## What reviewers say

Two whitelisted testers (Tom's Guide, TechRadar), both hands-on and field/lab-tested the exact Insta360 GO 3S. Both praise its class-leading tiny size, the free 4K upgrade over the Go 3, stabilization and companion app, and both flag modest battery life, no external mic, and image quality trailing full-size action cams. All quotes and measured values were confirmed against the fetched pages. (Based on 2 reviews, 2 lab-tested, 2024-06-13.)

Praised: Smallest/lightest form factor with versatile magnetic mounting for unique POVs; 4K resolution upgrade over the Go 3 at no extra cost; Effective stabilization; Flip-up screen (Action Pod) and best-in-class companion app for editing and remote control.
Flagged: Modest battery life from the tiny standalone camera; No external microphone support; Image/video quality still trails dedicated action cams (Osmo Action 4, Hero 12 Black), especially in poor light; Non-expandable internal-only storage.
Disagreement: No direct contradiction. The two testers frame battery life differently because of test configuration: Tom's Guide measured 120 min at 4K/30p with the Action Pod and called the result 'very respectable,' while TechRadar emphasizes the standalone camera's 38-min 1080p limit as a 'sour note.' Both note the standalone camera's short runtime; the divergence reflects with-vs-without-Pod testing rather than a real conflict.
