The Max 2 will be the successor to the GoPro Max and is rumoured to be released in 2025. It will be GoPro's third attempt at a 360 camera and it will have to deliver impressive performance to compete with the current 360 camera leader, the Insta360 X4.

It has now been replaced by the more capable Insta360 Go 3S, which now offers up to 4K video while retaining the same small size.

Why size and weight matter: Weight is important for action cameras because we often mount them on helmets, or hold them at the end of a selfie stick while moving. Therefore a heavier camera can be dvifficult to use or uncomfortable. Weight is even more crucial for certain sports like road cycling or running.

Neither camera has a removable battery.

Why battery life matters: Nothing worse than running out of battery just before capturing the best footage of the day! A long battery life is reassuring and convenient when shooting footage outdoors where options to charge are limited. Even the use of a power bank can be tedious or simply impossible like when filming watersports. Having removeable batteries allows battery swapping on the go which further extends your runtime.

Storage

Only the Go 3 features built-in storage. Neither camera supports SD cards and therefore are limited to their built-in storage.

Why storage matters: High quality footage can quickly take up lots of space and insufficient storage can soon be frustrating. Having a large amount of storage and the possiblity to extend it or swap SD cards while on a outing will ensure you will always be able to capture the footage you want. However, smaller, wearable action cameras often rely on built-in storage because of their small size.

Video performance

Neither camera offers HDR video.
