Sorry for the low quality audio, I've shot this video using my phone and its built-in mic.
Let me know if I am missing any important area. I didn't have enough time to work on this one and I reckon I missed important parts like the overheating issue on Action 2.

This was a great comparison and it’s nice to know how well the go2 does in the comparison. Thank you for such a thorough video.
Fantastic comparison and exactly the test I was looking for! Thank you!
The moment Action 2 was announced I was waiting for this comparison ^_^ thanks
Great review! Touched all the important points and let us see the similarities and differences. Thank you!
This is the most honest and real user review I had ever seen! Thanks Alex, I am going to buy the go 2!
dont go for the hype of this video, buy the action 2 , i had the go2 and return it, it sucks, action way more complete camera, etc etc, and its from dji, so that means they work very quick in firmware updates, unlike the insta 360, if you are woriied about the overexposure set it to manual, gopro 10 is the same
@@rjsvids why did you send the go 2 back?
@@rjsvids Sorry to hear that Ricardo. Ive been looking forward to buying a camera and I've joined the insta community for a while. They seems to listen to users and I saw their frequent updates (at least 2-3 after i joined for a few months). Dji looks like copying the concept of go 2 and ONE R. I don't like copycat. Gopro is too expensive for me and they launch similar products every year. Thanks for your suggestions anyway!
@@rjsvids OA 2 is a bit overpriced, and it looks like a baby of gopro + oner/go2. can someone sponsor me to afford one? I will tell the truth without being biased. Or I should wait for OA 3?
@@georgelee7451 cause i coudnt , so i already sold that piece of junk
By far. the best review I've seen in a long while!
Go 2 vs Osmo action 2 was the comparison I wanted to see. Thank you!
Exactly 👍🏻
This is one of the best comparisons I've seen so far. Good Job Alex! ✌🏻
I agree
This is the exact comparison I had been waiting for. Bien hecho, españolete
Thanks for making up my mind. Will stay with the GO2 !
Looks like the action 2 seemed crisper overall. I didn’t like the way the 360 synced and didn’t allow for external Sung Sd cards. And it seemed to overheat easily
Perfect. Thanks for sharing you experience with these two devices. I'm curious about battery life when using image stabilization...how long do the batteries last when shooting in this mode?
This was a fantastic review. Amazing and clear comparison. 👌👌👌👌👌
Great review, earned my sub
Been wondering about Go2 since I first saw it in some other vlog. Wanted it then but forgot the name of it and couldn't remember which vlog I saw it in. This is the first "see it in action" and comparison vlog I landed on. That said, I used your link. You got something, and I got a little something from them too. We both win! Thanks for the video.
Thanks dude! Happy to hear you liked the video and I hope you enjoy this beast of a camera. Where do you plan to shoot with it?
Thanks for your video, it helps a lot !! Good job :)
I already have the go 2 but watched this because I was curious, watched it all the way through and it's such a great comparison - ty for making this! "^)
Excelente comparación Amigo. Me sorprendió que la Insta360 GO 2 se comportara tan bien contra un rival más nuevo.
Lo único que te faltó fue comparar la duración máxima de grabación. Es lo que más revuelo y desinformación ha causado con la DJI Action 2.
Recuerdo que cuando salió la Insta360 GO, muchos le tiraron caca por que grababa "sólo" 25 minutos. Pero ahora con la DJI Action 2, la mayoría de influencers no habla de el hecho de que sólo graba 13 minutos en 4K 120 fps, esto debido al sobrecalentamiento. Algunos decían que con una actualización solucionaron el problema. Pero no he visto un canal que lo muestre en video.
Thank you for the review!
I was watching it because I am interested in dji, but finally I think I will buy the Insta.
All I need is 1080p and good horizon leveling, along with nice color profile.
And Insta looks better from my point of view.
Many thanks!
That was actually very helpful. Thanks!
Really cool review for being shot on a phone! Nice one Alex!
Thanks legend!
Good video, very helpful.
A few things from your experience: how much video time do you get from the go2? I have read about 10min and then it shuts off.
How hot does it get when filming in the pro settings? Very noticeable?
And how is the lag with the connection with the smartphone? Some say it has a lot of lag when commanding from the phone.
Thanks.
This was so so much informative video. Thank you so much for this😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Great review, Alex! 👊🏽
Really nice video Thank you for sharing your comparison these two cameras
Is it possible to change magnetic mounts on the DJI Action 2 ONE-HANDED, maybe grabbing the camera while pressing one clip on the mount and angling it off?
Stabilization is out of this world. NICE!
I have been using go 2 for 4 months +, very satisfied.
very informative, not over the top, and everything makes sense. suprised that GO2 holding its own.
Really great clip. Thanks.
