Insta360 launches X5 BMW Motorrad with Mini Remote and Ultra Battery
Insta360 has partnered with BMW to create a special X5 Motorrad mini remote and ultra battery, which records real-time riding data.
A special partnership with Insta360 means riders can now take advantage of the all-new X5 BMW Motorrad action camera, which offers real-time data, and safer operation through a mini remote.
The new X5 Edition features distinctive BMW Motorrad markings on the rear cover and accessories. However, at a closer glance, you will be able to tell that this edition does more than just provide 360-degree footage.
The new device includes a BMW-themed UI and Stats dashboard, which allows the rider to access real-time riding data, such as speed and distance.
As part of the InstaFrame Mode, the Mini Remote lets the user switch between fixed views - in other words forward facing or selfie angles - and that is paired with a full 360 footage experience as you ride.
Available in limited quantities, the X5 features a new 2800mAh Ultra Battery, which is pre-installed and offers up to 17 per cent more recording time than the standard battery. In addition to the mini remote, camera, and battery, a BMW-branded carry pouch has been updated with a more durable zipper.
The X5 is fully waterproof, but here’s the twist, it works without the need for an external case.
The device is available in the UK and costs £549.99. More information can be found on the official Insta360 website.
