Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the Karma Grip's video quality, stabilization, and ease of use. The gimbal and its compatibility with GoPro cameras are also appreciated, along with the added benefit of charging the GoPro while in use and the inclusion of a protective case. However, some customers have expressed concerns about its battery life, price, motor noise, and size, as well as the fact that it is not waterproof.

    Purchased the karma grip to go with my GoPro Hero 5. Grip works great and easy to use. Only downside is short battery life, about 1.75 hrs and the camera feeds off the gimbal battery as well so the gimbal will die when camera is still fully charged. Slow recharge time(6hrs) with stock chargers, but a quick charger can be purchased for a 2 hr charge.

    Awesome product with one flaw

    The Karma Grip really makes for some great video. I took it hiking and the footage was amazing. My 8 year old daughter used it as well and it even looked great with her using it. We hiked about 3-4 hours and I took a lot of video. The battery on the grip was still at least half charged. It charges the camera as well. It does take 5-6 hours to recharge the grip so plan on buying an Anker quick charge for about $15. This will charge it in about 2 hours. Now the fault- The GoPro Hero 5 has a glaring issue. When you take the USB door off, the sound becomes very muffled. When you place it in the grip with the door off, it is even worse. A lot of my video taken while hiking, I could not here my voice or my daughter's very well. I am guessing it is due to the waterproof housing so when you take the cover off, the sound channels through that opening and to the mic. I tried the wind setting as well but it still sounded bad. So...If you do not care about the sound, this thing is amazing. I had no issues with operation and all my video had perfect horizontal. If you need the sound, and are using a gopro 5, then you might want to look elsewhere. Keep in mind the GoPro 4 has no issues with sound in this grip.

    Smooths out your video dramatically, removing the nauseating feeling you get when playing back your GoPro footage. If you have a Hero 5 Black and want to give your video a more professional look, this gimbal will greatly help you achieve that goal.

    This product does exactly what it's supposed to. Keep your video smooth and professional. I would recommend for video but when it comes to audio the gimbal makes an audible sound that ruins the audio of your clip. I don't use the audio for my projects so I don't even care! Works just great for what I need it for.

    Simple to use and seamless with my Hero 5. Lack of joystick control, like on the DJI Osmo, and sub par audio are the two knocks against. Though, if you already have a GoPro and are looking for a simple handheld gimble, it's not a bad choice. Also would like to see weather resistant features on future models.

    The Karma grip is an excellent accessory for the GoPro Hero5. It is amazing how well it reacts to movements to keep a smooth video. It gets a little crazy if you set it down for a second and it certainly takes practice to understand how it will react to your movements. I wouldn't film without it though!

    This is the first version of the GoPro gimble. My biggest issue is that when the power done, the gimble is out of commission until you recharge it. It doesn't make sense to not have replaceable batteries when the GoPro has it. I'm sure the next version of the GoPro gimble will address this issue.

    I bought the Karma grip for my Hero 5 and Im in love. The stabilization of the video is incredible. First time I tried it was with my dog running in the snow and it was super smooth the whole video, even though he was running la crazy. I love love love the stabilization... would recommend it for everyone that likes to shoot videos.

    I love the stabilization impact on the imagery. The grip is a little finicky and sometimes does not start up the way it should and needs to be reset. this can be an issue if speed is of the essence when you are shooting. the footage, however, when it works is incredible,
