I finally opened up the package and tried to get the camera to work, downloaded the firmware and installed it, cannot get past the language screen and the message to install the app to activate the camera. I install the app on my phone. the camera password does not work, I can watch a tutorial on my phone on how to use the camera, but I cannot use the camera. It want the app. I have the app, the wifi is connected and all I get is a message to install the app to start the camera.

NOTHING WORKS.

When people were sane, you bought a product, opened it up, turned it on and it worked.

In reply to Derek. Hi Derek. In my review I specifically said there is more color noise in low contrast areas, but also more detail, which is an acceptable tradeoff. I completely disagree that One X has better image quality than X4. X4 image quality is vastly superior to One X.

I’m an X1 user, and have a X4 for a couple weeks now. I use it mainly for photos, with some videos.

Disappointingly the image quality of the X4 is not as good as from the X1. I have sent Insta samples but no response.

The higher resolution of the X4 in slightly bigger sensor means that in INSP format the X4 images are very noisy. When PureShot is used, the AI removes the noise but also detail, and introduces its own artefacts in the process.

How come you didn’t see this in your tests?

Samples on the X3 and X4 Facebook group.

Hi Mic,
did you use the standard protection covers during recording for your test or did you compare it without it? I read a bit about , that it reduce the IQ noteable. what is your conclusion?

Hi Mic. The X4 has been around a few months now, but I cannot find any decent samples of the photos comparing the X4 to earlier models. I have an X2, and have always been underwhelmed by the photo quality, even more so when trying to use the HDR options. Will the X4 produce any better results? I also note that all the early reviews were done in spectacularly sunny locations. It’s as if Insta360 gave folks the X4 to review and stipulated it must be done in blazing sunshine. Even the usual UK based reviewers, all went on sunny holidays to do their first reviews. And this could be why I’ve been disappointed so far, because I have mostly used the X2 for photos in gloomy London and overcast England 🙂

In reply to Jim Walsh. I was delivered yesterday. Luckily I opened the door and saw the Fed Ex truck before it drove off. A sticker had been put on my door indicating a failed delivery, funny, there was no knock. Two weeks from order to delivery. I ordered the Sony FX30 and got it the next day. Dealing with Fed Ex was a real turn off. I recommend using a reseller.
