I got the Gear 360 2017 a long time ago, back in April 2017, but I didn't feel like making a review about it because I felt it was inferior to other cameras. 🤔 But now that it has stabilization, and with its insanely low price, it has rocketed to the top of the charts, for the best entry-level 360 camera in my opinion! 😮 That's why I spent a loooooot of time to make this video (it took me more than 2 weeks to finish it, as you can see from the intro! 😁 Enjoy it and if you know anyone who like to take photos and videos, especially parents with kids, please share it with them -- you can make a difference in their life! Best regards, Mic

Your best video yet- well done!

Great Work Mic, especially love the comment in the last minute of the video. Makes it sooo worthwhile - documenting general life.

As always... Spectacular content Mic!

Dude, TY! Help a lot in search of stabilized 360 cam!

Very well produced video. This sold me a camera and you gained a sub.

Fantastic video! I bought a Samsung Gear 360 based almost entirely on this super-informative review. Thank you! My 360 is being shipped as I write this.

This video is amazing! One of your best!!! Amazing work...

Great review. I've seen them all and this one made me buy one. Thank you.

Very good video and reasons why to use a 360 camera!

Thanks very much, lots of helpful hints and tips. I’ve just got my Samsung Gear 360 2017.

Totally agree with you on the Samsung Gear 360, congrats....great video.

great review, thank you Sir

Excellent promotional video for 360 photo/videography! So convincing!

Good job on the video.

Thanks for your video, I have this Samsung Gear 360 and was never happy with it, it's been collecting dust for some time, gonna update it now.

Great video, very informative. Beautiful family.

Just seen your video I like your understanding of the samsung 360⁰ specially how to use the 360⁰

Oh my! I had no idea they updated it to include stabilisation! I've owned since it was released and have captured so many great memories. I rarely used the video and assumed you had some fancy gimball to get those shots. But it's all in the camera! I'm so excited to use it on my next trip in August

Watching in 2021, as I'm looking at buying one of these!! Such a good video mate! So buying this camera now! Thank you very much, covered everything!!!

Good job Mic...worth waiting for.

Great video. Sounds like me - I have a DLSR and have taken what I think are amazing, high quality pictures but when I look back, I am not in them and the camera is a chore to carry with all the other items you need for a day out. I've been using the phone (S9+) as it is good enough and plan to add the gear 360 for cycle commuting safety (sadly needed) and holidays. Your video was very useful - thanks

Awesome video, glad to see something about gear 360 camera. What you think, will samsung release new gear 360 for 2018? Maybe on Samsung note 9 event?

Mic, Was just ordering the insta360 when i saw this..great job. Also what restaurant are you at? Im in Temecula and it looks like a great place. Thanks Keep making great videos

Great video. I have been following you for a few weeks since I first learned about the Rylo and the concept of overcapturing and using the Rylo software to easily make flat videos. I LOVE that thought. I have been using the orig Gear forever but don't do much with the videos since I don't know much about editing on my computer. Is there anything within the Samsung app, along with the Gear 2017, that allows you to overcapture and produce normal aspect ration videos like you have here? Or are you still using a desktop application to make these? Again I love your channel... you have gotten me excited about the new projects. I just don't have the cash to buy the Rylo right now. But getting the new G360 might be a good choice. THanks!

My 2016 is updated with image stabilizer for like 6 months now and works great

Very nice video Mic, well done!

Hi Great video 👌👍👏👏 I was originally going to get Samsung gear 360 2017 but the more reviews I watched more my appetite grown and I thought insta360 one will be the best all round camera , now that I watched this review I have dilemma should I go for Samsung or insta360 one which is 3x more expensive. Is the insta360 one image quality that much better. Any help will be greatly appreciated Thanks

Hello Mike Thank you much for making this video it helped me a lot. Five stars for you. :) I subscribed to your channel as well.

Great video as always, Mic. You're a wonderful advocate for 360. BTW, where did you put the selfie stick when you went up on the ride? It's good that you weren't hassled about having it on you. Cheers, Ric

Watching it in 2021, great video! Which pole (selfie stick) did you use? Do you have a link for it?

Hi. Cool video. I recorded a video on 360 4k, but the phone app (iphone x) tells me that it cannot work with high res, so it will downgrade it. Also said that to get the 4k, i have to use the desktop app. So...no stabilization for 4k video? Do you know a turnaround?

Watching this in 2021, awesome review!! I found one of these for 75USD and I'm considering buying it. I'm impressed by the stabilization you get from the app, do you know if by now there's an option to achieve a similar result from a desktop software?

yes thanks for your efforts in making vid and explain all simple as possible very great help to me to my divice thanks again steve in uk

than you, good job!

Very nice video, btw, I am a Gear360 2017 owner since the past year and I didn´t want to update the firmware to the newest version because I was afraid that something started to work wrong and because the Samsung support is quite bad for this device, I didn´t take that risk, but after seeing your video, I will consider the update because the stabilization looks good enough for a cheaper camera, in fact, I only took 360 photos with my camera because the videos looked quite unstable all the time. BTW, do you think this camera will be in the market for a while? or do you think that samsung will release a new version this year?. Thanks for you video.

