Gopro is by far better, the dynamic range and colours make the diffference. The One r and X washed out colours are unacceptable . Even 50 years ago at my mother s wedding pictures looked better than those in One X and R.
I think I've finally found the camera that I'll pull the trigger on. I'm also still rocking a Hero 3. So the One R will be the best option for me when it comes to getting into 360 as well as upgrading my action cam.
Thanks Ben for all this info. It’s so helpful and we haven’t pulled a trigger for our camera of choice for our attempted Thru-hike of the Colorado Trail this summer but we have some time and we can expect some new models before July. Thank you so much for helping us get into 360 video! I am excited to capture this experience with my pups this way and a lot of not all is with your help. Thank you again
I tend to like the look of the output of the Max in all the reviews. Looks richer and more appealing. One R looks often washed out but not always. One R has a ton of advantages, Max has easier form factor and better screen. I think I’m veering to One R though, but hoping there’s a “look” I can easily apply in editing in the app to bring it a bit closer to the look of the Max. I think that should be easily done.
The "washed out" look is preferred by people who edit because it's more flexible. Much easier to bring out detail in the bright and dark areas because they aren't blown out or too dark. But like Ben said...preferences.
spot on mate, go pros have always been for non-pros and the general masses with their out of the box settings. I always tell people they are basically made to shoot perfect footage high noon at the beach on the equator!
4:10 the one r looks more washed out than the x or max. even though the sun is behind you, all 3 are doing ok for what it is. much blacker blacks and whiter whites on the max with crazy blues as well. if i was at best buy looking at three tv's showing these three shots i would all day buy the one on the right. lol slow mo is gonna be better on the x and R. a shame the max does not do at least 60 fps in 360 mode. 5:50 the R looks better. thanks for these side by sides. i wish the one R was an all in one unit that had a hero mode instead of modular. maybe the next one will.
Ben - thanks again for a great review. I finally bit the bullet and purchased my first 360. I got both the One R and the GoPro Max. I will forever stick with GoPro. I bought both to test, and the One R photos are out of focus as compared to the GoPro. When trying to return the One R, customer service took over a week to respond between each communication. And even though they confirmed the difference, they refused to take the product back (GoPro photos are much sharper with better color choices). The return policy I accepted did not say anything about the inability to return an activated camera, but Insta360 will not take my camera back because it's been activated (even after they confirmed that it is a sub-par product). I'm also not a fan of the Insta360 workflow of exporting from their proprietary format to JPG (I think it loses quality), I don't like all of the advertising inside of the Insta360 app, and I think the plastic it's made out of feels cheap. It will be interesting to see how it holds up (unless they finally let me return it), but the GoPro feels better and more rugged. Thanks again for a quality review. I wanted to keep everyone updated on the issues I ran into to ensure they are aware of the comparisons, and the issues they might run into.
Lucky you in that beautiful snow. So much nicer than a Sydney winter :) i love being in northern parts of the US and in Canada for the snow. I like the Max for low light, audio, and power pano, the X for small size and hyperlapse. The X is the 360 equivalent of a GoPro Session 5. The video might not be perfect, but its small size gets some really unique shots going into tiny holes.
Thanks for the comparisons... I have just taken delivery of an Insta360 One X2 here in Thailand. I am very impressed and hooked NOW... Capturing and publishing lots of Songkhran (Thai New Year) stuff on RUclips.... Which accessories was a issue, but I worked it out and created a video to help others.
I'm looking for a 360 action camera. I film 4wd and motorcycle adventure videos where I'm planning to put the camera on the side of the car and bike. Which camera do you recommend. The camera may cop a hiding especially in the side of my 4wd. I edit with Filmora 9 Pro. Cheers Jim
though i'm still checking the other videos, i'd like to see what that ice rink would have looked like in -1 or -2 EV. i also want to know how i can use this as a super wide photo maker. can i shoot a room, like a room and there is a desk i want to get but couldn't get in there with my big camera. could i use this camera instead, and then some how straighten it? that's one of the bonus functions i'd like to see.
