Rank #7 in Best Action Cameras 2026: 10 Ranked, and One AKASO Sold Twice
GoPro Max 360 Waterproof Action Camera
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The GoPro Max 360 is number seven in our action camera guide, at £172.90 with 4.4 out of 5 from 285 ratings. It is the 360-degree option in the list: the name promises 5.6K30 spherical video, 16.6MP 360 photos and 1080P live streaming, and the fourth bullet adds a single-lens HERO mode that records ordinary 1080p when you would rather not reframe everything afterwards.
The spec table is the interesting part of this listing. It gives the item weight as 0.15 g, asks for "1 C batteries required. (included)" even though the box list names an Enduro Battery, and drops one French-language field, "Plein cadre 35 mm", into an otherwise English table. The rest of the numbers follow the name: 5.6K maximum display resolution, image stabilisation listed as yes, hybrid type — although not one of the five bullets mentions stabilisation. The rating breakdown has its own quirk: the bars add up to 100 while the listing reports 285 ratings, so they read as a split rather than counts, and on that split 16 of the 100 sit at three stars or below. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing, not from our own testing.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“I love this camera!Have a GoPro Hero 9 too but this is just next level for skydiving. Captures all of the jump from all angles, great for coaching, debriefing, competition training, tracking and wingsuiting. Quality in 5.7K is great - all you need - editing is actually pretty easy if you do want to reframe and if you just want Hero mode then it's there too.Lots of friends with Max 2 are wondering why they spent the extra money. For skydiving it just works with none of the bulk of an Insta”
Verified purchase“Small, well engineered, excellent image editing software, decent accessories. Very happy.”
