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

[@touie98052]

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?

[@ZdenkaDarula]

You are very welcome. Yes the choices today are crazy. The AI tracking makes a big difference. That is a good question about the action camera. I think I’m gonna send Hohem question about this.

[@nocturnal1551]

I’ve see a video somewhere on KZbin where someone attached a gopro and used the AI module to track. Pretty cool

[@WORLDTHEWAYISEE]

Hohem did confirm on one of their facebook post comment section that we can attach action camera but obviously can not control it through app, I got mine M6 2 weeks back and Gopro is balancing very well (not the best fit though, some sort of strap would be good if one of the 3rd parties can make it) and yeah I also tried with media mod and I was just about able to fit my gopro with mount in M6 but afraid that I'll spoil the rubber clamps on M6 due to media mod cold shoe mount cutouts. Overall it works with action camers but could be improved 100%.

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.

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.

[@stephenquinney6086]

@@ZdenkaDarula I just got the Feiyutech Scorp Mini P smartphone gimbal. It s terrific. Well made. Takes the weight of my IPhone 13 Pro in a Smallrig cage with anamorphic lens and adjustable ND filters without any problem. It’s payload is around 500g. And it’s very well priced especially given the quality. I tried the Smooth 5S and while it can just handle the weight without the cage but with a Moment case, the arms are not quite long enough and I found they hit each other doing certain movements. I’m trying to figure out how much I will care about app integration. I have filmic legacy which works with the Smooth 5S. But I much prefer the handling of the Mini P. And the shutter button on the Mini P works with Filmic Legacy which is handy.

Absolutely. I am done with testing gimbals myself. Both of them have fun doing this and want to be part of it, so why not? It is the best to test it with few people. Lots of people ask me in the. comments what happens if your switch faces so I thought let’s try this. I’m glad I did. Lots of clarity here.

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

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Thank you so much

[@RussiaDemais]

Great review! As samsung user I can tell that this brand limits the function of the gimbals apps (their pro camera app are powerful enough btw), and because of that I always look for features in the gimbal that bypass the need for the app. Maybe in the future if possible you can get one of those Xiaomi, Vivo, Asus or Pixel to see if they unlock something else. Since I mostly film riding a bike with one hand, to be possible to use the "director's view" I need a gimbal like OM6, but I also want the hardware features of the M6 (time lapse without app and XY range). I hope someday they could merge both and build me that Frankenstein. Btw, you are the only one that mentioned the remote control in the M6 (not even Hohem mentioned in their video), this is a VERY big deal if someone needs to make the gimbal longer to film above or below something, or control the gimbal from distance.

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Thank you very much for your comment on sharing your thoughts. Yes, I think that they will create something smaller down the road. They all are getting better and better every year. I think I’ll have him should push more for the remote. It is absolutely a huge advantage to have it and I think they are missing on marketing opportunity there.

[@RussiaDemais]

@@ZdenkaDarula do you have the Insta360 Extended Selfie Stick or a stick that can handle heavy gear on top of it? Maybe you can show them the potential of it by making one of your creative videos using the stick + M6 and its remote control.

[@bohelms9803]

Thanks! I need some help with deciding whether a gimbal will solve our use case. We have a daughter that plays a lot of basketball and we film all of her games with an iphone. We use a tripod from time to time, but space is often so limited in the gyms we play and it's often tough to fit a tripod on bleachers. So, most of the time we hold the phone horizontally and film which is tough on our hands and arms. I'm thinking that a gimbal would be more comfortable and allow us to use the joystick to move the camera side to side as the players move from one side of the court to another. Is my thinking correct? Is it overkill to buy a gimbal for this purpose? I'm leaning towards the 360 or the Hohem, but their may be better options that are less expensive considering our limited use case. Any help or recommendations that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated!

