Insta360 has launched a new product called Snap, a USB-C selfie screen. This small device offers a simple way to upgrade selfie and vlogging quality. It connects easily via USB-C and sits on the back of your phone. The 3.5-inch touchscreen lets users adjust settings like zoom and focus. This makes framing shots easier before capturing pictures or videos.
Unlike many wireless screens on the market, Insta360 says Snap provides a more stable, low-latency feed thanks to its wired connection. The device is only 6.8mm thick, making it slightly thinner than an iPhone 17. It attaches magnetically to MagSafe-compatible iPhones, with a ring included for other phones. Plus, it supports Android phones with DisplayPort Alt Mode for screen mirroring.
The Snap is priced at $79.99, with an upgraded version that includes a built-in light costing $89.99. The light features multiple color temperatures and brightness levels, adding more flexibility for creators.
Advanced smartphones, such as the iPhone 17 and Galaxy S25, now have rear cameras that vastly outperform front cameras in resolution. This shift makes devices like Snap increasingly appealing. Content creators and social media users benefit from tools that make high-quality visuals easier to produce.
Implementing devices like Snap could also inspire smarter city features. As urban areas grow more connected, tools that improve multimedia sharing support active communities, local content, and digital engagement. Ultimately, products like Snap help make smartphone content creation more accessible and professional.
