After getting to know the Gear 360 2017 (#robopenis) quite intimately over the past few weeks, despite having one fatal flaw, could this turn out to be the best consumer 360 camera i've discovered so far in 2017?

Great video! Just bought the 2017 model myself and beginning to get the hang of it. Having previously used the LG 360 I've already noticed the image quality and the general aesthetic and build quality is clearly more advanced. The lack of a youtube/facebook live feature for iOS is a bit frustrating at the moment, so I look forward to when that becomes available. At this price point it is really tough to beat this 360 camera. Thanks for the review and tutorial!

Question, I have owned the 360 for about 4 years. It's not my EDC, but I will use it a few times a year. Lately it seems to be not as sharp as before. It has been sitting un-pluged for about a year, If the battery goes dead, dead for that time, does the ca360 settings go to default ? In your opinion, for 360, what would be the best all around settings ? Plus, can the settings be done via computer ?

I live in Phoenix and have had this out in 115 degree heat. In direct sunlight at that temp it overheats in 10 or so mins. In the shade it kept going for about 30 mins. My S8 phone is 3 mins and 20 mins at those same temps. TL;DR: It is difficult to overheat this camera in normal use.

Ben after checking site after site for 4 days I decided to buy the Kuula Pro software to complete a listing I just shoot. Including download the Action Producers software to get it in to Kuula. I have already shoot 54 great 360 panos. But I cannot find the Action Producers download for my MacBook Pro. To move forward with my clients....who are waiting on me.

Thank you for the review. I'm not very familiar with my cool new camera as I finally got delivery, took three receipt copies and a few phone calls and e-mails to get verizon promotions to comprehend that we bought two note 8 phones. My wife picked the wireless charger and I picked the camera. Both promotions were free with trade in of our note 4s. So far we are very happy getting the charger, (with new type 256GB samsung micro card and the new version gear 360 camera. Especially since they were free. I now look forward to using the camera for several purposes, including surveillance. I think it's a great camera at it's average price. And setup was easy.

Great review. Just toured UK and found it great for all our memories from dark country churches to recording on the London Eye. Another bonus of the rubber ring which is a cool design aspect if planned is the ability to 'rest' the camera laying down with a lense laid down in the ring while charging.

I just received a brand new in the box Samsung gear 360 2017 camera. I realize this is 2021 almost 22 and I was hoping you could help me with something. It seems that Samsung has discontinued the gear 360 app and now I'm wondering if you could recommend an app that would work well with this camera. Not much to choose from but if you have any ideas I would appreciate that. And by the way, seeing Sydney harbor again makes me want to go back. One of the coolest places I ever visited. 🤙

Apparently Samsung's QC is very lacking. I just got a Note 8 with a bonus Gear 360 2017. The darn thing was DOA, have spent many hours on Samsung's customer support before finally getting the message it will be some time before it is replaced, there is an epidemic of this problem. Funny when I told one of the several tech support people I spoke with it was DOA, he said what does that mean!

Great review, it helped me decide on buying the unit. I do have a couple questions for you though: 1) my 4K videos are no where as sharp as yours, what specific setting are you using? 2) i could not figure out how to connect my selfie stick using bluetooth, how'd you do it? seems like the stick and the 360 are both "listeners" not "searchers"... 3) what software do you use (Win10) for production & why? Thanks buddy

So this gear 360 from his hand is 1 version, but about the tripod one? This one is mostly good for selfies and such, well, i can see you can put a tripod too, but it will be with the handle, not only with the eye. So what are the differences? The eye only seems to be cheaper, but the tripod and handle will make it more expensive? and the one with the handle is more expensive, but you can buy a tripod and be at the same price range like the eye + tripod? Which version you think it's better?

Ok now be kind I am a complete novice with a simple question can I just use this as a camera and watch or view photos and footage on my I3 processor laptop, to be honest I won the 360 gear pro in a competition and have a really old phone and really do not want to get a new phone just to use this camera. P.s excellent video and review, just wanted to be sure I will be ok using it as a stand alone camera that I watch via my laptop

Thanks for the review. When you recorded 360 for 1 hour, did the camera split the video into 11:27 minute segments? My Gear 360 splits up the videos into segments.

Good review! I just got mine few days ago and I am using it with an iPhone 7+. As you showed in the review, the file got downsized when I get them from the cam onto the phone. I am wondering if I get a S8+, will the files still get downsized when I transfer them onto the S8+?

Great review, Ben! Saw the Gear 360 2017 at the Samsung store in NYC last month which intrigued me enough to find your channel. The price on Amazon just dropped to $189 so I snapped one up (along with the mini-tripod and selfie-stick you suggested). This thing is awesome - amazing quality in such a small package! Question - you mentioned the "fatal flaw" of how the stitching software auto-adjusts when something crosses the stitch line. I can deal with that with manual stitching software. I'm noticing another issue - the camera exposure seems to flicker slightly as if it's also auto adjusting. Another KZfaqr - TokyoStreetView has a video called "Watch this before buying the Samsung Gear 360 (2017)" that demonstrates the problem. Is this something you're seeing with your camera? Is it possibly due to a camera setting (like auto WB)? Any thoughts/advice? Thanks!

+David Lawrence glad my videos have been helpful! Yeah I've definitely heard of that issue- I haven't had experienced it myself so it's hard to diagnose. My suggestion would be to manually control the exposure as best as you can, maybe that will make a difference 👍

Thanks Ben. There's a Facebook 360 group where this has been a big topic of conversation. When connected to my phone, I see a -/+ control in the camera UI at the top of the screen that brings up a scale -3-2-1 0 +1+2+3. This is apparently a Quick Setting exposure control. I'm using an iPhone and touching it does nothing - maybe it's buggy in iOS? Do you use Android and does this control work for you? Also wondering if you shoot much video on tripod? This problem is not there when the camera is moving but on a tripod it's very apparent.

Hmmm, when I tap the manual exposure control on my 6S, the exposure scale appears, but when I tap the scale to change the value, it disappears. Maybe I'm holding it wrong, lol! 😉 I think I'll call Samsung tech support and ask what's up. The app is pretty buggy in general - don't know about you but I can only get it to work in airplane mode - it crashes with the LTE radio on. Handheld definitely seems like the way to go until they fix these issues. Thanks again! 😄👍 EDIT - looks like I WAS holding it wrong!🤣 Just tried tapping on on the scale instead of dragging and it worked! This app really needs some UI help. Okay now for some more tests with manual exposure enabled!

LIFE in 360 did several recordings with camera in different modes 2000 something resolution at 60 fps for 2 minutes after being saved to phone was half a gig 4k for 2 minutes highest resolution setting was 1.02 gbs so I calculated u wouldn't get any more then 5 hours with a 256gb minded that you only get formatted 243gbs and I also checked at 1080p something 60 frames a second single lense at 2 minutes of video is 432mbs so I calculated i would get 20 hours of video but it doesn't look like the single lenses mode is very good at all and I don't have the money left to just buy a large memory card
