I love how easy it is to balance the phone. That is the main pro I considered for this gimbal. Other gimbals require some time and balancing which drives me insane. Long battery life, I recommended checking the phone weight with case to ensure it is compatible with this. I also like how it can fit in my pocket for easy traveling.

As a mobile platform gimble, this phone option is amazing. From the various options provided within the initial presets to aide in learning how to setup, use, and take the best images and videos. Mobile photo and videos have taken over normal photography options with what’s being made avail today. Find my normal camera spends more time in it’s carrying bag these days when want that quick shot, my mobile is my go to. It does take a little bit to set this up for first use with a firmware update during the initial setup. Once past this and going through the various training videos provided within the app, some calibration to support the phone better (Samsung and Pixel Pro), thigs got only better. This is very responsive in hold to movement for vertical and horizontal filming. For first timer’s, this may seem a little overwhelming going through the initial steps depending on how familiar you are with what you’re presented. For those with experience and/or knowledge, should walk through fairly easily from adding the app to your mobile device, establishing the Bluetooth connection, and getting to the operational play state. Setup and play time took appox. 30 minutes due avid background with DJI product, other gimbals, and photography/video. Part the time included playing around with all of the options presented to annoying some of my family while out and about taking footage of high-rise buildings. Someone special had their own paparazzi for a little bit.
The gimble itself looks and feels very sturdy, easily unlocked and opened for attachment of your mobile device. The magnet system on this and phone clamp attaches to the phone securely. Perhaps one of the most notable changes added are the zoom and focus options as they aide you in getting your best shots. It does telescope out to aide in those 360 degree and weird position footages where you need the extra length to capture appropriately. I would highly recommend this for any new or current photographer looking for something to use with their mobile device.
To note, had to add one of my own wrist straps and capture cord to hand form my neck in the event I should drop the unit as nothing like this was provided in the box; a foul perhaps with the cost tied to this.

I’m a wrestling dad and have been using a gimbal from china before it was a thing here that lasted me about 9 years. I wanted one that would track fast as they scrambled around the mat and let me focus on coaching. This one performs great! Sometimes it loses them and I have to recenter but for the most part keeps up the pace. It also doesn’t get confused when someone else runs across the screen like the Insta I tried always would. The quality is also very sturdy even when I have the telescope fully extended since it’s placed on the mat next to me. This performs great and is easy to use. So glad I decided to not just settle for the Insta’s performance and traded for this instead.

As a content creator and someone who values quality equipment, I can confidently say that the DJI gimbal exceeded my expectations. From the moment I unboxed it, I could tell this was a well-engineered piece of gear. The build quality is top-notch—sturdy, sleek, and lightweight, which makes it perfect for long shoots or on-the-go filming.
What really stands out is the stabilization. Whether walking, panning, or tracking fast-moving subjects, the DJI gimbal delivers incredibly smooth footage. It’s intuitive to use, and the companion app adds another level of control and customization, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced videographers.
Battery life is impressive, lasting through extended shoots without needing a recharge. The setup process is also quick, allowing me to get started with minimal downtime.
Overall, DJI has once again set the standard with this gimbal. It’s a must-have tool for anyone serious about capturing professional-quality video with ease and reliability. Highly recommended.

The Osmo Mobile 6 includes several shooting modes, including ActiveTrack 4.0, which allows the gimbal to automatically track and follow a subject, and Gesture Control, which allows you to take selfies or start/stop recording by making hand gestures.
In terms of battery life, the Osmo Mobile 6 has a run time of up to 7.5 hours, which is an improvement over its predecessor. It also features a USB-C port for charging your phone while you're using the gimbal.
Overall, the DJI Osmo Mobile 6 is an excellent smartphone gimbal that offers a great balance of features, ease of use, and portability. If you're looking for a way to improve the quality of your smartphone video footage, the Osmo Mobile 6 is definitely worth considering.

