OM 4 - Handheld 3-Axis Smartphone Gimbal Stabilizer with Grip, Tripod, Gimbal Stabilizer Ideal for Vlogging, YouTube, Live Video, Phone Stabilizer Compatible with iPhone and Android

Attaching a video I made in only minutes at the park. This thing has so much potential. The ease of use and the app DJI provides really allow for some amazing video tricks! The quality of video will depend on the phone you use, but I’m using an iPhone 11 Pro Max which has amazing cameras. Tips: the magnet is a great idea but I do not feel comfy with permanently putting it on my glass phone. I purchased a case separate from what I have usually and put the magnet on that. Now , that case is my “Gimble Case” and I made sure to place the magnet in the center. I simply take my case off, and put my “Gimble case on” and I’m good to go! The spin feature adds some great cinematic shots and the motion time lapse is so much fun especially with clouds! The included tripod is such a nice touch, and definitely needed for the shots you’re going to want to take. DJI could have charged this separately so, it’s nice they include it in the box. I also purchased a monopod for this and the active track feature is definitely some future tech we get to have right now! No camera man needed, simply hold up two fingers ( make sure gesture controls are enabled ) and it’ll start recording and following you! I love this thing, and I love the price point. No balancing needed but just in case DJI builds in auto balancing and manually adjustment into the app. I suggest this to anyone who wants to get to some great shots for YouTube or their family videos!

I researched the DJI OM 4 extensively before purchasing it. The quality has gotten better with each generation. This last generation features a magnetic clip on/off mount for your cell phone. It's very intuitive and you can use it with or without the DJI app. With the DJI app you'll have a bunch of pretty cool features and effects. With just your phone's native video/photo app you of course still use the gimbal's stabilization features. The included tripod is very handy (get it?) and the threads at the bottom of the gimbal are the same as most other industry standard mounts and extension poles, making it very useful on different kinds of stands/tripods. The OM 4 folds up very compact. Some reviewers have said that it's "pocket sized". Well, it sort of is "pocket" sized if you have a larger than average pocket. You're not going to cram this into a pair of jeans, but you probably could easily fit this in a coat or jacket pocket. The battery life on this gimbal is very good. After using it off and on throughout the day, leaving it stored without recharging and then using it again a few days later, it still held about half the charge. I would say that's pretty good usage, without recharging, for most people using it over a weekend or short trip. Like most USB connected devices, this gimbal is very easy to recharge. Lastly, software updates to the gimbal are periodically pushed out from DJI via the app. It's all pretty intuitive and seamless. I don't usually write long reviews but this product is definitely a "recommend".

I cut this over the newer 5 OSMO primarily for the extra battery life and true and true design. I used it at Disney world for consecutive 12+ hour days and NEVER got below 50% charge (even using it once to add as little more juice to my cell phone) Sorry simple to use, calibrated amazingly, dirt stay shots... The 3x3 panoramic is perfect for larger shots with or without people. The tracking is amazing. I love that I can put it is stand by mode. Only drawback is having to install the app from outside the official app stores, but that only took a couple extra seconds. This thing is awesome. Really light. I had decided if prior ask me what it was, how it works, and we're amazed at how much you get for a low price. And the ability just to use the great camera on my phone and quickly be able to use my phone as a phone thanks to the super strong magnet is so convenient.

Overall, smaller than the Osmo Mobile 3, 2, and 1. I'm upgrading from the Osmo Mobile 2. Off the bat the grip is more sensitive. The buttons are all still there, but the functions are assigned quite differently. Standby mode (introduced in Mobile 3) is a cool improvement. Gesture control is very neat. I looked like a Japanese schoolgirl while doing it, but it was effective and started tracking my face a second or two after I did the gesture, turning on a three-second delay to start recording. The Mimo app is definitely an improvement over "DJI GO 4". Mimo connects directly with the Photos app in iPhone, so you don't have to go through an app to access your photos/videos. There's two things stopping me from giving this five stars though: 1. The magnetic clamp ironically, is the biggest downgrade of the new model. The ability to add heavier phones to the gimbal comes with a cost - it is noticeably less secure than the previous models. If you have a case, your phone will fall off the magnetically attached clamp (the one you attach to the gimbal) with any willful thrust or whip. This is why DJI offers magnets you can attach to your naked, un-cased phone. I haven't used them yet, but I'm sure that's why they offer both options. I also had some issues when panning an active target. The active target tracking requires excellent light and not too rapid movement from the subject and operator. As with the previous models, it will get lost easily in poor lighting.
