Great Go pro on sale for $250 on sale cant beat it good value

Seems great so far. Haven’t gotten to use it much yet.

Great range of view, video time, sound, and recording. Happy I chose this one because I was going with the basic mini go pro!

it seems good, I need to use it more and update the review

Works awesome for quick recording...use suction cup mount for my hellcat and i roll race cars at the track

Overall good GoPro Camera, still haven't figured out yet how to use it!

Enjoyed the 360! Much better to see all around my bike when riding.

One of the best 360 cams out there , has everything you need out of the box

I bought it to wear to a gathering, I thought I could just clip it on my shirt. It just wasn't what I needed.

Very good quality, first rock, what's going on here

Sweet 360 action camera go pro is a solid choice !!

Its ok. Not horrible quality, but not great either.

It’s cool to be able to record 360 degrees. But that line of division is kray. I haven’t tried any other brand of 360 degree cameras so I can’t compare atm. Again it’s still nice to record all over and decent for the money if on sale.

I like the quality of the frame perfect for the road trip

I was excited to try out the latest GoPro Max, but I was disappointed to find it looked identical to the original version released in 2019, with almost the same specs. Digging into this further, I found the 2025 version includes enhancements like better stabilization, improved battery life, and more advanced editing tools, but overall it was just a slightly refreshed device. The GoPro Max retains the compact and rugged design typical of GoPro cameras. It's slightly larger than the Hero but still fits comfortably in hand. The new color touchscreen is bright and responsive, making it easy to navigate through settings and preview shots. The camera is shockproof and waterproof up to 16 feet, suitable for underwater use. The camera offers detailed footage with its 5.6K video resolution. The Max Enduro Battery extends recording times, lasts longer in colder weather (very important for skiers/snowboarders, etc.) which is beneficial for longer shoots, however there is no advertised battery life given by GoPro that I can find. I’m also disappointed the Enduro battery cannot be swapped the regular enduro battery, so I can’t use all the batteries I have for my regular GoPros. The camera also features stabilization and horizon leveling, helping to keep shots smooth and level. The GoPro Max 2025 performs well in 360-degree recording mode. The PowerPano feature allows for panoramic shots without ghosting. Editing 360 footage is straightforward with the updated Quik App, which includes object tracking and automatic transitions. The GoPro Max captures spherical audio with multiple microphones, offering immersive sound quality. The wind noise reduction is effective, making outdoor recordings clearer. The mounting system is compatible with standard ¼-20 tripod mounts, and the invisible pole effect is useful for dynamic shots. The single MicroSD card slot simplifies storage management. The GoPro Max 2025 offers good value for its features. It is more affordable than its competitor the Insta360 X4 and X5, though it lacks the 8k resolution and some of the advanced features of those models. Overall I found the GoPro Max 2025 is a solid choice for capturing adventures in detail. Its combination of high-resolution video, durable build, and useful features make it suitable for both casual users and content creators. However, if you need the highest resolution and advanced features for professional use, the competition might be worth considering.

The videos are OK. Ease of use it’s pretty easy to use. However, the videos even in 5K seems mid level.

Even though I have used some GoPros over the years, I didn’t quite know what to expect with this one. To briefly sum up my thoughts, I am quite impressed, even if there are a few things I am unsure about. Shooting with this was really a lot of fun, and easy. This was my first time shooting 360-degree footage, and while there were some challenges, I enjoyed the new perspectives. The results were fantastic. I also really appreciated that it could still be used as a more conventional GoPro (Hero) as well (although more on that later) I liked the Quik software for a lot that it could do (editing, after the fact reframing, voice control, data overlays, panos), and “generally” found it intuitive, powerful, and, well…quick. That said, while it was good on the phone, I wish there were an easy/cheap way to do some of the editing on the desktop (where I prefer to do a lot of this type of work). Hardware-wise, it is about what you would expect from GoPro. Compact. Well-built. Rugged. Waterproof. The touchscreen is large, bright, and responsive. Nice, easy access physical buttons for the most essential needs. It is compatible with GoPro Mounts, of which there are a seemingly endless supply, but also has ¼ 20 mounting threads that open it up to tripods and standard camera accessories. A nice add, finally. Further, it comes with lens covers, which despite being somewhat hard to remove, are what I would consider essential given they need to remain unscratched. It would be nice if they would offer replacements for these lenses, as a competitor in the space has just done. We shall see. Lastly, while I have found battery life to be “good” so far, I am going to have to give it some time to see how it works longer term. I may need to pick up another battery or two. As I said earlier, shooting with this is a lot of fun. I do have some reservations about a few things, and to add to those, I do think you give up a bit with lower max resolutions and image quality than some others in the space. Ultimately though, I like this camera. It delivers good output, is built well, provides a high degree of versatility, and opens new doors of creativity with all of its capabilities…all at a more affordable prices than others in the market. As always, check your use case, but for all that you get I think the value is there.

