On board real-time stitching.
I would recommend this for anyone who doesn't need a high-resolution 3D virtual - it's the only consumer line camera that I know of that has onboard stitching (GoPro has the fusion and 360 but stitching the videos makes it unusable for the business that I have.) As soon as I download the videos to my pc I can watch them immediately on VLC using the mouse to pan and zoom. I got a couple extra in case they go off the market because I don't know when anybody's gonna come around and do this kind of thing again it seems like it's phasing out. The price is phenomenally low for what you get.

Had to return after less than a day of use. (Updated 6-18-21)
I really want to like this camera. It takes decent 360° photos with only minor stitching artifacts. The video is less impressive, but I didn't expect much at this price point. My main use is for shooting 360° location photos. The photos look great, but after less than a day of use, the power button stuck and wouldn't power on the camera. After a reset, the camera powered back on once, and I had to leave it on and charge it in my car to assure the battery didn't run down between locations. After I returned home, no amount of pressing the reset button would power on the camera. Returned and have a replacement on the way. I'll update the review once I get the replacement.Update- Amazon replaced the defective unit quickly. I used the replacement camera on 4 separate days over the course of a week. The power button on this camera has worked flawlessly. It takes great photos and I can say I am very satisfied with the replacement. I have uploaded the photos to both Facebook and Google Street View and they are recognized as 360° photos. This is why I had to come back and change my review to 4 stars. I think for the price, most users will be very happy with the results from this camera.Second Update 6/18/2021After using the replacement camera very little over the past 6 months, I need to update my review. I wouldn't purchase this camera. I took it out on a short hike in late May 2021. When I turned the camera on, it wouldn't power down using the power button. It became very hot and I was afraid it would catch fire, it was so hot. I finally had to let the battery discharge before it was made safe. Since it is still under the 1-year warranty, I used the contact form on the company website to send a request for an RA number to return it for warranty work. No Response! After waiting a week, I sent an e-mail to the company support e-mail address. It has been over another week and still no response. This is terrible customer service and after the failure of 2 units I can't recommend anyone purchase this camera. The power button needs a total redesign, and customer service is totally AWOL. Spend your money on a 360 camera that is better quality, I know I will be.

Does the job I guess
I mean it does work as intended, mostly.The app does work and takes images and video and saves it to your SD card correctly but streaming doesn't work and the logo doesn't show up on images and videos when its turned on and shown in the preview. Its very buggy and sometimes the WiFi just so turns off even when I'm charging the camera and sometimes it just freezes the preview when I'm walking taking pictures with my helmet.The camera is decent I guess, Except for the alignment of the lenses. Theres a seam down the side that can't be adjusted in anyway unless you take it apart and do something about it. The quality isn't the worst but it isn't high quality unless your looking at it from far away lol. Its hard to plug in the charger and screw the mount to the phone at the same time and the camera is loose in the mount for it being screwed to only one side.Now For what I a originally wanted the camera for. Google Street View. It is NOT Google Street View Ready not what it claims to be. I mean if you download it from the camera and upload it to the app it will work that way but they just strait up lied.So I mean for it being the cheapest camera I could find its not that bad cause it works.

Great beginner system
A great beginner system with training videos included. You will need a backup power plan. Battery is small and doesn't last long. Auto splice works very well. Everything included.

Not as bad as they say..
For $65 I think I got a pretty good deal. Granted, it's not the greatest camera in the world. In low light it has a lot of graininess; so much that at first I thought I had a ton of dead pixels. But it's fine in the daylight. It does support the resolutions advertised. That said, I've taken to calling it "The Webcam of 3D Action Cameras". It's definitely nothing to write home about. And the company is out of business, so you won't be getting any updates. You CAN still get firmware updates from their website (and you will need the latest one to get the PC connection to work). Also, there is a utility (its' just an empty file you put on the SD card) that tells the camera to work as a webcam. But, you can either do one or the other, so to get back into normal mode you have to delete the file on the SD card (you'll need a card reader to do that). Battery life is pretty short, but it will last long enough to fill up a 64gig memory card (which is about 30 minutes of video @4k). Compression leaves something to be desired, but it's still better than what I was expecting (at $65 I was expecting it to make AVI files).And there is a little door on the bottom that covers the sd card and the power connector, that if you use a standard tripod will be covered; meaning that you won't be able to run it from USB without an adapter. And they advertise said adapter on their website ($14.99 for a little aluminum riser). But you can't get it because the company is out of business. BUT... If you spin the big fat nut off of the little bendy tripod they give you, and replace it with a standard nut, then there is plenty of room for the door to open.All things considered, I'd say that even without and future tech support, it's worth grabbing.

Experiencia decepcionante, ¡no la recomiendo!
Compré esta cámara 360 a principios de enero de 2023 con grandes expectativas, pero lamentablemente, mi experiencia ha sido bastante decepcionante. Aunque al principio la cámara cumplía con su función básica, notamos desde el principio que se calentaba mucho incluso con un uso moderado.El problema se agravó cuando, después de menos de un año de uso, la batería explotó y la cámara se abrió por completo. Este incidente aparte de poner en riesgo nuestra seguridad, obviamente también dejó inutilizable el dispositivo. La calidad del producto claramente dejó mucho que desear con esta situacion.Además del incidente con la batería, la constante y excesivo calentamiento de la cámara era una preocupación que teníamos desde el inicio. En varias ocasiones, tuvimos que esperar a que se enfriara antes de poder utilizarla nuevamente, lo cual era bastante molesto y afectó negativamente la experiencia de uso.En resumen, mi experiencia con esta cámara ha sido sumamente negativa. No solo la durabilidad del producto es cuestionable, sino que la seguridad también está en entredicho después del incidente con la batería. Basándome en mi experiencia, no puedo recomendar esta cámara. Es importante considerar alternativas más confiables y seguras en el mercado.

This 360 camera is awesome quality and easy to use.
I Iove this 360 camera so much the quality blew my mind for the price. I bought a 360 camera just last month and despite it claiming it was recording 4k it was grainy and terrible quality but I decided to upgrade and wow for just a tiny bit more money this unit is amazing and its very easy to use the only thing I'm not as crazy about is the battery hardly lasted for much time but I can always use an external battery pack.
