The only TH-camr that has done a video on this important topic. Love how you spent some minutes on the unicycle just to make people see well. NICE JOB! Thank you.
I’m happy I watched this, my standard lens covers were fitted in store and installed with the blue dots in the 10 o’clock position, so I’ve corrected this, I was just about to order premium covers as I expected them to be better to record through as well as being tougher but after seeing your demonstrations, I will just order some spare standard covers just in case I need them one day. Well done for sharing something different 😊
thought the lens guard would affect the image quality a little, surprisingly it turned out okay! are you filming the first test away from the sun at roughly the same time? Seems like the premium ones deliver the colors more accurately or the sun was just stronger😇 anyways, would also love to know which one is more resistant for scratches and drops.
Oh wow thanks a lot, I added the Premium Lens Guard to my order but after seeing your comparison I'm having second thoughts. I was thinking about using the Premium/Glass ones for trail running where I know they're gonna rub against branches etc, as plastic might show scratches quickly. I didn't expect the Premium ones to underperform optically so poorly tho, their shape and coating are not good enough.
Yes I was a little surprised too. However, my tests were intended to find the worst scenarios. I have been using the glass ones for a couple of days outdoors and I really can't complain about the image quality. I'm in the process of testing how tough they are compared to the plastic ones and I can say I am glad to have the glass ones. I think they are going to last a lot longer than the plastic ones in terms of scuffs and rubs etc.
@@Roos-Reviews your methodology to get observable visual quality differences between each setup was balanced and representative IMO. I'm looking forward to the durability comparison too, although I already have a good idea of what it's gonna show 😆
I got the Premium ones now and I actually prefer them quite a bit over the standard. They definitely don't scratch nearly as easy and quite larger. They feel super durable too. As for image quality it just comes down to how you operate the camera. Going having the sun beside you or behind gives the best results. Keeping them dust free is a must. My Standard ones I actually dropped and it scratched way too easily so I bought premium.
I have the X2 and keep the protector on and will be picking up the X4. This is a fantastic test. The premium were pretty bad. Thanks for the unbiased and straight review.
From what I've seen online, this camera appears to be quite impressive. However, upon reflection, I realize that while I admire its features, I may not utilize it to its full potential as much as I initially anticipated. But great comparison, I think many of 'us' will find it very helpful. Looking at 1:13 It feels like the beginning of something magic is starting.. 😉 Grass look like an ocean / breathing.
The premium ones are significantly better than the regular ones. But for optimal quality you shouldnt point the edges of the lenses in the sun. Otherwise you will get nasty reflections. If the middle of the lenses catch sunlight its no problem.
the image quality looks not bad with the premium lens guard on, I can accept a bit of image quality lost but with better protection for my lens tho and the fact that I barely noticed the image loss on my camera, great review as always!
I feel the same. In most everyday situations the premium lenses look fine. And they are much more scratch resistant than the plastic lenses, so I am using the premium ones, except in low light.
Thanks for this review. I am actually quite confused that the premium ones created so much glare despite having antireflective coating. They may have to improve and adjust this coating a bit - this seems off. I'll keep the standard ones on though. This is such a mind-calmer!
Nice review. The dust at low light does get inside. Did you happen to blow it before shooting? Do you think you'll use Iens protectors in low light scenarios? Cheers
I think that no lens protector looked best in all of your comparisons. And premium looked the worst. For piece of mind against damage, I will go with the standards! Thanks for the review.
Very interesting, thanks so much, great video 👏👏. Maybe I will use the premium protectors for storage and the normal ones for filming. What do you think ? Best greetings from Northern Germany 👋👋
awesome. thanks for demonstrating that there is no discernible difference in video quality using either the standard or premium lens protectors. Nonetheless, got to have microfiber wipes on hand to remove the dust! I opt to get the utility rig instead of the premium protectors now!
Great review Another review had said premium is better if entire lens directly facing sun, and get more artifact if lens at angle to sun.. Guess that applies to standard also but was worse.
Thanks, great comparison video. I upgraded to the X4 for a trip to Europe, forgot to fit my lens guards and yep, dropped the camera while on a bus in London. End result, damaged the front lens. Funny thing is, I have had my X3 for almost 2 years, never used lens guards, never dropped it lol. Oh well, I had travel insurance that is covering the repair.
I had a faulty bike mount snap and drop my 20 hour old X4 onto the asphalt at ~20 mph. It broke a big chunk out out of 1 lens protector and badly scuffed the other, but the camera lens remained perfectly intact. I am concerned that the premium tempered glass protector would have just broken. As result, I am just going to stick with the standard protectors and the expectation that I have to replace them more frequently.
Oh wow the premium lens has way more reflective glare than the standard lens protector that comes stock with the X4. I think ill be sticking with that, ive been doing testing in mine and have found that my videos have not been looking as clean as others in daylight. It seems to have a too soft of an image at Low sharpness but a grainy distorted look at medium sharpness with high sharpness looking way too sharp. This is without the lens protector as well. Its far worse with it on. Im even wondering if mine has a defect and planning on exchanging it for another one.
I have the x4 now for several months. Using standard and original premium lens guards. In backlight conditions the standard has washed out, smudged look around the rim, not the center. Because it isn't possible to keep the premiums clean from dust more than two seconds, it makes worse distractions than the standard protection. Nevertheless there is no alternative for action sports, if you like to keep your lenses damage free. I will try now cheaper lenses from other brands. Avoid direct sunlight is my recommondation.
