This is my honest comparison of the new Insta360 Ace Pro versus GoPro 12. Let me show you the pros and cons to each action camera, and by the end you should know which is the best fit for your needs! I'll compare 4K vs 5K video, 4K120 FPS, FOV, resolution, stabilization, audio samples, photos, smart AI features, PureVideo for low light, 2x Clarity Zoom, and much more. (Disclosure: this video is NOT sponsored. Thank you Insta360 for sending me an early sample unit for review.)

What’s the low light of the insta Ace? As these are actually more similar price to the GoPro 🤔 keep things fair, if I spend £100 more I expect it to beat the GoPro obviously

I upgraded my GoPro 11 to ace pro. Big mistake. My ace pro stabilisation doesn’t work. I have run 3 ultra marathons with it and it’s like an old GoPro 6. Insta have been very unhelpful. They said I had to pay to return it to Hong Kong. They said editing software will help. I advised them it is sold as an action camera with stability. I have been talking to them for over a week and they have been so unhelpful and won’t admit my camera is a dud.

Would love to see the Ace Pro up against the Action 4. Also, can the Ace Pro work with the DJI mics w/ that USB-C port? I assume it can work with the Mic 2 via Bluetooth though.

Have a Hero 12, tempted by Ace Pro mostly for the low light capability. But that non-removable lens cover is an absolute deal breaker. I don't want to have to baby my camera while I'm on the go. It's really annoying, because I have both an Insta360 X3 (which has replaced my GoPro MAX) and a GO 3 (for use as a discreet life logger while I'm out & about) and I love the Insta360 software environment. Insta360, get your act together on your action camera!!

lens cover is removable. and you can do this by yourself but after you remove the lenscover it can get moisture inside and that can cause fog under water. you must do in dry air.

Hi. I want to know if we can connect bluetooth microphone in that insta or in the GoPro . GoPro says that they are able to connect headphones like air pods or similar to record the audio from them. I see that you have the accesorie to connect to an external microphone to the insta, but is it waterproof or no? My goal would be to connect an external microphone, either bluetooth or cable so that the audio is recorded better. It will be a good video with the accesories. Thanks

It is about specs when it comes to low light or ability to zoom on the sensor. In this regard Insta360 kills the GoPro. GoPro's low light video is barely usable.

Hello, Thank you for this interesting test! I would like to clarify some-thing that you left out about action cams with fixed lens protection like the Hero8 (which I still have 😉). Everyone who bought the 9, 10... lost a lot of money because water had entered through the lens after a light rain and their Gopro was dead! So it makes me laugh to argue about possible scratches because I have very light ones and frankly, it doesn't change an-ything. In addition, we have been waiting for so long for an actionCam that is like the famous Sony Action Cams (with their mechanical stabilization, they were the best), so this is already an essential point in low light and high contrast for the Insta360 Ace Pro.

@TineyGrouse 6 ай бұрын

If you don't care about how the GoPro tends to bend image and don't really want to do much low light I'd go with GoPro to be honest and wait for another generation of the ace pro before switching. I just got a GoPro and it's super simple to use and feels tough I'd like to see how the folding screen holds up with some abuse or after drops with it open