Perfect work. I just wonder how you edit and combine 360 video in regular video like this one which software you used ? Thanks

Hello, what PC software do you use to edit the videos in Samsung Gear 360 4k? Thanks!!

Sir, you have created the best quality video that I have ever seen...very descriptive, very clear, very informative, and certainly appears very professional! I and searching for a good camera that will link to my Samsung Note 9, but Gopro does not...so the only camera I found so far is the gear 360....I just don't want a 360 camera. Hopefully Samsung will come out with a good quality action camera soon, one that'll link to my phone. Thank you for sharing your awesome video, I truly enjoyed watching it!

Hi, I have 2 Samsung Gear 360. Both was working fine until today. Impossible now to save pictures on my phone with one of the Gear 360. I reset the Gear, I reinstall the app but still same issue. Can you help me ? Thanks

Great video review may i know what is the setting do you use on gear 360 for video and photo thank you!

I've had a Quest 2 now for about 3 years, but I've only just picked up a Samsung Gear360 camera for immersive 360 shots for £35 in the UK, as my first choice, the Vuze XR is still £300 4 years on with it having both 360 mode and flip dual lenses for 3D. Otherwise, having lots of fun with the Gear360 at the moment. Desktop app from Sep 2018 now has stabilisation stitching, just missing the alternative 360 modes such as small planet view, which whilst phone app has it, phone app is no longer available on Play or Galaxy store and has to be installed as an apk (I luckily had an old J3 kicking around). So still working a few quirks out, otherwise, putting these videos directly onto the Quest 2, it's great being able to relive moments as if you're there, seeing everyone's reactions in fantastic detail.

Great video Mic!! Makes me want to dust off my Xiaomi 360 and go for a wander, wish they'd do some updates with it though the stabilisation on the Gear 360 now looks far better. Do you have any links to the Facebook photogrammetry you got to try out??

I loved my OG gear 360 and I’ve recommended the 2017 model to loads of people. I use the xiaomi at the moment but I think for most people using a 360 camera on holidays etc the gear 360 2017 is amazing for the price. I actually miss shooting action cam style with the xiaomi. People using the gear 360 have some great shooting opportunities especially with the single lens option.

Really learned a lot from this video yet I still have questions regarding the different modes and when they are needed. I can't tell if it is still recording or not. Would love more information on what setting works better when. ALso,is it recording on my phone's memory or on the memory card in the 360 gear camera? How much space or video time is available? Sorry, for all these questions but I bought this for work to do virtual tours in real estate and can't afford to make mistakes. Any response to any questions would be appreciated.

I have a question about editting. I wish to film 360 but only show the scenes I want, in essence a virtual camera fly-through. Is this possible ? I would like to take the appropriate views and de-fisheye them to give a normal 16:9 (or whatever) format. An example would be on a boat where you are watching some fishing. Once a fish is caught I would like to show that action of it being landed and released. I would only want to focus on the area that is of interest.

Hi, in what video editing program did you have this movie on youtube? Can I use the Rylo camera tracking function in any computer or phone program? Thanks for everything :) Stef

It's me again :) Now I got my Gear 360, I've updated it and have for starters just taken some pictures. But I cant get close to the quality on the final pictures compared to your video.. I've updated the firmware, changed the settings to the highest, checked for the HDR, but maybe I'm doing something wrong when transferring the pictures? Do you know any good workflow-video or write-up?

Hi Mic . great video I have a question. does gear 360 (2017) support video mode in Google street view?

what is the update with Facebook system to step into the photos?

Mic.. what is the latest firmware version. I'm in Qatar and I just checked via the app and it says I have latest version but I don't remember ever updating it.... are they rolling this update out geographically????

Is the selfie stick erased in editing on the Samsung phone? Thanks!

hi will the samsung gear 360 work on a samsung galaxy a40 android 10

Thanks so much Mic! I now know the second 360 camera to purchase. One question though: Do you know of any metadata code which can implement the "Zoom" function on 360 images & video like Google street view? It would great to have both rotate and zoom, it adds much more interest for the viewer. Keep up the great work. Take Care

Hi. Thanks, but having trouble connecting it to Street View. Tried connecting to is Wi-Fi but I get errors. Had the previous model and it was easier.

Hay Mic nice video. I'm planning buy my first 360. Which one should I buy Samsung gear 360 2016 or 2017?🤔🤔

The most important thing I noticed with the 360 ​​gear and you do not lose anything with your family ,,, you also sutter from this problem of not appearing in the photos but now the 360 ​​is going to be a show

Great review Mic! Got me thinking of adding this camera to my collection. Should I get this or another Insta360 One? The Insta360 was just on sale again for $229. You gave so many great reasons and ideas for using a 360 camera. I originally bought it as a novelty but am really enjoying what I can do with it.

