I really love my 360 camera. Use it everyday. I fill my 128 gb memory card multiple times a week. I use it on my helmet when biking for work. On a selfie stick when skiing so that it looks like I have a personal camera man following me (example https://www.instagram.com/reel/CnFtVsMJd39/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M... )
But yeah, they haven't taken that much off compared to traditional action cams. The frame rate and resolution after reframing is the blocker for many. And hard to do that with the current available sensors it seems like, and no one right now wants to gamble on spending much on R&D for launching the next gen.
The problem is that you’re always at a sensor deficit because you need so much more resolution to cover a wide field of view. When sensors and chipsets would finally catch up, user expectations would grow to match. Now we’re up against physics: Can’t add more resolution past the diffraction limit, and larger sensors are impractical for super fisheye lenses.
