Following the great success of the GO series, Insta360 released a new compact yet powerful action camera, designed to capture family moments, travel adventures, and anything you want without carrying heavy gear. Insta360 GO Ultra is slightly bigger and heavier due to the new 1/1.28″ sensor, which is 221% larger than its predecessor, and the new 5nm AI chip delivers imaging previously impossible in the GO family.
Despite its small size, the Insta360 GO Ultra can capture cinematic, ultra-smooth, ultra-crisp 4K@60fps videos, which was impossible with pocket action cameras before.
At just 53g and the size of a matchbox (46 × 45.7 × 18.3 mm), the built-in magnetic base lets you mount the GO Ultra camera anywhere, capturing angles other cameras can only dream of. Powered by a 500mAh battery, it records up to 70 minutes of video.
Unlike GO 3S, which has fixed internal storage, GO Ultra uses removable microSD cards. This instantly gives you up to 2TB of storage space, and when the card gets full, you can pop it out and replace it with a new one in seconds. Say farewell to awkward file transfers.
GO Ultra’s blend of heavyweight power, lightweight portability, and ease of use makes it essential for vloggers with active lifestyles, families sharing milestones, or travelers searching for new horizons—people who live in the moment.
GO Hands-Free
Capture the moment as you live it with GO Ultra. Attach the Standalone Camera to the Magnet Pendant or Magnetic Easy Clip to record your POV totally hands-free. This is wearable tech that’s sleek and simple to use.
The Standalone Camera’s built-in magnetic base can be used on any metallic surface and combined with the Pivot Mount, Flexi Strap Mount, and more, opening a whole new range of creative third-person angles.
GO Ultra uses Bluetooth to broadcast from the Standalone Camera to the Action Pod in real time. Give it to your little ones to play with and see the world as they do on the 2.5″ flip touchscreen.
GO Wherever You Want
GO Ultra is so compact that it can be put in a pocket, kept in a handbag, or added to hand luggage without tipping the scales. As mentioned, the Standalone Camera weighs just 53g and is as small as an Oreo. The charging case has a foldable live-view screen and provides a more intuitive control over the camera.
But don’t let the size fool you, GO Ultra is designed to be used anywhere. From your baby’s birthday bash to getting strapped to the front of a BMX for a gnarly downhill, it can handle anything, even a raw dive down to 33ft (10m) underwater, thanks to its IPX8 waterproofing. Shoot up in the mountains, city, and deep under the waves all day.
Upload, Edit, and GO
You hit that PR, cut the cake, saw the sunset—now it’s time to share it with the world. Using the free Insta360 app (available on iOS and Android), you can upload your clips in seconds and edit however you want with intuitive controls. Need it now? Use Auto Edit to automatically find your highlights and turn them into a masterpiece in moments.
