The X4 raises the bar for 360 action cameras. The 8K footage is incredibly sharp, and it makes a big difference when reframing shots — details stay clear even after heavy cropping. FlowState stabilization is excellent, keeping everything smooth whether mounted on a car, helmet, or handheld.
The app integration is one of my favorite parts: reframing, tracking, and exporting clips is quick and intuitive, which saves a lot of time in post. The battery life is better than older Insta360 models, though I’d still recommend extra batteries if you’re shooting all day.
It’s slightly bulkier than the previous generation, but that trade-off is worth it for the image quality and new features. Overall, the X4 feels like a must-have tool for creators who want flexibility and cinematic results from a compact setup.

Upgrading from the Insta 360 X3 to the new Insta 360 X4 has been a huge step up, and I couldn’t be happier with the decision. The X3 was already a solid camera, but the X4 feels like a whole new level of performance. The video quality is noticeably sharper, especially in low light, and the stabilization is even smoother than before. I also really appreciate the improved battery life—it lasts longer on shoots, which makes a big difference when you’re out and about capturing content.
The touchscreen feels more responsive compared to the X3, and the overall design still has that same sturdy, compact build that I liked about the previous model. What really stands out is how much more efficient the X4 is—it’s faster to process footage, and the editing workflow feels less clunky than it did with the X3.
If you enjoyed the X3, the X4 feels like the natural next step. It’s familiar enough to feel comfortable right away but refined enough that you really notice the upgrades.

I am a long time GoPro owner/user. With all the "bugs" that have been causing me to lose a whole lot of footage in the recent models I have been looking into camera options. The main comment that made me take a long hard look at the Insta 360 cameras was they don't have "bugs" like GoPro. After a whole lot of reading reviews, watching videos, and reading actual owner/user feedback I invested in an Insta 360 X4. I have only used it a handful of times but my initial impression is good. The video editing definitely is different than what I am used to and to be honest is one of the things that kept me from getting an X4 sooner. I've used the editing program a few times and have been able to get through it to make a few videos and it does take extra time but it's not too bad. The X4 is amazing. Being able to pick out any view I want/need is awesome. The video quality looks excellent to me. The camera seems to be fairly straightforward to operate. I have been only a little confused with finding the settings I want to change and getting them set where I want. As I said I have only used it a handful of times so I can't say much of anything about the long term use and or durability. I will say that the battery life is fairly impressive. I got more life than I expected and I am using the X4 in the 8k 30fps mode. Well done Insta 360.

I love this product! The Insta360 X4 is truly a game-changer for anyone who loves capturing immersive content. The 8K resolution is absolutely stunning — the image clarity and video quality blew me away. It’s super easy to use, and the app makes editing your footage simple, even for beginners.
The stabilization is incredible, making every shot look smooth and professional, even when recording action scenes. The battery life is much better than I expected, and the new design feels solid and durable.
Whether you’re into action sports, travel vlogging, or just love recording family moments in a creative way, this camera is totally worth it. Highly recommend it — it’s one of the best 360 cameras I’ve ever used!

Amazing quality and easy to use. Battery life is decent for the quality it produces but i recommend getting extra. My favorite function is the 360 recording and the ability to edit in 360 as well. It traces objects and has many more exciting features. Ive bought 2 already!

Next-Level 360 Camera with Stunning 8K Clarity
|
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Insta360 X4 is hands down one of the most powerful and versatile action cameras I’ve used. Shooting in 8K opens up incredible detail and flexibility for reframing content later. Whether you’re capturing adventures, vlogs, or cinematic shots, this camera handles it all with ease.
The video quality is outstanding, and the built-in stabilization (FlowState) makes everything look smooth, even when you're moving fast. I also love the new single-lens mode for traditional wide-angle shots in 4K — perfect when you don’t need 360. The invisible selfie stick effect is still super cool, and now with even better battery life, I can film longer without constantly recharging.
Build quality feels premium, and it’s waterproof out of the box, which makes it ideal for travel or outdoor activities. If you're serious about content creation or just want the most future-proof camera out there, the X4 is absolutely worth it.
Highly recommend for creators, adventurers, or anyone who wants to capture life in full 360° detail!

