    The best travel Action and waterproof Camera

    We were looking for something to film our first ever Cruise trip and found myself reading the reviews online on insta 360 go 3 and I am the kind of person who needs to see if it really was worth the purchase and believe me when I say it took all the amazing videos and photos for our trip to the Bahamas . My only concern was the battery life as it runs only around 2hrs and gets too hot but anything else it works fine and you could also adjust the settings of the camera and just bring around a powerbank . Over all would definitely recommend this to anybody who likes to go travel around places like us and doesn’t want any bulk things around them .

    This camera is perfect for so many reasons. With an almost 3 hour battery life, waterproof ability, or 2.7k resolution, this camera is great for traveling with the flip up screen, but also great as an action camera with a very durable design. Its perfect for skiing, hiking, vlogging, surfing, snorkeling, and so much more. Especially with the sale making it only $320, this is the perfect family action camera. In the photo I included a quarter for size comparison.

    This action cam is pocket and versatile. It is super easy to set it up and be ready to record amazing footages of things as just a simple walk in the park as well as an bike ride in the mountains. Accessories are very convenient for most of the situations, and seems to be long lasting.

    Amazing camera, I am using it to record DIY projects and I can sneak it into machines to get cool shots. So far no real issues. The only thing I wish it had was a micro sd slot to expand the storage. But it does make you connect and unload the footage more often which is kind of a nice habit anyway. I haven't run out mid project if it is fully emptied. Also like that when you connect it to a usb there is a webcam mode you can use.

    Incredible camera. I used it to record the 2024 Solar Eclipse. I returned this one to get the 128GB version. It’s perfect for POV content for my photography, and media.

    This is a good little POV for a short time. What I mean is if you are looking for something small and compact its perfect. Riding a bike through the trails, doing POV instructions vids like mechanical work this works. However this little thing heats up. Havent used it to point it shuts down to cool but it does get got hot. Since that battery heats it then drains. I tried the lower setting and the same thing. Now this can be just the one I purchased but doubtful. I still will grab point in shot the small factor still holds its value. Video comes out good for the small pixel and where its being posted. Overall it gets the job down but will of course need the bigger versions for the bigger jobs. Final words I would like to see this prices at least a hondo cheaper.

    Video is great, but the audio is very bad, which is ultimately why I had to return it. I like having the removable almost too small camera, but the camera without the case will die in 45 minutes. The remote viewing on the case works most of the time, but not all the time. I could’ve dealt with all of its shortcomings, but the terrible was a dealbreaker for me, unfortunately.

    It’s a great product and I love how the videos and pictures come out. The only thing I didn’t like is that I’m not flat chested and every time I try to take a video with the camera mounted on my chest I got a great videos of the ceiling, the sky or the top of someones head.

    Love this little thing. Very Versatile. The little camera pops out and you can stick it pretty much on anything. Got it to document the little ones growing up, but also ended up attaching the magnetic part to a tank for a friends special occasion. My only complaints are that the smaller piece piece has very limited battery life (approx 45 min) and that the menu can sometimes be confusing (havent been using it lately). The screen is touch screen on the main unit and its not difficult to use, I just havent commited the usage to memory, just been using 4k video. Once the battery runs out on the small unit, just put it back in and you can continue to use again. Total battery life is approx 3 hours with the small piece holding a 45 minute charge on its on. So Total About 3 to 3.5 hours.
