You never miss a thing

Feels solid
Good image quality
easy to use
Using a tripod is recommended

The Gear360 comes in a nice compact box. It comes with a sleeve and a cable (USB-C to USB). It is so small that it hardly takes up space in my handbag. The setup to connect the Gear360 to my smartphone was quick and simple. After that, it always reconnects to my smartphone at lightning speed.

I quickly learned the keys on the Gear360. You therefore do not need your mobile phone. There is a small screen on which you can see the battery status, remaining memory and connection settings. But I do find it easier to use the Gear360 via my smartphone. Especially if I want to quickly change settings.

After I had taken nice videos and photos, I was able to view them quickly via my smartphone. Quickly and simply I selected the best images and saved nice photos. You can apply many more operations via the software that you can put on your computer.

In the beginning I had some trouble discovering what you can do with the Gear360. I also had to find the best way to hold the Gear360. But once I had taken some photos/videos I saved nice, creative photos that can count on a lot of positive response. Also filming with only 1 lens gives a good quality of image. The sound is picked up very well even if you don't speak loudly. I was pleasantly surprised about this.

During a trip we did an altitude trail. I filmed this with the Gear360. Seeing this again with the Gear VR gives me the creeps.

The Gear360 ensures that you never miss a beat because you can watch everything from 360 degrees and share the experience with your family and friends.

Get creative with 360 degree photos and videos!

360 degree photos and videos have never been easier
fits well in the hand
many options to edit the 360 degree images
cord doesn't feel that solid

In the past you had to put together 360 degree photos manually and that took a while. A few years ago, the Nexus phones offered the ability to combine 360-degree photos from different photos that you take manually. This was already a lot faster, but there was no guarantee that the result would be seamless. With the Gear 360, this is all made very easy: with one click, two 180-degree photos are taken that you can merge in the app. In addition, you can also make videos with it that you can then watch back in VR or post as a 360 degree video on Facebook and YouTube. In practice, the promised 4K for video turns out to be close to full-HD or maybe even slightly less. For the price you have a very nice toy that allows you to take the most unique photos and videos of the moment. In short, a must for gadget lovers and creative hobby photographers! Do you want more quality? Then you will have to choose another model or wait for a new generation of models.

Review is 9,2 out of 10.

Fun to make 360 degree snapshot movies and photos.

Light in weight
take 360 degree photos easily
nice to combine with VR glasses
resolution is a bit on the low side when zooming in

Fun to make 360 degree snapshot movies and photos. If you do not want to be prominently in the picture, it is best to place the Gear 360 on a tripod and control it remotely with your phone or set a timer. The Gear 360 has the following options:

Take 360 degree photo
360 degree HDR photo taking
Create 360 degree video
Create 360 degree timelapse video
180 degree photo taking
180 degree HDR photo taking
Making 180 degree video
Create 180 degree timelapse video

You can set a timer to delay the start of the recording by, for example, 5 seconds. With the software and the app for your phone, the photos and films can be presented in a different way (360 degrees, round, stretched, double or panorama). All in all well worth the money.
