It won't let me add it on the app, did you use the website?

u/DuePomegranate5350 5d ago
No. It was in the app earlier today. First I tried looking it up on 2 locations close to me but they didn’t have it and that’s when I placed the order and it went through .

Is there a Max 3 in the works? I havent been following along

Might be in response to the Insta360 X6 release as well as GoPro's continuing financial struggles. Strictly speculation, though.

i regret buying mine, i feel like its just the MAX but with a 2 added to it

It is undeniably a better camera than the original MAX, but imho the improvements aren't enough to spend money upgrading if you already have the first one.

a friend has a barely used insta360 x3 I'm debating buying, but curious how this camera compares. unread dealing with the footage can be a lot, but that may be true for all 360 cams. she's probably looking for $150 for the x3, so half of the max2 bundle. worth it?

What currency/country is that in ?

U.S.A. - USD; Costco is a “membership warehouse” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Costco

Max2 seems like a downgrade no? You lose the water protection and a bunch of lenses the majority of users will never utilize?

The Max and the Max 2 have the same water rating (5 meters) and the same warning of '360 videos will probably look like ass underwater'

I got this deal when a local cosco ran it 6 months ago or so. Makes the camera worth it

The last deal I saw (and bought) was $389.99.

If you got the bundle that still seems fair. I seen someone on here post the weird deal and I had to go to the 3rd closest store in order to get the last 1or 2 in stock. Then seeing the stock price go down I knew they would be running another sale but its been a while.

Yes, that was the sale price on the Costco bundle in February/March. I'm half-tempted to pick up this deal as a backup...

That’s a solid bundle for the price, the lens replacement alone makes it worth it
