Popular action camera brand Insta360 has launched the smallest action camera in the world. Dubbed Insta360 Go 2, the tiny camera is a magnetic device that you can wear on your shirt, your cap, or attach it to your refrigerator to record crisp and stable videos from unique angles.
Design and Features
The Insta360 Go 2 features a capsule-shaped design and looks like an oversized fitness tracker. Instead of the digital display in the trackers, the Go 2 packs an ultra-wide-angle sensor that can shoot videos at 1440p at 50FPS with a 120-degree field of view (FOV). Apart from that, it can also shoot slo-mo videos at 120FPS, hyper-lapse videos, and underwater videos as it can go up to 13ft under sea level.
The tiny form factor and the minimal weight of the device are huge positives. These factors make the device ultra-portable and wearable, unlike other high-end action cameras like the GoPro Hero series or the DJI Osmo Action.
Now, coming to the charging case of the Insta360 Go 2, the company developed a multi-use accessory to house the camera module. The unique charging case, which looks like an AirPods Pro case, not only houses the camera module but also charges it to run for up to 150 minutes. In addition, the charging case doubles as a handheld remote for the camera packing a tiny screen and a couple of control buttons. Furthermore, users can also use the case as a tiny tripod for the Go 2 camera using the hidden legs at the back.
The Insta360 Go 2, much like other action cameras, works with a dedicated app. The app is available both on Android and iOS and connects your Go 2 camera to your smartphone wirelessly. The videos shot with the camera get transferred to the app. There, users can use the app’s AI-features to set their preferred aspect ratio and edit the videos for social media. Moreover, the app can intelligently pick out different scenes from the library and create a VLOG-like video.
These were some of the key specs and features of the device. So, if you are into action cameras, you can check out the $299 (~Rs 21,820) Insta360 Go 2 on the company’s official website. You can even customize the device with designer skins. Furthermore, the company is aiming to launch a special Minions Edition of the Go 2 camera during the summer of 2021.
