Insta360 Snap Selfie Screen magnetic monitor announced

Insta360 has introduced the Snap Selfie Screen series, a compact magnetic monitor designed to enable real-time preview while using a smartphone’s rear camera for selfies and vlogging. The lineup includes two models — the Snap Selfie Screen and the Snap Selfie Screen with Light, which adds adjustable brightness and color lighting for different shooting conditions.

Insta360 Snap

Insta360 Snap is designed for creators, vloggers, and everyday users to capture selfies and videos using the rear camera. It magnetically attaches to the back of a smartphone and provides a mirrored preview, allowing users to frame shots accurately without repeated adjustments.

It features a compact, pocket-friendly design with a magnetic snap-on mechanism for quick and secure attachment. The device uses a USB-C wired connection for plug-and-play functionality and does not require an internal battery, as it is powered directly through the connection.

It supports native camera apps as well as third-party camera and editing apps. The Snap Selfie Screen with Light variant adds adjustable brightness and color lighting, with the lighting system developed in collaboration with AMIRO.
