But is it worth the $299 base price? Its a cool novelty, but $299 can probably be better spent. When I was an Ambassador for Insta360, I got to play with the first gen. It was neat, but had a few short comings at release. But it was priced accordingly. The price jump is no joke.
Outstanding, Aldryn. The GO 2 sure has a lot of updates, and its new design is awesome. Talk about almost not even be able to see the camera. I really like the hat mount so it can give a real eye view perspective. Nicely done, and I sure hope they take your ideas into the next version. Thanks.
This seems to be a really hot camera. Everyone is reviewing it. I just ordered mine!! I see they have different colors but dang you almost like it in a kite camo color.
That looks like a nice bit of kit. Very convenient to carry around versus other setups. Would probably make a decent trade off for the active videographer or vlogger. Thanks for binging videos like this to us Aldryn. Very well done!!
I love my GoPro and Osmo action to capture kids at amusement parks and catching their reaction on rides. This is a plus as smaller in size. I hope magnets are strong enough to withstand rides.
This new upgraded Insta360 GO 2 could be the small and compact on the go action camera we have all been waiting for. Great review, you really covered almost everything.
Great video. Your memory expansion was in your pocket. This is designed to think differently, like shooting 360. If shooting long, offload the onboard to your cell, it doesn't the long at all
Good quality video, small size, no fragile display in exposed positions: i'm really glad that action cameras are starting to go back from vlogging devices to... well, actual action cameras!
yes, more memory would be nice. maybe in the future they can put a micro SD card slot in the case and every time you put the go2 back in the case it automatically stores the files there...
Pretty cool little cam. I think it would be easier to attach to my young nephews as they go hiking in Colorado. The GoPro is sometimes bulky on a toddler.
Great points in this vid Aldryn! Seems like the size of this thing makes it really fun and convenient to bring around. Deeply considering picking one up.
Nice video Aldryn! I like that small camera. I often upscale the 1440p footage to 4k with Topaz video enhance ai. A lot of people think that i have used a dslr for my shots. The upscaled videos look great and detailed.
Thorough review - thank you. Really, really nice camera. Having said that, it costs as much as 4 (small, light, capable) Caddx Orcas. It's also significantly more expensive than the DJI Osmo Action. I was looking into buying this but ended up with an Osmo Action, an Orca, and a load of accessories for the same amount of money! I don't see how the price is justified...
Sad thing is the storage , if use it to record for few hours , the storage might filled up and we'll need to download to the phone and clear the storage on Go2 , that's the thing that makes me still consider to get this or not :(
If you took this in a pool with the case not being waterproof would you not keep hitting the record on / off when holding the littler camera and in turn not know if it’s recording or not
Nice vid Aldryn, The white bothers me a lot. I only wear black and all my gear is black. White, not discreet at all. It's a pity, it an attractive camera.
While it will not be a instant buy for me, since I have a Osmo Action, and limited funds.. :) I do however REALLY like that magnetic chest mount.. Boy do I hate those regular harnesses.. This completely makes me WANT to have a camera on my chest for recording while I fly drones, go out with my kids etc.. Nice review as always Aldryn!

Great review! It seems like most of the features you are looking for are in the case itself as it acts as a remote and has all the info and controls needed while still keeping the camera mounted. All except the ability to disable the camera body button anyways. I'm definitely interested. 🤙🤙
Now watched about 10 vids on this new actions camera. And I have to say I prefer the go2 image to hero 9 and OA. And I’m pretty darn fussy. Highlight retention and colour is great.
Great insight, as always! I'm considering this for recording our Family Days - when you said that it wasn't really an all-day vlog camera, how much of the day were you able to capture during your days out with your fam?
Regarding the storage, I still have the question about where the actual storage is, if it's stored in the Go2 itself (I'd guess this is what it is) or if it's in the case (since it has wireless communication with the camera), so about the storage expansion, I was thinking that it might be possible to add a micro SD slot in the case, rather than in the camera itself, so when you're done recording with just the Go2 it can be transferred to the microSD in the case and free some storage in the camera itself to be able to record more footage before having to transfer it to your phone/computer
What is the bitrate when record in FPV mode? Can you rotate the video in the app before export, that was not possible with the Go1. And do you know if the size is the same as the Go1 or do I need a new mount on my fpv drone?
That’s 30 minutes continuous use, then you’d have to put it back in its case to recharge for a while. I typically do 5minute clips, so between clips it’s in the case recharging. The memory will fill up before the battery runs out anyway.
Don't they mean Insta 180 Go? It doesn't shoot 360 and you can't see your framing unless you use the app and your phone, at which point you might as well shoot with your phone - which probably has 4k.
Be careful with those DJI goggles laying with the faceplate up! If the sun gets in the lens at the wrong angle you can burn the screens and damage it permanently
But is it worth the $299 base price? Its a cool novelty, but $299 can probably be better spent. When I was an Ambassador for Insta360, I got to play with the first gen. It was neat, but had a few short comings at release. But it was priced accordingly. The price jump is no joke.
If they kept it at the $199 I would've jumped on that bargain.

