I agree. The x4 definitely sharper, but not that much, not worth to upgrade, and it's larger. The x3 is already large compared my older Sony cams. Why I really hate Insta? I bought my x3 just 2 months ago. Everybody said that Insta releases their cameras in every autumn. No roadmaps like at Apple, Samsung. So,now I have a new x3 for the same price as the x4.

I think this is a massive upgrade as the 8K really make a difference--people complaining about the sensor but do you really know how bulky it would be if you stuck 2 bigger sensors in the camera? X4 already gives the best output with physical restriction and I believe this is the best all-in-one action camera in the market you can get already

Thank you for the excellent, informative video, highly appreciated. I've got a few questions about Insta X4 (or Insta in general), related to my long car drive recordings. 1. Does it work long time when plugged to a charger? With a GoPro I can record many hours without swapping the battery. 2. Does it have a time warp mode (like a GoPro, time lapse with stabilization and horizon levelling - for dynamic scenes, long drives for example)? 3. Can it be controlled from a mobile phone, thru an app?

I am trying to make up my mind about which camera to buy. I never had a 360 camera before and all the review videos I watched make me want to get one. One question I have is, are these cameras gods for underwater videos? Even in this video Jordan said they aren’t so good underwater but dive cases are available. What does that mean? Does dive case somehow improve the clarity? What does a dive case even do? Isn’t the camera already waterproof without the dive case? Thank you already for your answers.

@Roy_MO
@Roy_MO Ай бұрын
If you want a more direct camera that doubles as an action camera then go for Ace pro. But personally I won’t advice you if you have a solid phone camera. Because it’s more or less going to give you similar features. If you want a more exciting imaging and videos, and you aren’t sure about which one, then go for X3. If you want the best image quality, 8k resolution, more rugged and slightly better color science. Then go for the X4. Personal advice, go for the X3, most of the amazing 360 camera videos you see on KZfaq, TikTok, Instagram and other social networks were created by the X3. If you have a good camera phone then you don’t need the Ace or Ace pro. With the X3 or X4 you’d be able to create more exciting features and do more adventure shots. A friend of mine in Finland has the X3 and he records his baby and trust me he makes very exciting videos. Sadly he don’t post on socials except WhatsApp, I’d have sent his handle to check him out. So my advice is, get the X3 and wait for X5 which would have a bigger sensor. If you really want to get the best performance but only slightly better than the X3 then go for X4. But if you ain’t going to be using the 8k like most people won’t, then X3 is the best bet!!

I was leaning towards the X series because of it's unquie views vs the Ace models.

Great review (like the fourth I'm watching now). The X4 really seems to be a great image quality update real 4K was always missing with 360 vids, especially the higher frame rates are a game change for action sports (which most of us use it for I gues?). It just seems like the overall most rounded 360° action cam right now, given that the other cams and X2 and X3 have more compromises. Guess it is reaaally time to replace my trusty Osmo Action 4 for daily shoots and get this bad boy, you convinced me :D

So, it's difficult for now to know a real review where the balance doesn't just ''TIP'' to whether you buy the x4 when most of the reviews are gift cameras. Let's wait a couple of months where normal humans buy and give their reviews ;) Still, thanks for the work for showing the videos of the 2 cameras, thank you!

Does the X4 drop 12 seconds of video too when it splits the file for a long recording?

Great review, as always, but not worth the upgrade for existing X3 users. To me, it's a question of what currently works well, as opposed to drilling down on resolution specs, etc. that the average person doesn't notice on fast-paced action videos. What's really disturbing though is the X4's glass “Premium Lens Guard” option that's not backward compatible to the X3. As most X3 users can attest, the current X3 “Sticky Lens Guard” option is clumsy, expensive, and adversely affects image quality. Believe me, accidentally scratch a lens and you're in for lengthy, costly, repair and/or replacement process! Perhaps an X3 to X4 trade-in program would persuade current X3 users to “take the plunge”, but then too, there's all those accessories (e.g. dive case, batteries, charge hubs, et-al) that do not migrate to the X4. Albeit the Insta360 X3 and X4 are both amazing cameras, but for now, I’m sticking with my X3.

Great review and comparison by Jordan. Answered all the questions I could have possibly had. Guessing he had advance access to the camera seeing as how he's got a book out and a very comprehensive video on launch day! @delzane, thanks for your comments. Here's where I'm at... I just got my X3 last summer and already had to go through the repair process once due to a scratched lens. So naturally the thought of having easily removable and reusable lens guards is tugging at me to upgrade. Honestly should have been a part of the original design to begin with. The problem is I've also got 3 extra batteries, the 10 ft selfie pole and the GPS remote. Guessing the pole and remote would still work with the X4 but sucks that I can't still use the batteries. Agreed a trade in program would certainly ease the pain but from the company's perspective, I doubt we'd see something like that. Admittedly it's par for the course with electronics that there's always the shiny new model right around the corner so I guess I have to really think about how I use my X3 to see if it's worth upgrading. It's just those damn lens guards killing me. For context, I'm still using a GoPro Hero 4 knowing they are up to the 12 now, but the ancient GoPro still does what I need it to. It's rugged. Really frustrated about these lens guards!

How cool would it be if you could tripod two of these that were linked. Anything walking thru, the software could let you do matrix-like camera movements.

How’s the lenses? Any upgrades on them? Keep reading comments how bad they scratch..(x3) trying to figure out if I should get the x3 or new x4, mainly because of that

The X4 is way far from a Sony telephoto, but it also is able to create something completely unique to what a traditional camera can capture. Have fun with it!

I bought the X3 when it was like $50 off before Christmas. I didn't plan on using it till around now/spring and summer. Then the X4 get released and is much better and they wont do nothing about it... ugh... I did some tests on the 360 degree mode which I plan to take videos with on my motorcycle and they quality is horrible unless I run it through an AI editor after...

18 seconds ago Does it still fuck up the date of recording when changing out depleted batteries? Have they fixed that or at least allow it to be changed EASILY after youve already taken it? Its 10 months behind and i cant find the menu option to reset to todays date in the menus. Youd thunk for toys such expensive , the Chinese would think of this even if its a tranlate before idea in broken Chinese person.

Id be using the 360 on motorcycle trips. Would the wind reduction setting alone be worth the upgrade to the x4?
@JordanHetrick
@JordanHetrick 2 күн бұрын
Both of the cameras have a wind reduction setting, but I do find that the audio on the X4 is much better than the X3. The X4 just has an Auto setting, but you could manually select this on the X3 when you know it's going to be windy.

Yes, you may still run into the same issues. The main benefit is that they can be easily removed, so now, it's much more convenient to just use them when necessary.

Having had to send my x3 back after failing 19 seconds under 2 foot of water with salt water in the battery compartment I’m waiting to see if they replace . If they don’t then I won’t be upgrading I’ll be ditching the x3 and not buying insta again . The camera was correctly sealed and locked , checked and double checked . If they do replace or repair I’d be tempted to upgrade even though the x3 was only a month old

I would reach out to them and explain the situation. If it was properly sealed, it's advertised to be waterproof to 33' deep. It probably just depends on how it has to be proven. I hope they take care of it for you!
