Insta360 One X2 review: The most fun camera
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- Insta360 just announced the next generation of its One X line of cameras: the One X2. This model adds an LCD touchscreen viewfinder and, really, most of the features found in the more expensive Insta360 One R. For the last couple of weeks, the One X2 has consistently motivated me to get out of the house, get active and see what kind of crazy footage I can capture. Honestly, it made me like a kid again.
Watch my review of the OneR where I see if Insta360's AI can edit my skate footage: • Insta360 One R review:...
Since filming this video, Insta360 has rolled out a firmware update to address audio and app freezing issues. Apps shown in video were in beta.

Thanks for watching! Have much have y'all shot 360?
waiting for miracle, 360 camera drop from cloud
Just picked the camera up and I'm completely lost on what to do with it... Lol. This video is making me want to use it though.
I have to trust your word because of your tee shirt choice!
Don’t buy a @insta360 I bought one for my travel to Europe and 6 days after buying it both lenses got scratched, the videos look horrible, THIS IS NOT AN ACTION CAMERA!!! buy a GoPro, believe me! You can write to me if you need more info but as a customer don’t buy this!!! A cellphone camera lasts much more than the insta 360; the solution they gave me is to pay $198 dollars to replace them and I didn’t even had a month with the camera … buy a go pro or any other but not this one!
youtube does horrible things with overcompression if you upload in 1080p. Best bet is to upscale your 1080 footage to 4K so that YT uses different level of compression. Even when watching it back at 1080 on YT, the result is much better. The quality of the footage looks terrible and I can't help thinking thats mostly due to YT but there is no way to tell.
I think this guy was hired for his looks for some reason long hair a mustache and an old vintage house makes me feel like this guy knows exactly what he’s talking about
This guy is Master of transition lol
Haha yess
Also because he'a good
@@john26razor340 agreed and it’s really just a joke. 🙃
Great review! Give this guy more work CNET. This was excellent!
Of all the reviews on UA-cam, this CNET review makes me want to buy this camera.
lol'd when he went into the camera portal. This video is really well made :)
Thanks, Adam!
... it's almost too good!
Those transitions though!
I like this video talks about the actual pain point for the 360 video camera, the editing part. I got a free samsung 360 video camera when I bought a Note 9. I only used twice, then it's sitting there collecting dust. Watched your video makes me want to take it out and try again even though it is already 2 years old.
Would be perfect for hiking, granted I'd use the selfie stick as a hiking pole half the time. :)
Great reviews from CNET lately because of the amazing hosts
Aw, thank you, Clint!
This was really well done. This kind of makes me want to take the jump into 360. That bullet time accessory as a string looks clutch. 🙌🏾
This looks like way too much fun! I think I gotta get one and roll outside on the snow like an idiot
The intro montage is great fun and entertaining. Thanks for the video. Very informative and balanced. Btw I don’t know how you survive such weather.
Didn't expect such legit kick flips from a tech reviewer. Nice job
how long have you had the new camera; one x2. looks like you went through three different sessions in your review? summer, autumn and winter
Only about a week and a half! Just had really insane weather. But the One R shots from the skatepark were over the summer.
Best CNET host I’ve seen!!
Good review, thanks Mr.
Wow! This guy did a great job with the review! Nice video editing. Fun to watch and informative!
I coach a u8 boys ⚽️ team. This can be the answer to the “ how did you do thatttt” I get so often 😅
I've been a GoPro dude as long as they've been around but I just won a free insta360 one X2 in an office party raffle and I'm excited but also intimidated trying to figure the whole thing out as I'm not too heavy into video making. I gotta say this was a great review and now I'm a lot more excited to try it out, thank you!
So which camera so you like better now?
Ahhh my dude I really enjoyed this review! I'm discovering more and more in my own creative journey that I'm so much less concerned about stats and 'best' and much more interested in what gets me out shooting and enjoying the creative process. With some kiddo's running around the house I love the concept of this as a 'always catch the moment' machine when the off-frame kiddo does something hilarious and with hobbies like RC's, Fatbiking, and Motorbikes the ability to have a small easy to carry machine that has all these features seems excellent!! I'm hoping that one of these is under the tree... but if not I'll be placing an order on Boxing Day I think!!
A note about your review too - it was the one that best let me know what the 'feeling' and 'experience' of shooting and editing with this machine would be. The rest of the video's out there just feel like someone reading a brochure so WELL DONE!!
I appreciate your kind words and glad you enjoyed it! 🙏
@@nichenry5220 I bought one!!
i watched this video on doing whippits and when you did that fun transition to the snow world i was not disappointed
i might buy one after watching this. thanks for your review.
You make me wanna go out and play with this camera! Hilarious, dude! You made my day!
That intro montage was fire!!!! 🤯
Sweet review totally waiting up for.
Thank you!
Great video great hair great mustache
I liked this video in the first 50 seconds just based of the edits.... it looked fantastic
thanks for honest review
The quality of the review is better than the product :D
how?
AWESOME CAMERA
Perfect points.
I have the original One X and can't wait to upgrade. I was skeptical at first but now reviews are saying its worth it.
Great review!
+ added bonus of skate content
The footage of that nose slide was sick
Amazing review, funny without being cheesy (UA-camrs just seem cheesy with their humour a lot of the time)
that's funny what you said about the Quarry. I have done the same questionable explorations of crazy locations, since buying a 360 camera. lol
Yeah I had my eyes peeled for weird places to wander into lol
Love the intro...so now I’m watching the whole video
great video, but you get my thumbs up for the Jenkem hoodie
If you have One R, you can get the Vertical Battery and waterproof case/bumper.
