Samsung Galaxy Gear 360: Great for the Galaxy S8, not so much for the iPhone<article>
<section class="page">
<p>When the
Galaxy S8 was unveiled in late March, it wasn’t the only premium product in Samsung’s catalog that received a massive overhaul. The
Gear 360 camera also got an impressive redesign, turning it from a
somewhat clumsy sphere into a neatly pocketable stick.</p><p>But the 360’s case isn’t the only thing that changed. The device’s cameras have actually been
downgraded—from dual 15MP fisheye lenses to dual 8.4MP fisheye lenses. Still, despite the lesser lenses, the Gear 360 is now able to record in 4K or broadcast live in 2K. Additionally, an updated Gear 360 app makes the new hardware compatible with a wider range of phones, including the iPhone. Beyond all of that, the new Gear 360 uses USB-C instead of microUSB, and there’s still a slot for an SD card.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3198406/android/samsung-galaxy-gear-360-great-for-the-galaxy-s8-not-so-much-for-the-iphone.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
