    So far I have only ever used GoPro 10 and Osmo Action 2 and 3. And just recently the Insta360 X4 for my holiday in Asia. GoPro and Osmo Action are real nice for what I use them for (POV shots type of videos). but are still bulky but they are good for cameras. The Insta 360 X4 is also very good for my usage (360 degree video while hiking or in a farm, or in nice scenery). The downside was the fact that it overheats. Specially in Asia where it is already hot, the camera just shuts down. And it is not small either. Not big but it is definitely not small! Still it is a fun camera to use. now with the GO 3 and the 3S the small size really makes it nice because for one its not as big as the gopro or osmo action, you can put it on your hat, or on your shirt while doing some stuff and you can take POV videos with it. I guess my issue then is that the battery life without its pod is a bit small. But ye that size is very convenient.

    Be thankful you did not wait. This 4K edition is heavier, overheats faster and therefore records for a shorter time span! The spec they advertise for is 1080P/ 30FPS, taken indoors out of the sun. But they don’t tell you that, they just talk about the 4K capture, higher bit rate and new recording feature. Although, non of the new capabilities mature if there is a problem with overheating 🥵 and therefore a loss in capture time! Then you must wait for the camera to cool down, which is additional lost time. The ONLY way to compensate for this is to leave the camera in the action pod, which totally defeats the purpose in buying the system!!! Might as well purchase the GoPro with better battery life, a wider angle of view, clear shots that are not over sharpened and has better color reproduction right out of the box, without needing to make any fiddly adjustments!!!

    Gopro overheat and shut down. I've lost footage because of it. Gopro are OK, but the idea of this is you can take camera out of pod and get creative and it is a little less intrusive. It may not be for everyone but I'm enjoying it so far. Along with my Sony zve10, gopro 12 and osmo pocket 3. Each do a different job. I think. 😉

    I have this Insta go 3S and I love it. I also have a bunch of other cameras, maybe three or four different ones that I use for different things I got this because of how tiny the camera was specially in the pod or I should stay out of the pod. I like that it’s waterproof and I also bought the waterproof case in case if I wanted to bring both underwater, but like I said, I find it to be inexpensive and I use my cameras for different things. I have another one. I forget the name that the top piece comes off and it’s magnetic so I could sit it on top of my car, but I could also move it left or right up and down Something I can’t use my car that I will be uploading soon. It’s great to be in 2024. We have so many options and inexpensive for a few thousand dollars. You could get yourself a few different cameras and play with them is pretty what you’re getting and how many different devices I have for the price. Sorry this is a little wonky. I’m using voice to text. I hope to get up soon as. Great video by the way.

One thing to add, theres no way to add an external mic and noise reduction is rubbish , by having an option to add an external mic would help. Theres more honest video on this product, i guess being a paid promotion i didnt expect much from this average, what ever this video is .. poor sales pitch i guess

    Your video is very misleading because the new 4K model Files are so large and it requires so much compressing of the file when recording that the battery overheats in the unit shuts off. Additionally you’ll only get a 15 minute video before the battery is dead if it doesn’t overheat. And a 15 minute clip can be as large as 4 GB. When you use the application and download it to your phone it takes forever. And if it’s running on it’s on battery power you can forget about using the camera when you’re done transferring the file. You have to wait for the camera to cool down before returning it to its home base unit to be recharged Which takes additional time. GoPro is the very best; smaller files, better audio/ video, and it does not overheat and shut off while it use!!!!!!

    You are joking, right? GoPros do not overheat or shutdown? LOL. And smaller files for the same resolution just means lower bitrates, which means lower quality for the same codec. The Go 3S max bitrate is 120 Mbps, which is not higher than GoPros max bitrate, so the files cannot be bigger. The GO 3S is obviously much smaller and lighter than any GoPro, that's it's point. GoPros do have higher frame rate options in 4K, which is good, but they are much bigger and heavier.
