Insta360 X5 review:I spent a month taking it biking, walking, and on family trips

Insta360 X5 on selfie stick.

I love this kind of camera, and here's why: A 360-degree camera is one which can see the entire scene from the point the camera is held. Typically that's on the end of a pole which it is able to ignore using AI – so it's called the "invisible selfie stick".

The magic of this is that you don't need to point the camera when you're capturing any action, and – depending on the app – you can either edit the pictures or footage to crop in on part of the scene (yes, point the camera later) or view it using something that lets the viewer click and drag / turn their head and see the entire world.
