Those record times are not possible. It will overheat well before that. They recommend only filming 10 minutes for ProMode and 15 for Basic. Mine kept crashing after about 3.5 minutes in Pro…useless
Can you charge and record a video at the same time? It's strange how everyone is only giving battery life info that they give. 1080p and 1440p are 2 different resolutions so how about 1080p without the charger and 1440p with the charger?
Hi Ocloo. It seems you cannot charge and record at the same time. When I'm recording, it does not seem to be charging. I'm testing the total recording time of the camera. So far the total battery life of the charger far exceeds the storage capacity of the camera. So you'll need to transfer files to your phone or hard drive after around 48 mins of video.
I'm done with Insta360 products. I've been waiting for 2 extra batteries I ordered for my OneX2 for 3 months. Not even Insta360 has them in stock on their website. I've been using my OneX for client work because I can't afford to run out of battery power on all-day shoots.
Great review.... I am afraid the battery life is still too short to replace my Gopro Session.....in action sports environment there is no way you have time to stop and charge the Go2 in the case..... It is an improvement from the original GO though.....not enough I am afraid
it seems insta360 is moving away from 360 camera into action cam as the market is bigger. too bad for 360 video, that's another nail in the coffin for VR (unfortunately)
Hi amanieux. I think we don't have to worry. Insta360 is not abandoning 360 by any means. The insta360 go 2 might reach people who are not yet ready for 360. And maybe in the future, some of them will switch to 360.
They already put the nail in the coffin after releasing another new camera and still have unreleased Accessories for One X2 !!! They don't even have spare batteries available for One X2 since November 2020
@@360vroomers Premium Lens Protectors tempered glass like One R So that Freewell can finally make ND FILTER for ONE X2 like they did for One R Guess that's no longer coming. If i lose my only One X2 battery aswell it will be pretty much useless after that. Cant even buy a spare battery since November 2020
After completely ignoring the Go, this will be my Go 2 camera (pun intended). I can't always take a cinema camera everywhere and color grade everything, too much work. This is ideal if your family doesn't like shooting video, but still wants to share their adventures (once the lockdown is over). They have an absolute winner for social media, this is the one that can make non-videographers finally start filming! And not just twice a year, but all the time.
Hey there Cruel Crusader. I don't have experience with paintball but I think you don't need the small size of Go 2 for that. You could use a Gopro instead, which will be more durable and will have longer recording capacity.
@@360vroomers would make for bad content. even tho i push the front line constantly. im trying to keep behind cover and when i am taking shots i try not to keep my elbow or shoulder sticking out to far and the cam would sit directly behind my marker(paintball gun).
Although the video is done well and explains in all details the new product I am sure I will not buy this Go2. I find it practically useless for those who are used to the quality and qualities of the X2. The fact that it is small is not a reason that could push you to buy. If it had been a device to be hooked via wifi to the x2 I would have bought it... It's not a macro camera that would have opened to the ultra small and then what's the point if you already have the fantastic X2 which is still small and transportable?
I am not really after the POV videos but more of catching my kids and family fun times .. insta360 one x2 or go 2 u think is better. For what i am after..? I was thinking the insta360 one x2 since it really catches everything not just what you are pointing at but kinda annoying that you always need to be walking around with a selfie stick. Decisions, decisions ... HaHa Couldn’t I just be rich and have both ...
Hey there Anthony. For your purposes the x2 will be more versatile. Go2 would be more useful for things like hands free videos or pov videos. There are some things Go2 can be more convenient than X2 but many things X2 can do that Go2 simply cant.
Thanks for the feedback. I just have to get more practice with POST editing and x2 should be more natural to use i guess. Your videos are very helpful !! Do you have any videos with creating stores with insta360 application?
Got to be a way to attach the full case & camera to say a GoPro mount via the 1/4 20 thread, so you can use this thing longer than the 20-30 min max time by itself. Ever see this yet? Or perhaps a 3D created one.
Hi Tom. The case has 1/4-20 mount so you can use a 1/4-20 to gopro adapter. Alternatively, you can use the powerd USB mount which has a USB type C port that can be plugged into a USB power bank for example.
Great review again but this new GO2 is not offering 4k, and image stabilization is still poor. And much Too Expensive! Will wait for a much better GO 3.. .
Hi Wiljan5560. It has the same sensor as one x2 and One X2 wide mode is limited to 1440p. So this one is the same. As for stabilization, it only has one lens (around 200 degrees fov) so the stabilization cannot be as good as a 360 camera.
Its a cool camera but the price is too much for a camera that can't shoot in at least 4k. If it shares the same sensor as the x2 why did they not just bump up the storage capacity & add 4k capability??? If the price drops 50% I'll get it otherwise its a no for me.
One X2 wide mode is similar to Go2. The wide mode max resolution is 1440p just like Go2. As for the price, i think it is not possible for such a specialized product to reach the volumes needed to bring prices down to half.
@@360vroomers yeah I hear you but I can't see many of these being sold especially with the economy being the way it is at this point. I like the camera just not that much to pay nearly the cost of either the One R or the X2.
Go 2 is designed to record short clips. If there is no air circulation, it can record about 10 mins at max resolution, pro mode, high bitrate. If there is enough wind or lots of circulating air, then it can record for as long as 30 minutes. See here 360rumors.com/insta360-go-2-64gb-capacity/
Thanks Pincher! Freeze Frame is now in the speed menu (lightning icon). Here are samples I made with one r but freeze frame works the same for go 2 Freeze Frame, Flash Dash samples + tutorial th-cam.com/video/dk-ksmOSH_g/w-d-xo.html
@@360vroomers Yes, I did see that but I have seen those shots before. I don't believe they were taken with this new GO 2. That's why I'd like to see what it can do and how deep it can go. You may wind up with 11 weaknesses or another strength!!
The price is a major weakness. It's only $50.00 cheaper than the DJI Pocket 2 and $100.00 more expensive than the current price of the DJI OSMO Action.
Yes that's true. There are a lot of good cameras in this price range. I will say that I do have the Pocket 2 as well, and I use this one much more often (partly to do tutorials). And the Pocket 2 has a lot of missing important accessories. So imho the real price is $499 (for the combo). But yes i love the microphone for the Pocket 2. Very convenient, although the sound is not as good as the Rode Wireless Go.
Hi Kerk. Yes partly. It can record longer than go1 but it can still overheat especially if the go2 is not moving and there is no wind. If it is cooler or it is attached to a drone or something that moves, then it can record longer.
Excellent review, but I just couldn’t focus on what your saying with that music/voice under the video. I ended up not watching halfway through because of the distracting music/voice.
Would you recommend this for basically a blogger who's still a little uncomfortable recording videos in department stores or piblic areas or that kind of area? I'm trying to do more informative, entertaining videos but I always find it weird that I'm holding my S21 Ultra up high and makes me uncomfortable at times with people just staring. I have been looking for a small camera but could never find anything that fits my need.
Hi zero and sora. Yes it would be excellent for that. If you are shooting with your phone, people will be aware that you are shooting and will tend to react to the camera. With the go2, it looks small, low profile and is also hands-free. You don't call attention to yourself when you shoot so it tends to capture more candid reactions.
nice...great features they should have included in the first camera but that's their business model...I'll not be sending them another $300 though..they probably already have an 8k 360 version with removable sd card ready to sell us next cycle..
😁 yes i think it's a fair point - the features of the Go 2 should have been the ones in the original Go. I think with the original Go, it was a bold risk for them. It was their first non-360 camera, and it was a bit of an unusual camera, and they were not sure how the market would react to it. If they had made it like Go 2, it would have required an even larger investment for them.
Great review as usual. So incredibly in-depth and spot on. You practically sold me on it. Insta360 needs to be very generous to you, your reviews I am certain help sell a lot of their products. The original GO was one camera I never bought because it just seemed silly. This one I might.
Thank you very much Pete. One of the issues with the Go was that it had a lot of limitations when it was released (videos only up to 1 minute, short battery life, etc.). With the Go2, they've addressed pretty much all of the limitations of the original Go.
