Halving the video and photo is also possible by turning off one of the lenses for 180-degree wide angle video and images using only one of the camera lens. The day you own a Gear 360 is the day you stop painstakingly panning your phone from left to right for a panorama and get shouted at for not going slowly enough. This isn't heavy-duty equipment anymore, measuring 66.7 x 56.2 x 60 mm - slightly smaller than the size of a baseball - and having a weight of 153g when the battery is included. The spherical Samsung Gear 360 is built to be palmable and lightweight for on-the-go filming, meaning you'll be able to tote it around the world and capture your travels in 360 degrees. Early adopters will surely pay that price. That seems expensive for a tennis ball-sized camera, but then again, the Gear 360 has two lenses and is able to capture everything around you in 4K.
How much will the Samsung Gear 360 cost in the US? Based on exchange rates and competition, it'll likely fall between $350 and $400. The UK also has its Samsung Gear 360 price locked down at £299 (about $430, AU$587), but the actual release date remains a mystery.
The official Samsung Gear 360 release date in the US is still an unknown, but the VR camera did launch in its home territory of South Korea on April 29 for 399,000 won (about $340). But Samsung's got the advantage: it has a popular virtual reality headset on the heads of its Galaxy phone users right now, and it has that important Facebook partnership for content.Īll of this goes to fuel the Samsung Gear VR headset as the de facto method of experiencing virtual reality without having to spend a fortune on Oculus Rift, HTC Vive or forthcoming PlayStation VR.
