Garmin VIRB 360 Review

The Garmin VIRB 360 is a premium 360 action camera aimed at serious outdoor athletes and data enthusiasts. It shoots 5.7K unstitched 30p video and delivers waterproofing to 33 feet without a housing, a rare combination in the category. Built-in GPS, ANT+ sensor compatibility, and four microphones for spatial audio round out a feature set designed to appeal to Garmin's existing ecosystem of fitness and adventure users.

Reviews acknowledge the high-end specs and robust build quality, but consistently point to value concerns. At $800, it costs significantly more than capable alternatives that weigh half as much, and reviewers suggest you can get equivalent or better results for less money. The camera delivers on ruggedness and sensor integration, but the price premium feels steep unless you already rely on Garmin's data platforms or need the unique combination of waterproofing and resolution without an external case.
