Insta360 has just launched the GO 3S, the successor to the popular GO 3 action camera, with a variety of significant improvements. One of the key enhanced features is the ability to record 4K video at 30fps. This provides sharper and more detailed image quality compared to its predecessor, which could only record up to 2.7K. With 4K resolution becoming increasingly common, this upgrade offers a more satisfying recording experience for users.
In addition to the resolution upgrade, the GO 3S also comes with the Apple Find My feature. This feature allows iPhone users to track the location of their camera through the Find My app, as long as the camera still has battery, whether it’s on or off. However, Insta360 reminds users that the effectiveness of Find My will be “significantly limited” underwater due to Bluetooth signal interference.
The GO 3S also boasts other improvements. The camera now has a waterproof rating of up to 10 meters, double that of the previous version. However, it should be noted that this water resistance only applies to the camera unit itself. The Action Pod, which is an additional accessory, still requires a separate Dive Case for underwater use.
Review Conclusion
The Insta360 GO 3S brings innovation with its 4K recording capabilities and Apple Find My support, making it an attractive choice for action camera enthusiasts. With improved video quality and advanced tracking features, Insta360 demonstrates its commitment to delivering the best technology. Despite some limitations, such as the effectiveness of Find My underwater, this camera still offers many advantages for its users. If you’re looking for an action camera with high performance and advanced features, the GO 3S is worth considering.
