I haven't regretted my purchase of the X4, I upgraded from the X2, and also had the previous version to the X2. I've used the X4 more this summer than all the previous models put together. The improvements to the apps, phone and desktop, and the AI editing features have helped me pump more video edits than ever before. Plus I use action mode a lot, for easy edits and B-roll in other vids. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the X4, I haven't had the overheating on lens guard issues that you experienced, but I'm now be aware of them.
Yes, it’s a lot of work - but you do get some cool shots at times. 360 cams takes a science to learn how to use it. I haven’t reached that science yet 😂
great video! 👍As you say, a 3D cam is not an action. I own the X3, and it is fantastic cam for every day standard videos. It has still some issues, for instance speech control needs to have a lot of improvement. Regarding low light capabilities of an action cam - most smart phone do a better job than each action cam. Lowlight capabilities of action cams are probably the most overhyped feature - also because most people have a smartphone always available.
Great insight on this camera.... I am a huge fan of 360 and with the exception of overheating I have experienced similar lens guard issues, and thus, althought risky, I prefer to not use them just baby the darn thing and use common sense and its application. Thanks Eddie!!
I just recenlty switched from GP to the DJI Action camera and i do not regret it. Get the DJI Action, the batterly life alone is worth it. I also had the X2 a while back ago, i rarely used it however, i picked up the X4 and really like it.

It is the best "X" style camera they have made.
Drone like footage is possible, I’ve seen all over UA-cam.
As you say, there is a heavy workflow with 360 cameras. That said I do appreciate the technology. Excellent and informative video Eddie!

Well said
Thanks for the honest review, very helpful
My pleasure
Eddie…..Ya I have been looking at a X4 just not sure how much I would actually use it. Good video!
It’s a cool gadget but I wouldn’t call it a tool

Risky 😅
Oh, mehn. I have found myself leaving it more and more at home when I go shooting.
I still have my X2 with me... rocking as it is . So give me 3 reasons why you are still hocked on with GoPro? Just curious.
I actually like the video quality and colors out of a GoPro. Especially from the 11 or 12. Handles shadows and highlights much better.

X2 is doo doo compared to X4...low quality blurry images
Dude.. This case is for HEATING camera (by covering radiators) to not drain battery so fast when you are skiing:) So...
hmmmmm
How did you get the X3 bundle from Costco for only $100?!
@@joelevinson1358 It was on clearance
My X3 fell with that selfie stick also. No cage.
@@BrooklynJimmie it needs more weight at the bottom. They should of made this one differently.
@MrEddieNunez i guess they didn't want to make it to heavy to hold. Need a height limit i think for it's base size.
Is there no way to get rid of that fish eye look?
There is with the dewarp feature
Haha cigar on a bike 😅
It’s not an easy task 😊
DUDE I HATE THAT FISH EYE LOOK ...ITS JUST NOT REAL
LOL