Have you updated your One R’s firmware to the latest? I just want to warn you that if you do get the new firmware, it has eliminated the Quick Capture feature. After contacting tech support from Insta360 they confirmed that this feature is no longer available and they have no explanation why they got rid of it. Also they do not plan to add it back.
Hi Ben, why did you not use the GoPro in Protune? The much flatter image will show GoPro in its true potential!
5 лет назад
Hi Ben!.. I wanna buy the R but what about stitching?.. is the X better for that?... I mean, the R seems more versatile so I can use it like action camera or just video camera with 4K lens but also to make virtual tours for real estate ( in this case stitching is very important).. Thanks for your comments.
Great video, thanks. I expected the 360 video difference between X and R to be higher thanks to the higher bitrate of the R, but it's not, 360 video is identical? 🙄
My wife and I are professional photographers looking at offering virtual tours in our services. We are debating between the One X and the Z1. I am having a hard time finding a place to rent these two to compare. Any ideas as to where I could rent in the USA?
Sweet review! Makes me excited for my one r to come in. I really look forward to the one r low light stability test. Not ideal that you have to change the setting but a small trade off for all the other advantages.
In the future, I hope you will be able to compare to those three in a traffic environment. I found the OneR 360 records the license plate number as a blurry mess even at the highest resolution of 5.7K / 30fps.
I am a landscape photographer and the color from the Max is just gorgeous and looks way way better than One X and one R.. In the shot you consider "too high contrast", you simply should increase the exposure to get more details in high light.
Deciding on my next 360. Thanks for this video. Looking at the R. Does it have any live video? Would like to use it for my RUclips channel but sitting in the Tesla so viewers can move around as they wish.
Ben Claremont but I guess I also need to hit the 1000subs and 4k watch lol so they can take their time I guess haha. Thanks Ben loving your channel appreciate your reviews.
@@BenClaremont Really? That's a shame. I was hoping you had filmed with the GoPro colour setting so that if I filmed in the Flat colour setting, there would be more dynamic range available. Thanks for coming back to me.
Your videos with the one r came out very clear and nice, I have been looking at other videos samples on RUclips and the quality is bad and blurry...Did you upload from sd card to computer or did you use the mobile app? I want to know if the app's compression is causing the other videos to look bad
Hey Ben, why don't you guys do more of qoocam 8k review. I feel like it hasn't gotten the real review yet. How tos, tips and tricks, features, is it that bad. Real life test
The reason is the workflow has not been fully ready and I couldn’t even stitch my content until just recently. I’ll be posting 3 videos about it in the coming weeks :)
One R is drawing me in myself. I have the One X, but no normal action cam. I think the modularity of the One R would give me both rather than me buying a standard Go Pro to pair with my One X.
stunts the low light quality is going to be the test that ultimately makes my decision. And I agree, the modularity means I carry one camera with a couple mods/batteries rather than multiple cameras and different types of batteries.
I bought my Gopro Max about a month ago, so far happy about the quality of the videos. But the app to reframe had been a pain since there's no long press to track object or any other insta360 mobile app functionalities. Hope gopro could look into that and at least try to catch up on the app side. Again great video and amazing comparison!
Hey, Ben. Great job creating your videos using 360 cameras. I love both your reviews and also how you compare features among cameras. I love my Insta360 One X . I like how it stitches the footage more than the One R. However, I would love a waterproof camera, plus the better audio. Please feel free to take a look into my work if you fancy. I try to mix my work as an artist and the way I see light doing photography. Cheers!
spatial audio on the max is atm a no go on windows, due a isue with the exporter, and ya, software for android still is shoit, and u need a high phone, while a iphone 6 what has the A9 works (not yet tested,so cant confirm if the realtime view is smooth)
Something I've noticed after watching a few different comparison videos from multiple channels. All of these cameras are all very good. I think this is a very good place to be in when not one company sits a lot higher than any other. There are some specific cases but overall I like all of them. I'm planning on saving up for a OneR btw. I'm hoping the modular feature is going it be really useful in the future. I'm planning on mounting one on my motorcycle on the front fairing.