Hey man, Great video! And now I'm sorry for my long comment here, but I hope you read it through and can give me some answers.. And btw thank you alot, I now think I know what I have to buy..! I'm a gear/tech-head and are spending too much money on gear(not just camera, gear of all kinds) simply because I think it's fun to explore new things and because I cant really find what siuts me the best.. That has led me to the place I am today, owning two Nikon DSLR's with quite a few lenses, I got the Gopro 6 black with Feiyu-Tech G5 gimbal, Canon G7X mkii, Samsung S9+ just to mention the most important photo-related stuff.. And I forgot that I've backed the viral LITE on Indiegogo that I'm waiting for.. The reason I thank you is that all this stuff I got, I keep buying because I want to capture for instance my driving with the RC-car on my own.. I Dont want to need another person to film or to drive my car, I want it to be a one man-operation. My original plan was off course using the GoPro with the Gimbal, and that works kind of good, but I must always keep track of where I drive and what direction I face the camera. I've also planned mounting both the gopro and G7X on the viral LITE that I'm waiting for, and that's the thing I until I watched this video had the highest hopes for.. But now, after watching this video.. I am kind of thinking that I may just throw away the Gopro and the G7X and just buy the Gear 360 2017 and mount that to the viral LITE, or even when walking on the side of the RC I may just care about the hight of the lens and choose the caption afterwards, because now I cant miss the shots anymore..!? Do you agree with me on this one? And btw, lots of other users are mac-users who talks trash about the gear 360 because it got the best support on the Samsung devices. And even if I have been thinking about the gopro fusion I believe that camera is best suited for mac-users, am I right? And since I allready got the S9+ I might as well pick the camera that's paired best with these phones, agree? And last of all(I'm really sorry for the long post, I wouldn't hold it against you if you dont care to answer this mess(also sorry for my english, I come from Norway and english is not my native language..)), if you dont take the platform-issues(Samsung vs Apple ++), is the Gear 360 2017 still a good choice? Or is it just the best one for android and if you operate in all the available platforms, would the fusion kill the gear by how much..? Cudos if you've made it to the end, and if I see an answer to this I'll be very stoked. :) BTW: U got a subscriber from Norway tonight, hehe.. Cheers!

do anyone have problem with the camera? Everytime I render there's a wobbly artifacts going on on the final video.

Could you suggest PC software that can stitch and stabilization for samsung gear 360?

Can you compare this to mi sphere 360 4k

Hola, sabes si sigue funcionando con iphone 13?

great video and review.! can anyone plz guide me about this 360 cam that can we edit the videos of this cam jst like an insta 360 one x? (making it invisible with a stick, or stabilization etc? like shot in the video at time 0:28) if yes, then what software can we use for that ?

I have a new samsung gear 360 (2017). However, one of the camera shown a great color tone (blue) different from another one. How can I fix this problem？ OR I need to send back to samsung for a fix?

I have one more question is it working with Samsung phone only ? Coz I have Sony xa2 ultra...

Do you need special selfie invisible stick or any stick will be invisible ?

Whts the name of ur selfie stick?

That’s 100 percent my issue I’m 60 have great photos but where am I lol was I really there nice video

Question: would stabilization work on Photo? or it works on Video only? Or is there any Mobile Apps to re-align horizon?

Спасибо.

hi dear I have a gear 360 but the stitching software (actiondirector 2.0) didn't work perfectly. do you have any alternative?

Is it compatible with all Android phones?

Is it compatible with non Samsung smartphones

I have the same camera but the photos are very bad resolution, and now i have the madv 360, photos 7k, and moooore.

Yea but isn't the new wunder360 camera better than it with 1080 60fps?

Hello I Try to Install the samsung Software, and receive i dont have the vga to install?? do you Know whats is this??? thanks...

Wait, so the Samsung 360 has the invisible selfie stick mode just like the insta 360??

I just did a video on my channel about the stabiliztion also...

Anybody got a solution for app crashes on iOS? At this point, I’m wondering if a 2017 android phone running a 2017 OS might be the best bet to use this camera to it’s full potential. Just gotta find one for cheap.

Can Samsung gear 360 2016 get output like this video?

have gear 360 end video after stitching becomes horrible its not the same as it was before rendering , end i don't see difference between 4k and 1080, end even it becomes worse when i add it in youtube it would be cool to have the same quality after rendering.

Thank$ Mic

Heya, maybe I missed it.. I thought you were going to give detailed step by step how you do Invisible Flying camera? I always have the selfie stick in 360 videos. You did an awesome job hiding the selfie stick. So much better on playback. Also, the quality of 360 is terrible. Wished there was a way to do 180deg with higher quality using this camera. I saw a few hardware mods to hack it into a 3D camera.. but software processing is a multi=step process on Linux.

a to z about samsung gear 360

Good video, but the music in the last part is too loud, I can't hear what you are telling....

2023 you still using it? Regards

8:17 ❤

Merci thx, for titre add for french lol thx Perche Invisible Gear 360

these amazon sellers raised the prices drastically. what.

Your fan is loud

2:35 I guess they never miss, huh I'm sorry, I had to

good review. as someone who thinks industrial civilization will inevitably collapse very soon, not to mention the criminal and irreparable damage humans are doing to other species and the planet, i think you were wrong to have children though. if they survive to adulthood they will look back at your footage and wonder how you were all so blase about the destruction you were causing