I might get this to film with my fpv drones
Nice video. I love when you said "the cabeza" Cool!
Is that a Insta360 One X2 in your pocket or are you just happy to see me 😳
Thank u man . I gone get one . Didnt know if it was for me but see you filming like that thank for all the info
Promote this guy... in all parallel universes. Great review!
3:55 had me cracking up in the subway hahaha
Tried the X2 in 360 mode today. Hoping the Steadicam mode works well too.
Camera is pretty amazing and good for hiking
Right on! Good job explaining thanks !
Looks cool for biking! I wonder if there's a way I could make it hands free, but then I would imagine a lot more bumps because while holding it it would be more stabilized
Cool camera and cool hipster. His Californian accent made me chuckle LoL Was very helpful 👍
I personally hate the fish eye effect/distortion of lines that comes with wide-angle. Can I avoid it completely while recording, as opposed to fixing it post?
Very well done
Sir im wedding cinematographer. Which camera i bought
Gopro hero 9 black vs insta360 one x2
I bought only for creativity. I adding total of 5 mint video in 2h wedding....!
Im shoot in night low light and multicolor lights
Indoor, banquet hall nd resorts
Sir my budget highly tight only 500$ i can only one select
Wonderful video! Love it and subscribed.
Ty! Buying now :)
Great video mate fully appreciated the effort exerted, subbed
As most of 360 enthusiastic customers get disappointed with the X2 , do you have any idea if Theta Z2 will be introduced soon ❓
Finally an excellent review from CNET!
I like his mustache.😀👍
The new one has got this ambient sound feature.
Awesome video!
Thanks for the video. Great job.
This is such a great video! I want one now 😩
I'm looking into getting one for my brother...
Does the insta 360 phone app need premium subscription for you to use all the built-in video templates/accessories?
Hey.
THANK YOU for the nice video, instructions.
IS IT KNOWN WHEN A NEW MODEL WILL BE COMING SOON
Insta360 One K3. Let's think about shopping.
Best regards.
Is it worth buying this if you have an insta360 twin edition?
Buyer beware, the companion app (required to use) only has 2 stars on the play store. I wish someone had told me before I bought it but the terrible app experience is never noted in the reviews.
OMG, this guy sounds like Zach Woods!!!!!
❤️ the moustache
Got new thought, the earth is flat, but it looks round just like this video😆
Good video. Thanks.
I would not like to buy X2.
Do you know the release date of Insta360 One X3?
Great review!👏
Great review.. my one x has the same issue I saw in your video at 2:35 in the background a few seconds of micro jitters, you notice that as well?
Yeah, the image quality can definitely be wonky and sometimes is hard to avoid the flaws. That being said, overall I think it does a pretty good job of doing stitch work/stabilization etc. where it's worth the tradeoff of not having to do that stuff yourself. Also both the camera firmware and apps were still in beta while filming this video and they have been releasing updates.
This videos as boss as that guys mustache
If you choose 360 recording, does it record 360 all de time? I mean, I see the camera "spinning" in the videos, but it's not actually rotating, the camera recorded all around and when editing you choose which angle to show (because you have all angles recorded), is that it?
Really struggling with the editing, all i get is two circles of films and not ''knitted'' together.
Great review Borat.
Thank you! Helpful video indeed. I have an oculus quest to and I am interested in getting this camera but I don’t have any knowledge as to how it could work for viewing in the VR world or perhaps even editing. Do you know anything about it?
Im so confuse. Did u use selfie stick? How u do that?
holy eff I miss those Flip Cam days...
Is it compatible with voice activation?
Will it work with Google Street View?
Epic video!
Thanks for the very informative video. One question though: why would editing via the app impact on your phone data plan? Surely you’re connected directly (on wifi or Bluetooth) and not going, somehow, through the cloud. That would be a complete deal-breaker for me, for many reasons.
Yeah wth definitely seems wrong IMO.
Gopro 9 vs Insta 360 X2? Which is the best?
Just came back from a motorcycle ride with my insta360 one x2. The entire camera was gone, except for a round plug with the screw port on my mount. Very disappointing.
I'm going to subscribe your channel because I like your hair and moustache.
Does it take good quality photos?
Ice review I have a 360 1R and really liked it you mentioned the GoPro Max I had it before I got the one r and it was pretty awful to use super buggy pretty standard GoPro battery issues won't stay charged won't charge all of those wonderful GoPro problems I actually talked to some professional photographers with the project that I was working with at the time ask them what I was doing wrong and they said the biggest mistake that I made was I bought a GoPro so you probably want to leave that GoPro max out of your camera lineup thanks for the review
Watching here.. New friend.. Full support
Ha ha! 😂 How’d you do that effect where you get sucked into the tv?
I searched "sucked into portal after effects" on youtube 😂
Can you export 360 video? Everything I see people have used it to capture 360 degrees, but export regular 180(?)…where user could pan around as they watch…?
I like your style brother....
This camera is great for video, but the audio is a HUGE letdown as it is absolutely awful! I recorded a club DJ and a trade exhibition, and my phone had 10 better audio, The music recording on the 36o camera kept on filtering in and out and was really low.
excellent
I haven't shot 360 any at all but I had a Flip video camera also. I couldn't understand why they didn't make accessories for it ( bar mounts, helmet mounts etc.) since it was a design clearly screaming for those things. Enter Go Pro a few years later.
All videos look weird given the stick, although it is not visible.
Hi can you run a test on this camera. To exhaust the battery recording 360 without it overheating. I think this is a design fault with every single one. Please send reply if you manage to test this. Or try without battery still overheating Thank you Les
8:37 that stitch line though... :(
What is the camera attached to when you're running or boarding? Is it a long pole?
