Mascom International stocks the Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle at KSh 79,000, brand new and sealed, with the camera, a 114cm Invisible Selfie Stick, a Utility Fast Charge Case, two batteries and lens protection in one box. The Insta360 X5 films 8K 360-degree video at 30fps on dual 1/1.28-inch sensors and takes 72MP photos. It is waterproof to 15 metres without a case, and its lenses can be replaced by the owner if one gets scratched. The Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle is on display at our Old Mutual Building showroom on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, and ships across Kenya.
Designed for motorcyclists, travel vloggers, hikers, estate agents and event filmmakers, the Insta360 X5 records every direction at once, so you choose the angle later instead of guessing it in the moment. A rider on Thika Road never misses the matatu that cut in, and a hiker on Mount Kenya keeps both the summit and the team in one clip. The usual problem with 360 cameras is short battery life on long days out. This bundle answers it with a second battery and a case that charges both, so a full day of shooting does not depend on finding a socket.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell the bare camera and leave you to find a stick and spare battery later, Mascom International hands over the full Essentials kit that Insta360 boxes together. Customers across Nairobi tell us the Invisible Selfie Stick is the accessory they use most, because it makes footage look as if a drone followed them. Compared with buying the Insta360 X5 and adding accessories one by one, the Essentials Bundle saves both money and searching. Walk in to try the Insta360 X5 at our counter, or order on WhatsApp and pay when it arrives.
Common Questions About the Insta360 X5
What is the Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle price in Kenya?
The Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle costs KSh 79,000 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed. That is KSh 19,000 more than the plain Insta360 X5 at KSh 60,000, and the difference pays for the Invisible Selfie Stick, the Utility Fast Charge Case, a second battery and standard lens guards. The price includes a 12-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. You can settle by M-Pesa, card or cash once the parcel is in your hands.
Should I buy the Insta360 X5 or save money with the Insta360 X4?
The Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle at KSh 79,000 costs KSh 32,000 more than the Insta360 X4 at KSh 47,000 from Mascom International. The X5 uses larger 1/1.28-inch sensors and a triple AI chip, so night and indoor footage come out cleaner. Its lenses are replaceable by the owner, which the X4 cannot match, so a scratched lens no longer means a repair trip. Choose the X5 bundle for night rides, events and travel. Choose the X4 if you mostly film in daylight and want the lower price.
Can the Insta360 X5 handle Kenyan rain, dust and the coast?
Yes, the Insta360 X5 is rated IP68 and waterproof to 15 metres without a housing, so rain on a boda boda ride or a swim at Diani will not stop it. The built-in wind guard uses a multi-layer steel mesh to cut wind noise at speed. Dust on murram roads in Laikipia is the bigger risk to lenses, which is why the bundle includes standard lens guards. For snorkelling deeper than 15 metres, Insta360 sells a separate dive case rated to 60 metres.
How long does the Insta360 X5 battery last, and what about KPLC outages?
The Insta360 X5 records up to 88 minutes at 8K, 135 minutes at 5.7K, and 185 minutes at 5.7K 24fps in Endurance Mode on one 2400mAh battery. The Essentials Bundle includes two batteries, so a full day out gets roughly double that. Fast charging reaches about 80% in around 20 minutes. During a KPLC power cut, the Utility Fast Charge Case lets you charge both batteries from a power bank, then swap them in seconds without opening a laptop.
What does the Invisible Selfie Stick in the Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle do?
The 114cm Invisible Selfie Stick in the Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle disappears from 360 footage, because the camera stitches the stick out of the image. The result looks like a camera floating beside you, close to a drone shot without a drone permit. Hold it out while walking through Maasai Market or cycling around Lake Naivasha, and the clip shows you and your surroundings together. At 114cm it folds short enough to fit a daypack or a motorcycle tank bag.
How good is the Insta360 X5 at night and in low light?
The Insta360 X5 handles low light well for a 360 camera, thanks to dual 1/1.28-inch sensors and a triple AI chip that cleans up grain. PureVideo processing helps evening footage of city streets, concerts and wedding receptions look clearer. Active HDR balances bright stage lights against dark crowds. Expect sharper night clips than older 360 cameras with smaller sensors, though a 360 camera still gathers less light per angle than a single-lens camera such as a pocket gimbal.
