The 1"-type sensor is somewhat unique, given that most action cameras have smaller sensors.įor video shooting, you'll likely want to use the Insta360 all-purpose tripod or the selfie-stick. During my time with the camera, Insta360 released two firmware updates, so with any luck, the user experience will continue to improve. However, once you've worked through the menus and configured the camera to your liking it's simple to use-just hit the big record button on the top to shoot stills or to start recording video. The touchscreen isn't particularly responsive, the user interface isn’t intuitive, and changing settings requires a fair amount of work. The menu system is difficult to navigate quickly. The One R is generally well-built, but it didn't take long for the cover for the Micro SD slot and USB-C port to break off. ( Update: Insta360 informs us that re-seating the door on the camera in this situation should still ensure a watertight seal to 5M.) Without the cover, the camera had an easier time recognizing that a Micro SD card was inside the camera, but the missing cover also meant the camera wasn't waterproof either. Within a few days of using it, the door covering the Micro SD slot and USB-C port snapped off. If you’ve set the Insta360 One R up on a tripod and are looking to capture video footage or a time-lapse, working through the app, rather than the tiny touchscreen, will be ideal for most users.Īlthough the modular system feels sturdy when it’s all clicked together, the CPU that powers the camera seemed to have issues from the start every time I turned the camera on, it struggled to recognize that the micro SD card was in the camera.Īlthough the modular system clicks together easily and feels substantial, it quickly became clear that not all components are sturdy. The touchscreen on the Insta360 One R can be attached facing either the front or the back of the camera. One neat feature: the core module can be attached in either direction, allowing you to place the screen at the back of the camera or facing forward (useful for selfie mode). Inside the app, you can view footage from the SD card, save files to your phone for easy sharing, access tutorials, change camera settings and edit footage. The process is fast and easy, and the app doesn’t have any trouble remembering the camera between uses. The Insta360 One R assembled with the 1-Inch module, core module and battery base (L), along with the 360 module (R).īefore you start shooting, you'll need to connect the camera to the Insta360 app, which is done through the camera’s Wi-Fi. Physical controls sit on top of the touchscreen and include a power button and a record button-all other settings are changed through the touchscreen or the app.
There's a micro SD card slot and a USB-C port for charging on the side of the core module.

The Insta360 One R’s modular system clicks together easily and is made up of a battery, a lens mod and the core module.
