Reasons to avoid the Insta360 Ace Pro 2

• Pricey The Ace Pro 2 has the overall best sensor technology of the moment but it is more expensive than it's main competitors, the GoPro Hero 13 Black and the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro. If you don't need 8K video, you might want to consider another product amongst the best action cameras.
• Not the best low light performance The DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro still offers the best low light performance with it's SuperNight mode. If filming in the dark is a must for your, you might want to consider the Action 5 Pro.
• Flip screen The flip screen can be very useful for filming one's self, but it does introduce a point of failure and makes the overall build less rugged than other competitors. You might want to consider the GoPro Hero 13 Black, it's predecessor the GoPro Hero 12 Black or the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro which have a simpler design if you are afraid the Ace Pro 2 won't be sturdy enough for your usage.
