Samsung's Gear 360 VR camera lets you live-stream VR in real time

Samsung shows off a new motion-controlling sensor at its Unpacked event in New York. The new device makes it easier to search movies and games.

It lost resolution from previous version. I wish I could help them select features. Particularly timelapse features. Battery is dead in 2 hours usually. There needs to be external power pack option to keep it going for hours. And definitely needs higher resolution for 360 space.

Hi, I have 2 Samsung Gear 360. Both was working fine until today. Impossible now to save pictures on my phone with one of the Gear 360. I reset the Gear, I reinstall the app but still same issue. Can you help me ? Thanks

I hope they do some type of upgrade for the old one. I just got it. I want to be able to go live with it as

Just thought I'd point out a couple of problems. First of all, my wife and I both have the Note 5, and live streaming works with mine, but not with hers. The live stream button just doesn't show up. The only difference between our phones is that I'm on T-mobile and she's on Verizon. The second problem is, the live streaming quality is REALLY terrible. I wasn't expecting the world, but at least a decent picture. Definitely do your research before buying this. In the end, I love it for plain 360 video on the fly. I ended up buying the old 360 for 360 pictures, and keeping this one for video. The Gear360 Action Director that came with the first camera makes both of these camera's super awesome for editing video, adding effects, making 360 slideshows, combining clips etc... If you want something more high end, Spend about $900 on the Vuze Camera. It's worth it.

If you can put a gear 360 camera on a car's driver seat and live stream the video to a gear vr headset, with some remote control access to car, you can drive car everywhere far away from the car.

Why can't we find any information anywhere about a US release date? Does anyone have any information?
