Insta360 X6 is starting to take shape ahead of its official unveiling, and the first leaked images suggest a more compact body with a noticeably different look. The camera appears to keep the familiar dual-lens 360-degree setup, but its overall silhouette is now closer to a conventional action camera.
The most important change appears in the body size. Compared with its predecessor, the new model looks shorter and more compact, while still retaining the front-and-back fisheye lenses needed for full 360-degree capture.
A refreshed layout, but the core formula remains
The small side display is still present, although it now sits within a design that uses softer, more rounded corners. On earlier generations, this screen was used for basic settings and previewing footage, so its continued presence suggests the same practical role here.
That familiar formula may be paired with a major performance jump. The leak indicates that Insta360 X6 could record full 360-degree video at up to 8K 50fps, a step up from Insta360 X5’s 8K 30fps capability in the same mode.
| Aspect | Insta360 X5 | Insta360 X6 |
|---|---|---|
| Body shape | Longer | Shorter and more compact |
| 360-degree video | 8K 30fps | 8K 50fps |
| Side display | Present | Present, with more rounded corners |
Pricing is already circulating before launch
Pricing details have also begun to surface. The base version of Insta360 X6 is said to cost around €689 without extra accessories, while the Essentials Bundle is expected to reach about €789.
There is still no official release date, but the timeline appears to be moving quickly. The camera recently cleared FCC approval, and its appearance at a retailer usually suggests that an announcement is getting closer.
According to Gizmochina, the leak followed the FCC approval earlier this week, which adds further weight to the idea that the launch is approaching. For now, the most important takeaway is that Insta360 X6 seems set to arrive with a smaller body, a familiar dual-lens design, and a sharper 8K 50fps upgrade.
