what's the photo resolution?

It's 25.9 MP (7200 x 3600) -- one of the highest resolutions in the consumer grade 360 camera class. They decided to drop the resolution in the newer ones to 14.4 MP. The other cameras with comparable resolution are the Nikon Keymission and the newer Kodak Pixpro Orbit, but those are like 5x more expensive.

Can this camera work without a samsung galaxy with regular pc and usb cable? what software used?

The camera will work and the video/pictures can be off loaded from the camera to computer via a USB cable or microSD card. But you will need a Samung Galaxy phones to access the settings. If I knew this before I had bought it, I would have bought something else. The camera does take good video/pictures in 360 but the camera will overheat and shut off in 20 minutes or so, unless you find a way to heat sink it. I use a little battery operated blower for that.

I read that the 360 is waterproof rated IP68 (up to 5 feet for 30 mins), can anyone verify if this truly is the case?

I got caught with mine in a torrential downpour last summer that was so bad my pack, which is weather resistant and was closed up as tightly as possible, had puddles of water inside. My Gear 360 was sitting in water for probably 15 minutes or so. I figured it would be toast, but to my delight, it was totally fine. No condensation to be seen. I dried it off well and let it air dry before attempting to use it, but the water didn't damage it at all. I'm not sure I'd attempt to actually use it underwater, but in terms of getting caught in the rain or things like that, you should feel pretty safe with it.
