This is something that you won’t want to miss, Human Eyes has just launched the Vuze XR VR Camera. This 5.7K dual use VR camera gives you both 360 and 180 formats in on compact camera. It is now available for pre-order so I would not wait. At $439 the first batch will be flying off the shelves. With the camera, you also get the Vuze VR mobile App for either iOS or Android, as well as the Desktop software for either Mac or Windows.
The Vuze XR has a very sleek design and the controls are simple and smartly laid out. With the ability to live stream to social media this looks to be an instant winner in the market and a very serious contender for the top spot in consumer 360/180 cameras.
I’ve been promised a review unit to give you the real scoop on performance, so stay tuned. In the meantime here are the release details and some cool images and sample videos.
