I love the ShotLab features, it's actually why I bought my ONE R - sooooooooo many COOL features with no editing! I updated the app and saw the new features are for both ONE R and ONE X2😍. Seems mostly a hardware difference between R and X2, that battery and screen look nice

@killmore88 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Charlotte. Quick question. Can the One R do the 9 shot bracketed HDR Photo that Ben talks about after the update? Thx 👍

@whatiship89 3 жыл бұрын

I just updated my app and saw that ONE X can now use more of the shot lab effects, including Clone Trail and even the new Ghost Town one. And it seems all of the new ones support ONE R too. It's pretty impressive how fast Insta360 comes out with app updates actually compared to GoPro

It's all academic. The bottom line, it isn't going to get me to retire my X and open a new chapter with the X2. If my X is ever damaged beyond repair, or finally craps out, I'll replace it with the X2. As far as the post-editing modes, all of them are very interesting, but how many times can you use them before they become tired and overused? They really put GoPro in a corner with the R, they should have worked to do the same with Ricoh's Z1.

A little screen, you still need your phone, USB C is not the end of the world not having that. The only big improvments are that it's waterproof (not much, maybe for rain or if you drop it) and the bigger battery.... I would change all of that for better sensor and more resolution.....

Thanks for the review! I've never had a 360 camera, but the stabilisation of this cam looks killer. I first heard about the invisible selfie stick from Insta360 so the marketing works😂 Honestly i'm pretty lazy so I'd probably use the steady cam and pano features to cut down on editing, dont hate

@brianfromsyr 3 жыл бұрын

I am in the same mindset as you. My only experience with 360 is a few trips with an old Samsung 360 camera. I loved it. The Insta 360 X2 for me is nice because I am not in love with the thought of editing for several hours. The footage should be impressive enough for everyone that doesn't want to be a pro.

Great video! But there are many things that I don't agree. I saw other reviews and the image quality improved quite a lot, especially in coloring and bitrate. They also improved the lenses, not exact same material as R or X.

@trickfall8752 3 жыл бұрын

Waterproof and being less reliant on the app when shooting is enough to warrant the upgrade for me. Also, while I get where you are coming from with limiting some software features to the newer cameras I don't have an ethical problem with that because when you buy the camera you are also buying the software. What I do think would be smart though is for Insta360 to let you upgrade your software for a reasonable price. I mean I'd probably be willing to spend twenty, or thirty dollars to gain access to the new features and it's reasonable for them to be able to recoup ongoing development costs.

Absolutely on point re the questionable ethics with their effects. I bought into Insta360 initially, right up to and including the One X and the 360 GO, but as soon as I got wind of the _questionable_ restrictions, my money stayed in my pocket. I’ve seen _dozens upon dozens_ of folks adopting the same mindset. How regrettable. The auto-waterproof status is really appealing (game changer for what I do) but once the trust is damaged, well, it’s damaged. Their solution would be an apology, a change of stance and let’s all move forward. How refreshing would that be 😁🤩🤞

'Shouldn't upgrade' from One X REALLY depends on your usage scenario I think - my main use is outdoors, esp snow and near water. Using a case is really annoying and stitch lines suffer. As well as the screen I believe this also has voice control so no more dreadful remote controller. Bigger battery...again snow/outdoors use, yes please. Hopefully you won't need Insta's proprietary cable to dump footage etc to an iPhone any more either. For my needs as a One X owner, selling the One X plus accessories at a decent price makes this a totally worthwhile upgrade - better features and screen visibility =time/stress saved, less damage risk (hopefully) and less stuff to carry around/lose adds up to an upgrade here.

I pulled the trigger on a One X2 but your criticism is still very much appreciated and a very refreshing change to other review channels. I've had VR since 2016 and really wanted a stereoscopic 360 or even updated 180 camera, but it seems like the only two contenders are the Vuzix XR or EVO, and the EVO's been discontinued long ago. Hopefully in the next couple years as VR adoption grows even further companies will release new stereo cameras again.