Good thing is, the Standard are better for impacts and saving the real lens. And swap easy if they get unusable. No fear of glas shrapnel and the overall look is better than the premium. Why they sell the premium? What is the usage?
Thanks for the helpful test!! I already had the Pro in my shopping cart, but now I'm glad to have seen your video and will use the existing ones as long as it fits. Best regards from Austria 😀👍
Thanks for this video! i did one video with the plastic ones that came with the camera and will not be using those ever again but this video makes it look like the premium are not any better. much appreciated. maybe i need to clean up my standards and try again. I also didn't change the setting so that may have been a part of the issue i had.
The benefit of the premium ones is that they are more resistant to scratching and will last longer. But in my experience they produce more glare than the plastic ones.
After breaking my x3 lenses (thank god for insurance) I've just upgraded to the X4 simply for that lens guard, however I was worried about quality but it looks very impressive with just the standard lens guards on. 👍
Great review. I did the same thing with my X3. Dropping it. Not the first time. Another 110usd to fix huhu. For an 'action cam' it is fragile. Good they have made a removable lens protector for the X4. The sticky lens guard was a joke. Hard to line up which made the stitching bad. Not sure if I want to by the X4. It takes a lot to process the clips.
i can say the premium ones might have early production issues as more 3rd parties start making the premium glass protectors, they will tweak the shape and maybe use a different glass. or use a different coating to reduce reflections/glare btw have you tried anti-fog spray for eyeglasses/spectacles on the basic guard. i know its not a perfect seal between the lens and the guard but it should help against fogging. question is.. will it affect the basic guards negatively?
A great comparison review and thanks for taking the time and effort to make the video and a BIG thumbs 👍up. Most reviews that I've seen about the 2 types of lens protectors say the same as yourself, stick to the standard ones. Cheers
Thumbs up just cause I learned it mattered which way the blue dot was facing lol. thanks for the comparison I think I'll save 30 $ and run standard for awhile.
SUPER useful video. Good comparison and conclusion. I agree with your decision and will also keep the standard ones. Thanks for the "clear" comparison!!😊
I just bought a pair of glass ones from a 3rd party manufacturer on Amazon. Saved $5, but they have all the same issues. Plus, these 3rd party ones don't have the serrated edges, so putting them on and taking them off is almost impossible without the special tool they included. I definitely preferred the plastic ones, so I think I'll be going back to those. I just wish someone would make a lens guard case so I have somewhere to put all of these spare lens guards.
I want to use the X4 for moto vlogging. Would you recommend going premium for that? Because I suppose without a lens guard, it's easy for a stone to hit the lens, right?
@@Roos-Reviews I drop my X3 with the protector while hiking, and the protector broke with scratches on the lens. I am curious how do the new X4 with the different lens protector perform
just bought my Insta360 X4 and used the lens protector. We used it at a water park, but some water got inside and there's moisture inside the lens. What should I do? I'm sure I placed the lens properly.
Nice review! Sorry about your mishap! Apparently, lens replacement is expensive. I wish they'd get their heads out of their asses on this and install replaceable lenses. Ben Claremont has the same opinion; standard protectors are better than "premium".
It is difficult because there is some static charge on the coatings. I washed mine with dish soap and distilled water and then used a little air puffer to try to remove any remnants of dust but within a short time dust in the air was attracted to it.
Do you have any feedback about how they perform in water? I for example, used the x3 and ONE R in rivers and their protectors have been very disappointing because of fog, water leakage and large impact on image quality even when fresh. Thanks
Thanks for your video. But, I ask myself about your test. We can see in some shot that your lense protection are very durty / not clean. Durty lense have a big impact on the glare… From my point of view it’s difficult to make a big conclusion with your test (between basic or prenium lense guard). Without lense, for sur the quality is great (with clean lense). Maybe the prenium lense are more sensitive to finger dirt 🤔
I bought the lens protectors for my X3. Ghosting/reflections were terrible and constantly filling up with condensation. So image quality was poor. Of course when I took the covers off, I then dropped the bloody thing a d scratched the lens so can only use the front camera as the back is scratched.
It's funny how that works. I used the X4 everyday for 2 weeks doing more risky stuff like skateboarding, unicycling, biking, running after my dog, exploring the city etc. But when standing still just trying to get an image of the camera for a thumbnail that's when I dropped it and wrecked the lens.
do test again but select the differnt lens settings in camera. Example no lense protector but select the plastic lense settings to see the effects and so on. do for all settings and lenses. no lense with plastic setting and premium setting. then with plastic protector on then no lense setting you get it right.

Great review! Finally :)
But I see a much bigger problem with the premium ones. You can see the reflection of the lens in some conditions.
Wow. You are so thorough. I get the feeling that only time will tell whether the premiums possible longevity will make them the better buy.
I plan to time travel by "generously applying friction" to both in my next video.

How did you remove small points, scratches, dirty? I have premium but i see there some those points
It is difficult because there is some static charge on the coatings. I washed mine with dish soap and distilled water and then used a little air puffer to try to remove any remnants of dust but within a short time dust in the air was attracted to it.

But, I ask myself about your test. We can see in some shot that your lense protection are very durty / not clean. Durty lense have a big impact on the glare…
From my point of view it’s difficult to make a big conclusion with your test (between basic or prenium lense guard). Without lense, for sur the quality is great (with clean lense).
Maybe the prenium lense are more sensitive to finger dirt 🤔
The protectors were cleaned right before the test, but they attract dust quickly.