[@ZdenkaDarula]

If you get insta360 flow and enable tracking, it will track your daughter anywhere she moves and you won’t have to use a joystick

Wow, thanks for you're review. I am here watching because I bought a smooth 4 sealed for 10.00 at garage sale and when I opened it and looked on YT how to use...wow so complicated for what I want to film and actually all have a learning curve and I thought gimbles we're more plug and play lol. I film jewelry hauls and flea & antique markets so I have a feeling Zhiyun smooth 4 will be something I just won't reach for because of me fumbling with it and the weight. Am I overthinking this and give it a little focus time and learn the smooth or switch to a simpler one? any input appreciated.

[@ZdenkaDarula]

To be honest, all the gimbals are having the same learning curve so it doesn’t matter if you grab something else or if you grab the one you already have. The more you use it the easier is going to get…. You might be surprised by you will get it faster than you think.

I can always use the tripod from my Weebill S on the base of the Insta360 if more stability is required. Thanks again as you are the only one with such a comprehensive look at all 4 gimbals

You are very welcome. I think in your case you are doing the right choice if you already have one big gimbal. I think that Insta360 will get only better as they will be adding more features.

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

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Thank you for your support. That feature is only available on Insta360 as they use their AI feature which is only theirs

[@bilsanmachado746]

​@@ZdenkaDarula Obrigado... qual gimbal você indica para além de filmagem tirar bastante fotos. Estou na dúvida entre M6 ou Smooth Q4

[@kesavachandran6313]

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

[@ZdenkaDarula]

You are very welcome

[@RickBarlow]

Another excellent comparison video. This one helped me decide. Just ordered the Flow with your Amazon link.

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Thank you for your support… I am glad this video gave you all answers

[@sushilsoni584]

Does hohem support telephoto lens of a phone..

[@ZdenkaDarula]

It depends on what type of phone you have

[@techguyMD]

Got the 360 flow yesterday... First half the menu was in Chinese or Japanese.. today it's normal.. then when tracking with my pixel 7 it's constantly floating.. like a wobbly mess making you seasick... Then when trying live mode I can't figure out how to do it at all.. something about docking the app and allowing others to be on top? Huh? It's ridiculous. Finally with my small Spigen case on the clamp pushes the volume buttons... I give up.. this simple gimbal is a PITA to operate. I'm a professional videographer with full size mirrorless Nikon's using a MOZA air and mini-p.. no problems.. I'm sending this thing back and getting the Hohem.. it seems better for my uses.

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Yes, it is not ready for android phones yet. They should’ve specified it on their website or launch a bit later once they actually finish everything…. I think in your case, Hohem would be the choice.

[@fahdhasnain979]

Great comparison. Plz make a comparison of all in one gimbals like moza aircross s vs feiyutech scorp mini

[@ProactifyHub]

Very nice content. Which cheap tripod or monopod would you recommend for hohem M6?

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Unfortunately, I’m not really familiar with tripods. I would say any can do as long as it’s not too cheap and too light

[@ProactifyHub]

@@ZdenkaDarula that's exactly my concern. Either mono or tripod, I wish to do some crane shots. Hohem + iphone it's already some weight

[@ninthislandrc]

