Zhiyun Smooth 5S Zhiyun Smooth 5 Upgrade Vesion Gimbal Stabilizer for Smartphone 3-Axis Phone Gimbal for iPhone 14 13 12 11 Pro Max SE2 XS XR X 8 Plus Android Cell Phone Vlogging YouTube TikTok Video

Having never used a gimbal before, this was a fun challenge to pick up and give a try! The connection to the application was easy. Feels good in hand, interface is easy to learn, fits my Pixel 7 pro quite well. The build does not feel cheap at all. Manual stabilization with the joystick is good once you balance your phone onto its mount. There's a few comprehensive guides on the 5S and after having watched a few videos on how to use it, am definitely excited to give this a run in the field. Am certainly excited to produce work with a product that would cost me much more on the DSLR side.Would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to give this a spin!

I used it for recording real estate videos. This makes it so easy. The setup was not as hard as I originally expected. Allows me to make good quality videos like a professional! Very sturdy. The phone does not slip at all

The media could not be loaded. I really like this gimbal. Very smooth. You can download an app to get full controls of your camera on your phone using the physical dials and buttons on the gimbal.Pros: I did a running test and it's pretty smooth! It is like a dslr gimbal, but for your phone.Cons: I really don't like the light it has because of dim it is. Not as compact compared to its competitors.

I owned a DJI OM5 and not used it often because my phone already give good enough stabilization algo and the gimbal didn't add much value. My cousin is into vlog and need a gimble so we were trying out the Zhiyun 5s. It is heavier than the DJI, but the 3 axis gimble gives more flexible tracking than 2.5 axis DJI gimble. We especially like the light feature as it really make the video look different than what a phone shots.
