Insta360 Launches X5: A Breakthrough 8K 360 Degree Camera for Adventure Filmmakers
Insta360 has officially launched the X5, its newest flagship 360 degree camera that raises the bar for immersive filmmaking. With advanced imaging, rugged durability, and intelligent AI features, the X5 is built to deliver exceptional performance in any environment.
Priced at 549.99 US dollars, approximately 54,990 Indian rupees, the X5 is now available worldwide through the Insta360 online store, Amazon, and selected retail partners.
Key Features and Innovations
The Insta360 X5 supports 8K video recording at 30 frames per second using dual one over one point two eight inch sensors. These sensors are significantly larger than those found in the previous X4 model, capturing more light and delivering sharper, brighter visuals even in low-light settings.
Powered by a Triple AI Chip system, which includes a five nanometer AI processor and two dedicated imaging chips, the X5 produces clear, high-quality footage with reduced noise and minimal compression artifacts.
One standout feature of the X5 is its replaceable lens system. This marks a first in the Insta360 product line and allows users to quickly replace damaged lenses in the field. The lenses themselves are made of ultra-strong Gorilla Glass, and the camera is waterproof up to fifteen meters, or forty-nine feet. With an extended battery life of around three hours, the X5 is ideal for extended shooting sessions during travel, sports, or outdoor adventures.
Advanced AI and Imaging Modes
The X5 introduces PureVideo mode, an AI-optimized low-light setting that enables users to capture cinematic footage in dark or challenging lighting conditions. This makes it a strong choice for night scenes, concerts, or sunset landscapes.
Other enhancements include a built-in wind guard for clearer audio, InstaFrame mode that automatically captures both a full 360 degree recording and a flat ready-to-share version of the same scene, and a magnetic mounting system that enables fast attachment of accessories without tools.
Global Availability and Offers
The Insta360 X5 is available at a base price of 549.99 US dollars. For users seeking more value, the Essentials Bundle includes additional batteries and accessories at a higher price point.
In India, the X5 is sold through Amazon India and the official Insta360 website. As part of the product launch, customers also receive a six-month subscription to Insta360 Plus with 200 gigabytes of free cloud storage, allowing for easier backup and faster editing through the Insta360 mobile app.
To celebrate the launch, Insta360 organized community events including an interactive pop-up in New York City. Visitors were invited to experience the X5 firsthand and explore its capabilities through live demos.
Built for Adventure Creators
The Insta360 X5 is tailored for content creators who need top-tier image quality, reliability, and creative flexibility in extreme environments. Whether shooting underwater, on mountain trails, or during fast-paced action, the X5 offers unmatched versatility.
With its next-generation sensor technology, AI processing, and rugged build, the X5 is positioned as a powerful companion for anyone looking to document life’s most memorable moments with clarity and creativity.