I also have the GO 2, I like it a lot, it's very small and light weight, I also like the lens filter options, and the magnetic attachment capabilities. I do find that it can get hot if you keep it running for long periods. The recording time does seem a little low (I think I get about 25-30 minutes of run time on the highest settings in PRO mode, with a little more time added if I bring the settings down a notch. And when I run the camera to 0 battery, it has acted a little strange trying to get it to recharge, it seems to eat the battery power if you connect to the camera with your phone app, but they have put out some updates to smooth everything out. And I have found the recharging pack can recharge the camera fairly quickly when your out in the field. It just seems to eat up a lot of battery trying to download the current files to your phone to free up space for more recording.
If your note was true and they do offer a new version with more internal space very soon, I will definitely be getting another one.
They anounced the 64gb model a couple of days ago. So thats true and i read in reviews that the action 2 goes out after 5 to 7 min for overheating and the battery lasts about 20minutes in higher setting. 30 in 1440p so same.
If you let your batteries get drained to 0 percent they start getting damaged very quickly, it’s a human error. I’m very impressed with the performance of the go 2. I’m very seriously considering buying myself one. I love how small and yet capable it is :)
Amazing and thorough comparison of the 2 cams that are actually relevant for this formfactor! Thanks!
I didn't expect the insta360 to perform so well in comparison. But I actually really like the exposure of the insta much better - the Action 2 tends to overexpose and then slowly get back to actually being correctly exposed. The Insta also seems to do a hidden face-priority in exposure while making sure not to blow the highlights completely out. Didn't know my nifty Go2 would perform so well in comparsion :)
The only downside of the Go2 for me: Mounted on a drone and subject to high-frequency vibrations (100-400hz) it generates a TON of jello, especially at fast shutter speeds. So the use of an ND-Filter is absolutely crucial and sadly there is no way to tell which shutter speed it actually shoots on. I'll get an exposure meter next week to quickly find the correct filter on set so it exposes long enough but doesn't go into higher ISO... that doesn't seem to be an issue with the Action2, it certainly isn't for the GoPros.
Still, I think I'll skip that action 2 and stay with my Go2 :)
Thanks for your comment! Appreciate all the insights on FPV, it's something I am not familiar with as a user. Have you tried to use manual shooting settings on GO 2? You can do it using the app, then adjust the ISO and Shutter speed as you like
@@AlexInde Manual would be useless for a drone that points in all directions. However it would actually be a good idea to find the right ND filter if I set it to my desired shutter speed point somewhere mid-exposed and then choose the ND that looks best in this setting. Good hint! I'll try that!
@@aphinion Yes, it has shutter and ISO priority modes too, can check it out
thanks! how do you activate horizon level for GO2? just shooting in VideoPro?
great job! I was always a bit against the Insta 360, but compared with the Action 2, I believe it is the better choice, unless you are not after the last percent of resolution.
for what I want to do the go 2 works the best. i reckon DJI will do a bunch of updates to refine the Action 2 though.
Great job Alex!! Really good video
Thank you Alejandro, learning from the best :D
Excellent! Thank you Alex!
Excellent review! Thanks!
New subscriber here👍 I have the go2 and a hero 8 for my FPV quads and I really enjoyed how you compared these in a way that the most of us are going to be using it ✌️thanks for sharing
Can’t help but notice how much more premium the Action 2 looks and the modular design is just brilliant. Don’t mind spending extra bucks for quality especially now it comes with a magnetic protective case that makes it perform even better.
I'm planning on using the action 2 for soccer POV but was worried about the battery life, you think it'll work for 40 min half soccer games?
Nice review!
My point goes to the go2. I actually have the go2 and I bought the dji action 2 on release day because of the hype :) but I will send it back when I receive it. Not such a big difference in terms of image quality, I am happy enough with the 1440p. Moreover the size and weight, the big plus of Go2 is the possibility to change the aspect ratio after the fact, I loooove that function!
Thanks for your work, it is exactly what I was looking for! ✌🏼
I have tested both yesterday on my fpv quadcopterand I really like the action 2 better. There is less Jello and the FOV is amazing. Also the sharpness is better. I also have less need to use ND filters.
@@skvaderfpv i believe you! For my use of the camera, the Go2 is perfect but I can see why others would enjoy the action 2 better ✌🏼
Great comparison video!
can i use go2 while charging with magnet thing on the chest ?
hi, can you please tell the details about the bike you were riding?
perfect video! just subscribed :-) really like GO2 and I think I will go for it soon :-)
Hi - is there audio on the Action2 if you shoot at 1080 120?
Excellent video. Thanks.
Have you had any overheating issues on the DJI? Some people claim it overheats after about 5 minutes of shooting.
請問長時間錄影(10分鐘)以上,機器會過熱當機嗎?
can you compare photos, like vertical photos colors in different situations for instagram and such? how good is the go2 for photos? gopro takes really good and wide photos. I wonder what the photos from insta look like?
This video helgedom me to decide to bud the go2. Amazing comperision. 👍
Great video. I would have loved a comparison of the record time for each mode.
Awesome review! I vote GO 2! Those football skills btw 🔥
Thanks legend!
Great review for the everyday user!
Isnt the dji ac2 has the widest fov? Why is it not compared to the go 2?
Excellent comparison/review
Thank you!
Great review! I just got go2 and when case is open and very close to my ears i hear some electric noice inside... U have same?
