There is also 'Easy Clip', a tailor-made accessory to attach cameras on hats. With this, users can shoot hands-free high-angle shots effortlessly.

The company also has Pivot Stand, a reusable sticky mount with an adjustable design that allows for tricky angles to be shot with ease. The stand can be unscrewed to reveal a 1/4-inch mounting point for attaching to a selfie stick or tripod.

And, there is a multi-purpose Action Pod, which comes with a 2.2-inch touch-sensitive screen, with which, Insta360 Go 3 can dock to. With this, users can see preview of the video or image and also get the camera charged up simultaneously. It also supports the aforementioned three accessories too.

When unattached from Go 3, users can use Action Pod's touch screen as a remote controller to adjust the video quality or change modes.
The new Insta360 camera houses a 310mAh battery which is enough to shoot content for up to 45 minutes without the Action Pod. This 50 per cent longer battery life compared to the predecessor.

With the dual microphones and Voice Control 2.0 feature, it promises to record clearer audio with less distortion.
