Selling an Insta360 X5, X4 or ONE R Twin Edition: Which One Do You Have?

Selling an Insta360 X5, X4 or ONE R Twin Edition: Which One Do You Have?

September 14, 2026

A 360 camera is the one action camera where the glass is on both sides and never covered while you shoot, so the questions we get about "Insta360 second hand" are almost all about the lenses: is a scratch on one lens a problem, does a replaced lens count, is the ONE R still worth anything with its modules. This guide answers those, tells you which Insta360 page is yours, and explains what to do if you own an X3, X2 or GO that is not on our site.

The Insta360 pages we list

• Sell Insta360 ONE X5 (also listed as Insta360 X5)
• Sell Insta360 ONE X4 (also listed as Insta360 X4)
• Sell Insta360 ONE R Twin Edition

All three sit in our action camera section, next to the DJI Osmo and GoPro pages, under all Insta360 models. In the week of 4 to 10 September 2026, Insta360 pages received 27 of the 845 model-page views on this site, and our purchase records for February to September 2026 include X3, X4 and X5 units bought from sellers.

X5, X4 or ONE R: how to tell

The X4 and X5 are the candy-bar 360 cameras with a lens on each face. The model name is printed on the body and on the box, and the About screen in the camera's settings shows the full name and serial number, which is what the agent records at pickup. Both are sold in bundles with a selfie stick or a lens guard; the bundle does not change which page you use, but the extra items count as accessories.

The ONE R Twin Edition is the modular camera: a core unit, a battery base, and two swappable lens modules, the 360 module and the 4K wide-angle module. It is only the Twin Edition if you have both modules. If you have the core and one module, tell us which one on the form or send a photo, because the missing module changes the grade.

Both lenses decide the grade

On a DSLR the lens is priced separately; on a 360 camera the two lenses are the camera. When you grade your Insta360, hold each lens against the light and look for scratches, chips and haze. A scratch that shows in the stitched footage is the difference between Flawless and Average.

The X5 is designed so that its lenses can be replaced by the user. If you have replaced a lens, that is fine; tell us on the form and mention it to the agent. A camera with one new lens and one scratched lens is graded on the scratched one. Lens guards, stick-on or screw-on, are accessories and come off for the check.

What changes the price

The price form uses the same inputs for every action camera:

1. The model page, which sets the maximum for that model in Flawless condition.
2. The condition grade: Flawless, Good, Average or Below Average.
3. How long ago you bought it: under 4 months, 4 to 12, 12 to 18, 18 to 24 or over 24 months. Our guide to the age brackets explains why this is asked separately from condition.
4. The accessories you still have: box, charger, bill, battery, mounts and the shorty grip. The invisible selfie stick counts under mounts. None of them is required to sell.

What we check at pickup

• Both lenses, against the light, and a short clip to see the stitch line and that both sensors work.
• The touchscreen, for dead spots and marks under the glass.
• The battery door and USB door: they should close and lock. The camera should hold a charge for a normal session.
• The mounting thread at the base, which takes a lot of strain from a stick, for cross-threading or cracks.
• On the ONE R, both modules mounted and swapped, and the battery base latching cleanly.
• A power-on video, the same one the agent records.

Doing the same check yourself before you fill in the form is the best way to make sure the quote and the pickup price are the same number. If something material is different from what you entered, the agent re-quotes on the spot with the reason and you are free to decline. The wider checklist for GoPro, DJI and Insta360 is in what changes an action camera's price.

X3, X2, ONE X, GO or Ace: not listed yet

We do not list the X3, X2, the original ONE X, the GO series or the Ace series at the moment. Send one photo to Instant Quote or call or WhatsApp +91 95608 22859: we tell you whether we buy that model and quote manually. It has to power on; a dead camera is not accepted in any category.

Before you hand it over

Back up your footage, format the card, and sign out of the Insta360 app so the camera is unpaired from your phone. Our reset checklist has the steps. Keep the stick, the lens guards, the charger and the box together: the agent lays the accessories out and photographs them.

Pickup is free in ten cities, including Bangalore and Chennai, and you are paid at the door by bank transfer, UPI or cash. Anywhere else in India you can sell by courier after a video call check. If you also own a DJI Osmo Action, our guide to selling an Osmo Action 4 or Action 5 Pro works the same way, and both can go in one pickup.

Frequently asked questions

One lens on my X4 is scratched. Will you still buy it?

Yes. The camera is graded on the scratched lens, so it lands in a lower grade than Flawless, but a working X4 with a scratched lens is still something we buy. Enter the honest grade and the quote holds at pickup.

I replaced a lens on my X5. Does that lower the price?

No. A replaced lens in good condition is graded as it is. Tell us on the form and mention it to the agent so the record is clear.

Do you buy the Insta360 X3 or X2?

They are not listed on the site. Send a photo to Instant Quote or WhatsApp us and we will tell you whether we buy that model and quote manually.

I have the ONE R core with only the 360 module. Which page do I use?

Use the ONE R Twin Edition page and tell us on the form that one module is missing, or send a photo to Instant Quote. The missing module changes the grade, and the agent confirms the modules at pickup.
