Now, this is what they mean by saying "unbiased, honest, professional review". Thank you... On a side note: in terms of overall quality, how does this 72MP photo compares to RX 1inch's 21MP?

What do you think of the X3 - are you considering this as your first 360° camera? Or if you have this model or the X2 what do you think of it - I'd love to hear!

I'm a DJ and I want to record the entire night for my gig vlog. I was thinking of mounting a 360 camera such as the Insta360 Infront of me so it captures me the entire night (this way I don't need a social media assistant as much) as well as capture the entire venue/dance floor.

I'd like it to be recorded at 4k or AT LEAST 1080P. Is there a slot for a large capacity SD card? I will probably need 2 or more SD cards for longer nights.

Is this the right product to execute my idea?

I have a GoPro max would you suggest buying the insta 360 x3 or just keep my GoPro max?
