    Really takes shooting videos to the next level. As a film student, it’s impressive to see the quality of footage I can capture with this gimbal & my iPhone.

    This thing is awesome. Keep the camera from being shakey throughout along with features like tracking someone so I don't have to worry so much amount repositioning the camera the whole time. My only problem was with setting it up and understanding how to operate it with the material provided. Nothing YouTube couldn't teach me though.

    Used this to stabilize our phones when we live-streamed my sister's wedding. I would highly recommend using one of these especially for a longer period of time, rather than holding your phone up for an hour.

    Not For Go-PRO

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this item thinking it would work well with my GoPro. It is okay but the extra weight of the go-pro plus necessary adaptor makes the motor run overtime, and leads to lots of noise. I'm sure this is fine with a phone, but not good with the GoPro.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Overall good stabilizer just not iphone plus friendly at least not for me. Hard to follow instructions when they arent in the right language. Good battery just dont how the clamps are to hold the phone in place. Grip is okay not the best tho but does the job.

    This was a pretty cool purchase. I don’t have the steadiest hands so this helps keep the image stable. There is a bit of a learning curve, but it’s a good product.

    This is the first gimbal that I've ever bought and it is great! The motors are smooth, the controls are responsive and It's definitely a plus to not have shaky video anymore when shooting with the iPhone!

    Previously tried the DJI Osmo Mobile 2, but it died after just 4 days of normal use. This one has been going strong for 3 weeks now. App on Android is buggy though, so I just use OpenCamera.
