Thanks for the video well done, I've just brought the x4 which for me is a significant upgrade from the x2, I held off buying the x3 which I think was the right choice for me, haven't really had a chance to use the x4 much yet for my motorcycle videos but looking forward to it. I like that you were able to show the comparison of all three cameras which shows that the older x2 will still have it's place for filming my adventures. Thanks again all the best
Thanks a lot, Andre. I'm still on a budget camera budget and now you have me contemplating a 360 cam. Not fair, bro, not fair! Anyway, your reviews are on point as always, thanks
I sometimes wonder if I should be a channel member and you remind me with videos like this that, yes. I should. We agree most of the time as we do here. But you do the comparison that I don’t have the patience to do. I haven’t seen any heating issues but I’m usually moving and less color shift as well. The sound quality is the real major point over the X3. I’m still buying the coolaid or coffee in this case. 😂
Haha 😆 Maybe it's just mine that has this color shifting from a warm color to cold blue at times. Yes when the X4 is moving with wind hitting it, it does not overheat, but stationary is another story, but then again, it's a lot of processing power required for 8K and that alone generates heat.
@@WORTHITORNOT action cameras are usually moving aren’t they by definition? 😉 8k isn’t necessary and hardly used but it does make the edited video look better at the finished 4K. I like the 360 format simply because you have multiple views from the one camera. As almost always we agreed that to bump to the 4 is not required. Keep up these detailed reviews- I’ll let you know about the Go 3s. It arrived today
Great review and comparison of the X4 and two most recent models that came before. I just recently upgraded from the X2, and I can see a big difference in the quality of the video and pictures. And I love that large and bright screen to change settings on the fly. The only downside in the increase in size, and price. I have no interest in shooting 360 video in low light, so that's not a consideration for me. Thanks for sharing, and I looking forward to more X4 content on your channel.
They nailed the audio, the heftier weight makes it a better self defense tool. Still don't need 360 but it's slowly getting tempting, your fault buddy :D
X4 low light video was more stable ,whereas, the X3 was wobbling about. I'm also surprised that the noise wasn't as noticeable on either. Did you have either camera set to an ISO range maxed out at 400 or 800? I tried doing a low light test with the X3 in LOG and Pocket 3 in D-Log M both in 4k30...and the X3 video was super noisy.
Thanks, the SRT-8 Challenger is my "hotrod" to keep the adrenaline flowing 😎 Yeah these 360 cameras are not meant for low light but everyone wants to see a low light test with all these cameras hence why I do them. I would love to review the Go 3S, hopefully Insta360 sends me one to test out.
For my old eyes, the only really noticable improvements are better dynamic range and stabilization. Better sound quality as well. But if you already have an X3, maybe there's no need to upgrade?
Really interested in getting the X4 for Car shots. Do you have a recommendation of a mounting option for it that will handle highway speeds without worrying about it falling off?
In this clip I was using the SNAP mount with the X4 just attached to the 1/4-20 as I didn't feel comfortable with it also holding the invisible selfie stick. I'm looking at a few 3 suction cup designs and will do a video when I find one that I feel comfortable recommending.
Hello. I want to buy a police-grade camera body. It should have image stabilization, night vision, high resolution, and long battery life. Can you give me any suggestions?
WTF? Get out of here with that nonsense ! Obviously you DIDN'T watch the video at 1:55 I mention that it's not a paid sponsorship, but since I did receive the item for review, I checked the "Sponsorship" box as required by law. Do better !

I agree about the color / temperature change in 8K. Interesting you’re the only one that talked about that. No need to upgrade from the X3.
Insta360 is really good about firmware updates, so I'm sure they will get it sorted out but needed to mention it as that's why I found in my testing.

Thanks for the kind words and for watching and commenting !
The end is awsome! :)
Haha, I can always count on you to watch the entire video. Thanks Kevin !
This looks really good and I always appreciate your no nonsense honesty about these products
Thanks Jason !

Oh nice, please do as another friend of mine got his and the video he sent me looks really good !

Thanks so much Ronald for your input and comment, yes the price is getting steep for a lot of new tech. There will be much more coming very soon 😉
I think that X4 has more warm tone in low light situation.

Self defense? 😆 I never thought of that, okay, I'll take that away as a Con 😎
That voice!
Thank you

To me the X3 still looks great, I like the sound of your car. The low light was bad on both cameras. Are you going to review the Go3s?

Hey Brian, yeah if someone already has the X3 and don't really need/want the 8K, then no real reason to upgrade.

@@quannguyen9331 look up body cameras on my channel
Low light - X3 - Is the 8k that much better for those short videos. 8k Vs 4k
Yes the 8K is better over the 5.7K for sure, a lot more detail and allows better cropping without loss of image quality
Without battery on Powebank probably wont overheat.
It still overheats in 8k unless there is a lot of wind/air movement.
X3 colors look more natural. X4 colors seem so fake! Hopefully a firmware update comes out and fixes the X4.
I’m sure they will, Insta360 is good about releasing firmware updates
No Apple Watch support or any Bluetooth remote other than their expensive GPS preview. This is not good
Your hand on the X4 in low light looked Homer Simpson hand, yellow/orange. Awful colours.
That was the Trump filter
The X4 needs some firmware work on the color/exposure for sure, or I have Jaundice 😆
Ehh another paid sponsored shill for insta

@@WORTHITORNOT Ignore the haters, they create nothing and just complain
before i watch this, I'm going to say that its a gimmick and not worthy. If you want to get a camera. Get the DJI
