Insta360 ONE review: the best 360 ° camera on the market?

The first time I picked up Insta360 ONE I made a fundamental mistake: I assumed it was the same as all other 360 ° photo / video cameras. In fact, to distinguish it from the competition a complete, intuitive software designed to make truly unique movies.

But before explaining what you can do with the application, let's take a step back.


Insta360 ONE: how is it made?

Insta360 ONE is characterized by an elongated body, a comfortable button and a connector that can be Lightning, microUSB e USB Type-C, necessary to connect the camera to a smartphone or tablet. Don't worry, to take photos and record videos you don't need to connect it to any device. In fact, the application - which can also be used in Bluetooth - is only used to download, edit and share what has been done previously.



On board this Insta360 ONE we find then due sensor da 24 megapixel, designed to achieve filmati in 4K a 30 fps on in Full HD a 60 fps. But don't be fooled by the numbers: we are talking about a spherical video so you understand that the final quality will not be the same as a traditional flat 4K.

Finally, I would like to point out the 820 mAh battery, rechargeable via microUSB and capable of guaranteeing about 70 minutes of autonomy.

Not just 360 °

What makes the difference between this product and other 360 ° cameras is undoubtedly the software. In fact, the application - which we tested on an iPad Air 2 - is particularly complete and intuitive, designed to edit your photos and clips in seconds.



But what can you actually do? Actually a lot of things. Let's start from photo, that you can edit so as to emulate a small planet, modify using filters and the beauty effect, enrich with stickers or cut to create traditional snapshots.


With videos you can have even more fun, especially since you are absolutely not bound by the format. On the contrary, the application allows you to obtain a normal Full HD video that exploits the potential of the two sensors. This means that it will be possible define the camera movements, change the amplitude of the recovery and even ask the software to follow a specific person. In short, with a few taps you can become a real recorder and make the movie of your dreams.



All this of course you can then share it with the community, but also on Facebook and YouTube. Once the camera is connected to your smartphone, you can even start live streaming on one of the two platforms.

Insta360 ONE is available on the market at 359 € in 3 versions, one for iOS with lightning connector and two for Android with microUSB and USB Type-C variants.
