MAX2 overview

The GoPro MAX2 is a 29.5 MP 1/2.3-inch 360° camera with a built-in lens, announced by GoPro in September 2025.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits travel and everyday carry, video, bad weather, and water and adventure. It is a weaker pick for paid jobs that need a backup card and eye-level shooting in bright sun.

New, it sells for $299.99 to $499.99 at the 3 stores we track in the United States that have it in stock. It launched at $499.99.

Worth comparing it with the GoPro MAX, Insta360 X5 and Insta360 X4.

Low light & noise

1.0 µm pixels

29.5 MP on a 1/2.3" sensor, ISO up to 6,400

Bigger pixels gather more light each, so they tend to show less noise at high ISO, but sensor design matters as much. For real noise at ISO 6400, these sites measure it:
