I have the Pocket 1 so take my opinion with that in mind. The gimbal is useful and I really enjoyed it. The 1" sensor adds very little except in dim light but there it shines. What I enjoyed was how you could put it in level mode and record action without constantly worrying about what was visible through the view finder; I could enjoy my daughter's figure skating rather than worrying about the camera.

*BUT* at $500 this pales in comparison to the convenience of an Insta360 x4. The X4 really records everything in sight and you can frame and edit it later. It is truly fire and forget as long as you're OK editing on a PC or tablet later. Also at $500, you are into the price range for a low end DSLR/ILC which will both blow away the performance in dim light and also allows for framing with the far more detail that comes from an optical zoom lens.

x4 at Costco for $429: https://www.costco.com/insta360-x...91115.html
Example ILC deal for Canon R50 with 2 lens for $299, now OOS: https://slickdeals.net/f/17444715-refurb-canon-camera-lenses-sale-free-s-h?src=SiteSearch
My Osmo Pocket now sits on the side of my desk mostly neglected.

What Costco deal is $399?

This is for the bundle which includes extra battery and accessories not included with the standard pocket 3 camera...

DJI Website sells the Camera alone for $519 + Battery for $69 > https://store.dji.com/product/osm...vid=153291

So this price is around $90— less than what this kit sells for direct from the manufacturer.

Yeah but $499 is the everyday bundle price for Costco members. This bundle was just on black Friday sale for $399 a week earlier.
