Very extensive video man, as somebody who was considering the 3S model I really appreciate the time and effort you put into this video! Just got a new subscriber!
First, let me thank you for your great work on your reviews - they're unbiased and informative, which is exactly what potential buyers need before deciding to buy a new camera or upgrade an older one. As a Go2 owner, I've noticed that the camera's autonomy seems to be affected by various factors over time. I'm talking about things like external conditions (low or high temperatures), as well as the camera's age and usage - both of which can reduce the battery life. I just wanted to add these points as additional information to your excellent reviews. Now, for the next video, I'd love for you to focus on a major issue that many users face: switching the frame size from 16:9 to 9:16 (or vice versa) in post-production. This often results in a significant crop that ruins the final video. This seems to be related to the new rectangular sensor design. Could you please do an in-depth test on this topic? Thanks again for your great work!
Thank you for the test and very good information. I’ll tell you what useful test you add too. How many charges the camera can get from the action pod before the AP runs out?
I actually just did this test last week, which I mention in another video (th-cam.com/video/8HMw7ZHFUzE/w-d-xo.html). I was able to charge a fully depleted camera almost 3 times (about 2.7 times). The AP still had about 15% charge left, but refused to charge the camera at or below that level.
Good job! 🤩 Question; if I nearly empty small cameras' battery ad then put it in action pod and keep filming, will the camera itself be charged? If yes, will it take longer time?
I haven't tested that but it will be close. Recording 4K, the charging time and run time are about the same, although the 0-80% charge rate is slightly higher, so it might just work.
question if I have the camera itself without the action pot and I am not recording or let’s see I want to record but just smalls videos every 15 minutes, during that time that I am not using the camera I am losing battery?
to be more specific I am running a half marathon in 2 weeks so thinking in get this camera tu record but I just want to bring the camera itself with me, of course I am not planning to record the entire marathon I am just thinking in record a few minutes every 15-30m to make a kind of recap video at the end of the marathon but I am worried because supposedly the camera itself has a battery life up to 30-40 minutes so that’s not even a half time of the time to complete the half marathon, so If I bring the camera with me and I am only use it every 30 minutes to record let’s say 5 minutes of video the camera itself should have enough battery to complete the race? or the battery start draining since the moment that I take it out from the action pot? thanks!
Sounds like you have the perfect application for the new "Interval Video" mode. In this mode, the camera will automatically record for set durations at set intervals, powering off in-between. The record duration and interval are customizable, as are all other settings (recording mode, resolution, exposure, etc.). The app even offers AI auto editing of the results, or of course you can edit yourself. I definitely recommend the 128GB version to ensure you have enough space.

Thanks! One more question since you are "pro" in 360 GO😜 Did you test this GPS remote without life preview, which should be compatible with GO 3 and GO 3s. Would that be possible to get speed overlay in the post software? I have got rid of my GoPro 11 and now can not decide, GO3s or 360 Ace Pro !!
I know that the GPS remote (the slightly older one, without the live view) is compatible with the GO 3/3S. I have not yet tested the GPS data, but I see no reason why it shouldn't work.
Can you test the range from the cam to the Pod. Suddenly mine doesn't reach far at all and I never get full range meter on the screen even when the camera is right next to the action pod. I've reset and did all trouble shooting. Even reinstalled the new firmware. It is like the Bluetooth has lost range over night and I cannot fix it. 😢
this was the review i was looking for that no one is giving thanks
Glad it was helpful - thanks for watching.

I was already thinking about a video comparing standard video to freeframe, so this would tie in well with that. Stay tuned!
idk its just me, but your intro has a high pitch whine
Not just you - working on it..
it’s ok, i have tinnitus ever after my navy years 😂

Thanks for the great review. But please, ditch the unnecessary sound effects.
Noted! Thanks for watching.
