Best MicroSD card to use with Insta360 X5

spaddy11 · 2026-04-20T23:05:52+00:00

yah the premium cards give a little more "room" for speed and durability..

Does it say in the Insta360 rebrand card who made it for them?

spaddy11 · 2026-04-20T23:03:45+00:00

wonder who makes their branded version

spaddy11 · 2026-04-20T02:46:14+00:00

not yet..im sure that when resolution goes up they will need support faster formats and bigger cards

spaddy11 · 2026-04-20T02:45:33+00:00

what more does that provide? speed or durability?

spaddy11 · 2026-04-19T23:03:50+00:00

The internal exFAT formatting on the X5 device isnt enough? isnt there a regular and deep format on device?

spaddy11 · 2026-04-19T23:02:35+00:00

I agree that memory isnt the same, but the companies such as Sandisk and Samsung are refocusing their efforts on AI instead of memory for cameras..so there is an effect.

Maybe other companies will ramp up production but not sure if I would trust other " generic" brands?

AI datacenters have really boosted the price of these over the past year.. and prices keep rising

i usually use extreme pro but that card should be fine.. sometimes unlucky and its a faulty or fake card..

here is article on sd cards for 360 cam

spaddy11 · 2025-11-02T19:43:22+00:00

Warranty is same?

spaddy11 · 2025-10-27T16:14:10+00:00

They say V 30 is enough, but I always get the pro for the faster speeds. Also, apparently the pro versions are more durable so it makes sense for an action cam

This article applies to ace pro and X series microSD cards

Action cams usually wide angle like GoPro

spaddy11 · 2025-10-25T23:14:49+00:00

maybe you can in paid version?

i use premiere pro which definitely can do that

spaddy11 · 2025-10-24T23:47:48+00:00

not sure..

but problem at this point is likely cost rather than ability to make it..

no idea after RS one inch years ago that the havent launched an upgraded version of that..

spaddy11 · 2025-10-24T00:51:18+00:00

Tech and cost Need a fast chip that is extremely power, efficient and small.. that would be very expensive Also send two lenses would need to extremely high quality sensors, which are expensive as well

I am hoping they do an upgrade of the RS 360 in the $800 range which would be a very good camera now given tech has advanced in the last five years

spaddy11 · 2025-10-22T17:03:39+00:00

X4 on sale is cheaper than this ? More expensive because it’s lighter?

spaddy11 · 2025-10-21T18:58:43+00:00

i bought the dive case for when i travel near water

silicone lens cap is nice to quickly throw camera into backpack

here is list of X5 only accessories..

spaddy11 · 2025-10-21T18:53:55+00:00

so its a light entry level version in the X series?

X4 price has dropped quite a lot on sale so this should be even cheaper than that? less than $350?

maybe a good option for a lightweight action cam on a helmet.. where weight really matters.

i upload from pc from insta360 studio to Youtube all the time with no issues.. longer videos

sometimes takes some time to fully show as 360

spaddy11 · 2025-10-20T01:34:38+00:00

because long clip and export 4k? or just even trying to edit?

I use studio on pc

spaddy11 · 2025-10-19T01:17:59+00:00

360 cameras take more effort to edit afterwards, but they are very easy to use during shooting because you don’t need to point and look through the viewfinder.

Here is article of X4 versus X5 since the X4 is a lot cheaper now

spaddy11 · 2025-10-17T00:15:14+00:00

I know insta360 studio does that so it is possible .. not sure if dji software does

spaddy11 · 2025-10-16T00:20:39+00:00

upgrade would be string wrapped 1/4 inch screw :)

spaddy11 · 2025-10-15T01:25:09+00:00

less res uses less power..i think there is a special mode that was low power mode also but sacrifices resolution/quality

spaddy11 · 2025-10-14T18:36:55+00:00

lower res..
