TL;DR — The Insta360 Ace Pro offers great specs, good image quality, and meh user experience. Is it the right action cam for you?
The Insta360 Ace Pro might be one of the best action cameras on paper, but after using it for several months I still have a hard time recommending it to most people. In this video, I dive into the pros and cons of this camera to help you decide whether or not it's the right camera for you.
*Insta360 did send me this camera for free but didn't require me to make a video and definitely didn't see this video before I published it

I don't think you understand why the 8k resolution is important and a benefit. 8k footage gives you the ability in post to pan horizontally, vertically, zoom in, and reframe. Very much like a insta360 X4, except you have a lot more flexibility with that camera in that you can choose to reframe in a 360 degree sphere. You will not be rendering out at 8k, just like the X4, you'll be lucky to get 4k, 2.7k, or even 1080p if you want to go really crazy with the reframing. So the benefit of the 8k is flexibility in post. And with that flexibility you can be very creative when you edit your videos. I own an X4 and while it is not the perfect camera, if there ever was a perfect camera, it's workflow of reframing is a game changer. I recently filmed an ice skating friend while I ice skated backwards using my X4, I had to watch her, the camera screen, and use my peripheral vision to make sure I didn't skate backwards over some poor unsuspecting person of the public. I couldn't always keep my subject in frame, with the X4 it's not really required anyway as your capturing everything, but in post it is very easy to reframe to get the subject back to where you want them. It has always bugged me how the advertise the X4 as being 8K as the videos you produce from the X4 won't be anywhere near that resolution. Technically correct but very misleading.
To each his own, but seems this like a pretty pessimistic review...as if there is some bias present. For me personally, I like this camera for the exact reasons that you do not.
Question … with the new magnetic quick mount mounting system. If I’m dirt biking and fall off the bike and onto the ground … would it stay mounted or would the magnetic click section let lose and the camera would then go flying off somewhere?
I got my ace pro a few weeks ago. Been messing with it a little bit. I have no experience with other cameras. This is my first action camera. I like it. It takes some getting used to for myself, having zero experience with cameras. I got it for work. I’m an interior painter. So I’d like to use the Ai feature and other features to showcase my work. I just got the tri pod stick and I love it. I hated just holding the camera in my hand. I like it.
These are going on sale at BH.... but waiting to see what GoPro 13 Black has to offer first!
Your pros also sounded like cons. It can't really be that bad??? I've just ordered one...going to go diving in the Red Sea next month. Really hoping to capture some really kickass footages underwater with the underwater case on.
Also, I noticed you compared the camera to a smartphone a couple of times when listing lack of features or limitations. I don't think that's a fair comparison at all...just saying.
Thanks for the video though. Made me more confident that it's a right action camera for me ;)
The fact that you Think that the GP12 is the best action camera says a lot 😂
i can see if you are used to a gopro you would like it better but all your cons are where gopro fails . personly i like the quick mount insted of gopro i dont have to crank down on stupid wing nuts to imposible tightness so the camera is stable and does not move !! reselution and uploading at higher bit rates makes for better images and videos. i have never had my acepro over heat and lose footage that can not be said for a go pro 10, 11 12 or 13
THANK YOU! I have a GoPro 12 and I love it, but I’ve had envy for this camera. I think I’ll keep my GoPro 12 (which is amazing except in bad lighting). I am gonna look into the Osmo Pocket 3. I think that and the go pro would make a killer combo. I would love your thoughts on that.
Nice video bro! I'm trying to hold out for the DJI Action 5. I do have an Insta 360 X4 and love it for what it does.
nice vid, thank you!!!
i dont like the sound from dji mic 2 connected to Ace Pro. If i compare it to how it sounds with native DJI Cams, those are much better.
Bro, so the gopro 12 is overheating, isn't it?
Hello brother, how is the insta 360 ace camera?
Good video man. Keep it up!
Nah, all your cont just childish
heating issues?

Totally wrong. Insta 360 is the best Action Cam at all and GoPro 12 the worst for hundreds of reasons. Trash video.
