Insta360 X4

The Insta360 X4 is a cutting-edge 8K 360 ° action camera equipped with a powerful 5 nm AI chip, allowing you to shoot crisp panoramic video (8K30fps, 5.7K60fps, 4K100fps) while also offering a single-lens mode for 4K60fps wide-angle footage.

Why this product is helpful

• Super-high resolution & reframing flexibility: capture immersive 360 ° footage and later reframe any angle without losing quality.
• Long battery run time: offers around 135 minutes of continuous shooting at 5.7K30fps in lab conditions, reducing the need for frequent battery swaps.
• Robust design & intuitive controls: features a 2.5" touchscreen protected by Corning ® Gorilla ® Glass, compact body (123.6 × 46 × 26.3 mm without lenses) and weighs ~203 g.
• Smart charging & thermal management: supports USB-C PD fast charging, reaching ~80% in ~26 minutes, and has temperature regulation options (e.g. using a Thermo Grip Cover) when shooting high-resolution video.
• Flexible shooting modes & protective lens guards: switch between 360 ° and single-lens modes, and attach lens guards for extra protection—automatically enabled stitching modes adapt accordingly.

Classroom Ideas

• Immersive Exposés & Virtual Field Trips
  Students can film 360 ° tours of the school, neighbourhood, or local landmarks. Later, they reframe key views to create narrated virtual tours for classmates or parents.
• Media and Film Projects
  Use the X4 in filmmaking assignments: record first-person action in 360 °, then have students choose perspective edits during post-production to tell different stories.
• Science & Environmental Observation
  In fieldwork (biology, geography, ecology), students can walk transects while filming surroundings, capturing immersive visual data of habitats, plant communities or landforms.
• Technology & AI Lessons
  Analyse how the 5 nm AI chip processes imagery. Compare standard video vs. reframed 360 ° footage, discussing data rates, compression, and computational imagery.
• Drama / Performance Arts
  Film student performances in 360 °, so that audiences can later “look around” the stage or environment. Students experiment with staging, camera placement, and narrative immersion.