FUN !! With the 4 K ...I am wondering how long does it take to upload to RUclips ? So this video was 6.09 minutes. how long did it take to upload it. Did you upload at 4K My desktop says I am watching it in 1080p HD When I watch on my big TV I have no idea what that quality is. I have o idea what quality my iPad is or my iphone either.
Does the output of the GoPro Fusion still hold up to the competition? The main thing holding it back before was how long it took to process its files but with computers and laptops getting more powerful, would it be more feasible now?
Yet another in a long line of great reviews! Thank you Ben! This may be where my budget begins to fall behind your recommendations. The One X is still a bit out of my price range, so I'm not going to be able to reach the One R or GoPro Max. But your reviews are helping me to stay informed on which camera would work best for the type of filming I want to do. So thank you for all your hard work!
Thanks a lot for the video! This answers many of my questions :) There is only one more thing I was wondering as I mostly do reframed videos. How does the One R work within Premiere for editing? Can you use the GoPro plugin to reframe the shots? Thank you!
Great review! I'm looking to get the a 360 camera for mostly snowboarding. Would the higher contrast of the Max be better for shooting in the snow? I was leaning towards the Insta 360r so I could have two cameras in one and a better app to edit with.
Hi I started watching your videos to help me decide before buying my One R. Can you, maybe help me with a recent issue? Only after my first two 360 recordings did the playback start lagging. I have been playing around with different settings, but I don't know how to reset the camera? Would you have any suggestions in general or know how to factory reset? Thanks Daniel
I have just ordered the Insta360 one R. thanks for your review you have convinced me even more. I hope I get it within 15 days as their website says. can't wait to make great videos with it. Thanks
It seems like they are super behind on orders . A guy comenting on here said he ordered his on the 7th and they still havent shipped his out yet. I ordered mine on the 17 and it still hasnt been shipped
One-r all the way for me, its an absolute game changer! they also dont take the piss when it comes to accessories pricing the way gopro do, you can get the external mic input for instance for $10 - imagine that from gopro? it would be at LEAST $50! All i am looking out for with the one-r is i want a larger battery option available with "normal" mounts on the bottom of it like the gopro max has that tuck away, other than that - im totally sold! You forgot to mention the one-r dji mavic addition they are coming out with what allows you to strap it to a mavic and get footage from the drone!
Hey Ben, I wanted to ask if the insta cameras had night mode. I bought the GoPro Max and though the website says it does support night mode, I haven’t been able to figure out how to do it. Have you and if so, could you tell me how?
It's too bad that you only reviewed them as reframe cameras and not 360° cameras - while I do agree with most of your findings, if it's 360° you're after, then the ONE R and MAX are clearly inferior designs when it comes to parallax and will produce some disturbing images with subjects near the stitch line. Also, were you using the same app between the ONE X and the ONE R or were you using the older app for the ONE X?
My Insta 360 one R is having heating issue It starts heating just after 5 minutes of recording that's really annoying and maybe risky too Idk whatever I was thinking of returning it and buying go pro max Can you tell go pro Max has heating problem too
Well you were in our neck of the woods reviewing the camera I am looking at. Wish I had know we could have taken you fishing and tested it inside our SnoBear.
Hi Ben, thanks for the video. I’m an amateur photographer and this is gonna be my first action camera. The main use is snowboarding shooting both 360 and “hero mode”. Some family vacations, mostly outside, mostly during the day. I’m looking for KISS camera to set ones and have fun with. I probably edit with my IPhone during the flight back home although I got the Pr too. Which one will you recommend for that use?
You will not regret getting the GoPro MAX. It has incredible stabilization (especially in HERO mode), as fantastic image quality, and the best audio. Most importantly, it's just fun and easy to use. it has easily replaced all my other cameras and I've captured so many amazing family memories with it, I can't recommend it enough.
I did click in the link to buy the One X camera but it said Out-stock Do you know if they are coming with a new model or something? man I wanted to buy this camera ;( I want to start doing my 3D virtual tour. Thanks for sharing these videos
I have the One X. Will I get the One R? Probably not only because they are near identical at this time. I like the low profile of the X and the all-weather batteries do help a lot. I am not convinced the X or R are really full on action cams like the Max. Consumer grade 360 cams, yes. I mainly use my phone as my video screen when I record with the X so dim screen is ok in low light. I will wait until another consumer cam makes a debut and then consider putting my X to ZZZZZZ.
