Key specs at a glance

Figures come from Insta360's published specifications and reviewers. Battery times vary with settings. Ask our team to confirm what comes with the unit you order.

What a 360 camera does

A 360 camera records everything around it at once. Instead of pointing the camera at a subject, you capture the whole scene and choose the angle afterwards in the Insta360 app or on your computer. That's why creators use them: you can't miss the shot, and one recording gives you several different videos. The camera also hides the selfie stick it's mounted on, which creates the "floating camera" drone-style look.

What's new in the X5

Bigger sensors. The X5 moves to 1/1.28-inch sensors, which gather more light. Reviewers describe cleaner footage in low light than on the X4.

InstaFrame. The X5 can record a ready-to-share flat video and a full 360 video at the same time. You can post the flat clip straight away and reframe the 360 version later.

PureVideo. A low-light mode that uses AI to reduce noise at night.

Better battery. About 37% more recording time than the X4 in the same conditions, and faster charging.

Deeper waterproofing. 15 m without a case, 50% deeper than the X4.

Replaceable lenses. If you scratch a lens, you can swap it, which is useful for a camera that gets rough treatment.

Who the Insta360 X5 is for

Content creators who want the highest-quality 360 footage Insta360 makes.

Travel, motorbike and outdoor filmmakers who need to capture everything without pointing the camera.

Anyone who wants a drone-style shot without a drone.

Insta360 X5 vs X4 vs X4 Air

The X4 and X4 Air, also in our range, cost less. The X5 is the best for low-light and image quality. If your budget is tight and you mostly shoot in daylight, compare the X4 Air. Message us and we'll recommend one for how you shoot.

Storage and accessories

360 footage uses a lot of storage. We also stock SanDisk memory cards, so ask us which card suits your recording mode.