You do the best reviews. kudos. I was hoping that this will fit the motovlogging function - motorcycle helmet mount with external mic inside the helmet. The lack of a 3.5mm audio input is a big omission. I hope they provide Bluetooth audio in that is compatible with standard BT audio profiles and devices. The X2's Apple AirPod-specific support is lame/useless. Can it be easily turned on/off by a gloved hand with its backside mounted to a helmet? Does it support h.265 for better storage efficiency? Can if be externally powered while operating? This is a huge market that GoPro currently owns despite its severe deficiencies (e.g., the huge audio dongle required)
Hey there bernhtp. Yes it could be good for motovlogging. There are two things you might want to consider. One is the recording capacity, which is limited to 30 mins. The other is that there is no external mic input for the Go2.
Hi megaspare. The only way to purchase now is through insta360 directly. The cost varies by region because they have to pay the taxes and customs duties, which should be included in the price. If you are in the US, it should be $300. But if you are not in the US, it may cost more. you may want to ask your compatriots in the Insta360 Facebook groups to see if they are paying the same.
i think good thing that can be used not professhional quadro copter)) i think....also in bicycle can be attached in place where usual camera could not be puted....intersting camera was Go and now Go 2 Thanks You Mic))))!!!!
Hi, can you please comment on the transfer rate from the camera to the phone and to the PC? like how much time do you need to copy a clip of 1 minute for example?
Are you sure about the recording time ? Many people have said it's stopping after 10 minutes due to heat issues Also how can you record for that long as it only has 28 gb of storage ?
Hi Jerome. The 28gb is enough to record about 48 mins of video. Re recording time, those are the specs given by insta360. In actual testing i have gotten 24 mins for basic video and 20 mins for pro video. They were not in the charge case.
@@360vroomers thanks..... ordered one today........i can test it by myself......i think it will be longer than the 30 minute video recording time........ regards........
I was disappointed at the price, it is slowly creeping closer and closer to the price of the one x2. With all the advantages the one x2 has over this new insta go i would assume most people would prefer to pay the extra £150 for a camera that can do so much more.
Hi dazza. Me too, I was hoping it would be $249. But I think it's because of the charging case which is much more advanced and costs a lot more than the previous charging case.
No key framing? Yikes! I use that all the time. That might be deal breaker, which is too bad because this seems to be an improvement on the original overall. Even the “disadvantages” are mostly carryovers from the original that I can live with.
Hi Nicholas. Yes. The Android app has now been updated to add support for Go 2 but you need to download it from the Insta360 website. The Google Play version is not updated.
I love my original Gos. Needed 2 of them for a full day out, but it was still cheaper than a GoPro. My videos are for me and my family/friends, so 4k isn’t that big of a deal. I’m not a film maker. It looks like they addressed nearly every concern I had with the original, and then some, but I don’t think I could afford 2 of these...I’ll for sure get one, and I’ll back it up with the original Go. I just need that next sale to come on.
Hi Abhishek. It uses the same insta360 app as other new insta360 cameras. If you have other insta360 cameras and were able to activate them in India then i think you can also activate go 2 in India. If not, I can check with insta360.
Another Camera release. With unfinished work on their One X2, Missing Accessories, No Premium Lens Guards released for One X2 yet. No spare batteries available for One X2 since November 2020. No wonder they were behind releasing another camera for more sales while customers of recently released One X2 left in the dark 😂
Hi Meta Captue. I hope we do get more batteries for One X2. What do you mean by unfinished work on One X2? What missing accessories are you looking for with the X2?
@@360vroomers Premium Lens Protectors ... Like the Tempered Glass One R Protectors. They were suppose to release the One X2 Premium Lens Guards with Tempered Glass and so if they did Freewell will be able to make ND Filter set like they did for One R. All we have is an inferior low quality easily scratched plastic lens covers..... and No ND filter options for creative use or long exposures. No Batteries available. If i lose or damage my only One X2 battery well it now becomes pretty useless! DAMN Also guessing now that this new camera is out they pretty much forget about the older cameras that lots of people bought. Or TBH slow down on updates since they got to spend more time now ironing out bugs and glitches in the latest release GO 2 and accessories for it. The differences from Android to Iphone App use limitations on Andorid... They should of advertised if you want the full features of this camera you need an Iphone.... Higher bitrate and quality output on iphone vs android output. Iphone exclusive Editing Adjustment ( Contrast, Shadows, Highlights, Tone, Brightness, White Balance) Feature that was never introduced to Android since the ONE R App Release a year ago still cannot be introduced to Android to edit and tweak your footage in app before exporting like Iphone. Oh and it's been an OFFICIAL FEATURE with OFFICIAL TUTORIALS but feature never released for Android. They should of just made it iphone only and stop selling dreams and limited usability on Android that they cannot fully support due to incompetent programming team. But once again consumer sales is key. So they say that it can work for both Mobile Operating systems but dont tell you its limited on the Android.... right
Hi John. I tested both handheld and attached to my shirt. For pov shots attached to my shirt my voice sounds excellent except when im breathing heavily, breathing can be heard. For handheld shots, the sound is similar to my samsung s10 video recording except it is less loud. At a distance of about 5 ft to the subject, i can hear it clearly although of course it sounds better when it is close.
Great video Mic! I wish it had a screw hole in the camera like the charging case... But this will be definitely on go 3 - dual lens tiny 360 camera... Lets wait for March 2022 😁
Thanks Tiago! I think the design priority for go series is always size and ease of use so i think it will always be one lens only. But tripod hole is definitely possible in the future!
Great review as always. Will be great for FPV. A little bigger than the original and will need a slightly bigger mount but the footage from it looks great. Arghh now I gotta spend more money 😭
Absolutely, it's excellent for FPV, especially tiny whoops. For larger quads, you might also be interested in Insta360 SMO, which is like an affordable naked GoPro. :D
Yes it's exactly that. In fact I was originally going to add that in the title. :) As for the price, it's higher than I originally expected, but I think it's because of the charging case, which must have raised the price. And if that's what happened, I can assure you it is worth at least $50 for how useful it is.
Thank you so much for your perfect review, expecially as you took the time to always compare to the original Go, so we now have a clear idea, what to expect. I´m extremely disappointed though, that they migrated the vampire drain to the Go 2 as well, but alas, there´s so much improvement in other regards, that I think, I will still buy it. Thank you for your good and everso useful work!
Great question! Currently there is no webcam feature but it looks possible. Re filter, all filters work on Go 2. If you mean shot lab effects, right now there are none for Go 2 yet. But i have asked insta360 to create one for Go 2.
6:43 - other reviews have said you don't need to import the videos to your iPad anymore to create a movie, but maybe only if you're not using Pro Mode ? Thanks !
I have go1 and old GoPro fusion, I was tempted to get one x2. Editing on the fusion is terrible. Insta360 is much better, but now maybe I should get this over the onex2? Hoping to use it for action/skiing. Thoughts?
Good question! The advantages of One X2 are the 3rd person view and the option to use "wide mode" which is similar to Go 2. The advantage of Go 2 is convenience of not having to stitch. Overall i would say one x2 seems to be better for action and skiing.
Hi JC. Yes you can transfer files from Go2. Just insert the Go2 in the charge case, and connect the charge case via USB Type C to your PC. Use Insta360 Studio to view the files, trim them, change the aspect ratio or fov, etc. Insta360 Studio is available from download from insta360's website.
Maybe a good idea is2 compared with the DJI or GoPro action camera because I really like to know if it's worth to change my DJI action cam for this one.thanks
Thanks Jantje. Sure I will compare the go2 with a GoPro Hero 9 and DJI Osmo action. I'm pretty sure the DJI Osmo Action will have better image quality. On the other hand, the Go2 has 360-degree stabilization, and is much smaller, so it can capture some shots that you can't capture with the DJI Osmo Action or a GoPro.
@@360vroomers yes I am very interesting in that stabilization especially on action safaris I'm dedicated to normally I record in HD video not in because of the word flow almost everybody watches Ed their mobile or pack so I think HD video it's enough for most of my clients

