Not sure what was better..."Derp face shots" or your reaction to your friend crashing his scooter 😂 Great review Michael, excited to see more GO 2 adventures!
Hey cool to see Insta360 here, I think the GO 2 is an awesome camera and would love a secure mount that would work for something like surfing. Having a camera that small mounted on you while surfing would be much better than something like a GoPro just because of size alone.
You have some of the most captivating imagery and audio I've seen in the UA-cam world. Nice video as always - I'll stick around for your personality AND your insights.
I think on the whole his production value is second to none and the effort is obvious. There are big commercial companies I'm subscribed to that's content is nowhere near as well done.
It looks brutal, I know - but my brother (the guy I was running down in that shot) was actually fine! (Obligatory: you should probably wear a helmet, unlike idiots like us.)
@@TheMrMobile Michael,could you tell me where you source the music for your videos? The background music is on spot every time. I want to start a new channel and I would like to source the same style of music you use. Hope I get a reply ✌️😄
👍 Awesome review. The different mounting capabilities are terrific. I think my biggest negative is the battery. Good to know if camera can be charging while recording. That could be a useful option. Thanks, as always, for the useful info👍
He’s an idiot, “when phones were fun” implies that phones aren’t fun anymore. I have far more fun on a modern smartphone than I did with a boring dumb phone that only made calls and occasionally texted, poorly.
@@tanksoo There's no reason why that should be the case though. Especially when tons of laptops are moving to USB-C ports only, that effectively means I literally wouldn't be able to connect the camera to a computer because of Insta360's nonsensical limitation.
Your reviews are consistently fun, full of life, and still give great insight to the product in question and is what truly hooked me on you and your channel. This camera looks real fun to use outside of the pairing process. Hopefully they make a second one that improves its flaws
I LOVED my Go2 for the two weeks it lasted, those little tripod legs are great until it falls and the internal lens breaks. I'll probably buy another one and be more careful as it lets you capture things that you would never capture with anything else. I miss the little fella.
Wow another Mr mobile banger!! I still can't believe that this much of quality and still isn't one of the biggest tech UA-camrs according to subs count!! Mr mobile is one of 2 UA-camrs I get excited when they upload : 1 Dank pods 2 mr mobile
This video is the reason why watching Michael's videos are my number 1 go to choice. *HONESTY* . No payments, no back handers, when there is a fault / improvement needed, MF says it. Tell's it straight.
Thank you so much for the review. I thought it was just me. I’m a sucker for Insta360 I own 3 cameras from them including this one. I’ve had ruff setups and even one camera heated up so bad I contacted support. Long story short technical support blew my problem off. So kinda of a love hate relationship with company.
Thank you for pointing out the obvious flaw with this (I expected this). All the other reviews on the Insta360 Go2 didn't even mention this. Good job! Btw, awesome production quality as always 👌
Nothing is EVEN BETTER on a review than THE Mr. Mobile review. I said it. He can turn an ordinary gadget review into a story telling that Streaming services can pick up. Sheer finesse on point.
Loved the review, but the surfshark presentation took the cake. "Hot single trekkies near you..." 😂👍 Keep up the good work. And... stay mobile my friend 😉👍
Even given its diminutive size, one would have expected some sort of SD Card support, at least then support for ½ - 1TB would not be out of the question.
I would love this if only I could find a way to mount it to a motorcycle helmet with a magnet but still have a tether/lanyard in case the magnet fails to hold it
Great video sir..I got the go 2 to use at the casinos that aren't very video friendly..lol..I've been using the dji ozmo pocket which has worked great..Thank You..Take Care..
those accessories look pretty cool. after al these years with other action cameras, the versatility is definitely key to long-term usefulness. Dealing with the rough setup is a shame though, tech-enthusiasts might be able to deal with it but kids and boomers might find themselves up a creek
If I had the money, I’d absolutely buy this camera. Like you say, it’s all about the versatility. Being able to shoot video in a new and fresh way makes the experience so much more enjoyable Also, the slow transfer speeds could be helped by connecting the camera to your phone directly (although you’d probably need an OTG cable or find a C to C cable that’s compatible with the camera)
also don't use rental scooters buy one yourself i own a ninebot g30 and the freedom of a range of 60+ km for free you can't beat that and they are so much prettier than rental scooters i love owning one and i recommend doing it i really recommend it
So do you think it's a good solution for the clip-on first perspective scenarios? It seems like a more versatile solution than mounting some GoPro rig on your chest or shoulder but not sure how much quality is impacted by it.
At 8:57 it's said that the included usb-cable is the only one that works, that's incorrect, atleast for my unit. I've never used the stock cable and have the camera connected to my PC right now using a regular oneplus cable that I also use with my phone. Suppose you could have an older firmware or it could be that it only works with usb-c to a and not usb-c to c.
The GoPro freezes but has a mode that allows you to record a little before you press record. That’s key to me. I’m going to read up on whether this one does. If not, I may end up returning it.
Mmm perfect timing i’m hunting for a tiny camera for any purposes, it looks less intrusive and suits my style. I can tolerate the quality given by it. But... Dang it is much hassle for camera. with the asking price, could buy me a handycam or other small action cam Yeah agreed, i might have to wait for later iteration instead
I'm very interested in a go3 - if they can just bring freaking user storage for a little more chonk and make 3rd party cables that would make life be so much easier... Repairability would be essential with such a small batter too 🙏
this video meant a lot sense I lived in Hampton all my life and In feel Virginia is such a beautiful place that not a lot of people know about or haven't seen.
Around 8:20, much later on, he said it took 45 min to transfer video to app. Oh, how the time flies by when it took probably 2.5 to 4 hours to transfer all videos on an 8GB memory device to laptop. In the future it will be like what Dane Cook said, "but the DMV will still take 9 F**KING SECONDS! NINE SECONDS??? I HAVE TO BE A WORK IN 3 SECONDS!!!!" 🤣🤣
Not sure what was better..."Derp face shots" or your reaction to your friend crashing his scooter 😂 Great review Michael, excited to see more GO 2 adventures!
oh a company actually commenting on other channels, very cool . Looking forward to buy it

