    Very poor software and hardly usable. THE APP IS IN CHINESE. I’ve tried to use this thing for that past two months and it’s simply not reliable. The software times out and drops the camera for no reason and after only a few minutes of filming. I wish I could return it, but I gave it too many chances to disappoint me. WILL NOT BUY THIS BRAND EVER AGAIN.

    I am very happy with the Zhiyun - Smooth Q-3. I use it nearly every day and have had no problems.

    Honestly it’s cheaply made and doesn’t do everything as advertised very well. Some will say “you just don’t know how to use it.”

    Absolute Garbage Product

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

    From the very start, this product isn't worth the stress. It comes with the bare minimum of instructions to an app that requires activation, which of course didn't work. They suggest writing the company which I did and they reset the serial number in the system to make it work. Finally, I was able to activate this product but if you bought this and needed it immediately? You're fresh out of luck. But wait, it's activated right? Should work right? Wrong. Does your product have four flashing green lights that always come up when it's on and refuses to work? Tough. Try Googling the answer and finding nothing because of COURSE there's no guide explaining what it means. DO NOT Buy this product