Hey, thanks for the helpful review !👌 Ich have one question left in my mind though: Tge original 360go had interval shooting/recording mode where it would turn automatically on, record a short clip and turn out again. Does the 360go 2 have this feature now too ? Would be a no go for me if it doesnt have this feature thats why Im looking forward to your response :D
@@360vroomers oof thats a bummer :/ Maybe they had to remove the feature because if law infringements ?🤔 Otherwise I wouldnt understand why they would remove this incredible useful feature
The best review up to date. Thanks. For my use of filming track days, the biggest downfall for me is limited internal memory and that you need to upload vid first to mobile phone. I do not have 32 gb free on my phone (filled with other stuff), and if I want to film let's say 2 x 30 mins @ 1440p , I have to first upload one vid to phone in order to shoot the second one, then upload again to phone and then decide which one is better, and I will use. I would prefer direct transfer of files to PC with USB-C or with some kind of OTG to external portable hard disk.
Thank you very much Cyber Gasty! That's one of the cool features of the Insta360 cameras that I actually didn't mention in the video -- You can edit your video without downloading it to your phone. Only Insta360 cameras can do that. Yes you can transfer files directly to PC with a USB Type C. Not sure about external portable hard drive.
@@360vroomers Thanks, than this is a good feature compared to v1. I wish internal memory is bigger to have at least 1h-1h30 of vid before need to transfer files.

