Insta360 GO 3S – 128 GB Black 4K Tiny Portable Vlogging Camera, Hands-Free POVs, Mount Anywhere, Stabilization, 140 Min Battery Life, 10m Waterproof, Pet POV

Really Impressed!
I have used many types of action cameras over the years from various manufacturers and over the last few years, I continue to be more and more impressed with advances that Insta360 have been making. The build quality of this camera, like many of their devices is excellent. As soon as I unpacked it, I was impressed by the solid build and little bit of heft it has, you can quickly tell that is is not just a cheap plastic toy, it feels very well built. The user interface is also something that Insta360 seems to knock out of the park with how easy the menu system and setup is, this includes the responsiveness of the menus, everything is very snappy when navigating around, no lag like I have seen with GoPro in the past. This ease of use extends to the app as well which is very well polished and the connectivity with my iPhone has been flawless so far, no “failed to connect” type errors that I have had with previous cameras.I have not had a chance yet to use it extensively, but the video quality of everything that I have captured in 4K looks very good for a camera that is so tiny! It is worth mentioning that this probably isn’t a replacement for a more traditional action camera for some users because of its use of internal memory and no swappable batteries, but I knew that going into it and wanted it for specific uses because I do also have the Ace Pro from Insta360 as my traditional action camera. The only problem I have had so far and might be something that can be improved with firmware is the charging between the camera and the pod. If you leave the camera stored in the pod for any length of time, it seems to continue to try to charge the camera which is just wasting energy and you will see the battery life drop. This has not been much of an issue when just out and about using it, but if you fully charge it one day and leave the camera stored in the pod for a few days, you will be disappointed to go back to it and find a lot of the battery life drained from that last charge. For that reason, when not in use, I leave the camera out of the pod. Once I figured out that it was doing that, I learned how to work around it and it has not been much of an issue but would be nice to see improved in a future firmware update. Overall, I love the camera so far for everyday casual use, I am glad I held out on buying one of the previous versions and waited for this updated 4K version.

Overheating significantly-Updated to five stars
This is a nice little camera — very versatile and convenient, with great picture and video quality. The video editing app could be better; I personally prefer using VivaVideo instead. A big issue is that it overheats significantly and very quickly, pausing charging until it cools down.I tried contacting customer service for help but had no success in resolving the issue. The support team replied suggesting steps to reduce overheating and informed me that stopping after about 20 minutes due to overheating is considered “within the normal range.” This isn’t a total dealbreaker, but it’s very annoying and inconvenient. I’ll keep it because it’s for my travels and not for professional use, but this is definitely an area that needs improvement.Updated Review — 5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I originally left a lower review due to overheating issues with my Insta360 Go 3s, but I’m updating it to 5 stars because of the excellent customer service I received from Insta360. Eddie from their support team personally reached out to me, asked for detailed information about the problem, and offered to replace my camera with the Insta360 Go 3 Ultra.He was incredibly kind, patient, and professional — even though I couldn’t return the old camera until almost a month later, the process was smooth and easy once I did. The replacement was sent promptly, and I’m very impressed by how attentive and responsive the team has been.I haven’t had the chance to fully test the Ultra yet, so I can’t review it in depth, but I’m very grateful for the way Insta360 handled everything. Excellent customer service can truly make all the difference — thank you, Eddie and the Insta360 team! 🙌
