The Akaso 360 was only just announced this week, and we said it “beats Insta360 and GoPro for value” in our in-depth review. That was before a Prime Day price cut too, which hammers home the brand new 360 camera’s low-cost credentials – it’s now just $169 at Amazon in the US, or £168 at Amazon in the UK.

You simply need to apply the coupon / voucher and then head to checkout to bag the $30 / 15% discount respectively. For UK shoppers, that 15% discount applies to three other memory card bundles. The Akaso 360 was already the cheapest-ever 360 camera by some margin, and Akaso has further let loose in this Prime Day deal.

Amazon Prime Day deal: Akaso 360
Our Akaso 360 review, in which we gave the low-cost action cam maker’s first-ever 360 camera a four stars out of five rating, described it as “a fine low-cost alternative to rivals from Insta360 and GoPro”.
The Akaso 360 is affordable, simple to use and pretty capable. Image quality and 5.7K video features lag behind Insta360’s latest 8K flagship models, the X5 and X4, but the Akaso 360 still creates good-looking 360 videos and photos with minimal effort.
It’s more in line with the Insta360 X3 – which shows how far Insta360 is ahead of the competition. Be warned, though: the Akaso 360 is not designed for rough use, nor is it fully waterproof. If you need a camera to document watersports or extreme activities, you’ll be better off with the Insta360 X3 or GoPro Max (2025).

The closest you can get for value to the Akaso 360 is the Insta360 X3. It was updated with the X4 and consequently the X5, but remains on sale new and has a comparable feature set to the Akaso model.
In fact, the X3 is the more versatile 360 camera of the two because it’s waterproof up to 33ft / 10m, whereas the Akaso 360 is not. If your adventures involve water, I’d go for the X3. Another alternative is the GoPro Max (2025), which is also on sale for a record-low price. I’ve included links to the best deals below.
