Every angle. Every detail. The GoPro MAX2 is the only True 8K 360 camera on the market — GoPro's most significant camera launch since the original MAX, built around the Emmy Award-winning 360 technology that the original established, and extended to 8K resolution, 10-bit full-range colour, six-microphone spatial audio, built-in GPS, twist-and-go replaceable glass lenses, and in-camera modes that deliver final content without editing. For UAE content creators, extreme sports participants, travel videographers, and anyone who wants invisible-pole selfie footage, drone-like perspectives, and professional 360 content from a waterproof camera small enough to mount on a helmet — the MAX2 is the full-capability 360 camera.
True 8K resolution is the MAX2's headline specification. At 8K — which GoPro states delivers up to 21% more resolution than any competing 360 camera — the footage contains enough detail to reframe into any standard resolution, including 4K, without visible quality loss. Reframing is the core workflow of 360 camera content: shoot everything in 360, then cut out the specific angle, POV, or selfie you want in post. At True 8K, the reframed extract retains full 4K quality rather than the softer, compressed result that lower-resolution 360 footage produces when reframed.
10-bit full-range colour with GP Log encoding captures over one billion colours — the professional colour depth that retains gradation detail in highlights and shadows for colour grading in post. GP Log enables the dynamic range expansion and exposure recovery that professional cinematographers use on cinema cameras, now available in a 360 action camera. Photographers can extract 29MP 360 stills from the footage or shoot directly to photo mode.
The six-microphone spatial audio array is the most comprehensive microphone configuration in any 360 camera, capturing directional audio from all angles that can be reframed alongside the video in post. When the video reframe cuts to a forward-facing angle, the audio mix follows — the sound from that direction is emphasised, creating an immersive audio-video experience that single-microphone action cameras cannot produce.
Built-in GPS is a MAX2 exclusive — no other 360 camera includes GPS, enabling location data and speed overlays to be applied to footage in GoPro Quik without a separate GPS device or mount. Twist-and-Go replaceable glass lenses are made from durable, water-repelling optical glass — if a lens is scratched or damaged, remove and replace it in seconds with no tools, no calibration, no return to a service centre. HyperSmooth stabilisation applies GoPro's industry-leading electronic stabilisation across all shooting modes.
In-camera POV and selfie modes deliver final-cut content without post-editing — point at yourself or your activity and the camera crops and stabilises the output automatically. Invisible pole mounting removes the selfie stick from the shot in 360 mode. Compatible with 35+ GoPro mounts and accessories plus universal 1/4-20 tripod threading.
