5.0 out of 5 starsThe BEST (AND MOST STABLE) 360 CAMERA I'VE EVER HAD
Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2018
We are in an era where portability and quality are a must. Where phones are shooting 4k and big cameras are becoming a bit obsolete. Where small products must meet high standards and keep up with the world. Insta360 One is one of those. What an amazing camera.
Physical features: Super Portable and the most stable 360 camera I've ever tried. Fits in every single pocket and the shape shows minimum bulk. all of this happens while th device is being protected by its case. Additionally, with an SD slot you are able to increase the camera's from 8gb (included) up. I've tried a 128gb and it worked! Additionally, the buttons are easy to press, well placed and the direct connection to the phone is actually part of the camera eliminating the need of additional cables With a +70 minute of straight shooting battery life, it's way more than enough to get a full day of cool shots!
Quality: 4k is King and this company understands that by packing it. With a 4k @30fps, you get that nice and up-to-par quality and for your slow motion desires, you can go down to 60FPS at 2.7k and at 2k up to 120FPS! That my friends is a lot of fun to play with. Slow mo FTW! When we are talking about stills, you'll get 24MP on each picture which ensures lots of details on every single picture
App: The app gets lots of updates and they get better and better. The buttons are big and the app is easy to navigate. All the edits can be made in there as well and it's pretty simple to do. (you can also do it on a computer FYI) You can also see other's work, talk to them and get inspired as well. It has a whole micro-universe that if you're new to the 360 world, it becomes a great community guide!
Accessories: Want to snowboard and film it, you got it! Gopro mounts compatibility? DONE! Have a drone and want to do 360? It is available. My point is that this is such a versatile camera that fits plenty of different POVs (and mounts) you'd like to shoot. Even an underwater one.
Social Media integration: The app and the camera are able to live stream to social platforms on-the-go, which all of this works by plugging your camera into the phone via the charging port and lets you stream smooth and high quality footage. It was a pretty cool experience that viewers and friends were able to fully interact with.
Overall this was a great camera to get one-of-a-kind type of footage that allows you to tell your story in plenty different ways. A must for creators, aficionados and travelers. The simplicity of such a well rounded camera is what made me gravitate to it and I can say that I'm happy I did!
