Insta360 X5 Invisible Dive Case Pro

Insta 360 Dive case pro looks awesome, works as described

Works really well. Footage is incredible for both snorkeling and diving. Some issues: Scratches: The main con is it can get scratched easily, even with the cover on, and dive boats are notoriously rough. Wish the material was a bit more resistant. Case detection: The other issue is more with the insta X5 in that it sometimes doesn’t automatically detect the dive case making it a huge headache to switch to that mode. Weight and buoyancy: Make no mistake the case setup is bulky, but the footage is worth it. Even with the weighted stick it comes with it is very positively buoyant. The custom stick you can buy separately to help with that created another issue - you can’t get the cover on the case since the stick is too thick. Overall: even with the above issues well worth it given the quality of the footage

It's way too large and not able to put on musk or other gear. the case surface is easy to get scrach. it will be better if you have the protect cover on it in the water as will. your gear will demage the case as well. For travel the non pro version is better.

I really want to give this 5-stars, as the video quality is good, and the Insta360 X5 is a beast for general diving video, but the second this sucker went below 50ft, the case began to leak. Both moisture absorbent pads were soaked and the camera was saved, but I can't trust this thing for diving any longer, which is a shame. 5-star footage. 0-star quality (unfortunately) I'm currently diving in Bali, so I can't just up and pick up a replacement unfortunately. A bit of a waste of a trip, but I have a GoPro to use in the meantime. A real shame if you ask me. For a product like the X5, there really needs to be way better QC for these accessories.

1st time out yesterday feedback: Large improvement in clarify over the standard case. The included case is useless if you use the Dive Buddy because you can’t put it through the bottom hole without unscrewing it. Tried putting it on backwards but feel right out as I was getting out of the water. Still some reflection issues. I had just gotten a clamshell silicon case for my standard case but this is much bigger so hope 3rd party that made the aforementioned case makes one for the pro—will buy immediately.

Absolutely huge! Almost twice as big as the normal dive case. Why is this so big!? And no silicon cover for travel. It’s just asking for scratches. Not very travel friendly and doesn’t seem to be too durable. Ended up returning it. I didn’t see any improvements in image quality. Weighted handle would be in some shots. Just wasn’t very user friendly

Garbage. The stitching is worse than an $18 Temu knockoff. It’s huge, heavy, and very much not “invisible.” More like visibly flawed in 90% of shots.

The case is well made but do not expect any "seamless" video, even with all the settings correct, there are still faint parrel lines on the footage, mostly to the front and side, not facing the user. I have only used in snorking, so it might be better at depth, but to be honest, even at 4m down, you can still see the seams and it does make some footage unusable. Very disappointed given the price and also, the advertising. UPDATE: I have been engaged with Insta360, who have admitted there is an issue with stitching, especially when shallow and light refraction happens, so if you want to use it at snorkeling depth, I'd wait until they have fixed the stitching issue. It's simply not usable otherwise. At depth, there is still an issue, but not relating to light refraction, but stitching. They have asked me to try it in Studio and not the app, which I'll try and update this review afterwards. It remains, far from 'seamless'.

Das Original Tauschgehäuse von Insta360 ist super. Absolut wasserdicht und sehr gut im Handling. Die Bilder und Videos werden sauber und scharf und Stitch Linie sieht man nur minimal.

Es ist absoluter Mist. Die Linse ist net mal vor dem ersten Unterwassereinsatz frei von deutliche Kratzern geblieben obwohl es in dem mitgelieferten Beutel aufbewahrt wurde