I have a GoPro Session and it's the absolute worst ever action cam I have purchased. The DJI Action 2 looks near identical to a Session so i'm very fearful. So yes never let the sales hype blind you.
the gopro hero 4 and 5 session are great wdym
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
I assume you used Standard color profile for Go 2?
Hi! Does it anyone having some heating problems with the insta360 go 2?
How about battery life and overheat issue for both of them?
Great comparison
Hi Alex
Really cool and usefull review here 👍
Once thing that strikes me is that you are urban offroading with your surron just the way I would do.
The wheelies, the back roads, the dirts bits ... just my kind of jam.
Where was that shot ? Shenzen ?
Do you have a Twitter account ?
For for action seems better. How is the editing software for the 360.
What about the overheating issue on the Action 2?
A battery expansion for GO 2 would be killer!
What is the tripod you using for osmo action 2 ?
What type of bike is dat ur riding
Thanks for this! I had been wondering about this exact comparison! It seems to me that the Action2 still just can't beat the Hero8/9/10 for image quality. So if I wanted a more compact camera than a Hero, I may as well get the Go2 which is way smaller (and cheaper?) than the Action2, but still has decent capture quality/features (at least good enough for videos that will be viewed primarily on small screens) and can be mounted more places than the action2 (like a micro FPV drone). 👍
Thanks for the comment Adam!
The Action 2 is a great option for vlogging with audio though
In a lot of the side by side footage, the 1440p of the Go 2 looked just as sharp as the 4K of the DJI Action 2!
Awesome thanks bro 😊😊
Hi Alex good review, can you just answer this, the DJI lets you move files from the camera to the SD card in the additional module. Is there space on the Go2 module or can you plug it into your android phone via USB and move the data across? I see there is a 64gb Go 2 out now so I guess its not so much of an issue but would be good to know
Thanks Andrew. Yes thats a good feature from Action 2 (even though the transfer speed is quite slow). GO 2 case doesnt have memory, and can transfer the data wirelessly to the phone or USB to the computer. I have also made it to transfer data to the phone using a USB C to USB A cable and then USB A to USB C adapter, the phone thinks it is a USB Drive and lets you transfer from GO 2 to the phone very quick
@@AlexInde Ah ha brilliant thats really good to know. So torn between the two cameras, might just flip a coin. Thanks Andrew
well done! if Go 2 had a phisical button and extendable storage or even more storage would be perfect
Very good comparison, I really enjoy my go 2 and I bought an action 2 when it first came out, I kind of regret doing that, and I’m probably gonna sell my action 2… I have filmed so much content out Paddleboarding on my Go2, and it seems like I just enjoy that camera more and more!
Great comparison. DJI with the wide angle looks very tempting. But it costs also more.
Use the Insta360 one R twin bundle.
Does the Go 2 give you a live view in the APP I have the first version that doesn’t
Yes it does 👍🏼
Great review bro. I just bought the go2 the same day action 2 got announced. I was wondering if made a mistake buying the go2. But your video really took that doubt away.
Go 2 is good but you shouldn’t waited for the 64g. I like my go 2 but it’s over sharpened and a bit dated looking footage. Also fills up too quickly , nightmare to transfer data You can’t tell much difference on a smart phone but in a iPad you will .
Loving my go 2 every minute of it....
How about battery, which one better
Gracias Alex! 🙌
Love this comparison I didn't even really think about the Insta360 GO, I was looking between Action 2 or GoPro Hero 10, im def looking for waterproof, as I am currently in Jamaica
Thanks for the comparison! I’m very drawn to the Action 2’s form factor. Excited to try it with the new DJI case too.
Great video ! I love DJI , but i ll go with the Go 2 this time.
Thanks Alex. Excellent review. You own both of the action cam, can I ask which one did you tend to use in the past 3 months?
Hi, thanks! I find myself using GO 2 most of the times. I actually sold the Action 2 weeks ago since I barely used it
Thx. I just got one ( go 2) I see they are coming out with a 64 gb. Hmm
Thanks a lot for the Video 👍👍
Great Informations👌
Greetings from Poland
What about recording time?
Awesome & Thanks :)
I can just imagine Go 2 releasing a Go 3. Very impressive insta
Great vídeo
Love my Go2. I think the new Action 2 is a little to pricy for what you get, plus it over heats, ouch. Will keep my Osmo Action camera, it's all together and waterproof complete. But the Go2 I think really hits the spot. The app also really make's things easy. But I do run the Go2 clips through their Studio desktop program and then edit in DaVinci Resolve 17 exporting in 4K. Turns out great.
very insightful in layman's term. nice
I really need this riview Alex, so I can decide whice one I have to buy, you honest rivew. Thanks Alex
Please do a comparison with Insta360 One R 1 inch mod :)
Waiting for 4K Go 2 🤞🤞
hoepfuly someday! 1440p looks awesome most of times for me tho. Thanks for commenting
Nice one!
What is the battery life of the GO 2? Nice video
Great review, got a follow from me because of it!
