That is fantastic footage.

In a way it's still a "trick" kind of like the bullet time effect by swinging it around your head on a string, but it's probably much more useful for the GoPro action camera crowd who want shots of mucking around by the pool or whatever.

The IQ is still pretty bad though, and notably all those shots are wide.  Wide shots are better for these cameras as essentially you're cropping in to get a tighter angle so with a low bit-rate 4K codec anything tighter than perhaps 15-25mm is going to look like Youtube in 240p.

When these things get affordable 8K they will take over.  Everyone will have a smart phone and one of these to video their family or whatever.  Being able to hold it out in front of you while you're mucking around in the park and then be able to choose camera angles in post like every 1-shot, 2-shot, and group shot combination had a camera recording it is completely next level.  

You can have a normal camera that records 16K RAW and it still won't capture the funny moment AND all the reactions to it.  This will automatically record everything.
