Gear 360 2017 features a spherical camera on top just like its predecessor, plus an easy-to-grip handle. When the camera is placed lying down on a surface, the new strap ring offers protection for the lens. The camera is easily attached to a number of accessories by the tripod hole at the bottom, increasing its usability. The LCD display and record button in the handle are also spherical, expressing a sense of softness and emotionality.
