360 View is Here!

In the coming weeks and months, you’ll see more and more products on our site with our interactive 360 degree product view!

What does this mean for you?

You’ll get a complete 360 view of the product you’re interested in – the next best thing to holding the product in your very own hands :-)

How does it work?

Without getting too technical, we use special technology to take 20 sequential photos while the product spins slowly on a turntable. The shots are then combined to create a 360 view which we then upload onto the product listing.

Here are two examples of products using 360 view:

Bluetooth Headset – BTH002

Otek 5MP HD Digital Video Camera

For a bit of fun, we also roped our CEO Mike into demonstrating how the technology works!

Just drag your mouse over Mike to watch him spin ;)
