YI unveils 360 VR live virtual reality camera
News

YI Technology has updated its website to state that it has upgraded the YI 360 VR livestream resolution to 4K.

When the YI 360 VR was announced as a development project earlier this year its streaming resolution was listed as 2.5K. However, YI’s product page for the 360 VR now says: “Finally live stream it all, in 4K”.

As well as 4K livestreaming, the YI 360 VR will also offer 4K in-camera stitched videos and 5.7K still photos and videos (with desktop stitching).

360 Rumors has also spoken to a beta tester of the YI 360 VR who dispels the rumour that the camera will have image stabilisation.

The YI 360 VR price tag will be $399, which has excited many 360 camera enthusiasts, as this is far cheaper than many other cameras, like the Garmin VIRB 360, that offer the same resolution.

A YI 360 VR release date is widely expected in September 2017.
