Insta360 X5: new 360° action camera with improved sensor and AI features
By ForGeeks Insta360 has introduced the Insta360 X5, a new 360° action camera that succeeds the X4. It’s not just an update, but a significant step forward, especially in terms of filming quality and smart features. The device is already available for $549.99 in the US and Rs. 54,990 in India.
Improved sensor and 8K video
The camera has a 1/1.28-inch sensor – larger than the X4 – which provides a noticeable boost in image quality, especially when shooting 8K video at 30fps. Processing is handled by a triple AI chip that optimizes images in real time.
AI and Night Mode
One of the key new features is the PureVideo AI mode, which improves low-light shooting. Thanks to it, you can expect crisp and rich footage even at night. There’s also InstaFrame Mode, which lets you record both classic «flat» videos and 360-degree clips that can be edited later.
New ways to control and shoot
The camera offers Twist to Shoot, Voice Control 2.0 and Gesture Control, all of which make it easier to shoot on the move or hands-free. Controls are even more intuitive, especially for athletes and vloggers.
Durability and autonomy
Insta360 X5 has been given a durable glass that resists damage and an interchangeable lens system, which is especially useful in extreme conditions. The camera is waterproof up to 15 meters without a box and offers up to 3 hours of battery life – a marked improvement over previous models.
