This is why I prefer Pocket 2 over Pocket 3

:Discussion: Discussion

Hello everyone. With no doubt, Pocket 2 is way better than the original Pocket 1. However, is Pocket 3 better than Pocket 2? It depends on your preferences and on your needs. Here's why I prefer Pocket 2 over Pocket 3:

• Less noticeable (main reason)

I make walking videos, exploring towns and cities, including shopping malls, train stations, suburbs, cities, commercial streets, residential streets, parks, dangerous neighborhoods, safe neighborhoods, ect. I always hold the camera in a disguised way so less people notice that am recording. I have seen in some rare ocassions in other people's videos people harassing content creators telling them to not film, and some of those people are dangerous people. I remember in one occasion there was one person told the YouTuber: "are you filming!? Hey, turn off that camera or am going to..." and proceeded to threaten him. Other occasions, just mentally unstable people screaming telling to not film. And this is why the less noticeable the camera is the better (if you use the camera to film in public places). That much bigger screen that has Pocket 3 don't help; it makes it more noticeable. (Of course, people can also notice that you are recording with a Pocket 2, but the chances increases when you use a Pocket 3, and another factor is how you hold the camera).

• Size

You can fit the Pocket 2 in your pocket more easy than the bulky Pocket 3.
