Insta360 GO 2 is a miniscule action camera that weighs less than an ounce

Add as a preferred source on Google

When you’re on the move and trying to keep up with the action, the last thing you want is a hefty camera weighing you down. The Insta360 GO 2 is the perfect solution to this problem. At only 27 grams, the camera weighs less than an ounce but still provides high-resolution, hands-free recording with an action camera.

The Insta360 GO 2 includes a 1/2.3-inch image sensor that yields 1440p videos, ensuring high-quality results no matter what you’re recording. Whether you post your videos on your social media feed or to a dedicated YouTube channel, they’ll stand out. The signature FlowState stabilization and horizon leveling algorithms mean your video will be steady no matter how many bumps you hit or hills you crest.

The GO 2 Charge Case lets you keep your power level up even on the go. Just snap it into the case and the GO 2 will be charged in half an hour. Between its normal charge and the case, the GO 2 can keep filming for up to 150 minutes before it requires a dedicated charge at home — that’s nearly double the length of most action cams.

The GO 2 case also acts as a remote, a tripod, and a handheld grip. You can control the GO 2 from up to 33 feet away tusing the Charge Case’s Bluetooth connection.

If you’re hitting the waves, the GO 2 can withstand water up to 13 feet thanks to its IPX8 waterproofing. The scratchproof, hardened glass Lens Guard protects the lens from dirt, debris, and even the gnarliest wipeouts.

Perhaps the most interesting feature of the GO2 is the ultrawide, adjustable field of view. You can choose exactly which angle you need to capture the perfect shot. The 120-degree Ultra Wide FOV is perfect for landscape shots, while a 110-degree ActionView works best for those first-person perspectives.

When you’re done shooting, you might be too tired to bother editing. The FlashCut 2.0 feature lets A.I. handle the editing for you, cutting your clips into a cohesive story and setting them to the perfect tunes.

The Insta360 GO 2 action camera is available today at retailers around the world and from Insta360.com for $300.

Motorola just leaked its next Android phone, and it could be the perfect mid-ranger for you
More than the confirmed specifications, I’m concerned about the Indian pricing and the US availability.

Motorola has done something unusual. Before officially unveiling the Edge 70 Pro+ on June 4, 2026, in India, the brand had published all the specifications, pictures, and other marketing material related to the phone on its website. 

It’s all there, before the launch, leaving nothing for the rumor mill to speculate about. And it isn’t accidental, because the landing page hasn’t been taken down. It just says that the product is currently out of stock while revealing everything else.

You could soon use Apple Music without paying full price
A person holds an iPhone 11 with the Apple Music app open.

Apple Music has spent years proudly standing apart from Spotify and other streaming rivals by refusing to offer a free listening tier. That stance may not change just yet, but a newly discovered clue suggests Apple could be experimenting with different subscription tiers for its music service.

The discovery comes from developer Aaron Perris, who spotted new strings inside the beta version of Apple Music for Android. Among them are references to “premium access” and an error message that appears after a user reaches a track-skipping limit. On their own, the strings don’t tell us much. However, they paint an interesting picture.

Oppo next flagship could bless your selfies with a 100-megapixel front camera
A leaked 100MP square-format front sensor for the OPPO Find X10 would make it the first Android phone to rethink selfie camera geometry.
Oppo Find X9 Ultra Back

The last time a selfie camera really impressed me was the iPhone 17’s Center Stage front camera, but no Android manufacturer even comes close. It looks like smartphone makers have forgotten the front cameras, as there has been no serious innovation in the last few years. 

Well, Oppo might change that arrangement this year. Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station (via Weibo) claims that Oppo is testing a 100MP square-format front camera sensor for its purported Find X10 series. If it makes the cut to a commercial release, the Find X10 would be the first Android smartphone to ship with a 1:1 square selfie sensor.