Hi Ben! When do you plan to do a video on the 1-inch mod? Love the video reviews so far--trying to decide which one to buy for my upcoming trip to Japan for a first-time vlog. :D Not sure if I would benefit more on the 1-inch or the twin so I'm going to wait for your review first.
Hi Ben, I'm hesitating between Insta one R and de Gopro Max. It's mostly for extrême sports and family use. I'm want to know which has the most easiest and fastest program for editing (smartphone + desktop) . I'll only use the program of the brand or Imovie, nothing else. Thanks in advance!
Which camera will Sammy give his seal of approval? 🦦
Looked like he was just a fan of the fisheye lenses you were using!
I sea what you did there. ;O)
Gopro is by far better, the dynamic range and colours make the diffference. The One r and X washed out colours are unacceptable . Even 50 years ago at my mother s wedding pictures looked better than those in One X and R.
@@nikolaosgkougkoulias449 can you export a 360 picture for your phone or computer with the GoPro max, unedited? 🤔🤔🤔🙄🙄🙄
@@TiagoWolf of course you can do that using the gopro max app. Easy. Once all transferred to ur phone, you can then transfer them to PC.
I dont know why, but I totally enjoyed his clear practical style of review. And I found myself smiling too, watching Ben running through the snow.
I think I've finally found the camera that I'll pull the trigger on. I'm also still rocking a Hero 3. So the One R will be the best option for me when it comes to getting into 360 as well as upgrading my action cam.
Good comparison Ben. The real difference between the One R and Max seems to mostly be about personal preferences and the intended use of the camera.
Wow! Super ultra detailed review. Keep up the awesome work.
Ben I picked up the one R a few weeks ago and I love it. Thanks for all the vids it helps a lot when deciding. You ROCK.
Thanks Ben for all this info. It’s so helpful and we haven’t pulled a trigger for our camera of choice for our attempted Thru-hike of the Colorado Trail this summer but we have some time and we can expect some new models before July.

What camera/lens are you using to show off the cameras? Looks great.
spot on mate, go pros have always been for non-pros and the general masses with their out of the box settings. I always tell people they are basically made to shoot perfect footage high noon at the beach on the equator!
Hahaha, the specificness is on point.
Your videos are great, and you seriously opened my eyes to a whole new perspective of photography! Keep it up dude!
Thanks Brian, will do!
@@BenClaremont Halfway through your VirtualTour Pro courses... blown away! Looking forward to expanding my 360 gear collection in the coming months!
Haha nice- happy shopping!
Do u recommend to still get the One R or is it worth waiting for an upcoming gopro model ??
Still recommend One R
Thanks Ben 👍🏻
I own the OneX and to be honest I'm hoping they release an updated version at some point as I prefer the form factor to the OneR.
Did they release something?
I have one x and gopro hero 8
There is no reason to upgrade
Maybe in the future
4:10 the one r looks more washed out than the x or max. even though the sun is behind you, all 3 are doing ok for what it is. much blacker blacks and whiter whites on the max with crazy blues as well.
if i was at best buy looking at three tv's showing these three shots i would all day buy the one on the right. lol
slow mo is gonna be better on the x and R. a shame the max does not do at least 60 fps in 360 mode.
5:50 the R looks better.
thanks for these side by sides.
i wish the one R was an all in one unit that had a hero mode instead of modular. maybe the next one will.
👍👍👍
Sean Ozz reframe the 360 footage, and there’s your hero mode?
Yeah, the Max with the specs from the One R, with the software app from the One R.