@chris 3 жыл бұрын

The ethics issue is a big one for me. I had the X and had no issues with it, but I wanted some of the new features that as you stated were available for a short time to the X before they changed the apps. There's no reason at all why the new features in the shot lab are limited to the X2 other than greed to get people to upgrade to the X2. Well it finally worked. I sold my X on eBay and paid the difference to upgrade to the X2. It is a better camera for a lot of reasons (which you covered) but their business practices need to be improved in order to maintain customer loyalty. Basically they're saying that you have to upgrade (even if there's no logical reason to do so) in order to get the new features. Also, waiting 2 years for the X2 from the X and there aren't any upgrades to the camera? Shame on them. In 1 or 2 years they'll be at it again with the X3--but hopefully they'll release the 8K version (of course after releasing the R2 with 8K 9 months before the X3). Insane...

Must admit I was impressed with Insta’s hype. 360 is something I’m seriously considering to record video of our travels (if/when COVID restrictions end). It’ll take care of trying to decide where to point the camera and allow the viewer to choose...was in SYD earlier this year and just so much going on around the Opera House I KNOW I was missing something in order to catch something else! As a matter of interest, how good is the GPS accessory? Does it plot the various locations on, say, a Google map? or just a squiggly line overlay on the video? The promo shot is a little vague.

Not that I have the same opinion as you (I do), but to also provide truth to the advertising and marketing of all the cam companies, not just Arashi Vision, is simply fantastic and appreciated. Now, GoPro typically provides a reduced bundle price or give a price reduction on their products most holiday seasons; I wonder if Arashi Vision will do the same? If they do, I'll be using your link in the description to buy the One X2! Thanks for all you do, Ben, and we look forward to your full review!

they shouldve just made this a step up and still sell the one x at a reduced cost. this is a fix of the one x, although good, its still not budget friendly. we need a good budget 360 below $300.

Who would buy the One X2 if the One X was available at a knock down price? How would they fund the development of the next camera if their profits are reduced?

@truthseeker6804 3 жыл бұрын

@@geekinthegarden3927 if a person is buying the one x and sees that the x2 is waterproof, that can lead people to buy the x2 rather. if they reduce the price they can get more buyers and make more profit due to more sales, than having the prices that high.

Insta360 is just doing what Apple is doing, releasing a new 360 camera/phone with no real upgrades or improvements while removing some essential items. You're right Ben, there are complaints in the comment section alright.

I only own an ipad but Apple release updates for as long as the hardware supports it - often 4 to 5 years where you get new features. The new hardware they release is much power powerful than android, useful if maybe you edit on your phone - like some journalists etc

Thank you for your thoughts and honest comparison For me personally, the biggest and most important achievement is that it is waterproof and that I no longer need different housings for it if there is only heavy fog, drizzle or snow An important question occurs to me right now, does the new camera even fit the old housing from the oneX? The ones I have were quite expensive, especially those for diving :D Thank you and best wishes Stefan

I dont agree. The photo/sound/stiching quality and stabilization of the One X2 is better than the regular one X and one R. Yesterday i have watched the reviews of 360rumors and creator up and they adressed quite some positive things about the X2. The ai editing for virtual tours is awsome. The Z1 images are slightly more detailed but it takes more time to edit them to get similar results.

Dude those camera manufactors are limited by what chips are on the market and what's technically possible. For now we have to stick with 4K 60 in the consumer world

@@whatiship89 but qoocam 8k which was released 2 years ago can do 8k @ 30fps and 4k @ 120fps for similar price. It has just terrible software. If that camera had insta360′s software, that wouldve been perfect.

As someone who has often used the original ONE X for work applications (roundtable discussions, concerts, videography with reframe), I see quite a few reasons to upgrade. H265 recording itself (along with the new sharping from the R) is a big plus - but then to have the screen for quick stitch line and exposure checks; AirPod mic support, Multiview (does it create two separate MP4s?) and steady cam mode (baked in video like this can't be understated with quick turnarounds) for videography purposes, and generally improved built-in reference audio and water resistance all sweeten the deal. I certainly agree with your issue about insta360 claiming certain effects being tied to specific cameras, however I never use them to begin with. Just my perspective.
