It's a good improvement to the X3 but it still aint good in recording night time video. I use the One RS one inch edition and it's a better Insta360 video camera for both day and night time videos. Oh, the lens guards sucks. Don't use them. They add glare and ruin the video images.
Yeah, low light performance will not be great but I still have to test it more in the following days to see where it stands exactly. I’m not a fan of the RS 1” for different reasons, but the 1” sensor and lower light performance are still key features on that camera
I just bought one for my bike adventures as it’s less hassle than missing the shot on a normal action camera. The APP looks so very easy to also make small movies quickly too so a bonus.
yeah the shoot first, frame later is a big advantage for sure
Your videos are with awesome quality of content. Contents are crisp and clear to understand. Tone of voice is also good .keep going
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Thanks for a great review!
Please also compare X4 and DJI pocket 3/2 to get a better understanding of stabilization, picture quality, and other specs.
you are welcome! Yeah sounds like a good idea! Thanks for your suggestion
Many thanks for the informative video, Otto. I couldn't find any information of how to hold the camera whilst recording. Meaning: Do you hold the camera with one of the lenses facing upwards or do you hold the camera with both lenses facing sideways? There must be some difference in the final results I guess. Grateful if you could explain a bit.
Hi. Yeah. I hold the camera in an upright position using a something at the bottom like a small extension stick. One lens facing forward the other facing backward
Hi! Great video! i had a question on the insta360x4. did you have issues exporting videos on the app, saying your device didnt have enough space, when it did? or playing videos back in memode on the app? my just play back all black
Hi, no, no issues at all
Your reviews are easy to understand! Thanks! I have a question. When shooting in single camera mode, what is the narrowest FOV one can get from the camera. In other words, what is the mm comparison? Can it shoot as narrow as 16mm equivelent? I ask, because I do not like the 170 FOV that is advertized and I cannot find anything to explain if it can be narrower.
By default the FOV is going to be super wide because that's just how the lens is. You can select a narrower field of view but this is going to be basically a crop of your image
I ordered then canceled Pocket 3 because I think my Pocket 1 is still good enough for IG. I wanted to replaced my chipped lens first Insta360. I haven’t done under water and other action shots in awhile and with the X4, I can create those again
thanks for sharing your experience about it.
Thanks Otto...your review covers everything I needed to Know...I'm sold..get this man a discount code👌🏿
no discount codes for now, but sometimes the official website throws a freebie for customers. Be sure to check it out before you buy.

: Single lens mode, is the resolution and vedio quality of the vedio similar to other action cameras that does the same..? Like that of ACE pro and DJI action 4...?
Resolution is similar but between cameras can be different because of other factors. Those 2 that you mentioned will be better in terms of video quality than the X4. There is a video comparing them both on my channel
Wow I just took my X3 back to best buy I’m glad I did.maybe I’ll get this one lol… I sure hope DJI they waits awhile before they make a new pocket.
Glad you were able to return it. Yeah this one should be a better pick. Regarding P3, or rather a new P4, we’ll have to wait and see.
Sounds like a great upgrade!
it is quite nice!
Great first initial review, thanks. I plan to buy my first 360 camera this year and this will be high on the list. Anyone know if or when they plan to release the next version of the Insta360 ONE RS 1-Inch? It is out of stock at their store when I write this.
Thanks! this one is a great choice. I'm not sure if they will release a second version of the RS 1". Low light performance will be better on that camera.
A good summary, thanks. Your explanation of reframing and resolution will be very useful to people who are not familiar with how 360 cameras work. But having watched reviews for hours, it seems to me that the improvement in resolution offered by the X4 is not the most distinctive advantage vs the X3. If you could get the colours and dynamic range of the two cameras to match, and then uploaded a video with samples from each not side by side, I bet few people would guess correctly which camera the samples came from. One reviewer posted shots of a focus chart and there the difference was considerable. But in real world shots, the resolution does not seem radically different at least on RUclips. But I do agree that the overall picture quality of the X4 is a very worthwhile improvement.
Thank you Peter, always nice to have your opinion! Having used the X3 for quite some time, I do see a big difference between the 2 of them. It's not about the dynamic range or the color, there is more detail, less noise, etc on the X4. I did a few side by side tests, and used the same export settings: in every case it was very clear which video was taken with the X3 or the X4. The 8K and I guess internally (the processor) are making quite a difference.
@@OttoJulian_ The big difference between you and I is that you have the X4 and I don't! So your opinion carries a lot of weight with me. Thanks!
Hi Otto you can try DJI mic 2 and connect to the osmo action 4 please
What is your question exactly? DJI mic 2 works with Action 4
Yes
And do the review of DJI mic 2
fogging was the complaint of X3 with lens guard.
Does this occur with X4 ?
I didn't experience any but honestly I didn't use them day and night as I wasn't too happy with the final results (althought I would use them no matter what if the situation calls for extra protection)
It would be cool if I could stitch my existing Insta X3 with a newly purchased X4 to create 3d or immersive videos.
that would be cool yeah
May i ask what the native resolution of the reframed video is? Is it still 1080p?
And is it true that new lens guards can appear in 360 video?
I would say it's close to 2K now. lens guards do introduce more flares and artifacts than usual, I would only use them if it's absolutely necessary to protect the main lens
@@OttoJulian_ Thank you.
You are welcome !!
