I purchased this device because I saw a gimbal used with the GoPro on youtube and wanted to get some same quality and smooth footage during our family vacation. It wasn't until I realized how expensive the "OFFICIAL" gimbal was that I realized it was out of my price range for the rare times I would actually use it. After several searches and Youtubin... I found this device and I pulled the trigger.This thing is GREAT! At least for what I need it for and the price point. I will say that Hohem's tech support is VERY responsive. I had a few questions and sent two separate emails to them, which they responded within several hours. The remote app is great and works well. I was able to update the firmware with no issues.The only 1 con... with the EXCEPTION that ALL other gimbals have .. (even the "Official" GoPro has) is motor noise. It picks up too much motor noise, but if I set my go pro to wind noise only, it reduces the noise dramatically. I would like an external mic to get great audio for our vacation, but then I would have to buy that darn mic adapter (Boo!)Well worth the price for those who need it for casual use. Good enough for me

I found the product to offer a similar features to 99 percent of the other products on the market today. What I thought fell short was the calibration sequence. I attempted to calibrate it several times with only having success once. The unit seemed to drift away from center after panning up or down and using the “snap” to center control. Other than that drawback the unit performed very similar to many other units I’ve owned and tested. Finally the price is hard to beat for those looking for a entry level unit.

This is my first gimbal of any kind, and I am very pleased with it. Took it on a trip to get some better quality videos out of my camera, and was not disappointed. I think this is a great value.Pros:- works as expected, keeping the camera steady while moving, walking and panning- quiet motors- excellent battery life- handy joystick for correcting / adjusting motion- phone app allows additional control of certain settings, e.g. how quickly the individual axes should converge to where you want the cam to be when panning (speed of "follow") etc.Cons:- manual is a bit skimpy, but contains enough info to get going- the design of the bracket holding the cam could be improved a little -- having to switch out a dead battery in a camera is not a fast process, and getting the bracket back on can be especially challenging (holding the gimbal, the cam and the bracket with one hand while trying to thread the screw into the bracket with the other hand -- there's gotta be an easier way)- turning the gimbal on or off takes several seconds of pressing and holding of the power switch; wish the switch was either a slider or simply worked fasterI made a mistake of assuming that the on-off switch doubles as a remote trigger for the camera (since it has a red dot painted on it), without verifying that it actually is one. Would be great if it were -- the manual makes no mention of it. If anyone knows how to get that button on the gimbal to work with e.g. a GoPro Hero 5/6 as a record button, do share!There is also an undocumented mini-USB port on the bracket. Having learned my lesson about assumptions, I'm *not* going to assume that it is for charging the cam from the gimbal while it is in use. If it is in fact for that, someone will have to point me to an adapter that is male mini-USB on one end and usb-C on the other.

I liked everything. There was only one issues while doing the calibration process. But, I was able to figure it out. Therefore no star deduction needed. Great product.

I was looking for an inexpensive Gimble for my go pro. Thought I’d take a chance on this one. Must say was glad I did. Seems to be a quality product and helps stabilize footage very well.