Best 360 for motorcycles

Great camera. Sturdy on my motorcycle. Clear images and videos. The editing app is SICK. Picture is a still from a 360 video at 60mph, check out how clear it is!
Only thing that sucks is that without the longer stick, the distortion is pretty significant. The picture is with the camera mounted directly onto my handlebar.

The Insta360 X4 is a significant leap forward in 360-degree action cameras, making it a top contender for both amateurs and professional content creators. Its standout feature is the new 8K 360-degree video capture, which provides incredible detail and allows for more flexible reframing in post-production. The camera also boasts a much-improved battery life, lasting up to 135 minutes at 5.7K30fps, a substantial increase over its predecessor.

Impressive camera! I was skeptical of these after seeing distorted videos, then I thought about using it for an inspection project and was pretty impressed. I was hoping for more detail when you zoom in, but overall it gets the details needed for the task. Battery charges fast, fairly intuitive controls, about the only negative I've found is that it gets hot fast and the lenses seem vulnerable. Video is fairly poor in darker areas.

I cannot recommend this enough. The use case for content creators is obvious. I’m just a dad. I bought this specifically for a vacation to Hawaii. I knew if I forked over the money for a “toy” like this, I would use it. We get stuck often times recording with our phones, and we get great likely 20 second, targeted clips. I recorded everything I could for a week. I was able to use the features built into the camera to create an excellent video that will remain priceless for our family. It’s easy to use, and built so well. It’s not one of those cameras that has endless amounts of useless accessories. Just a handful that are just as solid as the camera and make it better. I could really go on and on about it, use cases etc. if you’re thinking about it, just do it. You will not regret it. The quality of video is unreal.

This is a perfect camera for riding motorcycles, the battery lasts a decent amount of time, it films the front & back, it gives me a sense of security. It is a great clear picture too. I need to learn all of it's functionality, but I have had mine for 6 months and I would recommend this to anyone considering it. It is very easy to use.

INSTA360 X4 …8k reasons to get it!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Bought this camera and at that time it was the best insta360 camera available, then two weeks later insta360 released the X5. I would consider this more of a vloggers camera than an action camera. Was a little disappointed that it didn’t have some settings that my insta 360 one R has like ‘star’ry’ photo and night photo, but the 8k was so clean looking, and post editing on the app was super simple, of course you need to buy lens covers and also screen protectors and invisible selfie stick etc. but camera was worth the money I paid until I seen what the X5 can do so I will be returning this camera when the newer version comes in on Monday. Hoping that they wave the 15% restocking fee since I am a total Best Buy protection policy holder. Had the sales associate notified me about the upcoming release of the newer version I would have totally waited the two weeks to about the restock fee. I will update after outcome on return/refund.

Capture Every Angle in Stunning Quality

The Insta360 X4 delivers exactly what it promises, offering stunning video quality while capturing everything around you. It excels during the day and performs impressively well at night, making it a versatile option for any time of day.
One thing to note is the importance of keeping the lenses clean, but this is a minor inconvenience for such incredible footage. Battery life averages around 1.5 hours when mixing 5.7K and 8K footage (based on my experience). While this is sufficient for me now, investing in spare batteries is a smart move for extended shoots.
The build quality is solid and hefty—it doesn’t feel cheap in the slightest. With an adapter, you can attach it to various mounts for creative angles, contributing to even more dynamic and exciting footage.
A standout feature is the action camera mode, where it uses a single lens to record, offering flexibility for different shooting styles. Whether you’re capturing scenic rides, thrilling action, or immersive 360 moments, the Insta360 X4 is an excellent investment for anyone who wants to record every single detail.

I absolutely love the Insta360 X4! The 360 capture records everything around me — no angles missed. The app makes it so easy to edit and share videos straight from my phone.
The battery lasts long, it has lens protectors (finally!), and it’s perfect for outdoors. I use it on my paddleboard, in my kayak, and on hikes — and the footage always looks amazing. Total upgrade from the X3!

I bought this as a gift for my brother. He’s been using it on his lamborghini at speeds up to 150+ and it stays on! The footage is surprisingly not shaky either!
