Insta360 ONE RS Boosted 4K Edition - With 64GB Card

After one too many problems with my GoPros, the Insta360 One RS is my goto mini camera now. I have 3.I like the fully manual settings which are easiest accessed via the Insta360 app, which is very good for professional broadcast use, and the stills and 4K video resolution that this camera takes, is brilliant.I've had no overheating issues with this camera, unlike the competitors, which is extremely important to the critical filming work I do with these..

A note to start, this was bought from Amazon Warehouse so may of been returned for same reasons I'm returning it for.. Although I would hope it wouldn't of been resold for one obvious reason....Within 5 minutes of the camera being on, the camera module was hot. I mean, uncomfortably hot. Checked all settings, everything connected properly, etc, but there was def an issue there. As stated at start, it came from Amazon Warehouse, the battery was fully charged, SD card ready installed and formated, and the mounting thumbscrew missing, so was certsinly a return, but weather it was for the the heating issue I don't know. I would hope it wouldn't be resold if it was!Can't argue with Amazon service, deliverrd on time and request for refund seems to be going through with no probs (so far). Have done more research and found the insta's do have over heating problems so have ordered another make to try. I do like the modular design of the RS tho and hope they get these probs sorted.

I am very disappointed on my first use, it has multiple different problems1- Stopped showing the charging icon on the screen (so you have no clue if its charging or not) activating the LED indicator doesn't help either.2- Does not turn on (freezes on turning on) have to take it out of its bracket, then take the battery off and put it back and try to turn it on again3- How does it OVERHEAT EVEN AT 1080P 30FPS and stops recording?!! IS 1080P@30 TOO MUCH TO EXPECT?! I lost a lot of footage. After about 30-45 minutes recording at 1080p 30FPS it apparently stopped recording, I noticed little later that the LED color is changed and when I checked it was giving me an overheating message and it had stopped recording.4- Stops charging, tried various cables and Samsung phone chargers ([email protected]), sometimes it charges sometimes it does not!5- Does not connect to the PC anymore! Even after changing the settings in the camera to something like "U-Disk" it is not getting detected by the PC anymore.6- After overheating it factory reset itself! So all the shortcuts I had made and camera settings were reset back to factory!Either I have been unlucky and got one that is faulty. Or it is not an action camera, it's a delicate decorative camera if it can't shoot 1080@30!

Brilliant picture and features but my god are the menus difficult to access on suck a small screen. I've had the unit turn itself off recording with seems to be a connection issue to my phone. The app is a bit lack luster for post production and delivery also dont think you can use the software on any old laptop as it reqs massive amounts of ram to run it and won't install.