Nice review sir . TQ.u are always best
Always welcome
@@OttoJulian_ TQ sir
Change the speed of the video to x1.25
You're welcome
Sure, I guess it depends on the viewer. Some think my pace is great, some will need to speed it up
Hello Otto! Could you post the 8K source files from this camera on Google Drive? At least 5-10 minutes. Thank you.
I'll see what I can do :)
Why aren’t my images being saved to my iPhone album in 360 images format after I chose export as 360? It’s just flat images doesn’t save with that 360 symbol and FB doesn’t support 360 images no more ?
when exporting, select "360" instead of "Flat"
Sucks that I bought X3 a week before they make an announcement for X4. Didn’t expect that my local shop will have their stock of X4 upon announcement as well. Guess I will wait for the X5 😢
can't you return the X3? or maybe sell it, the resell value is pretty good
It was announced on the website over a week ago. Wish it gave some details. Too bad it didnt update The Ace pro
I only use my Insta360x3 for making 9x16 reels uploaded to Instagram and Facebook. I believe max rez upload is 1080, so for me there is no benefit to get the x4, correct??
there is a big difference between videos exported from an X3 and this X4. The X4 is way better in details, it has less noise, etc. The X3 is still a good one.
How are you enjoying the Stats overlay? The one that shows your Health data from your Apple Watch? Oh, that's right, it's missing. Removed. Not one "influencer" has mentioned this, I assume because they've been told not to.
Nobody tells me what to say or not to say when I do my videos. I didn't mention it because I don't have an Apple Watch, and I don't care about that feature when I use this camera. Assuming is bad....
@@OttoJulian_ I apologize for the rant. It wasn't fair to you and it wasn't even accurate - you CAN use stats with the Apple Watch. Sorry.
@@Mark-fs7ok Thank you Mark for your follow up. Apology accepted, I completely understand the frustration with RUclipsrs not saying important stuff most of the time (That's one of the reasons I started to do my own reviews). I try to test most of the features in real life but some of them I can't test them for whatever reason.
Thanks for the great review. Please compare the X4 5.7K/30fps clip vs X3 5.7K/30fps clip. Any huge qualify difference?
I compared both cameras but not using 5.7K directly. I'm pretty sure there is going to be a difference in favor of the X4.
Awesome review Otto
Thanks!!
HI Otto, Great review asw usual. Have you planned to do some test with low light?.
I agree your opinion and this camera is a good option to buy currently. The detail of the lens protection cover is a a good one when filming extreme sports type.
Thank you for sharing with us
Hey Vincent! I only did 2 tests before making the review and because of the sensor, it's not quite pleasing, but I'm planning to test it more to draw better conclusions and there will be a follow up on this video (hoping soon)
@@OttoJulian_when insta managed to do something with ace pro for low light why not with x4?
As of now all you tubers are asked to not talk about low light and I see that pattern.
@roninr8199 the Ace Pro has a bigger sensor (let’s more light in) than the X4 and there are other components that are not the same (although the processor is the same as I said). I didn’t include low light as I always do because I was only able to test it twice in a very casual way, so I don’t have a clear opinion about it until I get to test it more. Hoping to do that in the following days but I can tell you that the results are not the greatest
@@OttoJulian_ oh yes I got tricked. When I read it has same 5nm ai I assumed low light too would be decent. Atleast if there are no jitters in dark video then might be post processing we can colour grade.
I saw someone connecting helmet Bluetooth to x4. So can you check whether any TWS BLUETOOTH gets connected with x4. Atleast we don't have to buy mic adaptor
@@roninr8199 yeah me too. For bluetooth devices I don't have a bunch to test but I know that it has somewhat of a wide range of compatibility
Does this camera support 1tb micro SD card ? If yes, which brand and model SD cards does it support ?
yes it does, this one works very well amzn.to/3Q7our1
How is video quality compare with RS 1 inch 360 ? Thanks !
That's a good question, in theory the RS 1 inch should be better but I think the lower resolution and older processor are not going to beat the X4 during the day. In low light the X4 will not be great.
My only gripe is that it can only do 4k/60fps in single lens mode. I'm not sure why it can't do 4k/120 in this mode, given that only one lens is being used.
Agreed. I suspect this is not a limitation inside the camera, but could be to prevent overheating, which happens to be a very hot topic when it comes to these cameras
@@OttoJulian_ True. Yes, that would be the only explanation why they capped it at 100 which could be an issue on certain timelines.
hi... SanDisk Extreme Pro 256GB microSDXC UHS-I, V30, 200MB/s Read, 140MB/s is memory card is suttable ha for 8k video shoot ?
Yeah the extreme pro series are excellent for this camera
@@OttoJulian_ thanks
@manokarand6543 you are welcome!
No low light performance tests???
only did a casual test and then had a non-planned surgery. Will test it in the next few days
In your experience, how was the low light performance?
I only made a couple of tests and because the sensor is not too big, low light performance is not great. I will test it more in the following days to get a better idea and have a better judgement
@@OttoJulian_ thank you! greatly appreciate your videos
What about file size?
at 8K max settings, 45seconds takes ~1GB
Well let’s keep it real. GoPro 12 is still top seller.
I'll keep it real: Gopro 12 is a top seller because of the brand/reputation built years ago, not because it's a good camera.
This is really a 2k camera after reframing. And that fisheye view is nasty.
Fisheye is always nasty on any camera unless someone actually likes it. Yeah as I said, reframing takes away a lot of the initial resolution, but it’s better than what the X3 can do
👏👏👌
Thank you Virginia