Ben - thanks again for a great review. I finally bit the bullet and purchased my first 360. I got both the One R and the GoPro Max. I will forever stick with GoPro. I bought both to test, and the One R photos are out of focus as compared to the GoPro. When trying to return the One R, customer service took over a week to respond between each communication. And even though they confirmed the difference, they refused to take the product back (GoPro photos are much sharper with better color choices). The return policy I accepted did not say anything about the inability to return an activated camera, but Insta360 will not take my camera back because it's been activated (even after they confirmed that it is a sub-par product). I'm also not a fan of the Insta360 workflow of exporting from their proprietary format to JPG (I think it loses quality), I don't like all of the advertising inside of the Insta360 app, and I think the plastic it's made out of feels cheap. It will be interesting to see how it holds up (unless they finally let me return it), but the GoPro feels better and more rugged.
Thanks again for a quality review. I wanted to keep everyone updated on the issues I ran into to ensure they are aware of the comparisons, and the issues they might run into.
Do you want to sell you flawed one r?
So , what is your recommendation for traveling use ,
Nice video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Lucky you in that beautiful snow. So much nicer than a Sydney winter :) i love being in northern parts of the US and in Canada for the snow.
I like the Max for low light, audio, and power pano, the X for small size and hyperlapse. The X is the 360 equivalent of a GoPro Session 5. The video might not be perfect, but its small size gets some really unique shots going into tiny holes.
Thanks for the comparisons...
I have just taken delivery of an Insta360 One X2 here in Thailand. I am very impressed and hooked NOW...
Capturing and publishing lots of Songkhran (Thai New Year) stuff on RUclips....
Which accessories was a issue, but I worked it out and created a video to help others.
I'm looking for a 360 action camera. I film 4wd and motorcycle adventure videos where I'm planning to put the camera on the side of the car and bike. Which camera do you recommend. The camera may cop a hiding especially in the side of my 4wd. I edit with Filmora 9 Pro. Cheers Jim
though i'm still checking the other videos, i'd like to see what that ice rink would have looked like in -1 or -2 EV. i also want to know how i can use this as a super wide photo maker. can i shoot a room, like a room and there is a desk i want to get but couldn't get in there with my big camera. could i use this camera instead, and then some how straighten it? that's one of the bonus functions i'd like to see.
Hello what is the Lowest Resolution can One R can record?
Have you updated your One R’s firmware to the latest? I just want to warn you that if you do get the new firmware, it has eliminated the Quick Capture feature. After contacting tech support from Insta360 they confirmed that this feature is no longer available and they have no explanation why they got rid of it. Also they do not plan to add it back.
Thank you for the advice, You made up my mind to buy the One R. This will be my 1st video cam ever, hope I can get the hang of it quickly.
Ben, can you please make a review of mobile apps and mobile only workflow for this action cameras, because some of them have very low rating apps!
Will try my best :)
Does GoPro max is good for virtual tour photo and virtual tour video?? Thanks in advance
Hi Ben, why did you not use the GoPro in Protune? The much flatter image will show GoPro in its true potential!

Yes X is better for stitching. See my other vids about One R for samples
are testing the lensguards for Max and One R as well?
Thank you for the comparison!

Not sure, but I’d say for sure you should get the Qoocam 8K as it has the best quality for virtual tours
It’s cool to see a video at my hometown! I’m planning on buying the one R for snowboarding on Black Friday. Thanks!
hela ! weeral bedankt voor deze beste analyse ! benieuwd naar uw volgende onderzoeken en experimenten. Top ! Heel erg bedankt !
Sweet review! Makes me excited for my one r to come in. I really look forward to the one r low light stability test. Not ideal that you have to change the setting but a small trade off for all the other advantages.
Thanks- yes agreed
Hi Ben, I'm currently using mi Mijia sphere for virtual tours. Now I'm planning to upgrade. which one you prefer for virtual tour, one x or one r?
Question can I connect a huge battery pack and record 6 to 8 hours straight with no interruptions or system blackouts/shutdowns?
This was informative and without a doubt the best review I've seen so far. Thanx
🍻
In the future, I hope you will be able to compare to those three in a traffic environment. I found the OneR 360 records the license plate number as a blurry mess even at the highest resolution of 5.7K / 30fps.

You can set the Max to shoot flat and you also can get ND filters that will improve outdoor shots.