Erm, while I like the Lumias a lot, they are not strictly speaking old
Fuck those, specially the first sony xperia ones

He’s an idiot, “when phones were fun” implies that phones aren’t fun anymore. I have far more fun on a modern smartphone than I did with a boring dumb phone that only made calls and occasionally texted, poorly.
I love the concept but with the camera forcing you to use their cable that came with it is an big turn off for me.
Yeah. I mean that shouldn't be a thing with usb-c, if implemented correctly.
It just doesn't work with a USB C-C cable, I tried with other A-C cables and they are all good.
@@tanksoo There's no reason why that should be the case though. Especially when tons of laptops are moving to USB-C ports only, that effectively means I literally wouldn't be able to connect the camera to a computer because of Insta360's nonsensical limitation.

the camera falling when he was talking about the stand and wind, i could my hand want to grab out of fear like dropping a phone
That's crash brought a new meaning to stay mobile my friends ouch
This reminds me a lot of the re camera by HTC. I loved that camera really cool. Just the quality and connection times held me back.
Expected a joke about the "go to" camera. Got hardly disappointed... 🤣
That exact USB thumb drive is so useful for Mac Windows.

Excellent review!! 👏

Here is a hint for time-lapses in jets: Close the window shade over your phone and it holds it perfectly in place!
These ads at 5:06 are much better than what you would see on websites that's filled with irrelevant ads 😂

The GOAT of tech reviews.
My favorite thing about this is that ALL ACCESSORIES COME IN THE BOX.
That is so rare and refreshing to see these days.
Didn't expect that Wilhelm scream 😂
Thanks for covering this. I had some concerns which u answered 😅. I'll wait for the Go3 for now.
Every one of those negatives/caveats is an absolute deal-breaker at $300 imo, and the cable one at any price point. Shame.
I'm super happy with mine. Keep using it every day
300 us Def 2 much. This thing is worth 149 maxxxxx
When you have a device that's so portable and easy to use, you tend to overlook its issues.
I knew this one form a certain video about recording a cat's shenanigans xDDDDD I certainly wasn't expecting a review from this channel
Now this a proper review.
Great video sir..I got the go 2 to use at the casinos that aren't very video friendly..lol..I've been using the dji ozmo pocket which has worked great..Thank You..Take Care..
Great review as always. Thank you!
Hands down the best scripts in tech tube industry 🙌🙌🙌

An advertisement about an advertisement blocker. That was smooth 😂
those accessories look pretty cool. after al these years with other action cameras, the versatility is definitely key to long-term usefulness. Dealing with the rough setup is a shame though, tech-enthusiasts might be able to deal with it but kids and boomers might find themselves up a creek
what a great design.
When the camera fell over I lunged on pure reflex
I'm just here for the momentary visual embraces with Cogen...
If I had the money, I’d absolutely buy this camera. Like you say, it’s all about the versatility. Being able to shoot video in a new and fresh way makes the experience so much more enjoyable
Also, the slow transfer speeds could be helped by connecting the camera to your phone directly (although you’d probably need an OTG cable or find a C to C cable that’s compatible with the camera)
music in your videos is always lit 🔥

9:44 David Cogen doing Mr. Mobile's dirty work :)

would definitely buy this camera
So do you think it's a good solution for the clip-on first perspective scenarios? It seems like a more versatile solution than mounting some GoPro rig on your chest or shoulder but not sure how much quality is impacted by it.
I wonder if Techmoan will review this too, reminds me of his old dash/action cam gadgets.

Yeah is so easy to use it everywhere. And i have the 64gb one so is all great. For holidays is just awesome. Clips.
Yo the shot of the camera falling over next to the crappy kickstand Nintendo switch killed me. I hope that detail was intentional!
