After using this product for about a week, I'm pretty happy with the Zhiyun Smooth 5. Even though this is my first three-axis smartphone gimbal, I've experienced some different brands from friends and below are some points I like about it: The Smooth 5 has a lot of controls including a large focus/zoom wheel and button on the gimbal. It's pretty handy and can be controlled with one hand, which means we would have another hand free during outdoor activities like hiking or kayaking; Compare to DJI OM 5 (6.4 hours) and Feiyu Vimble 3 (10 hours), 12 hours of battery life and 2 hours to fully charge really makes a big difference; It's definitely heavier than DJI OM 5 (10.3 oz) and Feiyu Vimble 3 (13.7 oz) but 21.7 oz is roughly a Venti latte from Starbucks, which is pretty ok for me. Plus it can also clip larger phones, even for iPhone 13 Pro Max. Just some of my thought after using a week and there're still a lot more features to explore. After seeing some videos from other buyers online, the magnetic mounting fill-in light looks really cool and I'm planning to get'em. Hopefully I can find out more new tricks in the future.

I like how this gimbal stabilizer works, it helps take pictures and videos much better than without. My phone has a stabilizer but this gimbal helps even more, it also tracks and follows so you are not out of frame. I like it.

I bought this 3 axis gimble to use with my Galaxy note 20 ultra working good enough for the price. The app is a lil buggy but i got good video and great b-roll. I bought this over the DJI osmo 6
