Product details
The Insta360 X5 delivers outstanding image quality even in low light thanks to its new, larger 1/1.28" sensors and special Pro Imaging Chips. The PureVideo mode with AI noise reduction ensures vivid and clear recordings in any lighting situation. 360° videos allow you to select the best angle later with AI-supported reframing. The ultra-hard lens coating protects against damage, and thanks to the interchangeable lens design, you can easily replace them yourself if necessary. The powerful battery enables up to 185 minutes of recording time and charges to 80 % within 20 minutes. In addition, an innovative windscreen effectively reduces wind noise and ensures crystal-clear sound.

An action camera is an expensive accessory. The X4 currently costs 100 euros less than the X5 and can largely hold its own against the newer model. Those who run the risk of breaking their camera during use will benefit from the X5's interchangeable lenses. The new InstaFrame selfie mode is not robust. In poor light, the larger sensors and AI-supported noise reduction have a positive effect.
Very good84/100
- Good videos in low light
- Lens interchangeable
- Quickly ready for use
- A little heavy
- Old accessories no longer compatible
The Insta360 X5 focuses on the user experience: better results in low light, fast and instantly shareable videos thanks to Insta-Frame and simple editing in the app. The images look great thanks to 8K resolution and image stabilisation, and the colours and contrasts are superb. On the other hand, there are deductions due to the bulky dimensions and the rather high price.

- Ready to record in a flash

- First-class stabilisation
- Poor quality lens caps - scratch easily
A great camera, but not cheap. Quickly ready, good pictures even in low light, not completely distortion-free in vlogger mode. The sound: almost immune to wind noise.
Very good98/100
The Insta360 X5 is a convincing successor to the X4 and scores with even better image quality, even more sophisticated functions and an even more robust design. It is an excellent choice for users who want to get the best out of 360-degree recordings.
