referring to the "invisible selfie stick" then that is all algorithms and software. The cameras "brain" knows where the selfie stick "should" be and edits it out of of the video.
I bought the SJCAM 300 as an alternative cause I am cheep. It’s configured differently but the outcome is the same. Granted the video quality isn’t as good ( but not bad) but it was $119 versus $400. Sometimes cheaper alternatives are good. And I don’t work for anyone. Retired old guy.
The Go3 is the only disappointing purchase i've made from Insta360. And i own every camera they've made. For one simple need, the Go3 was not an upgrade from my Go2. The Go3's camera does not have the haptic feature built-in. The only way to know i've turned it on is to keep the beep active or light on. There are times i don't want to disturb others around me with noise and there are other times i don't want a bright blue light beaming from the camera. Moreso, if i'm recording video of a reflective surface i don't want that noticeably bright light on. Yes, the camera's charging pod has the haptic feature... but what's the convenience of that? i would have to hold that pod in my hand every time to "feel" if i turned on the camera? Defeats the purpose of a small, discrete, wearable camera for B-roll. I wish any youtuber would have pointed this out and i would have held off buying it. And the Go2's design made its case an enclosure around the camera so as to protect the lens. Not the Go3 !!
Ngl the 3s should be the standart of go 3 at first place, why they make it to 2 version, and if they call it an update why they put high price just for the camera only one, it should be around $200-250 since people already had the pod which is the core part to make it usable. And why they love putting 50fps ?
Files are so large and it requires so much compressing of the file when recording that the battery overheats in the unit shuts off. Additionally you’ll only get a 15 minute video before the battery is dead if it doesn’t overheat. And a 15 minute clip can be as large as 4 GB. When you use the application and download it to your phone it takes forever. And if it’s running on it’s on battery power you can forget about using the camera when you’re done transferring the file. You have to wait for the camera to cool down before returning it to its home base unit to be recharged Which takes additional time.
@@NickKendall That’s what I thought no proof only talk. It’s no wonder you have so few subscribers after being on RUclips for so long. The proof is in the pudding!

because he's sponsored and doesn't want to make it look bad
It's a great little camera, great for POV shots. However I just returned mine as it wasn't great for low night. Will most likely get the Insta360 Ace Pro.
The Ace Pro is amazing; got a review in the works coming soon.
Hi.. im thinking of buying the go 3, but if i may ask, can we still able to record while charging the body pod? Like using powerbank
Yes. While GO 3 is in the Action Pod, it will continue to be powered, but not recharged. You may connect the Action Pod to an external power source to charge while shooting, but please be aware that this may affect the battery's lifespan.
3:27 which stand is it? Thanks. Great video.
That's called a "c-stands". You can try googling it to look at its size.
It's quite big and heavy, usually used for filming/ photoshoot to hold lights or light modifiers.

Such a cool video. Thanks! By any chance do you know if the included software allows you to anonymize faces/number plates easily ?

Do you know if the pod is sweatproof? Thinking about getting this for recording running video. But afraid the pod is not sweatproof
I'm not sure the pod is sweat-proof; it you attached it with a harness it might have enough distance from body to avoid getting wet though.