Thanks! Good question. I tried it and yes the Go2 sinks. I've seen silicone skins for Go that i think might allow it to float. Hopefully they create one for Go2.

@@360vroomers thanks for the answer, also i have more questions (sorry for bother to you). Do we need another cable usb c otg for iPhone or Android to make it work with mobiles? The max record in Pro mode is 10 minutes (because of the heat), but how much time is the interval between this recordings? How much time can i record in only Pro Mode with only one charge? The magnet chest mount is strong enough for shaky activities? For too shaky activities, which accesorie is better?

The enthusiasm and energy combined with the experience, tips and information really makes your content not only enjoyable to watch but also a go-to source for 360 users. Keep up the good work and thank you.
Very useful review as always. 👍 I've watched 25 different review on this camera now, and so fare no one has mentioned the interval video shooting, is that missing?? If so, it's a huge deal breaker to me since it's the function I use the most. 🤔
Thanks Keld. You are right. That is a feature that is not on go2. I forgot about it. But please note you can use the charge case as wireless remote to start a new recoding.
I know. But the fact that you can attract your camera and go for a city wall or something else without paying attention to your camera, and the excitement when you come home and watch your clip, that's what I love the most by the first version. 🙏 when they apply this in firmware update, then I'll order, no doubt, but not without this function. 😬
Thanks for this very informative video. For somebody who knows very little it seems to me to be very similar to the DJI Pocket 2? Lastly why are they called 360 when they obviously can't do 360 photos?
Thanks Bill! I have Pocket 2 as well, and I would say they do have some similarities such as use for social media. But one difference is the size. Go 2 is intended to be wearable and can be put in odd places such as walls or windows without trouble. As for Pocket 2, yes it can be worn but imho it's not really designed to be worn or to be used in strenuous activities.
@360Rumors, I am deciding on getting the 360 Go 2 to add to my b-roll shots and different perspectives, I normally use a7siii in slog and also other picture profiles, in post color editing, can I color match the 360 Go 2 with Sony's slog3 or their other picture profiles, does the Go 2 have a flat color profile in the settings.
Hi Andreas. Yes it is better than the original Go for low light. You can expect similar quality to One X2. I will upload a low light sample on my review page.
@@360vroomers that is amazing! Would love to see the samples. Also, the clip mount, looks like you can rotate it 180 degrees. Would be perfect on a t-shirt collar. Or does it not stick in all angles?