Thanks Steve. Yes its a nice update from V1
This seems to be a really hot camera. Everyone is reviewing it.
I just ordered mine!! I see they have different colors but dang you almost like it in a kite camo color.
Insta360 makes sure lots of people review their cameras when they come out.
its called paid advertising.

Absolutely
I love my GoPro and Osmo action to capture kids at amusement parks and catching their reaction on rides. This is a plus as smaller in size. I hope magnets are strong enough to withstand rides.
Solid initial review!
It's all about just getting the shot.
This new upgraded Insta360 GO 2 could be the small and compact on the go action camera we have all been waiting for. Great review, you really covered almost everything.
5:19 lmao that face😂😂😂😂😂
Great video. Your memory expansion was in your pocket. This is designed to think differently, like shooting 360. If shooting long, offload the onboard to your cell, it doesn't the long at all
Holding the clip in your mouth - you get the Best Mounting Tip Award (from the American Dentists Association). Good balance review, thanks.
Great Presentation , Thank You
Good quality video, small size, no fragile display in exposed positions: i'm really glad that action cameras are starting to go back from vlogging devices to... well, actual action cameras!
Alot of other reviewers said the magnets weren't very strong. Is the magnet strong enough for using understeer shirt?
Awesome Aldryn! You covered it all! Interesting little camera. Thank you.
Thanks for the review and also for all the shot suggestions.
yes, more memory would be nice. maybe in the future they can put a micro SD card slot in the case and every time you put the go2 back in the case it automatically stores the files there...
I seriously like the camera footage on the go to compared to the 4K comparison camera it looks way better to me
If compare with insta360 X2 which is better for Travelling and for all around user ,🙏thank you
Pretty cool little cam. I think it would be easier to attach to my young nephews as they go hiking in Colorado. The GoPro is sometimes bulky on a toddler.
Exactly
Great points in this vid Aldryn! Seems like the size of this thing makes it really fun and convenient to bring around. Deeply considering picking one up.
how strong is that chest magnet?

Great review Aldryn!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for another great video. Does this have an app to control it? Also, what is the small tripod/handle you showed attached to your Osmo action?
Thorough review - thank you. Really, really nice camera. Having said that, it costs as much as 4 (small, light, capable) Caddx Orcas. It's also significantly more expensive than the DJI Osmo Action. I was looking into buying this but ended up with an Osmo Action, an Orca, and a load of accessories for the same amount of money! I don't see how the price is justified...
Great video! Can I charge the Go 2 using USB-C cable while recording video?
Sad thing is the storage , if use it to record for few hours , the storage might filled up and we'll need to download to the phone and clear the storage on Go2 , that's the thing that makes me still consider to get this or not :(
It may overheat, if recording for twice as long as it can do now.
If you took this in a pool with the case not being waterproof would you not keep hitting the record on / off when holding the littler camera and in turn not know if it’s recording or not
That looks like a great little camera love the little stand. And the stability is amazing.
Nice vid Aldryn,
The white bothers me a lot. I only wear black and all my gear is black. White, not discreet at all. It's a pity, it an attractive camera.
This looks sick!!
Its so small and easy to carry
Thanks for the vid... In the market for a action cam.
You bet
While it will not be a instant buy for me, since I have a Osmo Action, and limited funds.. :) I do however REALLY like that magnetic chest mount.. Boy do I hate those regular harnesses..

Excellent overview. Interesting camera. I watch all your reviews.
Is it this one, or a different Insta camera where you can get that crazy wide angle look - almost like you’re standing on top of the world? Thanks!!
Insta360 One X2 is the one.
@@FlytPath which one is better?
Wow fantastic upgrade from the original Go, great vid Aldryn 👍
Thanks! 👍
Great review! It seems like most of the features you are looking for are in the case itself as it acts as a remote and has all the info and controls needed while still keeping the camera mounted. All except the ability to disable the camera body button anyways. I'm definitely interested. 🤙🤙
Is there a provision to charge and use it at the same time?
A black color or something inconspicuous would be nice.
Specifications of the insta360 go2 is 32GB. But in fact my insta360 go2 is only 28GB. So your insta360 go2 internal memory is how much GB?
Dope overview Ace, thanks dude!
Any time! Thanks Erik
super video
wide angle topic missing
Thanks for the info
Now watched about 10 vids on this new actions camera. And I have to say I prefer the go2 image to hero 9 and OA.

