I now don’t get any more hardware issues. Update: New firmware seems to have fixed these issues.

#GARMIN VIRB EDIT TUTORIAL CUSTOM TEMPLATE UPDATE#

Like I said these issues have now been fixed with a firmware update, so if you get the camera make sure to update immediately.

#GARMIN VIRB EDIT TUTORIAL CUSTOM TEMPLATE MANUAL#

I missed out on a pretty cool filming opportunity because the app wouldn’t connect and the manual side button was not working, which is kinda frustrating. There is a manual record switch on the side of the camera that lets you start recording video without connecting to the app and this was not working for me until I updated the firmware. Since I’ve had my camera I’ve received 2 major firmware updates from Garmin which have fixed all the hardware issues I’ve had, but upon first receiving the camera a few of the manual buttons seemed to not be functioning. The VIRB 360 is still an average camera for photography.

Update: Firmware updates have lead to an upgrading of the photo quality, particularly in low light conditions. There isn’t much that can be done about the low quality photos as it stems down to a hardware limitation, so if you are looking for a 360 camera to take photos I’d avoid the VIRB (videos are very good though!). This is probably the best quality 360 photo I’ve taken with the VIRB 360 and it still lacks a certain sharpness that I’ve come to expect from more expensive 360 cameras. In some situations the photos can look pretty good, outside and with good lighting for example, but in any challenging environment 360 photos look dull and pixelated. The two lenses on the VIRB can only shoot 8mp images each, this is very low for 360 images which need a much higher megapixel count to look sharp. The Samsung Gear 360 at just over $200 can take better 360 photos than the VIRB. I never expected the VIRB 360 to be a great 360 photo camera, but for a $800 device, the quality is pretty poor. Update: After 6 months the app has received several updates and is much more stable now, but it’s not the best app out there. This app is a major frustration and is almost unusable, but thankfully apps can be updated, I just hope Garmin does so quickly because these types of issues should not be occurring after release. Even when everything is working, there is still an issues with the preview image on your phone, it’s displayed in a ludicrously low quality and lags behind reality by about 5 seconds, something I’ve not seen on any other 360 camera app. Changing settings sometimes causes the connection to fail and shooting video causes the screen to freeze. even when the app does work, it does so slowly and inefficiently. I’ve had several instances where the app has repeatedly told me to manually “forget” the wifi network used and reconnect, bit after doing so I simply get the same message again. The connection is laggy and sometimes doe not work at all. The biggest issue I’ve had with the VIRB is using the official app to connect my phone to the camera and use to remotely.
