At a glance

Category: AI Hardware. Pricing: available for a one-time purchase. Last modified: 2026-09-07.

The X4 captures 8K/30fps 360 video with two 1/2-inch sensors, then uses AI in the desktop and mobile apps to let you 'reframe' the footage after the fact, pan, zoom, follow a subject, and output a flat 16:9 or 9:16 clip from a 360 source. The selfie stick disappears in the final video automatically. The AI feature stack added in 2025 is the differentiator: AI Highlights scans hours of footage and assembles a montage of the best moments; Auto Reframe follows people, vehicles, or animals through 360 footage; and the Shot Lab template library applies preset edits (skydiving cuts, ski slope follow-shots, drone-style flythroughs) in one tap. Waterproof to 10m, 135 minutes of 8K recording per battery. Most popular 360 camera among action sports and travel creators in 2026.
