The design of these sliding doors is not great and the first time I opened the USB door it slid off, leading me to panic that I’d just broken my $700 camera. You’ll find 2 sliding doors which conceal a USB C port and the battery/microSD ports respectively. Most 360 cameras come with a mini tripod but the Fusion’s is by far the best I’ve used thanks to its size and adaptability. You’ll also get adhesive mounts with your Fusion as well as a very useful mini tipod/selfie stick. The Fusion has the standard GoPro mount which you can slide out. It’s great that you can pretty much completely control the Fusion manually without having to connect to an app. The power button doubles as a mode selector and the shutter at the front also allows you to explore the different settings available. Using these you can pretty much control every Function and change every setting. The Fusion has a few manually controls and a LCD display screen. I can comfortably hold it in one hand and while it’s not heavy, it’s got a certain weightiness to it which makes the camera feel premium. The Fusion is pretty big for a 360 camera, but still smaller than a DSLR.

This material is easy to grip so there is less chance of you dropping it. The body is coasted in a type of thick rubber, probably to help with waterproofing the device.

The GoPro Fusion has been designed first and foremost as an action camera, with features that GoPro fans will be accustomed too.
