GoPro Max Review | Trusted Reviews

 

The GoPro Max may be the action camera makers second 360 effort, but don't think of it as a sequel to the Fusion – it may be much more than that.

Easy to use;Simple editing;Good environmental audio capture;Multiple fields of view

Non-360-degree video quality not near Hero 8 Black level;Cheaper alternatives are now plentiful

GoPro Max review

 

The Max supersedes the two-year-old GoPro Fusion and improves upon its predecessor in every way

Mind-blowing 360 video ; 360-degree photos ; Sturdy construction ; It’s easy to get great results ; Fantastic app support ; Flippable screen view

Image stitching can look glitchy ; High price tag

GoPro Max review

 

Higher spherical video resolution and a simpler editing process is a major step forward from the Fusion, but is the GoPro Max polished enough to be your go-to action camera?

5.6K 360 video 360 video reframing On-camera stitching Digital stabilization Fits on existing mounts

Limited shooting modes No 360 slow-mo Low-res 2D footage Poor in low light/ underwater

GoPro’s new Max 360-degree action camera is hell-bent on bringing spherical video to the masses. A new suite of on-camera processing removes the major pain-points from 360-video production, and integrates editing and reframing tools into the GoPro...

GoPro Max review: Everything an action camera should be

 

GoPro Max review: Everything an action camera should be

Really simple to shoot with ; Editing from the mobile app is easy ; Durable build ; Fits most existing mounts and handles

It's not cheap ; Video captured in Hero mode isn't as good as an actual Hero ; Sometimes struggles with exposure and shadows

One of the most versatile cameras to date, thanks to its dual-cameras setup and 360-degree footage possibilities It's easy to use and easy to edit footage afterwards. But if you want 'normal' video then the Hero 8 is your better bet.

GoPro Max review

 

Shoot first, frame later

Easy to edit 360-degree video ; Easy to edit 360-degree video ; Decent audio capture

16:9 video caps out at 2.6K ; Seam lines noticeable ; No 360-degree editor for Windows

If you need the shiniest, sharpest footage around, get the GoPro Hero8 Black – but if you want ultimate editing flexibility, nothing tops the Max

GoPro Max Review

 

Nothing combines action cam and 360 video as well as the Max. There's a clear direction for improvement but it gets so much right and makes working with 360-degree video an absolute dream

Costing S$740, the GoPro Max 360 camera is attractively priced but its software needs to be improved to be easier to use.

GoPro Max review: A smarter, easier-to-use 360 camera

 

360 still has some growing up to do, but the GoPro Max is a solid step forward for the format. While stitching and image quality don't take a giant leap forward, the Max offers a solid user experience and excellent mobile app.

Excellent mobile app ; Great image stabilization ; Good audio quality ; Rugged and waterproof ; Keyframe-based reframing controls

GoPro Max review: Much more than a 360 camera

 

GoPro wanted to make a 360-degree camera that regular people might want, and in that regard, it's succeeded. The lower price point, the added flexibility of Hero mode, and improved stabilization definitely mean Max is a capable camera whatever action...

Superior stability ; Fun tools like 360 TimeWarp and PowerPano ; Improved app and UI ; Touchscreen for much easier setup

Fewer video modes ; Some low-light video “twitches” ; Stitching is good but not always perfect

GoPro Max review

 

Shoot first, frame later; meet the future of videography with the GoPro Max 360 camera

Creates great-looking, dynamic clips ; Multi-function capabilities ; Solid app experience

No traditional 4K video capture ; No PC editing app (as of Nov 2019) ; App experience needs work

We went into reviewing the GoPro Max thinking it was a 360-degree action cam for enthusiasts; we’ve come out realizing everyone could benefit from having one. Hit record and forget about framing (within reason), then edit your footage in the app. The...
