Insta360 X5/X4 Air Mic Adapter

Give Your Sound Its Own Connection Bring a compatible external microphone into your Insta360 recording setup while keeping a charging connection available. Insta360 X5/X4 Air Mic Adapter combines a 3.5 mm audio input and USB-C charging port in a compact, camera-specific accessory. Its buckle secures the adapter at the camera connection, making it a practical addition for spoken commentary, interviews and other recordings where microphone choice matters. Highlights Compatible with Insta360 X5 and X4 Air. 3.5 mm connection for a compatible external microphone. USB-C port supports charging while a microphone is connected. Camera-specific buckle for secure fitting and removal. Approximately 8.5 g, with the adapter supplied on its own. Key Features Choose the Microphone for the Recording The 3.5 mm input lets you use a compatible external microphone rather than relying exclusively on the camera’s built-in microphones. Match the microphone and its connection cable to the camera’s current compatibility guidance. The adapter provides the connection; the final sound still depends on microphone placement, gain settings, wind and the recording environment. Keep Charging Available A separate USB-C port allows the supported camera to charge while the external microphone remains connected. This is useful when preparing a longer stationary session with suitable external power. Use the correct cable and power equipment, keep the connectors dry and leave enough cable freedom for the camera’s intended position. Fit the Camera Connection Securely The small housing connects to the camera’s USB-C port and uses a buckle to hold the accessory in place. Remove the camera’s USB cover as instructed, insert the adapter fully and confirm that it is secure. Keep the removed cover safely so it is ready to refit after the audio accessory is removed. Keep the 360 View Considered The adapter’s shape is designed to remain out of X5’s stitched 360° photos and videos. Position the separate microphone and its cable carefully, as that design does not make every attached component invisible. Check the complete view and make a short sound test before committing an important recording. Carry Only the Connection You Need At approximately 8.5 g, the plastic adapter adds little to a camera kit. It is the dedicated X5/X4 Air accessory, rather than a general USB-C audio dongle for every Insta360 camera. The package contains one adapter; the camera, microphone, audio cable and charging equipment are separate. Summary Insta360 X5/X4 Air Mic Adapter gives compatible cameras a dedicated external-audio connection with charging available alongside it. Choose a supported microphone, secure the buckle and check the complete recording setup. It is a compact way to prepare more deliberate sound without carrying a larger camera rig. Frequently Asked Questions Does This Adapter Fit Both X5 and X4 Air?ExpandCollapse Yes. Insta360’s current accessory compatibility guide lists this adapter for X5 and X4 Air.
