Despite the fact that many areas are still locked down to some extent, that doesn’t mean that you can’t still get out and explore the world around you. But instead of worrying about using your smartphone for snapping pictures or recording videos, you can use something like the all-new Insta360 GO 2. This action camera measures in at just 52.9 x 23.6 x 20.7mm (2.08 x 0.93 x 0.81in) and weighs less than 27 grams without the included charging case. 

Between the size and portability aspect, Insta360 is also offering a slew of accessories to help make the GO 2 fit into any situation that you would need a camera for. In the box, you’ll find the following:

• Insta360 GO 2
• Charge Case
• Charge Cable
• Magnet Pendant
• Easy Clip
• Pivot Stand
• QuickStart Guide

The fun with the GO 2 doesn’t just start with the camera itself, but instead starts with the Magnet Pendant, Easy Clip, and Pivot Stand. With the Pendant around your neck, you can quickly attach the GO 2, and just go on about your adventure. Then, you’ll have a POV recording without tying up your hands or needing to fiddle around with bulky accessories just to get the right view for your recordings.

The Easy Clip does something similar but is more-so designed for those who want to wear a hat while out and about. The clip itself makes it so you can adjust the angle of the GO 2, without trying to bend the brim of your hat in an awkward direction or anything of the sorts.

Rounding out the ensemble is the Pivot Stand. This allows for you to easily mount the GO 2 wherever you want, whether it’s to the side of a car, or to your kitchen cabinet. Then, you can rotate and “pivot” the camera to get the best angles for whatever you’re trying to record. Plus, the stand is foldable, so it’s easy to keep stowed away until the next time you need it.

The Insta360 GO 2 could very well be the most versatile action camera that we’ve seen to date, and that’s despite being the GO line being the only option from Insta360 that doesn’t include 360-degree video recording. The company could be onto something here, as this action camera could pique the interest of even those who wouldn’t normally consider an action camera.

If you’re interested in getting the Insta360 GO 2, you can head over to the company’s website and pick one up today for just $299.99. You’ll not only get the GO 2, but also will get a variety of accessories, including the charging case, lens guard, and the different attachments. The company will also be launching a special Insta360 GO 2 Minions Edition later this Summer if you want to have some fun.
