Insta360 Ace and Ace Pro: The smartest Action Cam ever

Insta360 is excited to announce the release of the Insta360 Ace and Insta360 Ace Pro, two cutting-edge wide-angle cameras that deliver even smarter shooting with incredible image quality.


The premium version is the Insta360 Ace Pro, designed in collaboration with an undisputed reference in the imaging sector, Leica: this new product boasts an industry-leading 1/1,3" sensor for truly superior performance and in addition to 4K video shooting at 120fps (and 48MP photos), integrates PureVideo mode, for extraordinary shots even in low light conditions. Insta360 Ace, on the other hand, is the more accessible option, with a smaller 1/2″ sensor (48MP) that offers 6K video shooting.

Both cameras are packed with unique and intelligent shooting features. Practical elements such as the 2,4″ rotatable touchscreen ideal for vlogging offer excellent creative flexibility. Innovative functions such as the ability to pause or cancel a recording, voice and gesture control, as well as the new AI Assistant are also available, which further improve the shooting and editing experience.

Insta360 Ace Pro will soon be available at the best resellers of Insta360 products in Italy, on insta360.nital.it and insta360.com. Insta Ace instead will be available exclusively on insta360.com.
Unbeatable images, both day and night.

As a determining factor in a camcorder's image quality, the Ace Pro's premium 1/1.3″ sensor puts it squarely ahead of its competitors. It captures more light and offers dramatically improved dynamic range, making it capable of high-level performance even in fast-moving action or low-light scenarios. And that's not all, Ace Pro was designed in collaboration with Leica, bringing all their expertise in optical design and imaging to the creation of this amazing device.

Thanks to the 5nm AI chip and the huge sensor, both Ace and Ace Pro are integrated with a feature that guarantees unparalleled low light performance: PureVideo. A combination of noise reduction, enhanced brightness and improved dynamic range, this technology ensures you capture a huge amount of detail and impressive stabilization, even at night! This broadens the camera's usage scenarios, ranging from sunset walks to night city shots.

An even smarter way to shoot, both in and out of the water.

The Ace Pro's rugged 2,4" rotatable touchscreen lets you always see exactly what you're shooting, making framing a breeze. This flexibility makes the camera incredibly useful for vlogging, selfies, or hard-to-capture angles. Plus, a magnetic mounting system allows you to quickly mount your camera and switch between accessories instantly and easily. Less hassle with screws and knobs, more space and time for action.

Inside, a series of new features solve problems that have plagued action fans for years:

Clarity Zoom – do you want a close-up but the image quality is too low? Ace Pro can zoom in and out 2x without the image quality being affected.
Gesture Control – use gestures to start/stop filming or take a photo! Perfect for group selfies, noisy environments or if you are unable to use voice control (Ace Pro also has this feature).
Cancel registration – Did the trick fail? Did you make a fool of yourself? He immediately cancels the recording and starts over, saving space on the SD card and time searching for files.
Pause/restart recording – you have time between takes. Pause filming to keep everything you want to film in one continuous file for easy file management and editing.
Live Snapshots – imagine you're shooting a video when suddenly the perfect opportunity to take a photo presents itself. Continue filming while taking a photo, but at a much higher resolution than a screenshot.

We like to make shooting as simple as possible, but every content creator knows that feeling of being faced with an incredible amount of files to select and not knowing where to start. Here, then, is another new revolutionary tool, the AI ​​assistant.
First, it automatically detects the highlights of a video and arranges them into different clips for you to choose from. Creators can combine every emotional moment into one epic file, or choose their own. The AI ​​assistant will immediately delete unwanted clips to save space.
Once finished, the assistant will edit the latest adventures into an unforgettable video and send it directly to the creator's device, who can relive every moment and relive the most important memories, just like the first time.
The Insta360 app is also packed with advanced AI editing tools that further push the boundaries of what you can do.

Unleash creativity.

The Ace Series comes with a unique stats dashboard, a feature exclusive to Insta360. It integrates seamlessly with Garmin devices or the Apple Watch, allowing you to overlay GPS, speed and other data on videos. It will therefore be possible to share your adventures with a new level of detail, whether you are cycling, jogging or simply walking outdoors.

Warp AI is another creative tool that allows you to add dynamic effects to videos. This premium AI feature is highly customizable and can be applied to the entire clip or specific parts of it, giving the footage a unique feel based on whatever comes to the creator's mind at a certain moment.

Ready for action anywhere, anytime.

Thanks to its waterproof body, the Ace series can shoot up to 10 meters depth. Furthermore, the Underwater Case allows you to take the camera up to an impressive depth of 60 metres.

Water isn't the only element where this fabulous pair of cameras excels. They work flawlessly in temperatures as low as -20°C, making them ideal for filming winter sports too. The cameras use Insta360's cutting-edge technology, FlowState Stabilization, which ensures smooth videos, regardless of the intensity of the action.

The Horizon Lock 360° feature raises the bar even further, keeping videos perfectly aligned with the horizon, even when you're moving. That way, whether you're riding dirt on a mountain trail or shooting high-intensity scenes, your footage will stay rock-steady.
Ace Pro also prioritizes convenience with fast charging. The battery recharges to 80% in just 22 minutes (full charge in 46 minutes), ensuring even more time for shooting.
