DJI Osmo Mobile 6 vs Zhiyun Smooth 5S vs Hohem iSteady M6 vs Insta360 Flow with iPhone & Android

Thanks Z.. The choices one has today is absolutely mind-boggling. The gimbal features are definitely getting better and better with the help of AI. It’s very interesting to see software AI compete with hardware AI. In my opinion, I think hardware AI gimbal , the Hohem M6 is more versatile because you can use it with ANY PHONE, any OS, be it iOS or Android regardless of age or model. As a matter of fact, if you can somehow attach any action camera to the Hohem, you will have a AI controlled action camera gimbal as well. Wouldn’t you?

Will the insta 360 flow work with iPhone 15 pro max?

Wow great comparison. Thanks I'm able to see this video.

Takže by jste brala hohem?

I appreciate your work. It helped me so much in finding the right product in much less time.

Great review!! One issue i have with the m6, Wont stay unlocked!!!I'm on my second m6 in a week span with the same issue!! They have an issue with the lock button, it will not stay in the unlocked position. Once it rotates a full 360 it automatically locks back. Any suggestions?

Muito top o vídeo... o M6 faz fotos 360° igual o Insta360 flow?

Can you connect the insta 360 go 3 with this gimble?

Thamks Zdenka,this video gave me a good idea of all these gimbals- since i have a galaxy s23

Do I need to use the applications?
Bethe reviews are terrible!!

I had the Hohem M6 for a day but the pan motor lock would not stay unlocked. Every time the gimbal turned the motor would lock and it was not useable. I didn’t trust the little plastic lock to last long even if it was replaced so I returned it. Still looking for my perfect iPhone gimbal.

Dear Ma'am, Samsung S23 does'nt need a gimbal.... Stablization of a gimbal can only be checked with a smartohone wihout OIS

Love your effort in making the videos. Got a new subscriber. Love from kenya 🇰🇪

I wanted to add, I just got the DJI Osmo Mobile 6 and it DOES film in 4k/60fps with my Samsung S23 Ultra using the Mimo app. Yay, finally! I played with the Hohem iSteady M6 as well, I did like it, but it was a bit big and not as portable (OM6 folds easily). For me, the winner is DJI Osmo Mobile 6, but I can u derstand why others may prefer the Hohem, it is a great gimbal and does everything and more than the OM6 but for me, I value smaller size and portability and the fact that it can shoot 4k/60 with my Samsung in app, seals the deal for the OM6 for me.

Thanks Zdenka, Very in depth comparison, well articulated! Hohem M6 looks a bit better than Zhiyun 5s though, especially the native AI tracking support, M6 with AI tracker cost much more than Ziyun 5s, I finally decided to purchase Zhiyun 5s.

Very professional review, Thank you.

Beautiful Comparison.

I am in a confusion of which to buy between the Zhiyun Smooth 5S and the crane m3 ad m3s. Which one has more payload? But I like the focus wheel on the Zhiyun Smooth

Thanks. It helped me to choose what I want.

wow what a review...

Excellent. Excellent!!

Hello, it is really admirable that you are responding to all comments. I had a small question, I will place the order according to your answer. Out of boredom I bought Gopro hero 9, my phone model is 14 pro max. I'm thinking of getting the 15 pro max when the iphone 15 comes out. Do you think it would be more logical to buy for a gimbal that I can use both Gopro and my phone? I think the powerbank feature in Smooth 5 will be very useful for Gopro. Because Gopros charge in 1 hour :(

One of the best video i have watch. Straight to the point.

do you think the hohem isteady m6 tiny remote control is a must have? unfortunately the kit i bought didn’t come with it so i was wondering if i should just order the remote by itself right now . i’m using the gimbal for recording content for a restaurant .

Thanks for your honest review! I'd choose Hohem which means Brica Steady Pro Ultimate in my country

Thank you

Im looking at doing holiday vlogging with a google 6 which hohem do you recommend?

Which does 360 photos?

I"m puzzled with your reviews/comparisons. While testing Zhiyun didn't you have problems with connecting it to Samsung s23? I"ve read, that the producer doesn't support this phone and there are serious issues with Bluetooth connectivity making the gimbal pretty much unusable...
Also for Hohem on Samsung phones, it doesn't support native hardware, like lenses, so you can't even use x3 or x10 zoom on it! \Why is nobody talking truth about it?!? It took my a lot of research to find this myself. It's a pity we can't rely on YT reviews...

Which mode is good for selfie video using the main camera? Like walking and recording myself?

In Zhiyun cam app there is experimental mode where it enables 4K 60fps.

One thing I’ve learned the hard way is, can the batteries be replaced. Got burned by a Zhiyun M2.
Great review, really enjoyed.

❤❤❤

Thank you for this informative review. Amazing job!!

Most excellent

I'm torn between hohem vs. Insta 360, I like the insta 360 because of the tracking and it's kinda light, it's good for fast video and easy to set up. I like also the stabilization of hohem and it looks more professional but it will take time for you to balance it and also I have tiny hands I think it would be heavy. I have android phone btw. Which gimbal you think is better for me? Thanks in advance!

Best review of these gimblas i've seen, and i've seen alot of them. Great job!

I have the older model of the Zhiyun, and I loved it until I damaged it. I now own the Hohem iSteady M6, and I super love it. It's a bit easier to use and has a few more things than the Smooth. However, if you're not careful, you can easily misplace the artificial intelligence device. I lost mine after three weeks of receiving my unit. I replaced it now, but it cost me an additional 60 dollars. This is my second Hohem gimbal, I have the smaller iSteady X2, which is the one I carry around everywhere, and the M6 only when I'm doing videos for events I need to cover. I strongly recommend the Hohem iSteady M6.

I wish I'd watched such a video earlier. 2 days ago, I received my OSMO 6, but the Homo is a better fit for me.

Fantastic work

I find Insta 360 is best for tracking
and Hohem is best for stabilization . I don't know what to fo..😔🥲
I am going this year vaccination to mexico alone.
I love tracking because i am alone in vacation.
But i want stabilization which provide me Hohem m 6. But tracking is not good
By Insta wobble. Specially in wind near the Beach and mountains .
So please tell me what should i purchase..???????

Why are they called gimbels if they can't stabilize running or hard walking? My DJI rs3 mini is a Hollywood level of smoothness when I run with my sony camera. But it's too big for my new Xiaomi 13 ultra. I hope you hold the gimble in 45 degrees for best results. why buy them if they not make any good?

I would love to have a comparison between the brand new feiyu scorp mini P and the insta360

The question is. Which is the Best for Android phones? On my S22 ultra 5G probably 60 fps will be not working.

I wanted to buy dji, but you made it easy, I was hesitant about hohem, I will buy it. You made it easy to do it, but why is hohem low price, is its raw materials good?

If I shoot a video while riding a bike off-road using the DJI Osmo 6, can it securely hold the phone? How strong is the magnetic attachment?

Amazing!❤❤

2023 - still NO 60 fps for Android in gymbal apps

Thank you! I have zhiyun crane m3 for my sony zv1. I can use it with my iphone 14 pro with smallrig cage too but wanted a pocket sized one for my phone in addition. I think the Flow will be great for me.
