What we don't like about Insta360 ONE RS 1-Inch Wide Angle Lens

  • High price point makes it a significant investment
  • Less durable compared to traditional action cameras (not fully waterproof without the frame)
  • Small rear touchscreen is hard to see in direct sunlight

Verdict

The Insta360 ONE RS 1-Inch Wide Angle Edition is a premium modular action camera co-engineered with Leica, featuring a large 1-inch sensor that captures 5.3K video at up to 30fps and 19MP photos. Its primary characteristics include an f/2.4 aperture, a 14.4mm equivalent focal length, and integrated FlowState stabilization with 360° horizon leveling. The main pros are its unrivaled image quality for an action cam, superior low-light performance due to the large sensor, and a rugged waterproof design up to 16 feet when assembled in its bracket. Notable cons include a small 1.3-inch touchscreen that can be difficult to navigate, occasional overheating during long-form high-resolution recordings, and a minimum focus distance of approximately 20 inches that limits close-up shots.
