So I'll break my experience up into two sections. Aesthetics and performance.Aesthetics:The packaging: the packaging amazing. Opening Zhiyun's products feel premium and this was, by no means, any different. The white box, the new tech smell, the layers and packaging, the sponge to protect the equipment, it was all an amazing unboxing experience.The device: Everyone that held the gimbal shared the same first reaction as me. It feels premium. The handle feels sweat resistant like Velcro. Very grippy and amazing. It also feels sturdy enough to tank a drop or two.Performance:Set-up: basic one two set up. It's super easy, super quick. I actually took time to balance the phone (something unnecessary) and it actually balanced very well. But even just putting the phone in there it worked just as great.Operation: the joystick is very grippy, very nice. It's fun. To use. Very very snappy. I love the follow mode.Locking: the magnetic lock is very very cool. Reliable too. Powering on the gimbal when it's locked keeps the motors disabled. This is very safe. No strain on the motor. No damage. Only wish I had was the orbit had a lock too.Final words: the gimbal is light, small, study, beautiful and very very fun to use.
