Both webcams also come with a new magnetic mount making them easier to attach to some surfaces, and are much cheaper than the original Insta360 Link, which debuted at $299.99 in 2022.

The original Insta360 Link entered the world fully formed. $299 price tag aside, I had no major complaints about the webcam in my 2022 review. Two years later, the Shenzhen-based consumer optics company has debuted its successor — two of them, in fact.

Though the listed equivalent resolution of the Link 2 seems lower, that’s only because Insta360 themselves don’t have a listed still resolution. What’s more, the 50MP that the Tiny 2 boasts is similarly AI-enhanced, so these are both what scientists would call “guesstimates”.

When we reviewed the Insta360 Link ($299), we called it the most innovative webcam. If you were eyeing up that cam but wished it was smaller so you could travel with it, your prayers have just been answered. Meet the Link 2C, a 4K webcam that's hugely clever and slightly cheaper than the first-gen model.

Insta360 responded last year with its Link webcam, which offered 4K resolution and AI tracking capabilities. This year, it has updated the range with the Link 2 and Link 2C, which use the latest advances in image processing and AI.

The Link 2 and Link 2C are completely redesigned from the Link and come with some extra smarts.

Insta360 launches Link 2 and Link 2C webcams, delivering 4K AI-powered video and advanced noise reduction audio technology.