I've done a couple of video projects in recent years, and not only is the gimbal a huge factor in that it provides ultra-smooth footage, but the handle and the tripod feet both allow for even more creative angles. This is an asset for videographers or even somebody looking to vlog their travels, thanks to its portability.
My biggest concern before buying was the magnet for your phone. While I haven't used it in much of an action setting, the magnet is incredibly secure, and I don't see the phone falling off.
There are so many other features I have yet to explore, but I'm anxious to do so!

High Quality, Great Design, Android Owners Beware

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The DJI Osmo Mobile 6 Gimbal is a very high quality, well designed mobile stabilizer.
But as an owner of the Google Pixel 6 I have to point out some of the negatives right from the start.
First, the DJI MIMO app is not available in the Google Play Store. In order to download the app you must go into settings and allow download and installation of apps from unknown sources. That’s right, you must download an app from a Chinese company directly, without being verified by Google. This of course is accompanied by a warning that downloading this app may cause harm to your device and other apps on your device. Not very comforting. In addition, not all features work on Android phones. Each phone model is different and therefore this may vary by device.
Also, I found that my phone was hotter in the Osmo than it is normally when its in camera mode, and the battery drained much quicker.
One other issue is the magnetic clip holder. It goes on the Pixel phone on top of the volume switch. If placed exactly in the middle of the phone it presses on the down volume switch and turns the volume all the way down.
The focus scroll wheel is also not functional with my Pixel phone.
The device itself is very high quality, very ergonomically designed. It is very well balanced in the hand and does not cause hand fatigue. All buttons and switches are placed within easy reach.
DJI has videos in the app to fully explain the operation of each switch.
In the box you get the magnetic phone clip, the stabilizer unit, an attachable tripod and a charging cable.
After you download the app, the Osmo 6 will automatically turn on when you attach the phone and off when the phone is removed.
One of my favorite features is face lock while in video. Your phone will lock on your face and follow you around. You can place the phone in the Osmo with the tripod, put it on a flat surface and record yourself while moving, and the camera will follow you. A push of a button will automatically switch between portrait and landscape.
Image stabilization is of course a main reason for buying this device and it performs better than any phone by itself.
There is a scroll wheel for zooming in and out as well as a button for switching between video and photo.
There are way too many features to mention, however DJI does a great job of explaining the functions in video and with hints that appear on the screen.
I would love to recommend this device, and I would to any iPhone user. But if you are an Android user I would weigh the positives and negatives before purchasing. I don’t know why DJI has put Android users in this situation and I hope that this situation changes sooner rather than later. This could easily be a5 start review if not for the software issues for Android.

A gamechanger for folks that want to get a little deeper to take photos and videos. It is a snug fit for my Samsung Ultra 24 WITH rugged Otter Box Case, but this really makes it easy to take some outstanding and really cool shots! I have only had it for a month and I attend many different race tracks including Daytona and Gainesville. I used at the Rolex 24 this year and I am really looking forward to the Gatornationals in Gainesviile! Highly recommended!

I’ve done my research on phone gimbals looking for the best one to suit my needs. DJI makes incredible products for the value. I use this for social media content and the quality you get from this gimbal is unmatched.
Easy to learn how to use and comes with instructions built into the DJI app.
The subject tracking is great. Gimbal is very smooth and battery life lasts long enough to shoot whatever you need. I highly recommend anyone filming on their phone to pick up this gimbal

Bought at a discount as an Excellent condition open box, only missing some foam stickers to adjust the grip to different phones but I didn’t find that I need them with an iPhone 11 Pro. The grip isn’t touching any buttons.
Still getting used to all the functionalities during a family trip, making videos while walking and taking selfies. Overall a good quality gimbal, easy to start up, but requires some time learning all the options and shortcuts to access them in the DJI app.

The OSMO mobile provides me the stability and features I enjoy in my smaller DJI Pocket 2, but allows me to use newer mobile devices to use improved cameras or features down the road. It’s super compact, incredibly easy to use, and has a great battery life! We’ve used it to record adventures at Disney with our kiddos, and it was fantastic!
The app offers *many* settings to be configured - I’d recommend taking some time to review and play around with them to get the most out of it!