I find it practically useless for those who are used to the quality and qualities of the X2. The fact that it is small is not a reason that could push you to buy. If it had been a device to be hooked via wifi to the x2 I would have bought it... It's not a macro camera that would have opened to the ultra small and then what's the point if you already have the fantastic X2 which is still small and transportable?
Thanks Arturo! I will have a follow up to this video with some more illustrations of how go2 could be useful :D
You're the first for me to review this camera 👍 Very thorough as usual, thank you Mic 😊
Thanks Paul! 😄
Great video! Didn’t even know they made a new insta360 go. I had to return mine bcuz it wasn’t charging . Now I’m thinking of buying the new one.
Thanks J. Tran! Seems like a blessing in disguise because the new Go 2 is waaaaaaaay better than the original Go! :D
I wish they would make a tiny magnetic dead cat for the camera itself when outside the case. This would help the audio quality I think.
good idea. besides magnets, i think one way to do it would be to create a silicone skin for the go2 with a built in dead cat.
how to download all the captured videos/photos to an iphone? is it stored in the insta360 app? thanks
Hi HGST. The photos and videos are in the insta360 go2 but yes you can download them individually or as a group into your phone or desktop.
Interesting information, nice review, but horrible music that caused me headache 🤷♀️
Thanks Nikol. Sorry about the music. I will have more information about the Insta360 Go 2. Stay tuned!
I am not really after the POV videos but more of catching my kids and family fun times .. insta360 one x2 or go 2 u think is better. For what i am after..? I was thinking the insta360 one x2 since it really catches everything not just what you are pointing at but kinda annoying that you always need to be walking around with a selfie stick. Decisions, decisions ... HaHa Couldn’t I just be rich and have both ...
Hey there Anthony. For your purposes the x2 will be more versatile. Go2 would be more useful for things like hands free videos or pov videos. There are some things Go2 can be more convenient than X2 but many things X2 can do that Go2 simply cant.
Thanks for the feedback. I just have to get more practice with POST editing and x2 should be more natural to use i guess. Your videos are very helpful !! Do you have any videos with creating stores with insta360 application?
Got to be a way to attach the full case & camera to say a GoPro mount via the 1/4 20 thread, so you can use this thing longer than the 20-30 min max time by itself. Ever see this yet? Or perhaps a 3D created one.
Hi Tom. The case has 1/4-20 mount so you can use a 1/4-20 to gopro adapter. Alternatively, you can use the powerd USB mount which has a USB type C port that can be plugged into a USB power bank for example.
@@360vroomers Thanks Mic!
Great review again but this new GO2 is not offering 4k, and image stabilization is still poor. And much Too Expensive! Will wait for a much better GO 3.. .
Hi Wiljan5560. It has the same sensor as one x2 and One X2 wide mode is limited to 1440p. So this one is the same. As for stabilization, it only has one lens (around 200 degrees fov) so the stabilization cannot be as good as a 360 camera.
@@360vroomers thanks...its a nice small camera, but gopro with 4k and stabilization out performs this offering including the price
Its a cool camera but the price is too much for a camera that can't shoot in at least 4k. If it shares the same sensor as the x2 why did they not just bump up the storage capacity & add 4k capability??? If the price drops 50% I'll get it otherwise its a no for me.
One X2 wide mode is similar to Go2. The wide mode max resolution is 1440p just like Go2. As for the price, i think it is not possible for such a specialized product to reach the volumes needed to bring prices down to half.
@@360vroomers yeah I hear you but I can't see many of these being sold especially with the economy being the way it is at this point. I like the camera just not that much to pay nearly the cost of either the One R or the X2.
Great video, the background @9:10 music is kinda annoying tho when watching with headphone. It's distracting just saying.
Thanks! Next time i will avoid music with lyrics!
I keep hearing about a overheating issues. Is that true and is it that bad
Go 2 is designed to record short clips. If there is no air circulation, it can record about 10 mins at max resolution, pro mode, high bitrate. If there is enough wind or lots of circulating air, then it can record for as long as 30 minutes. See here 360rumors.com/insta360-go-2-64gb-capacity/

Does it shoot sharp images underwater or will they have to develop a housing for this one too?
Hi Tim great question! I havent been able to shoot underwater yet but there are a few clips that seem ok (see the segment on aquavision)
@@360vroomers Yes, I did see that but I have seen those shots before. I don't believe they were taken with this new GO 2. That's why I'd like to see what it can do and how deep it can go. You may wind up with 11 weaknesses or another strength!!
@@timrock01 thanks Tim. I will have to wait until we can go to a resort to swim 😁
in other reviews it is said that this camera gets very hot. is it true?
It gets hot but not to the point where it is too hot to touch, so i didn't think it was a big deal.
The price is a major weakness. It's only $50.00 cheaper than the DJI Pocket 2 and $100.00 more expensive than the current price of the DJI OSMO Action.
Yes that's true. There are a lot of good cameras in this price range. I will say that I do have the Pocket 2 as well, and I use this one much more often (partly to do tutorials). And the Pocket 2 has a lot of missing important accessories. So imho the real price is $499 (for the combo). But yes i love the microphone for the Pocket 2. Very convenient, although the sound is not as good as the Rode Wireless Go.
Yo you look like the general from ip man 1
Oh man i still have bruises from that fight... cough cough...!
Dose insta360 go 2 have overheating issue?
Hi Kerk. Yes partly. It can record longer than go1 but it can still overheat especially if the go2 is not moving and there is no wind. If it is cooler or it is attached to a drone or something that moves, then it can record longer.
What is that HORRIBLE background music/noise?!? Extremely distracting.
Excellent review, but I just couldn’t focus on what your saying with that music/voice under the video. I ended up not watching halfway through because of the distracting music/voice.

