  • Insta360 GO 3S: 4K Thumb-Sized Camera with Apple Find My Support

    Insta360 GO 3S: 4K Thumb-Sized Camera with Apple Find My Support

    Insta360 has launched the GO 3S, an enhanced version of its acclaimed, compact GO 3 (review) action camera. The latest model offers upgraded video recording capabilities and includes a feature that many users will appreciate – Apple Find My support.

    Previously limited to 2.7K resolution, the GO 3S now supports 4K recording at 30fps. It also offers a 2.7K mode at 50fps for smoother slow-motion footage. While current displays might not fully utilize 4K playback, this upgrade provides futureproofing and greater versatility for recorded videos.

    Apple Find My Compatibility

    One significant enhancement is the Apple Find My compatibility. By pairing the GO 3S with an iPhone, users can locate the small camera via the Find My app, as long as it has some battery life, whether it’s switched on or off.

    However, Insta360 notes that the Find My functionality is “significantly limited” underwater due to Bluetooth signal interference. Additionally, the included Action Pod does not feature Find My support, requiring users to keep track of it manually.

    Additional Features and Improvements

    Apart from 4K recording and Find My, the GO 3S offers several other advancements. The water resistance has doubled from 16ft (5m) to 33ft (10m), but this applies only to the camera itself. The Action Pod needs a separate Dive Case for underwater use.

    A new MegaView FOV setting provides an ultra-wide mode with reduced distortion, while the Interval Video function allows the camera to turn on and off at set intervals for extended activities.

    Slow motion capabilities have been improved to a maximum of 200fps at 1080p and 100fps at 2.7K. Timelapse videos now include a Dynamic Timelapse effect that crops the footage to simulate panning shots, making it ideal for capturing cityscapes or sunsets.

    The GO 3S can also automatically detect and adjust settings for horizontal or vertical shooting, which is particularly beneficial for creating social media content.

    Design and Pricing

    Visually, the GO 3S is nearly identical to its predecessor and is available in the same color options — black and white.

    The pricing remains consistent with the GO 3. The 64GB model starts at $399.99, and the 128GB version is available for $429.99. While the GO 3 has a more affordable 32GB option for $379.99, spending just an additional $20 provides double the storage capacity.

  • Insta360 Go 3S Leaks: 4K Recording & Action Pod Support Revealed

    Insta360 Go 3S Leaks: 4K Recording & Action Pod Support Revealed

    Insta360, recognized for its remarkable 360 cameras, is preparing to unveil a new model, the Go 3S, on June 13th. Prior to the launch, well-known leaker Igor Bogdanov (@Quadro_News) has released the official renders and specifications of the action camera.

    Design and Features

    The Go 3S appears to be a progressive upgrade over last year’s Insta360 Go 3. The renders show that it maintains the compact design of its predecessor, reminiscent of an oversized Tic Tac with an eyeball.

    The most significant enhancement seems to be the move to 4K video recording. The Go 3 was limited to a 2.7K resolution at 30 frames per second. This increase in resolution could attract users who value higher-quality footage.

    Accessory Compatibility

    The leaks also indicate that the Go 3S will remain compatible with the existing Action Pod accessory. This accessory converts the small camera into a more conventional action camera form factor, providing extra features along with the improved video resolution.

    The action camera also surfaced on an Amazon listing (which has since been removed) that hinted at a 128GB storage option. The listing suggested a feature set mostly similar to the current Go 3.

    Launch and Availability

    The global release date for the Go 3S is still uncertain. While its launch in China is scheduled for June 13th, there’s no information yet on whether this will be an exclusive release or if a broader release is in the works.

    Overall, the leaks point to a modest upgrade for the Insta360 Go series. The transition to 4K video recording is a positive development, but specifics such as pricing and worldwide availability are still unknown. We’ll have to wait for an official announcement from Insta360 to get a complete understanding of the Go 3S.

  • Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra to offer 4K video recording at 120fps

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra to offer 4K video recording at 120fps

    Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: Enhanced 4K Video Capture at 120fps

    Samsung is preparing for the debut of its much-anticipated flagship Galaxy S24 lineup. While fans are eagerly anticipating the official reveal, recent leaks have surfaced, revealing details about the video recording capabilities of the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Here’s the current information available.

    Improved Video Capture

    As per the insights from the well-known leaker Ice Universe, the premium Galaxy S24 Ultra model is projected to introduce 4K video recording at an impressive 120 frames per second (fps). This upgrade represents a substantial leap from its predecessor, the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which supports 4K recording solely at 60fps.

    Stage of Testing

    Ice Universe noted in a tweet that this feature is still undergoing testing and may not be guaranteed in the final retail unit. Despite the excitement this news brings to Samsung enthusiasts, it’s essential to remember that there’s a possibility of changes before the official launch.

    A Milestone for the Galaxy S Series

    Should the leaked details prove accurate, the Galaxy S24 Ultra would stand as the inaugural device in the Galaxy S series to offer 4K video recording at 120fps. While some rival smartphone brands have already integrated this feature into their flagship models, it has yet to become a mainstream offering in the industry. By incorporating this function, Samsung could potentially set a new benchmark for high-quality video recording on smartphones.

    Exclusive Pre-Order Perks

    In addition to the particulars about video recording, intel about the pre-order advantages for the Galaxy S24 series has come to light. According to an internal source, customers pre-ordering these devices may enjoy a doubled storage capacity. This implies that purchasers of the 256GB version of the S24, S24+, or S24 Ultra might receive a complimentary upgrade to the 512GB variant.

    Supplementary Incentives

    Beyond the enhanced storage, pre-order customers could also be entitled to other appealing bonuses. Reports indicate that Samsung may provide discounted prices on a Galaxy Watch model and Galaxy Buds FE through special coupons. These offers are aimed at delivering added value to early adopters of the Galaxy S24 series.

    The leaks surrounding the Samsung Galaxy S24 series have stirred excitement among tech enthusiasts as we anticipate the official launch. The rumored 4K video recording at 120fps and the enticing pre-order benefits position the Galaxy S24 Ultra as a device deserving of close attention.
