A review of the Samsung Gear 360, 360 Camera. I bought the Samsung Gear 360 at Vidcon for it’s US pre-release. I’ve had the Samsung Gear 360 for about a week and wanted to pass on my thoughts in this review. This video features: unboxing the Samsung Gear 360, Camera Review, Samsung Gear 360 Manager Android App, Gear 360 Action Director PC Software, and tips for shooting 360 video. Overall I think this is a really great 360 camera, I give it 4 out of 5 on the “Topher Scale” — and definitely the best 360 camera I’ve used.

  1. So you need a samsung phone to use the camera… I guess there are more cameras to choose from.

  2. When I uploaded the images to my laptop I noticed that the software made two set of videos, one right side up and another upside down. I guess if you have this on a drone it would be beneficial. The only downside I have is that it take a long long time to process it on a laptop or desktop even with a i7 processor set to performance setting.

  3. thx for the video. I need to buy one of those. BTW you remind me of Michael Rapaport 😜

  4. +Yellow Productions Hello and thank you so much for your presentation and review.
    I have a few questions for you….

    I am still in limbo of purchasing this……

    1) I'm starting my own Youtube LiveStream Channel, and i have an S7 & S7 Edge, so using those is no problem.
    You mentioned it comes with software, and could this be used to connect straight to PC for livestream for youtube cam? being i have so many question i was actually going to ask if we could Google Hangout (phone call, or video)

    2) I do like the idea of the selfie stick and dual opposing cams, so if i am live streaming an interview from outdoors, both me and my guest are on cam at the same time!!

    3) You said almost 4K…..it isn't official 4K?

    I have more questions, but perhaps we can start there!

    Thank you for your hard work in reviewing and sharing this experience. I have a DLSR? Camera and its kind big to carry around.
    so this just maybe my option, and I LOVE SAMSUNG!!

    hope to hear from you soon
    I subscribed to you!
    subscribe back if you can? and ill be having live streams soon!

  5. Quick question…. I am wanting to use the footage from both lenses in a non 360 format…. I'm wanting to shoot car zooming and want the approach and departure angle without needing 2 GoPro's. Do you know if thats possible? Not seeing that functionality in Action Director.

  6. how many hours this camera can record on a fully charged battery and one more question what if you use this camera on a tripod with suction cup hanging upside down will it come our straight on ur mobile device or on pc?

  7. Will you do a review of the new Gear 360 2017?
    I just Pre-Ordered mine today. I hope its better than the old Gear 360.

  8. Nice review. Too bad this camera really sucks. Returned the Gear 360 a few hours after trying it out. Stitching is terrible, and has a lot of distortion. Front and rear images do not match at all as far as the white balance and color saturation. I have a Ricoh Theta S, and it is far superior to the Gear 360. I would hope the new version is better, but it's no longer a sphere shape, which I would prefer.

  9. Thanks for a great video. I've recently come across your channel and what I've seen is really informative and high quality. I think you deserve more subs!