@@360vroomers Wow! That would be fantastic!!!! Thanks!!!! You really are awesome man!
@@ramgoofy Hi Ram. As promised, here is the new 46 Features video with no music th-cam.com/video/jR6oF80pmDA/w-d-xo.html
Is this an actual 360 camera or is that just the name?
It’s a 180 camera. Insta360 is a camera brand. They make 360 cameras and are very well known for it.
Would you recommend this for basically a blogger who's still a little uncomfortable recording videos in department stores or piblic areas or that kind of area? I'm trying to do more informative, entertaining videos but I always find it weird that I'm holding my S21 Ultra up high and makes me uncomfortable at times with people just staring. I have been looking for a small camera but could never find anything that fits my need.
Hi zero and sora. Yes it would be excellent for that. If you are shooting with your phone, people will be aware that you are shooting and will tend to react to the camera. With the go2, it looks small, low profile and is also hands-free. You don't call attention to yourself when you shoot so it tends to capture more candid reactions.
nice...great features they should have included in the first camera but that's their business model...I'll not be sending them another $300 though..they probably already have an 8k 360 version with removable sd card ready to sell us next cycle..
😁 yes i think it's a fair point - the features of the Go 2 should have been the ones in the original Go. I think with the original Go, it was a bold risk for them. It was their first non-360 camera, and it was a bit of an unusual camera, and they were not sure how the market would react to it. If they had made it like Go 2, it would have required an even larger investment for them.
Great review as usual. So incredibly in-depth and spot on. You practically sold me on it. Insta360 needs to be very generous to you, your reviews I am certain help sell a lot of their products. The original GO was one camera I never bought because it just seemed silly. This one I might.
Thank you very much Pete. One of the issues with the Go was that it had a lot of limitations when it was released (videos only up to 1 minute, short battery life, etc.). With the Go2, they've addressed pretty much all of the limitations of the original Go.
It also gets dangerously hot, crashes constantly, the case is extra flimsy. You can’t just hit record and know your going to capture the shot.
You do the best reviews. kudos.
I was hoping that this will fit the motovlogging function - motorcycle helmet mount with external mic inside the helmet.
The lack of a 3.5mm audio input is a big omission. I hope they provide Bluetooth audio in that is compatible with standard BT audio profiles and devices. The X2's Apple AirPod-specific support is lame/useless.
Can it be easily turned on/off by a gloved hand with its backside mounted to a helmet?
Does it support h.265 for better storage efficiency?
Can if be externally powered while operating?
This is a huge market that GoPro currently owns despite its severe deficiencies (e.g., the huge audio dongle required)
Hey there bernhtp. Yes it could be good for motovlogging. There are two things you might want to consider. One is the recording capacity, which is limited to 30 mins. The other is that there is no external mic input for the Go2.
How do you purchase the Go 2? I’ve been searching the site, it costs nearly $400+, when I’ve seen people say it costs $300.
Hi megaspare. The only way to purchase now is through insta360 directly. The cost varies by region because they have to pay the taxes and customs duties, which should be included in the price. If you are in the US, it should be $300. But if you are not in the US, it may cost more. you may want to ask your compatriots in the Insta360 Facebook groups to see if they are paying the same.
I'm confused, if its 30 mins on 1440, on 1080 how long will it be? 🙈
i think good thing that can be used not professhional quadro copter)) i think....also in bicycle can be attached in place where usual camera could not be puted....intersting camera was Go and now Go 2
Thanks You Mic))))!!!!
Thank you very much Andreev! Yes good ideas! 😀
Can it record 1080p @60fps?
Hi Thanos. It can record 1440p or 1080p at 30 or 50fps. It can also record at 1080p 120fps in slow motion mode. :D
Looks like a great improvement from the first, but only 30 minutes battery life? I don't like that.
Yes many improvements. Re batt life, the go2 itself is 30 mins but with the charge case, the total battery life is 150 mins.
why not try flying the insta360 with a kite
Great idea 😀
Hi, can you please comment on the transfer rate from the camera to the phone and to the PC? like how much time do you need to copy a clip of 1 minute for example?
can we do made vlog with this
For vlogging it is great for pov shots and brolls. But no external mic. So it is a good complement for vlogging with your phone or other camera.
Are you sure about the recording time ?
Many people have said it's stopping after 10 minutes due to heat issues
Also how can you record for that long as it only has 28 gb of storage ?
Hi Jerome. The 28gb is enough to record about 48 mins of video. Re recording time, those are the specs given by insta360. In actual testing i have gotten 24 mins for basic video and 20 mins for pro video. They were not in the charge case.
thanks for review.......
any idea of how long you can time lapse ?
Hi Emmanuel. I haven't measured that. I'll try it.
@@360vroomers thanks.....
ordered one today........i can test it by myself......i think it will be longer than the 30 minute video recording time........

@@Emmanuel_Tuts-Schiemsky congrats!! Let me know if you have any questions.
Will there be an insta 360 go 3?
Hi Demon Spankz! I hope so but i dont know when.
You should have time stamp
If you add too many time stamps, youtube ignores them. 46 time stamps is unfortunately too many.
I was disappointed at the price, it is slowly creeping closer and closer to the price of the one x2. With all the advantages the one x2 has over this new insta go i would assume most people would prefer to pay the extra £150 for a camera that can do so much more.
Hi dazza. Me too, I was hoping it would be $249. But I think it's because of the charging case which is much more advanced and costs a lot more than the previous charging case.
No key framing? Yikes! I use that all the time. That might be deal breaker, which is too bad because this seems to be an improvement on the original overall. Even the “disadvantages” are mostly carryovers from the original that I can live with.
Hi Jeffson! Great news! I found that the iOS app has been updated and now DOES include keyframing. For Android, I dont see the update yet.
Does it work gd with android phones ? The Go 1 doesn't
Hi Nicholas. Yes. The Android app has now been updated to add support for Go 2 but you need to download it from the Insta360 website. The Google Play version is not updated.
@@360vroomers
Sir does Xiomi note 8 is compatible for insta 360 go 2.
I watched reviews that insta go do not support any android device
I love my original Gos. Needed 2 of them for a full day out, but it was still cheaper than a GoPro. My videos are for me and my family/friends, so 4k isn’t that big of a deal. I’m not a film maker. It looks like they addressed nearly every concern I had with the original, and then some, but I don’t think I could afford 2 of these...I’ll for sure get one, and I’ll back it up with the original Go. I just need that next sale to come on.
Thanks Brandon i think you are exactly the perso they had in mind! 😀

