LG didn't exactly blow us away with their lightweight 360 VR headset. Though an slimmer alternative to the bulkier headsets currently available, it didn't really come together. When it came to providing an quality virtual reality experience it fell flat...

LG's 360 CAM is a beautifully designed, very functional, usable 360° camera – the only issue is that you need to think about what is around, above, behind, and in front of you. Let's call the totality of 360° photography the “photosphere”.In the old days...
Despite me taking terrible shots and getting frustrated at times — it sees everything — it is fun to use and the results after two weeks of testing are encouraging. I won't blame the tool – it's the workmanship that needs improvement so it is try, try, tr...

The 360 Cam may be one the LG G5's “Friends” but it's not like the Cam Plus or the Hi-Fi Plus, because it's an accessory and not a module that slips into the phone's body. This makes it the odd one out in LG's initial range of Friends for the G5, but doe...

Software glitches, No MicroSD card included...
The 360 Cam is the only one of LG's current circle of Friends we'd want to spend any time with. If we were choosing guests for a tech dinner party, the Cam Plus would be scratched off the list for being a bit dull, and the Hi-Fi Plus would get kicked to t...

"One of the best current options for taking 360-degree video and stills" If you remain aware of the 360 Cam's limitations, it's unlikely to disappoint. I imagine that in a year or two, 360-degree cameras will have come a long way in terms of image quali...

If you remain aware of the 360 Cam's limitations, it's unlikely to disappoint.I imagine that in a year or two, 360-degree cameras will have come a long way in terms of image quality, and LG's first foray into the market will look decidedly outdated. But...

From the outside, it doesn’t look too dissimilar from the Ricoh Theta S . Its comfy, upright design makes it easy to grip in one hand, and a pair of slightly bulbous 180-degree lenses sit at the top in opposite directions. The camera then stitches these i...
At £100 less than the Ricoh Theta S, the LG 360 Cam is arguably the best 360-degree camera you can buy right now. Admittedly, there's not a lot of competition out there at the moment, as precious few wide-angle cameras can actually shoot in 360-degrees. T...

My very first impressions, on seeing the G5 launch in Barcelona, was that LG was onto something here. The phone itself is striking, and yet perhaps understated. It doesn't ooze glitz like Samsung's Galaxy S7 range, and I think that's a good thing — it's m...

Because it requires a two unit setup, we expected the SP360 4K to produce the best images in low light, and images taken in low light certainly were a lot cleaner than what we could get with the LG 360 Cam and the Gear 360. But in terms of overall sharpne...
