Insta360 has launched the Flow 2, a new smartphone gimbal designed to provide accessible stabilization and intelligent tracking features. Priced at $109.99, the Flow 2 offers a compelling blend of performance and affordability. The device boasts a 10-hour battery life and can even charge your phone while in use. Key upgrades from previous models include multi-person tracking capabilities and Apple Watch remote control functionality.

While it forgoes some advanced features found in the Pro version, such as support for alternate camera apps and full 360-degree panning, the Flow 2 retains essential functionalities like a built-in extending selfie stick and integrated tripod legs. Its 1,100mAh battery delivers up to 10 hours of operation, though continuous stabilization in handheld mode may reduce usage time.

The Flow 2 utilizes NFC for seamless Bluetooth connection and automatically launches the Insta360 app, which features Deep Track 4.0 AI-powered technology. This allows the gimbal to maintain focus on individual subjects or groups, even when briefly obscured. A new integrated teleprompter within the app automatically scrolls scripts while recording, ensuring smooth and professional-looking video content.
