I spent my Sunday afternoon watching YT reviews about GoPro 11/12, Insta360 stuff and DJI Action 4. Also asked around from coworkers who own these cameras. They are all casual users btw.
Decided to pass on GoPro due to mediocre feedback I heard. They all faced issues here and there, crashing and battery life etc. And then the lack of usable night shooting capability and magnetic mount. Liked the gimmicks and the performance of Insta360 Ace Pro but worried about its reliability (being a newer brand) and is more expensive. DJI Action 4 fits the bill due to recent drop of $100 and what's better is this DJI Refurb unit with another $60 off. You would enjoy the same warranty from DJI and if you like peace of mind you can spend $36 on a 2-year DJI care for accidental breakdowns, using the $60 saved from buying refurbished. I ordered it. Price is 40% off of MSRP, unbeatable for a barely 6-month old product from DJI

Insta360 has been around for 10 years (2014), they aren't brand new - they've done like 3 versions of the Go, 3 of the X2, etc.
And calling features "gimmicks"
And saying the Leica lens is just a badge for people to feel good?
Get real.

Someone already pointed out below how difficult to use Insta360's extended warranty service, further proving my point. They don't have an established after-sales department in the US. Gotta ship it to Hong Kong.
You sound like I know nothing about Insta. Actually I am going to order a Go3 when I travel to China this year. Liked the concept and much cheaper there. 450 for Ace Pro is not a good deal no matter how you defend it.
Have fun in this thread troll.

启程
2015年,我们创立了影石Insta360,因为我们想要更好地记录和分享生活。我们一直在寻找一款能够让我们与全世界分享精彩瞬间的全景相机——不仅仅是分享画面一角,而是记录那个当下的所有。 我们发现我们难以找到一款这样的相机时,我们决定研发我们自己的全景相机,至今我们从未停止探索的脚步。
They started out by making 360 cameras for casual use in 2015.
