The company's apps have always been clunky and buggy, but boy do they have enough features to make your head spin! My favorite, the Shot Lab, which I had a lot of fun with on the One R, lets you transform simple videos into cinematic effects like the Dolly Zoom and Clone Trail with a tap of a button. The One X2 will also benefit from Insta360's app, which is one of the most exhaustive, but also most infuriating image/video editing experiences on Android.

Like the One R, it also offers voice controls, and can be paired with AirPods (or in my experience any Bluetooth buds) for better sound recording if you plan to walk away from the cam or shoot in noisy environments. Four mics allow it to record ambisonic immersive audio, or stereo audio with wind reduction. On top of these, the camera still offers plenty of enhancements for image quality (PureShot for better HDR, Night Shot, AquaVision for underwater snaps) and capture frequency or style (burst, timelapse, hyperlapse, interval). MultiView: records video while showing both front and back angles at once, perfect for vloggers and creators. InstaPano (6.2MP): takes a panorama pic without you having to move or rotate the camera. Steady Cam mode (up to 2K 50fps): lets you shoot with only one of ultra-wide lenses, resulting in videos that don't need prior stitching or re-formatting.

Regular 360 mode for photos (up to 18MP) and videos (3K 100fps up to 5.7K 30fps): excellent stabilization, person/object tracking, drone-like invisible selfie stick effect, and AI editing that recommends the best moments and angles of any pic or video so you don't have to go hunting for them. With the X2, Insta360 is implementing plenty of features I've always wanted from its 360 cams, starting with four different capture modes: The improvements don't stop at the hardware level.
