At the end of last week, side by side Galaxy S8 and Gear VR with controller also discovered the second generation of the Gear 360 360-degree camera. Another big advantage is that the new Gear 8,4 can shoot videos in (not quite) 2,2K resolution.

The camera should go on sale in the US on April 21 and in the Czech Republic on April 28. However, according to our information, even test pieces for the media are not yet available, so it is unlikely that in less than two weeks it will be possible to buy the camera in the Czech Republic.

However, Samsung is already releasing a new Samsung Gear 360 (New) application, which comes with full support for the new version of the Gear 360. You can download the application download free from the Google Play Store and is compatible not only with the new Gear 360 (2017) camera, but also with the older version.

From its description, we also learn that it is only compatible with Galaxy S8, S8+, S7, S7 edge, Note5, S6 edge+, S6, S6 edge, A5 (2017) and A7 (2017). In order to use the live broadcast function, you need to have it installed on one of the supported devices Android Nougat. But the camera itself is compatible with newer iPhone models as well as with PCs and Macs.

We got hold of a malfunctioning camera prototype at the Samsung conference:
