Insta360 has launched the Insta360 X5 Action camera in India. Insta360 X5 has a larger 1/1.28″ sensors and a Triple AI Chip system, which Insta360 states results in enhanced image quality across various resolutions, including 8 K30fps 360° video.
A new AI-powered low-light mode called PureVideo aims to deliver clearer footage in challenging lighting conditions. Durability is a key aspect of the X5, featuring lenses constructed from a new, damage-resistant glass. A replaceable lens system has been implemented, allowing users to exchange damaged lenses. Additional hardware upgrades include an integrated wind guard, an extended battery life of up to three hours, and waterproofing to a depth of 49 feet (15 meters).
Insta360 X5 introduces InstaFrame Mode, which simultaneously captures a reframed flat video for immediate sharing and a full 360° video for later editing. The Insta360 app has been updated with more intuitive editing tools, and the camera is compatible with the Insta360+ cloud service for sharing and cloud-based editing. The new 4-mic array includes an advanced Wind Guard that reduces wind interference and hones in on voices—ideal for vlogs, narration, and action scenes alike.
According to Insta360, the 8K30fps 360° video benefits from 11K supersampling, aiming to minimize quality loss. The 2400mAh battery supports up to 185 minutes of recording in 5.7K using Endurance Mode and can be fast-charged to 80% in 20 minutes.
The camera features IP68 waterproofing to 49ft (15m) and a magnetic mounting system for quick accessory changes. It also retains FlowState Stabilization and 360° Horizon Lock for stable footage. New shooting options include Twist to Shoot, Voice Control 2.0, Gesture Control, and wireless remote pairing.