Deciding on my next 360. Thanks for this video. Looking at the R. Does it have any live video? Would like to use it for my RUclips channel but sitting in the Tesla so viewers can move around as they wish.
Pretty sure they’ll add live streaming soon 👍
Ben Claremont but I guess I also need to hit the 1000subs and 4k watch lol so they can take their time I guess haha. Thanks Ben loving your channel appreciate your reviews.
Awesome! What would suggestion as the best real time stream cameras?
The Insta360 One R is a Beast WOW !!
OK, after this video I see that blackmagic quality is amazing :))
I ordered the Insta360 ONE R Aerial Edition - Mavic Pro. Any chance it’s gonna live up to the hype?
Don’t have it myself, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t
Is there any 360 camera where you can add on ND filters on them?
Not yet but i haven’t really seen a need to use one with 360 content as the shooting process is pretty different to cameras where you’d need one
Nice video 😎
Hi, what is the name of the monopod adapter on the GoPro Max?
great video man! happy birthday :) I'm going to get the One R. I have the other 2 as well. But I'm getting the 1inch version + the combo 360.
🍻👍
Another great video. Well done.
🍻
How is the One R for virtual tours? I like how versatile it is, but would want to use it for tours as well
Check out my recent virtual tour camera comparison :)
LOVE your videos! Great pacing, humour and presentation style as always!
Thanks!
Thx great video. My one r is still not shipped and now I wonder if corona virus issue in China will further delay it.
Hopefully not
Hi Ben, did you use the GoPro Max in Flat or GoPro mode?
Flat
@@BenClaremont Really? That's a shame. I was hoping you had filmed with the GoPro colour setting so that if I filmed in the Flat colour setting, there would be more dynamic range available. Thanks for coming back to me.

nice one Ben just confirmed my 360r buy with your video what is the selfie stick your useing ? or what do you reccommend ?

First comparison clip out the window I prefer the One X and R is preferable. I can't see details with the MAX.
spatial audio on the max is atm a no go on windows, due a isue with the exporter, and ya, software for android still is shoit, and u need a high phone, while a iphone 6 what has the A9 works (not yet tested,so cant confirm if the realtime view is smooth)
Excellent video. Glad RUclips put it in my feed. Liked, subscribed, and notified. Looking forward to checking out your other videos.
Something I've noticed after watching a few different comparison videos from multiple channels. All of these cameras are all very good. I think this is a very good place to be in when not one company sits a lot higher than any other. There are some specific cases but overall I like all of them.
I'm planning on saving up for a OneR btw. I'm hoping the modular feature is going it be really useful in the future. I'm planning on mounting one on my motorcycle on the front fairing.

Does the output of the GoPro Fusion still hold up to the competition? The main thing holding it back before was how long it took to process its files but with computers and laptops getting more powerful, would it be more feasible now?
To be honest the workflow is still clunky and it’s easier just using the Max
Yet another in a long line of great reviews! Thank you Ben! This may be where my budget begins to fall behind your recommendations. The One X is still a bit out of my price range, so I'm not going to be able to reach the One R or GoPro Max. But your reviews are helping me to stay informed on which camera would work best for the type of filming I want to do. So thank you for all your hard work!
Wow your video quality is amazing and i loved you were so clear explaining each camera, i am a nuw subscriber, keep going, your content is very cool!
Thanks a lot for the video! This answers many of my questions :) There is only one more thing I was wondering as I mostly do reframed videos. How does the One R work within Premiere for editing? Can you use the GoPro plugin to reframe the shots?
Thank you!
Yes you can :)
Great review! I'm looking to get the a 360 camera for mostly snowboarding. Would the higher contrast of the Max be better for shooting in the snow? I was leaning towards the Insta 360r so I could have two cameras in one and a better app to edit with.
Thanks! Honestly I think the One R and Max would both be awesome in the snow.
Hi
I started watching your videos to help me decide before buying my One R.
Can you, maybe help me with a recent issue? Only after my first two 360 recordings did the playback start lagging. I have been playing around with different settings, but I don't know how to reset the camera? Would you have any suggestions in general or know how to factory reset?
