The company has also provided 50 per cent more CPU computing power, along with a new wide-angle lens, that is equipped to capture surroundings with maximum detail.

For a true-to-life POV capture, Insta360 Go 3S also allows users to switch between aspect ratios and get a hands-free handling experience. The camera is designed fit for the outdoors and the company has added a FlowState Stabilization feature to minimise bumps on your way. Apart from that, the action camera also comes water resistant up to 33 feet, as opposed to the GO 3, which offers only 16 feet. 

To get rid of accidental fumbling, Insta360 has also added in gesture and voice controls that make it easy to navigate through the camera. If that’s not all, the captured footage can also be combined using the AI-powered Auto Edit feature, no matter the event or outing. Lastly, owing to its size, the Insta360 gets Apple Find My support for instances where you accidentally leave it somewhere.