Like a phone in windblast, there is no deadcat on it so you hear the wind. These days you can fix some of that in post with software or AI.
Is this waterproof?
The camera outside of the case is waterproof, yes! The action pod just isn't waterproof.
Can anyone tell me how exactly the X3 camera captures footage that makes it look like a drone ?
Like any other 360 degree camera. Their marketing name for it is "invisible selfie stick" but in fact any straight selfie stick will be invisible as long as it is thin enough at the end where the camera attaches. In fact, there is no camera that can truly record spacial 360 degree footage. The "invisible" selfie stick is simply in the blind spot of the camera.
I've owned the x2 since release.
Like the comment above if you're referring to the "invisible selfie stick" then that is all algorithms and software.
The cameras "brain" knows where the selfie stick "should" be and edits it out of of the video.
Can you charge with a power bank to extend the life?
Absolutely! :)
I bought the SJCAM 300 as an alternative cause I am cheep. It’s configured differently but the outcome is the same. Granted the video quality isn’t as good ( but not bad) but it was $119 versus $400. Sometimes cheaper alternatives are good. And I don’t work for anyone. Retired old guy.
The problem with go 3 is the battery.i wish its removable.so you can have extra battery
What about the battery since he didn't bother
Ok, I’m sold. I’m getting one. Thank you🙏
Hope you enjoy it! :)
two bad it doesnt have a replacing when empty battery system and the so famous and simple 1/4 hole under!
Does it really has a FREE CASE AND TSHIRT?
Yep!!
Thank you for a great review. I have been looking for a camera like this for ages! Cannot wait to get one and start using it.
My pleasure! :)
The Go3 is the only disappointing purchase i've made from Insta360. And i own every camera they've made. For one simple need, the Go3 was not an upgrade from my Go2. The Go3's camera does not have the haptic feature built-in. The only way to know i've turned it on is to keep the beep active or light on. There are times i don't want to disturb others around me with noise and there are other times i don't want a bright blue light beaming from the camera. Moreso, if i'm recording video of a reflective surface i don't want that noticeably bright light on. Yes, the camera's charging pod has the haptic feature... but what's the convenience of that? i would have to hold that pod in my hand every time to "feel" if i turned on the camera? Defeats the purpose of a small, discrete, wearable camera for B-roll. I wish any youtuber would have pointed this out and i would have held off buying it. And the Go2's design made its case an enclosure around the camera so as to protect the lens. Not the Go3 !!
But you start talking about the cons without even talking about the image quality? Did I miss something?
I hate this camera. It doesnt have avideo recording limit like the go 2
😂
Hi! Can this connect to a intercom system because of the mic? For motor riders?
What a great video! Thanks for this!
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Ngl the 3s should be the standart of go 3 at first place, why they make it to 2 version, and if they call it an update why they put high price just for the camera only one, it should be around $200-250 since people already had the pod which is the core part to make it usable. And why they love putting 50fps ?
This is a neat alternative to GoPro i feel. Thanks!
You bet! :D
Very helpful thanks , subcribed 👍
Glad it was helpful and thanks for the sub! :)
If the black one has the grippy texture, I know it will eventually degrade and become tacky.
I don't think this will; it's a texture on the solid plastic, not a rubber or outer casing. :)
@@NickKendall good to know! Thanks for clearing that up!
Nick Kendall Thank you for posting.
My pleasure! :)
Awesome video, thanks!!
Thanks for watching! :)
Good review, im getting one now.
Enjoy it! :)
I loved this video so much!!! (my wallet didn't though 😩) Great review!
I feel your pain! Thanks for watching!
BATTERY?????
Files are so large and it requires so much compressing of the file when recording that the battery overheats in the unit shuts off.
Additionally you’ll only get a 15 minute video before the battery is dead if it doesn’t overheat. And a 15 minute clip can be as large as 4 GB. When you use the application and download it to your phone it takes forever. And if it’s running on it’s on battery power you can forget about using the camera when you’re done transferring the file. You have to wait for the camera to cool down before returning it to its home base unit to be recharged Which takes additional time.
I've actually never had the battery overheat; I also just did a test and the camera recorded for 2 hours straight before the battery when flat.
@@NickKendall prove it. I don’t believe you.
@@NickKendall That’s what I thought no proof only talk. It’s no wonder you have so few subscribers after being on RUclips for so long. The proof is in the pudding!
Are you sponsored by insta360?
They don't pay me, but they do send me the cameras for review and they never dictate what I say.
I wish the next version will be 4k 60fps and black,
Lol putting that little guy on a C-Stand is hilarious
😅
I'm sold on the freeform
It's great! :)
Without the case battery lasts like 15 mins on 4k this is a pointless purchase specially at that price tag
With the new low price on dji action 4, nope not worth it for go3
it’s waterproof
Yes! Just not the pod.
No USB-C microphone input support is such a disappointment
Das Problem bei dem Teil ist: Die Videoqualität ist echt Müll.
Could the last person to leave GoPro please turn off the lights.
They can't even make their basic cams work properly, buggy AF.
So like Go Pro, just you know, it works.