Can I edit Insta360 X5 footage on my phone and post it quickly?
Yes, Insta360 X5 footage is edited in the Insta360 app on your phone, where you pick the angle, add motion and export a flat clip for TikTok, Instagram or WhatsApp Status. InstaFrame mode records a standard flat video at the same time as the 360 file, so you can post straight away without reframing first. On Safaricom or Airtel Kenya 4G, a short exported clip uploads in the time it takes to order a coffee in Kilimani.
Who should buy the Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle, and who should skip it?
Buy the Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle if you ride, travel, hike or film events and want every angle covered with spare power in the box. It suits motorcyclists, tour guides, estate agents filming property walk-throughs and travel creators. Skip it if you mostly film interviews or talking-head videos; the Insta360 Luna Ultra Creator Bundle, with its wireless mic and zoom, fits that work better. For a tiny hands-free point-of-view camera, the Insta360 GO Ultra is the lighter pick.
Technical Specifications
Sensor and Image Quality
- Dual 1/1.28-inch sensors — one behind each lens, large for a 360 camera, so footage stays cleaner in shade and dim rooms.
- 72MP photos — 360 stills detailed enough to crop a regular photo from any direction and still print it sharply.
- Triple AI chip — three processors sharing image work, mainly to reduce grain in night and indoor footage.
- Active HDR — high dynamic range, which keeps bright skies and dark shadows visible in the same frame.
- PureVideo processing — Insta360's low-light mode for evening streets, concerts and receptions with mixed lighting.
Lens and Stabilization
- User-replaceable lenses — a scratched lens can be swapped at home instead of sending the camera away for repair.
- Standard lens guards in the box — clear covers that take the scratches from dust, gravel and sand instead of the lens.
- FlowState stabilization — electronic smoothing that removes shake from riding, running and walking footage.
- Horizon kept level in 360 footage — the image stays upright even when the camera tilts on a helmet or handlebar.
- Built-in wind guard — a multi-layer steel mesh over the microphones that cuts wind roar at motorcycle speeds.
Video Capabilities
- 8K 360 video at 30fps — the full sphere in high detail, so reframed flat clips still look sharp on a phone.
- 5.7K 360 video at up to 60fps — smoother motion for sport, riding and fast action scenes.
- 4K 360 video at 120fps — high frame rate that turns into slow motion when played back at normal speed.
- InstaFrame mode — records a flat standard clip alongside the 360 file, ready to post without editing first.
- Bullet Time, Time-Lapse, Loop Recording and Me Mode — preset shooting styles for spinning shots, long scenes and dashcam use.
- Reframe after recording — because every direction is saved, you choose the final angle in editing, so a missed moment is rarely lost.
Battery and Storage
- 2400mAh battery — up to 88 minutes at 8K, 135 minutes at 5.7K, and 185 minutes in 5.7K 24fps Endurance Mode.
- Two batteries in the bundle — swap one in while the other charges, roughly doubling recording time per outing.
- Fast charging — about 80% in around 20 minutes, useful between sessions on a long shoot day.
- Utility Fast Charge Case — a pocket case that charges the batteries together and protects them in a bag.
- Power bank friendly — USB-C charging means a phone power bank keeps the case and batteries topped up during long outages.
- microSD recording — footage saves to a microSD card, sold separately; choose a fast, high-capacity card for 8K files.
Waterproofing and Accessories
- IP68, waterproof to 15 metres — safe for rain, rivers, pools and snorkelling without an extra housing.
- Optional dive case rated to 60 metres — sold separately by Insta360 for scuba divers going deeper.
- 114cm Invisible Selfie Stick — vanishes from 360 footage for floating, drone-like third-person shots.
- Insta360 app editing — pick angles, add motion tracking and export flat clips straight from your phone.
- Lens cap and carry case — protection for the lenses and body when the camera rides in a backpack or tank bag.

The Insta360 X5 Essentials Bundle comes packed as Insta360 sells it: the Insta360 X5 camera, a 114cm Invisible Selfie Stick, a Utility Fast Charge Case, standard lens guards, two batteries, a lens cap and a carry case. A wall charger and a microSD card are not part of the bundle, and Mascom International sells both separately, so you can leave the store ready to record.