Thanks
Daniel
I have just ordered the Insta360 one R. thanks for your review you have convinced me even more. I hope I get it within 15 days as their website says. can't wait to make great videos with it. Thanks
It seems like they are super behind on orders . A guy comenting on here said he ordered his on the 7th and they still havent shipped his out yet. I ordered mine on the 17 and it still hasnt been shipped
One-r all the way for me, its an absolute game changer! they also dont take the piss when it comes to accessories pricing the way gopro do, you can get the external mic input for instance for $10 - imagine that from gopro? it would be at LEAST $50! All i am looking out for with the one-r is i want a larger battery option available with "normal" mounts on the bottom of it like the gopro max has that tuck away, other than that - im totally sold! You forgot to mention the one-r dji mavic addition they are coming out with what allows you to strap it to a mavic and get footage from the drone!
Hey Ben, I wanted to ask if the insta cameras had night mode. I bought the GoPro Max and though the website says it does support night mode, I haven’t been able to figure out how to do it. Have you and if so, could you tell me how?
i got to fix this light flirting for max, it's pretty simple and it takes 1 click only
It's too bad that you only reviewed them as reframe cameras and not 360° cameras - while I do agree with most of your findings, if it's 360° you're after, then the ONE R and MAX are clearly inferior designs when it comes to parallax and will produce some disturbing images with subjects near the stitch line.
Also, were you using the same app between the ONE X and the ONE R or were you using the older app for the ONE X?
one R is so good
thanks for the very nice video
In your list of tasks, include a video about Trailblazer (GoPro Max / StreetView). :-D
My Insta 360 one R is having heating issue
It starts heating just after 5 minutes of recording that's really annoying and maybe risky too Idk whatever
I was thinking of returning it and buying go pro max
Can you tell go pro Max has heating problem too
Well you were in our neck of the woods reviewing the camera I am looking at. Wish I had know we could have taken you fishing and tested it inside our SnoBear.
Hi Ben, thanks for the video. I’m an amateur photographer and this is gonna be my first action camera. The main use is snowboarding shooting both 360 and “hero mode”. Some family vacations, mostly outside, mostly during the day. I’m looking for KISS camera to set ones and have fun with. I probably edit with my IPhone during the flight back home although I got the Pr too. Which one will you recommend for that use?
You will not regret getting the GoPro MAX. It has incredible stabilization (especially in HERO mode), as fantastic image quality, and the best audio. Most importantly, it's just fun and easy to use. it has easily replaced all my other cameras and I've captured so many amazing family memories with it, I can't recommend it enough.
DANIEL Rogness 🚀🚀🚀keep up the good work
I did click in the link to buy the One X camera but it said Out-stock Do you know if they are coming with a new model or something? man I wanted to buy this camera ;( I want to start doing my 3D virtual tour. Thanks for sharing these videos
I have the One X. Will I get the One R? Probably not only because they are near identical at this time. I like the low profile of the X and the all-weather batteries do help a lot. I am not convinced the X or R are really full on action cams like the Max. Consumer grade 360 cams, yes. I mainly use my phone as my video screen when I record with the X so dim screen is ok in low light. I will wait until another consumer cam makes a debut and then consider putting my X to ZZZZZZ.
saving my money for one of the 8K cams! :) did you try the color plus on the one x or one r?
Yes- will release some Qoocam vids soon :)
Love your video
Hi Ben! When do you plan to do a video on the 1-inch mod? Love the video reviews so far--trying to decide which one to buy for my upcoming trip to Japan for a first-time vlog. :D Not sure if I would benefit more on the 1-inch or the twin so I'm going to wait for your review first.
Hey- will release it within the next week :)
Hi Ben, I'm hesitating between Insta one R and de Gopro Max. It's mostly for extrême sports and family use. I'm want to know which has the most easiest and fastest program for editing (smartphone + desktop) . I'll only use the program of the brand or Imovie, nothing else. Thanks in advance!
I’d say One R has slightly better software :)
@@BenClaremont Thanks Ben!
Bro I subbed. When u say the one r has a screen protector are they replaceable?
Screen protector? I never said that.
Footage looks much better than within the 360 youtube player
