This is an amazing piece of tech for the Prosumer

I love this stabilizer gimbal, and I have tried a few other brands. The OSMO Mobile has more features, a better build, and a richer app experience than some of its contemporaries. The tacky rubber grip handle, the placement of the buttons, and the phone mount are a few physical attributes that standout. While there is a 1/4 screw thread on the side which can attach a phone mount? (you're already using your phone as camera!? I've gotten used to using it to side mount the OSMO, but I've also purchased the stand which makes it possible for the device to actually stand upright on its own and be mounted vertically on a tripod. Where this shines is in the connection and offerings of the DJI GO app. With active tracking, you simply draw a square around what you want the phone & gimbal combo to follow, and it does that quite fluidly & accurately from quite a distance too. The many timelapse modes, as well as several panoramic modes is a nice, easy-to-use, and usual addition. Plus, the amount of options and adjustments you can make in-app, including gimbal calibrations, and phone tweeks like changing the camera settings to manual (shutter, ISO, & WB) are nice & necessary touches too. I use an iPhone 7 Plus, and it balances & works fine (case removed). The battery life is about 6hrs with average use, and closer to 4hrs if you're using it to capture day-to-night motion timelapse. I do wish you could swap out the gimbal for another attachment that can hold a GoPro, or a small mirrorless camera, but that's probably asking too much. Also, although most people don't have 2 high end phones, I would like the option to control the phone/stabilizer combo remotely, w/the DJI GO app from another device. Instead, you have to purchase the (very useful) Filmic Pro app to do that, and a score of other tasks not available in the free DJI GO app.
All in all, I truly love this device and feel I'm more than getting my monies worth. As a pro, it works an looks more like a tool, and less like a toy or trendy gadget.

Keep your mobile device secure with this Skylab three-axis gimbal, thanks to its anodized aluminum handle. It works with select iPhone and Galaxy smartphone models, and the accompanying rechargeable batteries and charge dock ensure that it reliably powers up. Due to its durable construction, you can take this Skylab three-axis gimbal on almost any excursion.

The Sky Lab Mobile Phone Stabilizer

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a very good mid to pro level tool for improving and capturing quality video and hard to frame visuals. The weight is very light and maneuverable. The joystick & movement is very easy & responsive. Comes with 2 sets of rechargeable batteries that last hours, and a counter-weight for larger phones.
I wish the clamp where you rest the phone was easier to insert, and Bluetooth and a complementing app that could control the stabilizer, activate the camera, and give you viewfinder ability remotely from another mobile device would have made this even better.

4K drones are all alike. Let me rephrase that. If you can ignore the price, the size, the shape, and the weight of most 4K drones on the market today, then you'll find that they're all alike.
That said, other than the god awful orange color of this Autel drone (supposedly there's a white option the Best Buy I went to didn't have), it actually has about the same size, shape, weight, and general specs as the industry leader, DJI Phantom series...the kicker is which one. At a very modest sales price of $699, the Autel X-Star Premium basically fits inbetween DJI's low end Phantom 3 Standard (at about $499/599), and their top (excluding the new 4) Phantom 3 Professional (between $899/999). The price point alone makes the Autel the best deal (regularly $899), but it actually shares the same specs as DJI's Phantom 3 Professional, while also coming with a 64GB microSD card and a better remote control. The better alternative to this that wasn't out at the time of my purchase is the $999 DJI Mavic Pro, which is smaller, lighter, designed sleeker, costs more, but also has enough bells & whistles like folding wings and crash avoidance to make up for the price jump.

I have a DJI Inspire, so i already have the Zenmuse x3. Can I buy this DJI Osmo and remove/exchange the mobile phone gimbal with my Zenmuse x3 gimbal as needed? Thanks!

I wanted to use the mount for a go pro5 and an iPhone 7. Can it hold both?
