Overall, it is a good product the problem is when a camera like that Insta 360 X5 exists that has longer battery life, doesn’t overheat, has a larger screen, better app, and so much more I just can’t recommend the Gopro max 2

The camera froze two minutes before the ONLY footage I’d of ever needed. You can hear some of the audio but the picture is frozen. Was the second day with the memory card too was a brand new one. And I missed a core memory that I’ll never get to experience again.

Totally changes creative options over standard Hero cameras. Bit of a learning curve in editing but mainly because the options are vast.

Solid action cam as you'd expect from GoPro. Fun to use. Video quality not as good as GoPro Hero. Don't like that you have to pay a subscription fee to export videos.

For the price, it wasn’t too bad but it overheat so many times. Then it would just completely shut down and I would have to wait till it cools off. I went with a Insta360 X5.

MAXimum 360

This kit is a barebones setup. You get only a few things to get you going, the camera, a battery, a USB-C cable, a helmet mount and a microfiber cloth. All other parts needed including a pole mount to make videos with a disappearing mount you need to buy extra. Would have liked to see at least a pole mount because not everyone buying this is riding something that requires a helmet.
Documentation is limited to a quick start guide, safety instructions, a card with a QR code to subscribe to GoPro Premium for cloud storage and premium editing tools in the Quik app among other things from GoPro.
Once opened you are greeted with a sticker on the screen that prompts you to update the camera before you can use it.
If you have never used a GoPro before you need to download the Quik app to your phone. This app allows control of the camera, the ability to access the setting and access to the files of footage.
A cool feature that I found is the ability to use either both lenses or a single lens. So this is not just a 360 degree camera as I originally thought. You also have the ability on single lens mode to flip from either the front lens or the rear lens.
While testing the camera I notice on the front there is a heat sink below the lens. The camera does run warm while in use.
On the quick start guide there is a QR code to learn more about the Max2. This takes you to the website that has a full 42 page manual for the camera, a link to the GoPro YouTube channel to learn from how-to videos and helpful tips and a link to a support page. This is a well thought out way to access more information about the camera without adding bulk to the package with paper manuals.
After inserting an SD card the camera let me know that the card I chose was not a good choice to use as it was not a fast enough card for video recording. I found that very intuitive for someone with zero experience using an action camera. Unfortunately the SD card is not the easiest thing to remove once inserted into the camera. If you are not careful the card will shoot across the room by the spring launching it out of the slot when you slip off the card.
A key feature of the camera is the replaceable lenses incase they get scratched or damaged. Although I had not found any info on removing them right off, I dd find a marketing video from GoPro on their YouTube channel I saw that they just twist off. The video makes it look easy, however it is quite difficult because they are made to make the camera waterproof so the rubber seal has a lot of friction. Without the lenses on the camera is not waterproof according to other GoPro documentation.
With a lot of features I have yet to explore this is going to be a fun camera to use. So far with taking photos the images appear very crisp even at basic settings. A quick 360 video revealed more features within video playback that are pretty cool. The video resolution is very good as well.
Overall even with a few shortcomings this is a great little action camera.

The GoPro Max 2 is a new upgraded 360° 8K pixel camera from GoPro. The camera size is (W) 64.0mm x (H) 69.7mm x (D) 48.7mm and weighs only 195 gm. It has a 1.82" Touch LCD for on camera controls. GoPro supplies the camera with a 1960mAh Enduro Battery that lasts 60 - 120 min of continuous recording depending on the resolution you are shooting at. The built in GPS geotags the video and if you have a GoPro subscription it will auto upload the video with the built in Wifi. The good news is GoPro gives you a 1 year premium subscription for free with purchase of the Max 2! You get Guaranteed Camera Replacement with exchange for $99USD, Up to 50% off Accessories at GoPro.com, $100 USD Off Your Next GoPro Upon Renewal, Auto WiFi Upload, Automatic Highlight Videos, Live Streaming and Unlimited Cloud Storage of Your GoPro Footage and 25 GB Cloud Storage of Non-GoPro Footage, this is an incredible value.
The camera is exceptionally good at taking photos and stitching them together into a seamless 360° view. It is fantastic for Skate boarding, mountain biking, snowboarding, hang gliding and every other sport. The 360° video it produces is great with no significant artifacts. It's also great for hiking and generally touring around and recording all your surroundings without having to concentrate on capturing a certain detail. The images can be cropped and adjusted in post to emphasize whatever you would like. The camera is also capable of using either camera in standalone mode for 4K imaging
The cameras have a 1 x2.3.3 inch sensor and F1.3 . The lenses have replaceable glass covers
that can be easily replaced if scratched. If you have a subscription with GoPro you can have the camera upload the images to GoPro through Wi-Fi with unlimited storage. The camera accepts a multitude of SD cards. I used a Samsung Pro Plus 1 TB SD card which worked flawlessly. I highly recommend using an SD card that is on the GoPro compatibility list in order to ensure it is fast enough for the camera to capture all those beautiful pixels. The camera comes with a GoPro adhesive mount so you can mount it to your helmet or other flat surface and quickly detach it and use other GoPro mounts with the folding GoPro fingers on its base. I plan on investing in a GoPro selfie stick with a tripod for additional flexibility in filming. The standard selfie sticks are a little too flexible compared to the GoPro model or one of the other more sturdy aftermarket selfie sticks designed for this device.The camera will also use a standard 1/4-20 threaded mount screw mount.
The POV mode creates 360 video with each camera capturing > 180 degrees and stitching it together, together with GoPros incredible stabilization (Max HyperSmooth with 360° Horizon Lock) creates an amazing 8K pixel 360 degree video. In the single lens mode you can capture 4k 60fps 180 degree video. The GoPro Quick app handles the video allowing you to Frame it and edit it, one caveat it is Android or IOS only, The Quick desktop app has been discontinued. You can use the GoPro viewer app in Windows 11, it is a neutered app that can play the 360 video or trim it but for professional editing you will have to export it and use the GoPro ReFrame plugin for premiere or Davinci Resolve. You first have to open the video in the Gopro viewer then export it in a compatible equirectangular format. You can edit the exported video in your NLE app using the plugin. You can extend the camera's function even further with Beta firmware that you can download from GoPro Labs, this gives you access to many additional professional features while letting you keep using the standard features.
I really love this camera, it creates unique video in stunning detail and is virtually a one click process. If you are a professional then it offers all the bells and whistles you could want for 360 video with more being added all the time. With the premium or Premium+ subscription you have access to your videos from anywhere. I highly recommend this for your 360 Videography.
