Personally, if I was just going to grab one camera to bring with me for a day, it’d be the One X2. There is a way to configure the One R vertically, but that requires different mods that don’t come with the “base” model. It also does a better job removing selfie sticks since its lenses are in-line with the body and stick.

If you’re looking for a 360 camera, don’t be tempted by the versatility of the One R.

If you’re looking for an action camera, and think 360 videos might be cool sometimes, that’s the One R. There is a fairly simple way to sum up these points. If you love GoPro and how their videos look, I wouldn’t try very hard to talk you out of it. What to me puts the X2 ahead is Insta360’s app, which has more editing options, and editing is a crucial part of any 360 camera. It has excellent image quality and stabilization. One other high-profile 360 camera is GoPro’s Max. The X2 is always ready to go to do exactly what it can do. Might seem obvious, but it’s worth mentioning. If the One R isn’t in the configuration you need, it’s way slower to use.To me, this is a big point in the X2’s favor. The X2 does a better job removing the selfie stick from any video/photo, which is one of the best tricks possible with a 360 camera.That’s just image quality, though, not how interesting the video is.

Swap in the 1-inch or 4K mods, and that video will look better than the 1080p reframed One X2 video. The video quality potential with the One R is far higher.These are the core differences with the videos and photos you take: Having used both of these cameras for several weeks I am finding it hard to choose between them.
