Insta360 has introduced the new GO 3S, a 4K thumb camera designed for capturing action and vlogging footage. Available in black and white, the GO 3S is incredibly compact and lightweight, making it ideal for creators on the move. The camera features a versatile magnetic design for easy mounting and is splash-proof, ensuring reliable use in different conditions.
Enhanced Resolution and Performance
The GO 3S marks a significant improvement over its predecessor, the GO 3, now offering breathtaking 4K resolution at 30fps, almost double the resolution of the previous model. It is powered by a newly upgraded high-performance chip that provides a 50% increase in CPU processing power for enhanced performance. Additionally, the camera features a new wide-angle lens for capturing expansive scenes.
Insta360 has focused on enhancing low-light performance in the GO 3S. Users can expect improved image clarity, brightness, and color saturation in low-light conditions. The camera also introduces a new “Natural Wide-Angle FOV” that minimizes edge distortion for a more realistic viewing experience. For those interested in selfies and vlogs, the new portrait filter softens and naturalizes skin tones. The GO 3S also supports Dolby Vision HDR, delivering vivid colors when previewing and exporting footage.
Versatile Shooting and Control Options
The GO 3S offers various shooting and control options to enhance the user experience. It can be used independently or paired with an expansion compartment for extended battery life and additional features. The 2.2-inch flip touchscreen simplifies control, offering functionalities like charging, image transmission, and remote control. The GO 3S introduces a new “interval recording” function, which automatically captures shots at set intervals and uses AI-powered automatic editing to create highlight reels effortlessly.
For quick adjustments, the GO 3S features a horizontal/vertical shooting switch, allowing users to change the video aspect ratio instantly. The camera supports both voice and gesture control, making it perfect for group photos or noisy environments. Additionally, the GO 3S is compatible with Apple’s Find My network, enabling users to locate their misplaced camera using an iPhone, iPad, or MacBook.

Insta360 offers several features to streamline the content creation process. These include Quick Material Transfer for efficient footage transfer, App One-Click Preview for instant footage preview within the Insta360 app, and the optional Flash Transfer Companion accessory for even faster transfers. The GO 3S also includes various creative special effects like ND Mirror Effects and Trajectory Time-lapse to add unique elements to videos.
