Manual of product GO 2
Editorial note
The Insta360 GO 2 stands out for its compactness and lightness, weighing only 26.5 g, making it an ideal companion for capturing moments on the go without bulk. Its modern design and weather resistance allow it to be used in various conditions, making this camera perfect for outdoor adventurers. Additionally, the image quality is remarkable with a video resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels and HDR features, ensuring clear recordings even in low light. However, the Insta360 GO 2 has some limitations. The lack of a built-in microphone may affect the audio quality of recordings, requiring external equipment for better sound capture. Furthermore, the fixed and non-touchscreen display may make navigation through the menus less intuitive, thus limiting the user experience. The internal memory of 32 GB may also prove insufficient for those wishing to record long videos, especially with a recording time limited to 30 minutes. Finally, the absence of Wi-Fi connectivity complicates the quick sharing of files, making content transfer more cumbersome. In summary, the Insta360 GO 2 offers an overall positive user experience thanks to its intuitive features and image quality, but its limitations in audio and storage may not suit all users.Score details
