DJI 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

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.

You must have this item it works like magic

I was very hesitant to purchase this, given the poor reviews and support for Android users. Additionally, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE was not listed as a supported phone for this gimbal. My wife owns an iPhone, so I ordered it anyway thinking that I could at least use her phone. -- Does this have the full functionality of DJI Mimo on an Apple phone? No. But, do you need it? I'm not a professional videographer, but this works great for making social media content and taking family videos of our newborn.The ONLY complaint I have: You can't use this with a phone case. Two different type of mounts are included. One clip on, and one stick on. The clip on side hooks are not wide enough to accommodate a phone case, even if it's able to stretch wide enough. Well, you'd think an easy fix would be to mount the sticker to the back of your phone case. But, not only does it take 12 hours to cure, it won't even work. When you turn on your DJI OM 4, the gimbal will refuse to work. I'm not sure if its a weight issue, or what. There are multiple reports of this on YouTube, Amazon, and DJI's own forums.BUT... don't let that keep you from purchasing this. I'm sure there is an easier solution. There are some reports of people cutting/drilling out a hole in the back of their phone cases and getting it work with the sticker. -- Anyone want a money maker? If DJI or another third party came out with a phone case that was compatible with this gimbal: Enjoy your newly found income.

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!
