The GoPro MAX2 is GoPro’s next-generation 360 action camera, released in late 2025 as the successor to the original MAX from 2019. The MAX2 captures true 8K 360 video with two 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensors, delivering 5.6K at 60fps and 4K at 100fps, with slow-motion capture also supported. Twist-and-go replaceable glass lenses come off by hand in the field, so a scratched lens doesn’t mean a totaled camera. This accessory bundle includes a 4-foot extension pole, two additional Enduro batteries, and a 64GB SanDisk microSD card.
The perfect bundle for starter or casual drone photographers
A 360 camera captures video in every direction simultaneously, letting you decide the framing after the fact rather than pointing the camera at a specific subject during recording. The MAX2 records the full sphere around it, and the GoPro Quik app on your phone then reframes the footage into flat 4K videos from any angle. Selfies, third-person follow shots, and dual-angle recordings with the subject and reaction in the same take all pull from the same 360 capture.
True 8K is the resolution the MAX2 records at, achieved by stitching two 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensors together in-camera. Post-stitch output remains at full 8K rather than dropping to a lower resolution during stitching. Slow-motion capture also works at 5.6K at 60fps for 2x slow motion or 4K at 100fps for 3x slow motion. GoPro Labs firmware unlocks bitrates up to 300Mbps, plus 10-bit color and GP-Log encoding for post-production flexibility.
Replaceable lenses are the design decision behind the MAX2’s durability rating. A single scratch or crack on a permanently attached lens would force a full camera replacement, but the MAX2’s lenses twist off by hand in the field for a quick swap on your camera. The lenses are made from hardened optical glass with water-repelling and dust-resistant coatings. With a waterproof rating of 16 feet, the MAX2 also lets you film underwater without an external housing.
Six microphones on the MAX2 capture spatial audio to match the 360 video, with Bluetooth microphone support for external mics. Built-in GPS also tags footage with location, speed, and elevation data, useful for skiing, mountain biking, or aviation shots. The accessory bundle in this deal includes a 4-foot extension pole for third-person selfie-style shots, two spare 1960mAh Enduro batteries, and a 64GB SanDisk microSD card so you can start recording immediately out of the box.
GoPro released the original MAX 360 camera in 2019, then went six years without a follow-up 360 model. The MAX2 arrived in late 2025 with the 8K jump, replaceable lenses, and expanded professional features. At $369, down from $570, this bundle brings the MAX2 and the essential accessories below the camera’s MSRP. If you shoot mountain biking, skiing, motorcycle rides, or travel content, or you’re upgrading from an older 360 camera, this bundle includes what you need to get started.