Hoping you don't consider this comment "too long" to read to the end, as there is a very important question awaiting. But, before I get to that... THANK YOU for being the first...and, at least as far as I'm aware, only...person to cover the use of Android phones with these gimbals (ESPECIALLY in regards to the just-released Insta360 Flow). All...and, I do mean ALL...others have focused exclusively on iOS (which baffles me, considering Android handset usage outnumbers iOS usage by approx 10-to-1). Also, thank you for going into extreme detail regarding the functions of each gimbal, and how they truly compare against each other. So far, in the other videos I've watched, they either only covered the basics, or haven't even done an actual comparison, despite what some of their video titles claime (ones even had the words "in-depth comparison" in the video titles, yet there was no actual 'comparison'...the video was nothing more than an overview of the features of the three gimbals in the video). Personally, I've got Zhiyun Smooth 3, which I've had for several years, and I've been looking to replace it. I also use a GoPro Hero 8 Black, and recently added an Insta360 X3 to the collection. Within the next few months, I'm also planning on adding the tiny Insta360 Go to the collection, as it's perfect for mounting on, or in, RC vehicles (for a "first person" perspective). The question these past several months had been - between the DJI Osmo Mobile 6 & Zhiyun Smooth 5 - which to get...and, then, out of the blue, Insta360 releases the Flow, adding another contender to my list. Truth is, when I was just considering the other two, the handheld tracking features was the most important feature, to which I was leaning towards the Smooth 5 (as it seemed to have the better tracking between those two). However, seeing the tripod tracking feature of the Flow, that feature also became of extreme importance, as I instantly realized how valuable such a feature could be when shooting RC videos. At the same time, I wasn't even aware of the Hohem M6, so now I need to consider all four as possibilities...but, still, 'which'. So, taking into consideration those two features - handheld tracking & tripod tracking - between these four gimbals, which would be your 1st & 2nd choices (in order of preference), and why? I'm hoping to place the order next week, and would really appreciate some input/insight into those specific features related to these gimbals. 🤙🏼

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Thank you for your comment. In your case I would go with Insta360 as tracking will be best for you and you will much easier time…. I wouldn’t even consider a different one .., I didn’t catch what phone you have.. I hope iPhone as Androids don’t have much there yet…. If you have an Android I would stay with DJI

[@ninthislandrc]

@@ZdenkaDarula Thank you for your reply...and, regarding the Insta360 Flow's tracking, I've come to the same conclusion. As for which handset I have, it's the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. Regarding Apple, I'll just keep it "polite", and just say I'm fairly anti-Apple. As for the DJI, after watching several reviews, it seems to have the worst (or, close to the worst) tracking. I realize DJI's compatibility with Android handsets might be the best (my current/third drone, as well as my first drone, is/was DJI), but I'd MUCH prefer "tracking reliability" over "extra features/functionality & Android compatibility". Besides, as mentioned in the video, Insta360 is constantly releasing app/firmware updates, so it's (fairly) safe to assume that at least some (if not all) of the features/functionality the iOS version currently has over Android should (sooner or later) come to Android.

[@MarkoMarkolovic]

Which gimbal would you recommend to record sporting events?

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Insta 360 flow because of the tracking

[@gilbertgk]

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

[@ZdenkaDarula]

All follow mode and enable tracking yourself

[@gilbertgk]

@ZdenkaDarula OK so use lock mode with tracking. Will try that with the main camera lens. Thank you

If I want tracking a rc car (crawler) at 60fps 1080p... what is the best choice... I know insta360 do tracking objet but at 30fps... I heard hohem can track face with the original app of your phone. So 120fps ..60fps .. but does tracking objet....?????

[@ZdenkaDarula]

Unfortunately, object tracking is not available outside of Hohem app. The sensor is made strictly for faces. Right now the best bet when it comes to tracking object is honestly Insta 360.

[@rcdb4160]

@@ZdenkaDarula but 30fps with samsung s22... :(

[@tullyriverquail]

The insta360 Flow Is now the insta360 Flow PRO. 2300mah battery (20 hours) and reverse charging plus included selfie stick and animal tracking. Perfect for my google Pixel 1 that has zero battery life, but takes great photos, and for taking video of my Quail & how-to videos... all in my pocket. If I was a serious videographer, I would pick the M6 for the added weight capacity (for lenses and for usbc lav mic dongle). The flow Pro now has a cold shoe mount for hollyland Lark M2 buttom mics, and i can use the usbc dongle on my real phone. Just note, this video diesnt discuss the new Insta360 flow PRO.... much improved battery

Yes, that is correct. New updated insta360 flow pro video is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pX7apYR3qNNmb9Esi=t-OnpGHVim02W3IX