Thanks buddy!
can i order it from usa and use it in india ? will the insta 360 go 2 app get installed on my phone purchased in india ?
Hi Abhishek. It uses the same insta360 app as other new insta360 cameras. If you have other insta360 cameras and were able to activate them in India then i think you can also activate go 2 in India. If not, I can check with insta360.
Another Camera release. With unfinished work on their One X2, Missing Accessories, No Premium Lens Guards released for One X2 yet. No spare batteries available for One X2 since November 2020.
No wonder they were behind releasing another camera for more sales while customers of recently released One X2 left in the dark 😂
Hi Meta Captue. I hope we do get more batteries for One X2. What do you mean by unfinished work on One X2? What missing accessories are you looking for with the X2?
@@360vroomers Premium Lens Protectors ... Like the Tempered Glass One R Protectors.
They were suppose to release the One X2 Premium Lens Guards with Tempered Glass and so if they did Freewell will be able to make ND Filter set like they did for One R.
All we have is an inferior low quality easily scratched plastic lens covers..... and No ND filter options for creative use or long exposures. No Batteries available. If i lose or damage my only One X2 battery well it now becomes pretty useless! DAMN
Also guessing now that this new camera is out they pretty much forget about the older cameras that lots of people bought. Or TBH slow down on updates since they got to spend more time now ironing out bugs and glitches in the latest release GO 2 and accessories for it.
The differences from Android to Iphone App use limitations on Andorid...
They should of advertised if you want the full features of this camera you need an Iphone....
Higher bitrate and quality output on iphone vs android output.
Iphone exclusive Editing Adjustment ( Contrast, Shadows, Highlights, Tone, Brightness, White Balance)
Feature that was never introduced to Android since the ONE R App Release a year ago still cannot be introduced to Android to edit and tweak your footage in app before exporting like Iphone.
Oh and it's been an OFFICIAL FEATURE with OFFICIAL TUTORIALS but feature never released for Android.
They should of just made it iphone only and stop selling dreams and limited usability on Android that they cannot fully support due to incompetent programming team. But once again consumer sales is key.
So they say that it can work for both Mobile Operating systems but dont tell you its limited on the Android.... right
What is the quality of the sound using the inbuilt mic if it has one?
Hi John. I tested both handheld and attached to my shirt. For pov shots attached to my shirt my voice sounds excellent except when im breathing heavily, breathing can be heard. For handheld shots, the sound is similar to my samsung s10 video recording except it is less loud. At a distance of about 5 ft to the subject, i can hear it clearly although of course it sounds better when it is close.
Thank you
@@NiceAussie anytime!

Great video Mic! I wish it had a screw hole in the camera like the charging case... But this will be definitely on go 3 - dual lens tiny 360 camera... Lets wait for March 2022 😁
Thanks Tiago! I think the design priority for go series is always size and ease of use so i think it will always be one lens only. But tripod hole is definitely possible in the future!
Great review as always. Will be great for FPV. A little bigger than the original and will need a slightly bigger mount but the footage from it looks great. Arghh now I gotta spend more money 😭
Absolutely, it's excellent for FPV, especially tiny whoops. For larger quads, you might also be interested in Insta360 SMO, which is like an affordable naked GoPro. :D
I see this as a big upgrade to a go pro hero session. But the price is just too high.
Yes it's exactly that. In fact I was originally going to add that in the title. :) As for the price, it's higher than I originally expected, but I think it's because of the charging case, which must have raised the price. And if that's what happened, I can assure you it is worth at least $50 for how useful it is.
Can go into the sea with this
Hi Z-Spot. Yes the Insta360 Go 2 camera is waterproof up to 4m. But please note the camera charging case is not waterproof.
I hear it no longer does interval shooting! Is this true?! Another deal breaker! :(
Hi Jeffson. It does have photo interval mode. But no video interval mode. I wilk ask them to put it back.
Thank you so much for your perfect review, expecially as you took the time to always compare to the original Go, so we now have a clear idea, what to expect. I´m extremely disappointed though, that they migrated the vampire drain to the Go 2 as well, but alas, there´s so much improvement in other regards, that I think, I will still buy it. Thank you for your good and everso useful work!
Thank you very much amSeehafen. Yes the improvement is tremendous. If you liked the Go1, you will absolutely love the Go2!
Okay, my burning questionsss:-
Can you connect it as a webcam?
Can you create a video on which One XR2 filter won't work on Insta360 GO2

I have go1 and old GoPro fusion, I was tempted to get one x2. Editing on the fusion is terrible. Insta360 is much better, but now maybe I should get this over the onex2? Hoping to use it for action/skiing. Thoughts?
Good question! The advantages of One X2 are the 3rd person view and the option to use "wide mode" which is similar to Go 2. The advantage of Go 2 is convenience of not having to stitch. Overall i would say one x2 seems to be better for action and skiing.

