I find it very suspect that none of the major influencers are comparing the X4 to the 1-inch. I do not think Insta360 wants that comparison to happen. This camera seems to be marketed using the 8K resolution it has and not the fact that it's the exact same sensor in the X3. I bought the X4 and have the 1-inch and I can say without a doubt that I am keeping my 1-inch and returning the X4. The 1-inch is so much better. If any of you are semi knowledgable about cameras, you know the most import aspect of a camera is its image sensor capability. Light gathering is everything. I will wait for the 8k 1-inch to come out. That will add even more detail to the 1-inch and trust me, it's not missing a ton. The X4 is only necessary if you need a waterproof camera without using additional accessories or want something a bit lighter, but if you own the 1-inch, I say save your money.
Interesting thx... I like all the "hype" derived from the launch of the X4, and I "consume" much content about it... because I like it 😉. But to some extent I had a suspicion that this X4 is not such a huge tech leap. In this context, your comment definitely helps me understand it better and consolidate my point. Btw, is it possible to export videos with the 1-inch in a resolution higher that 1080p? Because for instance, with the X3, OK i can shoot a video in 360º at 5.7 K, but the maximum resolution I can get when exporting that video is 1080.
Some people need water resistance so x series better. I have x3, till now I habe not used in water, but maybe one day will be needed, and last year my budget didn't allow to get 1 inch, but soon I hope I will get 1 inch to have with my x3. And if longer water videos will be needed then need to get x4, unless 1 inch will become waterproof
Yes, it is probably the best thing from Insta360. 8K is a powerful upgrade, but it's in 360. And then resolution won't be more than 2.7K in 360. But it's a cool camera, would have liked to test it.
Awesome examples of using the X4 for some creative shots :) I guess my X4 review copy got lost in the mail or something, haven’t heard anything from the post office about a package ready for pickup …
i just bought one for an upcoming motorcycle trip. havent even begun to understand all of it. i got the part down for taking video and pics so the important part is done. the editing part is another story, ill have to work on that part.
Please tell me, is it worth buying insta360 X4 if I have Kandao QooCam 8K? What can you say when comparing 8k video from these cameras, is there a big difference in picture quality?
When you place the camera outside, the control is with the phone? if it is, can you still use the phone for anything else or does the insta app have to be visible on screen?
Anyone notice when he asked to subscribe at 6:04, the subscribe button lit up? This is so cool. I'm watching it on my laptop though, don't know if does the same on phone or not.
I been messing with this, and in normal rooms the 8k even downsized to 1080 is pixeled as hell. This camera needs some well-lit environments to perform very good. Which is fine with me, I'm just understanding this is damn near a daytime outside kind of camera unless you put the work in to make it look nice in a dim setting or regular lit environment.
GoPro are trash with their overheating. I was going for an DJi Action4…… Then this beast comes along and steals the show. Definitely getting the Insta360 X4 as my 1st action camera.
I got Insta 360 RS one and atleast 6 Gopro's, yes you could get some stunning shots like a drone, Even on manual mode when re-framing, loses a lot of video quality, thats where the editing comes, my point is a 360 cameras need editing to look good, unlike other action cameras
I wouldn’t mind editing more if it meant having more flexibility with angles. You never know when something cool happens nearby but not in your GoPro’s camera view. That’s where 360 comes in. But hey to each their own right 🤙🏻
8K is the at least for 360 vids. I feel like I got 720p or 560p footage with the 5,7K res if I zoom in. I wasn't able to use the 360 on this reason for professionell footage. I really hate it, how I loss quality in order to get normal-camera-like perspective with it. It's horrible! I even prefer to see more in the future. More res is much more fun and flexibility, especitally if your record is a full sphere. That's been an essential update IMAO to keep up slowly with the time and expectations. I been bored that they just updated the housing and the image input but not this important perspective. I don't need on my phone the 100 MP feature. But I do need to zoom in as hell in order to have a look of "normal camera used and not the sphere one".
What are you expecting for 500 pound? (499.00) I’ll give you an example of another 360 camera insta does, Insta360 Titan - 11K sold as a pro ,It’s nice, especially with dark but we enjoy the x3 more , so for just a bit more the x4 can only be better.? We’ll know in a couple of days. But I wouldn’t dis it yet.
Titan is overpriced without question marks. Uses many SD cards, this is an old technology. I wasn't impressed enough with it neither. I didn't care about the 500-ish price tag. There is a sweet spot between 500 and stellar pricing. I was imagining an X4 Like device for about 800 or 900 as an alternative. But in the past, in 2024. In 2024 I want more resolution than this. But I still have to say finally. At least this X4 ist Out with 8K. Soon or later but we will meet my expectations. Few years ago when Mini 1 and 2 was developed, I wished for an 4K Drone with full 360 obstacle avoidance. The Mini 4 is here and I do own it. Wasn't my dream to pay that price for it, but still worth it and I do it, when needed. But I feel Titan a weak try and I wrote already why.
Angles are great but the reframing is always sooo much work and if we are all honest, the image just sucks! Even for an action cam :). I think for regular people a phone is the better option 99% of the time
Why aren’t my images being saved to my iPhone album in 360 images format after I chose export as 360 from insta360 app? It’s just flat images doesn’t save with that 360 symbol and FB doesn’t support 360 images no more ?
I have the Insta360 x3 and the quality is not good. I don't want to pay 499 and it doesn't work due to the quality. But if Instan sends me a free one, I'll accept it. Free
hmm this is not one of your best edits... it looks like it was done by an amateur trying to copy your style. that transition from closing the door to the rin spinning 🤨lol nope.
What is the % of people that actually use or have 8k monitors or tvs.... Shit there aren't very many machines that can handle editing 8k in any decent way ..... What is the point of having 8k if nobody can actually see it... 4k tv's have just become cheap enough for the majority of consumers to have a couple in their homes... How much is an 8k tv now? like 6k bucks and up? smh

Still want to pour some concrete w one of u amazing RU-vidrs basically just to learn, big inspiration bro, I have made it this far all from capcut and phones & tablets. I had a insta 360 x2 but cracked the lenz so this cam is very impressive, tried to buy the 3 and they sent me the 2 , so I sent it back . Now they got the 4, if I buy I will use yur link 4 sure. Btw I love the motorcycle grip
I swear I almost forgot your name, I kept writing Daniel Fisher. Great action camera. Just unboxed mine & immediately made a tutorial. Nothing on the market can touch it.
Nice video as always Daniel ! Insta always do great work especially in this X4 I love all the Quick system like protection lens quick transfer to a stick or a clamp . 8K for better quality on 360 video ? My pc is ready to burn 😀😀