There goes the use of my gimbal....just ordered thru your link.
WoW! awesome camera, thanks for sharing.
Could this be used as an an ad-hoc dash cam? What do you think? Great review. 👍🏼
Can it be used as a webcam by connecting to a computer via usb?
Regarding the storage, I still have the question about where the actual storage is, if it's stored in the Go2 itself (I'd guess this is what it is) or if it's in the case (since it has wireless communication with the camera), so about the storage expansion, I was thinking that it might be possible to add a micro SD slot in the case, rather than in the camera itself, so when you're done recording with just the Go2 it can be transferred to the microSD in the case and free some storage in the camera itself to be able to record more footage before having to transfer it to your phone/computer
The camara have the part for mount on dji fpv drone??
Really nice video thank you. This camera looks so cool!
Ohh 😮 it's so nice
Please, where did you get your On Screen Displays Actions, I mean the Lower Thirds, FlyOuts with icons and all?
Thanks.
That’s amazing how small it is
Wow that thing is awesome 😍👍🏻 maybe I could put it on the mavic ? 😄
Nice kamera what is the Price for this 🤔i Danmark
Cool upgrades and I like the mini tripod / holder for with the case. But the upgrade in price, it's kinda steep.
Is it easy to edit the videos in iMovie on a Mac? Easy to transfer to a Mac? Thanks!
Thank you very much for the review!👍🏻😉
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this review 😍 very very useful indeed 😍
How about editing video?
Is it only auto editing or can you do it all yourself and stitch clips together
This thing looks awesome!
Wow it's amazing action cam
10:55 what do you mean when you say the battery life is "solid" is that 10 minutes or 100 minutes?
do we get live preview on mobile
It would be cool if the Go 2 could be used as a webcam.
Agree
What is the bitrate when record in FPV mode? Can you rotate the video in the app before export, that was not possible with the Go1.
And do you know if the size is the same as the Go1 or do I need a new mount on my fpv drone?
How many minutes does it record?
Good job man!
Thank you! Cheers!
Nice informative video and camera, My question is if this camera can be used as webcam on zoom calls ? please advice? Thanks in advance
From what I know as of now no. Not sure if this will be opened up in the future somehow.
I've been thinking to get this but, isn't 30minutes of battery life too short? Anyone?
That’s 30 minutes continuous use, then you’d have to put it back in its case to recharge for a while. I typically do 5minute clips, so between clips it’s in the case recharging. The memory will fill up before the battery runs out anyway.
hi, can you start the recording from the case while it is mounted to something or someone?
Yes the case is a remote
@@FlytPath cool thanks
Go Pro be like: Should I stop making cameras now?
I’ll grab one when the price reduces. I can see this as an everyday carry hands free camera
Good One Sir..I like it
EXCELLENT JOB
It's mini! I want to get a insta360 go 2!
Great review ✌🏼
Glad you think so!
W review tbh
great review!!
is the new version can record without limited time ? or only can record max 1 minutes ?
30 min
@@FlytPath really brother ? so we can record until 30 minutes . thnx for the info , because i have version 1 and it sucks only can record max 1 minute
Ha!! I just saw a Mr.Whostheboss video on this!
Good review Aldryn.
Glad you enjoyed it
Usable stabilization: No
Ample storage/expandable storage: No
Easy "mid-action" operation of the device: No
Aldryn. How would the camera fare being a chest camera for my job as Loss Prevention. I need something to capture video.
I could work. I just don't like you can lock it. I want to hit record and lock it so you cant accidentally press it off.
*Does the camera itself not the case have a replaceable battery?*
Both have built in battery
@@FlytPath are they both replaceable or just the one in the case?
great review
Don't they mean Insta 180 Go? It doesn't shoot 360 and you can't see your framing unless you use the app and your phone, at which point you might as well shoot with your phone - which probably has 4k.
Insta360 is the company name...
@@yihongke3665 Yeah, I get that, I'm just mocking them for promoting this stupid waste of money.
Cool, a baby tripod
Cool little camera! Great review. #FlytPath
Looks good
Great review... you, 51 Drones and Capt Drone must be working together, y’all uploaded reviews on the same cam at the same time. LOL.
lol
They were all told to wait until same time and day before being allowed... Standard practice these days
@@Mrmhibbert yeah... I get how it works. It just cracked me up.
Can you close the case with the lense protector on it?
Yes.
Can you where to purchase please, thank you 🙏
Get the Insta360 GO 2 here: geni.us/T53i
@@FlytPath thank you 🙏
@@FlytPath thank you I got my insta 360 go 2, I have a question it’s getting hot when I try to recording video why it is?
Do we really need another low-rez camera?
Nice 👍
there's a lock in the charger
Be careful with those DJI goggles laying with the faceplate up! If the sun gets in the lens at the wrong angle you can burn the screens and damage it permanently
would be nice to put on mavic air 2,,,,
I'll be waiting for your test,,regards from Indonesia