Maybe a good idea is2 compared with the DJI or GoPro action camera because I really like to know if it's worth to change my DJI action cam for this one.thanks
Thanks Jantje. Sure I will compare the go2 with a GoPro Hero 9 and DJI Osmo action. I'm pretty sure the DJI Osmo Action will have better image quality.

The best review up to date. Thanks. For my use of filming track days, the biggest downfall for me is limited internal memory and that you need to upload vid first to mobile phone. I do not have 32 gb free on my phone (filled with other stuff), and if I want to film let's say 2 x 30 mins @ 1440p , I have to first upload one vid to phone in order to shoot the second one, then upload again to phone and then decide which one is better, and I will use. I would prefer direct transfer of files to PC with USB-C or with some kind of OTG to external portable hard disk.
Thank you very much Cyber Gasty! That's one of the cool features of the Insta360 cameras that I actually didn't mention in the video -- You can edit your video without downloading it to your phone.

What about putting it into something that floats? Just cut some styrofoam so it fits the cam. Further benefit: You won't overlook it when it surfaces.

Thank you very much my friend! Keep watching my videos and you'll know the jargon too :D
A great video…very many thanks!
How can i buy thay in India?
Hi ManthanCreates. It is available only from Insta360 direct. bit.ly/go2sale I hope they do ship to India.
@@360vroomers No they dont ship to India
@@WhereisManthan there might be a forwarding service available.
Very useful review as always. 👍 I've watched 25 different review on this camera now, and so fare no one has mentioned the interval video shooting, is that missing?? If so, it's a huge deal breaker to me since it's the function I use the most. 🤔
Thanks Keld. You are right. That is a feature that is not on go2. I forgot about it. But please note you can use the charge case as wireless remote to start a new recoding.
I know. But the fact that you can attract your camera and go for a city wall or something else without paying attention to your camera, and the excitement when you come home and watch your clip, that's what I love the most by the first version. 🙏 when they apply this in firmware update, then I'll order, no doubt, but not without this function. 😬
@@keldmikkelsen2599 i see. That's a good point. Let me ask them about it
Thanks for this very informative video. For somebody who knows very little it seems to me to be very similar to the DJI Pocket 2? Lastly why are they called 360 when they obviously can't do 360 photos?
Thanks Bill! I have Pocket 2 as well, and I would say they do have some similarities such as use for social media. But one difference is the size. Go 2 is intended to be wearable and can be put in odd places such as walls or windows without trouble. As for Pocket 2, yes it can be worn but imho it's not really designed to be worn or to be used in strenuous activities.
The company name is Insta360, the name of the camera is just Go 2.
@@360vroomers Thank you very much for quick reply
@@RikkyTang Thank you
@360Rumors, I am deciding on getting the 360 Go 2 to add to my b-roll shots and different perspectives, I normally use a7siii in slog and also other picture profiles, in post color editing, can I color match the 360 Go 2 with Sony's slog3 or their other picture profiles, does the Go 2 have a flat color profile in the settings.
Would love to know if it is better in low light scenarios. The old Go would be a grainy mess when shooting video indoors.
Hi Andreas. Yes it is better than the original Go for low light. You can expect similar quality to One X2. I will upload a low light sample on my review page.
@@360vroomers that is amazing! Would love to see the samples. Also, the clip mount, looks like you can rotate it 180 degrees. Would be perfect on a t-shirt collar. Or does it not stick in all angles?
@@AndreasWeidman thanks Andreas. Yes the clip has a camera mount that can pivot up or down with a 180 degree total range.
Nice review. Hows the audio?
Hey there Roberto! Great question! The audio is ok when the camera is clipped to your shirt or something. When it's on a selfie stick audio is not that great and unfortunately there are no external mic options (so far).
I am disappointed on the product (not about your video of course), the teaser was making us dream....
Hi Zouhair. In my next video about the Go 2, I will show how to do the teaser video, plus other techniques for the Go 2.
@@360vroomers hahaha well done maestro ! now the hype is back ! Still learning a lot on your workshop ! and to be frank now that I tried the 360 photos from a dslr its really hard to imagine going back on a classic 360 camera
@@zouhairbenazzouz2536 Thank you very much Zouhair. And yes, that's how it is -- once you shoot with DSLR, the quality of a 360 camera pales in comparison, except for casual use.
@@360vroomers It is all said ! I cant wait to see what we assume the theta Z2 will deliver !
thank u buddy..u had said to wait..and worth to wait..
Thanks Aary! Yes I think it's worth waiting for... It's a huge upgrade from the 1st generation Insta360 Go :D

Such an improvement over the original Go! What are the timelapse time settings?
Yes it's a HUUUUGE improvement. Almost like a different camera. Time lapse video intervals are 0.5s to 2 mins. For photo time lapse (interval shooting mode), the intervals are from 3 secs to 2 mins.
@@360vroomers Thanks mate :-)
@@pixelpeter3883 anytime Pixelpeter!
Do Go2 still discharging like Go1 it does, lying in the case?
The question is gone, after hearing the disadvantages... Energy loss without use of the device is a no-go for me!
Yes it discharges after a few days.
@@360vroomers Thx for answer. Unlikely, this is the worst disadvantage in my opinion. Do You happen to know whether this problem (discharging) also occurs with the insta360 one R and x2?
very informative.thx for sharing
Thank you very much beautiful pakistan! :D
Thanks sharing
Thanks Tuna!!! I've enjoyed using it for the past couple of months! :D
