Price, Limited use, Average image quality
The Ricoh Theta is compact camera that captures unique 360° spherical images, but it's on the pricey side and battery life is disappointing.

Captures unique 360-degree images. Wi-Fi is supported. Android and iOS compatibility. Very compact.

Pricey. Very limited battery life. Image quality isn't the greatest.
No question about it, our review of the Ricoh Theta S has been very different indeed -- as befits a camera so unique as this one. Usually, we pair the analytical with the subjective in our reviews, poring over every fine detail in the lab before we head out into the real world with an idea of where...
We've got to say, the Ricoh Theta is an odd device. We like the ability to pan around full 360 degree images and zoom in and out of all the details, as well as the remote trigger functions, but we do wonder if it actually has any other practical use.
i wasn't really interested when i got this , to me it was nothing more than a useless gadget shipped in mail , until the first photo. the awesome factor is huge with this one , it takes sometime to figure out the pc/mac app and video recording/uploading , yet its so simple to do on mobile.

Poor Image Quality, Poor in Low Light
Get the warranty. The design does not protect the lenses and if scratch them, Ricoh will not repair. I scratched my latest one which I only had for 3 months and the tech literally told me I'm just out they will not repair.

Its easy to use. Small

If you scratch it, your out. Very poor low light and poor video quality.
The Ricoh Theta is a unique little camera. It's very lightweight, pocketable (in its included soft case, that is), and is very easy to use. It's more responsive than most compacts - you can turn it on and shoot pretty much right away.
