Insta360 X5 Launches with 8K 360° Video and Swappable Lenses
Insta360 has launched its latest flagship camera, the Insta360 X5, priced at $549.99 (around ₹ 45,900). Built for creators who demand top-tier performance, the X5 offers major upgrades in video quality and durability. You can purchase it now from the Insta360 Official Store, Amazon, and select retailers.
Highlights of the Insta360 X5
This next-gen 360° camera is all about elevating content creation. For starters, it can shoot ultra-crisp 8K 360° videos at 30 frames per second. The camera is powered by larger 1/1.28-inch image sensors and a powerful Triple AI Chip system, delivering sharp details and exceptional performance in low-light conditions, thanks in part to its AI-driven PureVideo mode, which enhances night footage by improving dynamic range and reducing noise.
One of its standout features is the introduction of a replaceable lens system—a first in the 360° camera industry. This means users can easily replace damaged lenses without replacing the whole device.
The lenses are crafted from durable, scratch-resistant glass designed to endure daily wear and tear. For extra ease, Insta360 provides a Replacement Lens Kit, allowing quick swaps while you’re out and about.
Insta360 also offers a dedicated Replacement Lens Kit for added convenience on the go.
Upgraded Hardware and Smarter Design
The Insta360 X5 comes packed with thoughtful hardware enhancements. It features a long-lasting battery that delivers up to 185 minutes of use on a single charge, with fast-charging capability that powers it up to 80% in just 20 minutes. Built for adventure, the camera is waterproof up to 49 feet (IP68 rated), making it ideal for underwater shoots and rugged conditions. Audio has also been upgraded with a built-in multi-layer wind guard system for clearer sound even in breezy environments. Plus, the magnetic mounting system makes it easy to attach and switch accessories on the fly.

Alongside the release of the X5, Insta360 has refreshed its mobile app interface, making it more intuitive and user-friendly. One of the standout additions is InstaFrame Mode, which allows creators to capture both a traditional flat video and a full 360° version at the same time—perfect for reframing and repurposing content later. Editing is made easy with options like AI Edit, Quick Edit, and a one-tap dewarp feature for smoothing out distorted footage. For those working on desktops, Insta360 Studio continues to be available, while the Insta360+ cloud platform provides seamless options for instant uploads, cloud-based editing, and automatic backups.
