At $499, the Gear 360 is firmly priced for the enthusiast interested in shooting content this way. Otherwise, it's arguably out of the price range for those who are curious. That falls in line with where 360-degree imaging is today anyway — many may find...

At £350, the Gear 360 is not cheap. Pick it up, however, and it feels supremely solid and sturdy. It’s around the size of a snooker ball, and its 153g weight means that it feels reassuringly heavy, too. Granted, it is slightly heavier and has a larger pro...
