Both cameras provided by DJI and Insta360.
Video sponsored by: Insta360

Both the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 and the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro are excellent cameras that have had some fantastic improvements over their previous generations. I made this video for you to see how they perform in various situations, daytime, interiors, water, low light, extreme low light, stabilisation, it's all there for you to decide for yourself.

NOTES: Shaking in the trees at around 6:28 is from BETA firmware, that does NOT occur in the launch firmware. All audio unless stated is from the Insta360 Ace Pro 2. (stuff I forgot to mention in my video, sorry)

I see a lot of people complaining about the post processing look of the ace pro2. I honestly think it's a plus for someone like me who pretty much just uploads footage straight from the camera and it doesn't look too strong to the point of looking bad.

This is the most accurate video comparison, ill go with the Ace Pro 2, you can turn off the HDR Mode if you want some natural look. the only advantage i see is the Action 5 is a 10 bit color. Ace Pro 2 Wins for me, Thanks a lot!

idk, people admit ace pro 2 is better than osmo action 5, I think insta360 has done the best in low light, stabilization, dynamic range, zoom. Action cameras don't need color grading. just record, edit a little footage, and post. If the Ace Pro 2 has 10bit specifications, how devastating will the Osmo Action 5 be. i have sony zv e10, yup 8 bit, but my footage is better when i want to do something. thank you for the best review comparation, Philip. you are the best ! keep doing🔥

To me, the AcePro2 is the clear winner in low light. I have the Action 3 and considering to upgrade to the A5 because of the "smearing" in low light (see 18:03) for the A5 but to a lower level than A3 i'll admit) . I see it in the A5 but not present in the AP2.

So far this is the best review I've been watching comparing these both amazing action cam. Honestly, I like DJI Action 5 pro but Insta360 Ace Pro 2 is really good in terms of low light and the big advantage is the flip screen.

*This is the best comparison between the two cameras on YouTube.*
*I was unsure which one to purchase and all the points covered helped me in my decision.*

*A big hug from Brazil, keep doing this great work.*

in many years this is probably the only useful review of an action cam i've ever sees, just because of the length and the simple, coherent way it's made. kudos

I guess this video provides the most accurate and most information that people might want to know, along with actual tests. Thanks a lot. It helps me decide which device to buy.

very good comparison. Thanks. finally someone who films without constant cuts, so that the eye can actually see any unpleasant moments in the files.

I love this release of the Ace Pro 2. Tempted to get it especially for the enhanced PureVideo as I already own the AP1.

What i don't understand however get is the number of folks that really just want to rail against another brand. I get it you love your camera and the features it has. It works in your workflow. The 8-bit vs 10-bit argument is getting tiring and quite frankly sad at this point. If 10-bit is so important to you, stick to GoPro or DJI and save the rest of us from hearing that argument all the time. For people like me who don't want to spend hours color grading footage are quite happy with the stuff that come out of the camera, save the minor tweaks, the AP1 and AP2 is absolutely ideal.

The AP5 has strengths over the AP2 and vice versa. Use what works for you and your personal workflow. The brand bashing is just childish...

Great review! First video of yours that I see. Subscribed! Other than during your audio tests, how did you record the audio for the rest of a video? The 1 place I see the Action 5 Pro winning is its native connection to the DJI Mic 2. Overall though, the Ace Pro 2 is the clear winner!

Can't imagine the amount of work you put into this Philip so thank you kindly. Ace Pro 2 definitely wins the low light comparison hands down without a doubt. That being said, it looks a bit over sharpened even with HDR off while the Action 5 Pro looks more natural. The main advantage of the Action 5 Pro very few reviewers mention or will ever mention is the support for 2x wireless bluetooth mics for vlogging either with a friend or as couples while keeping the camera waterproof and weatherproof. I can't do without this in my scenario unfortunately as much as I love the new Ace Pro 2.

Never seen an 8k shot before, Ace pro 2 did impress me a lot. For small action cameras like this, the image quality is beyond my imagination. Cool tech.

I still prefer Action 5 Pro against Ace Pro 2. It is cheaper, has built in memory, small size and has front/rear screen. Thanks for the side-2-side comparison. I already have Ace Pro 1 and Action 5 Pro, really don't see a point to upgrade to Ace Pro 2.

Phillip, I just want to say that you are a really honest and genuine reviewer. I like that you don’t throw either camera under the bus, and you just give a very real and honest review. I love my DJI action 5 and I’m probably gonna get an Ace pro 2. No doubt, both really good cameras and both doing a great job.

I appreciate the fact that you aren’t shilling for one or the other. You are just telling it like it is!

I’m saving up for the Ace Pro 2, and it will happily join my Action 5 (and my GoPro 12 which I still get a lot of enjoyment out of). Thank you for being such a fair and generous reviewer. You’re the best! Always look forward to your reviews!

Not sure why but feel like Action 5 pro perform better in lot of scenarios like underwater, polish soup, every scene when sun behind you and etc....was waiting for the Ace 2 pro for so long and I think I am going for the Action 5 pro. Thanks a lot for putting these together!!

What still doesn't convince me about Ace Pro 2 (and 1) is the strong image processing. Even on minimal settings the image is too sharp and looks very unnatural. Dlog mode in Action 5 does a great job. Unfortunately, these are now less and less "sports" cameras. For typical vlogging applications, the best for me remains Pocket 3. As for HDR mode in Ace pro 2 and 1, it is also not an HLG image like in Action 5. HLG is normally detected as HDR by any TV with this function.

That was a really comprehensive and useful look at both cameras. What I will never understand in the comments is why so many people find the low light capabilities of action cameras so important. I can see which is better between the two, but is that really a compelling argument for buying one? We all know that the sensors are far too small to even come close to taking a satisfactory low light picture. That's not what action cameras are made for. I have the impression that such values ​​have taken on a life of their own and only a few people think about the extent to which this is really crucial for this type of camera and what it is made for. I don't mean you, the YouTuber. You are obliged to describe these camera properties too. But if I really want to see details in the dark, then I'll use a full-frame camera and not one with such a small sensor. I also think that if you suddenly find yourself in the awkward situation of having to/wanting to take a picture at night, then it's good to have a small low light monster. But actually, for me, this would never be a purchase decision, but rather a "nice to have".

This is such a nice breakdown very natural. Currently, I have the action five. Not sure if I wanna pull the trigger on the ace pro 2 yet. I really wanted to dual compatibility with the DJI mic pro 2 so that’s why I will be keeping it. You are AWESOME!!