Returned it. I’m a scuba diver. They do not make a waterproof housing for this camera. I emailed the company asking for help. I was told they do not make a waterproof housing or a waterproof remote for this camera.

I have owned a couple different go pros the last few years and they have always been great. This 360 MAX by them is even better. The looks of it are what you'd expect from go pro, simple, sleek and small. The small form factor is a plus cause it allows for easy use in any environment. Using this 360 camera is so easy. It's pretty simple to setup the go pro app and to get the camera going. I started testing it with content I want to make for a Vlog I am starting. It performed very well. The telescoping handle I used with it made it easy to get a clear view of all the footage I wanted to capture. I used the 3k mode so I can make my videos 60fps and it looks great. The stabilization feature works very well and really made a difference in my videos. I recorded so much content on a single charge and it still has life left. The battery is definitely excellent. The audio, both vocals and sounds of the environment, were very clear and easy to understand. The app is phenomenal. All the features for editing and how quick it is, really made creating and editing my content a breeze. I am so impressed. Great job on another great product GO PRO!

I have a couple of action cameras including older versions of GoPro. On a previous Hero I had an overheating problem that would shut the camera off while in use but a firmware upgrade corrected that issue. Since the upgrade I haven't had any issues. I've used a suction mount on my car for long road trips with my car club and always had some pretty cool results. Using time lapse The new kid on the block is an update of the original MAX. I've never had a 360 camera so this has been fun to play with to see the different results. Of course you can use it in Hero mode as a regular camera but the fun starts when you switch it to 360 mode. Using the telescoping pole mount really kicks the action videos into a new realm. There is a mode that virtually eliminates the pole from your videos resulting in some close up drone like imaging. Stabilization helps smooth out the bouncy captures and with the Quik app you can capture your shots directly on your paired phone. With previous GoPros I would do road trips and set up the camera with still action shutter to record hours of driving. Using the Quik phone app I can make sure I frame the camera view perfectly and switch between multiple cameras. Pretty slick. I can't wait to get a pole attachment for my suction cup mounts for my car and do some cruising, maybe 3 Sisters or Tail of the Dragon or that stretch of road outside Oatman, Arizona. Should make for some epic action shots. It's waterproof as well so I'll grab this for kayaking and fishing but I'm too old to surf or ski so I won't be using this under extreme wet conditions. Also in the box you get a helmet mount base and camera attachment. The Max 360 itself now accepts a standard 1/4" x 20 camera mounts and with the flip down tabs you are able to install it on other GoPro mounts. You also get an adapter for the 1/4" pole mount to the camera tabs so you can tilt the camera for better selfie videos shot. The included battery has longer life than previous models. I haven't used it long enough to verify the claims. It is recommended that you use high speed memory cards and in the box it came with a 64GB SanDisk Extreme card. Perfect for most applications and you can download to your phone or the cloud (with optional subscription). A nice little bag comes with the kit so can stow unused mounts and the charging cable when not in use. A couple of wishes or complaints... - I wish the lens caps had a small tab to make it easier to remove. I had to fiddle with them for a while to get them off. Not a big deal if you are sitting in your car or on a ski lift but if you are getting into some action then it can be a bit of a hassle. - I also wish is that somehow they could incorporate a button on the pole so you can snap pics or start/stop videos rather than relying on the camera button or phone app. - because the camera is waterproof the access hatch for the battery, memory card and charging port are in a very tight space. I find the hatch door makes it a bit more difficult to pull the battery if you need to do a quick swap and the same goes with the memory card. Call it fat finger syndrome I did have to struggle a bit to pull these things. The awesome features definitely outweigh the nuisances and with a price drop from the original Max I think this is a true winner. More camera than I need but a really good add to my GoPro stable of cameras.
