I brought my Family to Niagara Falls Canada Side 2 weeks ago (End of August 2022). And I almost bought the Insta320 X2 but decided not to because I still have my trusty gopro hero3. Now looking at this X3 I will definitely be getting it for our Next trip to Ottawa in October! Thanks for sharing this review this camera is really worth it specially with the Action Cam mode when you don't need to film in 360.
I just watched all your videos reviewing the Insta360 cameras and I really like how you explain the details and give examples of the cameras at work. Well done and you've convinced me that for my purposes I should go with the 360 vs a gopro11! Thank you. You've earned a new subscriber!
Great first look at the new X3, I like the new simple name. There is a lot to unpack here, right up front I love the new screen. And the improved action mode could make it more useful. And good see the price didn't go up much over the previous mode. I look forward to seeing more videos on this new 360 camera on your channel. Thanks for sharing.
This thing looks pretty interesting! Would be interested in an overheating comparison with other cameras as the in camera stabilization may limit its performance. Thanks!
Very nice review, fantastic job. I need to think about this a bit more however my initial impression with the camera is disappointment. They've done some upgrading of what for me are secondary features while not really upgrading the primary thing I use 99.9% of the time, the video quality. In looking through the detailed specs the larger battery amounts to an extra minute of run time in video mode, H.265 mode is no longer supported and the weight of the camera is about 15% heavier (important when it's sitting on a helmet mount in a whitewater canoe). I am glad they kept the waterproof feature and I need to see what difference the Video HDR really makes. Low light video performance could also be the difference with the new sensor although I will need to see. Hopefully you could do a small low light review. Thanks for the video!
I dig the way your talk about this camera in a very practical way. How to film, how to edit and what this experience might be like for a new potential buyer.
1) Is it still noisy even at iso 100 just like X2? 2) Timelapse mode at what fps? Can we use it for google streetview? 3) No built in gps, right? 4) Thanks!
Very informative review 😎👍. It seems like Insta360 has their engineers working overtime. They dropped the RS 1” in June I believe and now this. The X3 looks great for someone like me that has never had a 360 camera 🤔. You did a great job of explaining the features. Thanks for sharing 🙏🙏🙏
Great looking camera with loads of new features, however I think I will wait for the Insta360 X3 RS 1 inch. That will likely come and be worth the wait in my opinion...
Great new camera, but now the one x2 batteries dont fit anymore as well as the external microphone adapter. So now you have to purchase all new accessoires.
while it’s much more advanced than the earlier models, how far have they come in the design from much much thinner and lighter body… to a thicker and heavier unit. they traded out some of that lightweight, sleek pocket-ability appeal and towards the direction of something like a gopro 360.
Not durable one drop and it will hit lens first and you can't use lens protectors because it messes up the video also, terrible light flare and impossible to use a lens hood like a normal camera without seeing it.
I love your videos. They have helped me more than you could imagine. I do need your opinion now. I use 2 Osmo Action cameras as dashcams. 1 pointed out and 1 pointed inside our vehicle. I also use the Hohem Isteady Pro 3 gimble due to not having a steady hand. I'm looking at buying either a Pocket 2 with pgytech holder or an Insta360 X3 to use for vlogging. I can't stand the fisheye look at all. Which setup would you suggest and why? I will be attaching my 10k MaH battery grip to the one I decide to buy. Thanks for your help.
That’s a tough decision. If it’s a camera you’re that’s going to be mounted The pocket doesn’t always perform well in those situations and something like the x-ray might be better. However depending on how you export footage from the X.3 there can be some distortion if you’re trying to get a really wide fov. I guess what you could always do is order one try it out for a few days to see if it meets your needs and if not then send it back.
Is the stabilisation as good as the GoPro 9 and 10. And is the sound good. I was going to get a go pro 10 but now I’m wondering if this is a better choice. Great video thank you.
Seeing how fast these companies are innovating compared to GoPro. Makes me concerned for GoPro's future. GoPro seems to be launching the same product repackaged in different form factors while being plagued with quality control and reliability issues.
Watched a bunch of your videos esp on the DJI Action 4. 1:49 Especially, where your head turns into the sun - the movement looks so unnatural. '360 look' is cartoonish - time to breakout the green screen and add yourself into the movie 300 - Look I'm about to enter the battle and I'm not even nervous.

Good first look video Shaw
I like some of those features, great job, i might have to retire my one x

Thank you very much
Good demonstration is possible to use Bluetooth Remote Controller with the camera
Yes, I believe so
What a versatile camera! Great introduction Shawn!
Very nice review, thank you.
Thank you
I’m looking forward to your upcoming videos on this bad boy
Great presentaion- everything was explained in good detail.
Thank you for another great review. Are the batteries and charger different than the previous generation ? Thanks Zvi
Video image quality has a lot to be desired. Maybe it will improve in a few years. I was considering buying one until I saw the video. Thanks.
Or just compare it to cell phone video from 2010.
Excellent review. Looking forward to your videos using this camera. I love the touchscreen. Thanks for sharing!
Looks vary interesting.
It sounds like a winner. Still using an old Hero3. I’m really in the dark ages! Thanks again for the Insta360 Review.
Thank you for watching and supporting my channel

Great new camera, but now the one x2 batteries dont fit anymore as well as the external microphone adapter. So now you have to purchase all new accessoires.
This camera is pretty cool. What program is best to edit with? Am I able to use IMovie to edit?
Brilliant camera and software, but I’ll stick with my X2 for now…
Very cool review The footage looks really good
while it’s much more advanced than the earlier models, how far have they come in the design from much much thinner and lighter body… to a thicker and heavier unit. they traded out some of that lightweight, sleek pocket-ability appeal and towards the direction of something like a gopro 360.
Is there a webcam mode like in the x2?
Can you talk about slow mo in another video? Thanks for this one, I’m excited for this camera
How delicate are the lenses? Can it be used like an action camera as far as being rough? Will the software work with any other cameras?
Not durable one drop and it will hit lens first and you can't use lens protectors because it messes up the video also, terrible light flare and impossible to use a lens hood like a normal camera without seeing it.
What tablet are u using to edit your footage?
My only one question is, does it work with the Google Street View app for taking pictures?
What's the data rate and how does that affect image performance vs the gopro Max?

Do you like the X3 more than the 1" 360 that was release a month or so ago?
Does the pc app has subscription or is it free to download and use?
It is free to use no subscription required
looks good! 👍🏻
Big question, for general filming purposes use, which would you recommend the X3 or RS 1-inch 360.
Or the DJI Action 4.
Is the stabilisation as good as the GoPro 9 and 10. And is the sound good. I was going to get a go pro 10 but now I’m wondering if this is a better choice. Great video thank you.
Have you watched David Manning's review?
@@marydavis57 No, ill check it out now. Thanks
Can you control the camera from a phone? Great video.
Yes
$ ?
What kind of bike is that?
That one is the Himiway escape
Cool. 😎
you sound like vacuum wars a little bit

for GP it's over. They have been milking a shrinking customer base for years.

More of the same really, but they are persisting with it.
