Hohem iSteady V3 phone stabilizer vs DJI Osmo Mobile & Insta360 Flow Pro

[@FlytPath]

Congrats to @robjus1601 on winning the Hohem iSteady V3 phone gimbal.

[@vazikos]

The black one looks awesome! The color is also helpful because I would use this skiing down a mountain, so the contrast with the snow is crucial in case I drop it...

[@ianjay3794]

The removable remote control and the tripod makes it a winner for me.

[@stelina2457]

The black one is definitely my go to color! I can’t wait to use it during vacation with my husband

[@hoffstadt6]

I like the white one, I will try to attach it to my wheelchair and try and record while pushing my wheelchair

[@makua702]

Love the review! Thank you so much for reviewing the V3. I am looking to get one in white. After looking at your review, I am interested in either the Hohem V3 and the V6. Thank you again for such a great video1

[@AndyWho727]

I never ask for this stuff. My wife is just starting as a content creator and this could help her TREMENDOUSLY. Slate grey would rock but white is good too. Thank you for the consideration. Love your drone videos also.

[@abobbybaby4]

The White one for me. Would use it for houseboat trips on lake with friends and family for this newly retired guy. Thanks!

[@shax13]

Love the look of the black one! I just got back from Kazakhstan and would have loved one of these on the hikes in the mountains I did. Think I'd use this on future hikes!

Amazing video! I had a few questions for you if you dont mind: 1)Related to the max video resolution modes for timelapse, hyperlapse/timeshift, max slow motion and dynamic zoom....according to Hohem's manual it seems like the max video resolution is 1080p60, 4k60, max timelapse resolution is 4k30, max slow motion resolution is 720 8x, and max resolution for dynamic zoom is 1080p30. Is this true? I was trying to compare it to the Insta360 Flow Pro which has dockkit integration. According to the Flow Pro's documentation it seems like the max timelapse resolution is 4k,60fps, max slow motion is 1080p 240fps, and max dolly zoom is 4k,60fps which are all better than Hohem's iSteady v3 except the hyperlapse/timeshift seems like its max is 4k30 same as Hohem. Wondering if you could corroborate that? Or if you dont have the Flow Pro, if atleast the Hohem iSteady v3 in the app shows the settings I mentioned above. 2) Having said all of that, if you had an iPhone 15 pro max, and had to choose between the Hohem iSteady v3 vs this Insta360 flow pro, which would you choose? The iSteady v3 has a unique remote and more tilt degrees, but seems like its video resolution modes max out at 4k30 for timelapse and max slow motion seems much less than the insta360 pro. The Insta 360 pro has dockkit integration, but lesser tilt degrees (not sure exactly how much tilt vs 30 degrees both ways for the iSteady v3). And if the Flow Pro gets Apple Watch integration through dockkit then it seems like it would have similar remote type abilities like this Hohem. Curious to your thoughts!

[@Layren96]

I like the black! Hoping to get it to film my upcoming road trip with my close friends

[@gearjunkie3402]

I like the black one. I travel a lot in mountainous areas with spectacular views. I'm going to look into a few different gimbals.

[@JohnDavis1972]

I would definitely use it for event photography. Would love either color. The removal settings price is pretty neat.

[@EricRoseBahamas]

The Black one would be great. I would continue to capture the culture and natural beauty, as I travel here through the Islands of The Bahamas.

[@yzzy]

I like the black one, would use it when on a trip with family.

[@londenard]

I'd take the white one and use it at the Drone Meet Up in Vegas! W00t!

[@JimBailey]

Thank you FlyPath, super video. The Black looks awesome. Will be using it with a Galaxy s23 ultra. Thanks again.

[@rgdrone7551]

Great video again to compare these models. I like the black one. What about the dedicated application and the different capabilities (vertigo, clone, etc.) ?

[@LivinginJacksonvilleFlorida]

I like the black/gray. I would use it to shoot family travel videos and real estate videos.

[@chefzilla314]

I'd be down with the black/grey. Does this have some type of 4th axis stabilization? It really seemed to with the shot with your daughter.

[@MrJameric]

In the manual for the isteady it says using the app you get about 6 hours of battery

[@Coco-m5t]

1:09 What camera did you use for this shot? Was it sony alpha or iphone?

[@7890shawn]

How does it perform for vertical cinematic frame ? Does it have a problem like other portable gimbals ?

[@QsilverFpv]

I would definitely go with the white one. And i'm gonna get one, because yeah, eventually I will have a professional camera and gimbal, but want the skills before I spend all that money i went crazy with the drones.Already learn my lesson

[@michellemuana]

Would like the black one to shoot travel and nature footage. Also wondering if you would do an AI tracking and pickup comparison with the Hohem Vs Insta360 flow. Wondering if it still picks up the correct person after hiding behind a pillar. Thanks for the review.

[@rickyricky-sj8xj]

So which one you recommend?

[@boblupo]

Love the gray/black. I'd like to use a gimbal where i can't use a drone such as Colorado State Parks

[@jvec9744]

Aldryn, help me understand what I am looking for. Of all these compact gimbals do any stabilize the vertical movement of the camera so that whether you are moving on rough terrain or moving the camera vertically it will remain on the same horizontal plane or be a smoothed ascent or descent? These gimbals seem to smooth the image by keeping the camera pointed in a steady direction, but is there a device or feature that will keep the film plan in the same position, even if the operators level is bumpy or changing? Appreciate your expertise and great videos.

[@vajguy]

3 axis stabilizers fix rotational only.. what you're looking for is a Z axis stabilizer.. you can get those, they look like a crane with a spring.. smoothes out walking up and down motion.

[@BostonClipper]

Obviously a great content creation tool. But I was curious if these handheld devices would be useful with an unintended use. In a small boat, it can be challenging while bouncing up and down to see in the distance (navigation aids for example). There are VERY expensive image stabilization binoculars. Maybe the iSteady could be a market disruptor. I would suggest not only stronger magnets to hold parts on but also a locking ability. Waterproofing is always welcomed. I always prefer white for electronic devices because the enemy of electronics and batteries is heat, black casings always are hotter. The remote control could be cool. Mount the iSteady on the boat rail with the 1/4 20, and control with an iPad.

[@YTPAJ12]

Nice review, now we need more testing with the inbuilt software to see what it can bring. The hardware seems sturdy, except the magnets. I don't see why they don't just fix the AI attachable device to the gimbal permanently rather than having it magnetic. Anyway, nice review bro. Keep it up.

[@savedguy]

Thanks for teaching me all the info you have as I've started my drone and media business! Black and real estate as well as church promotional videos.

[@joelmacqueen9387]

🎉 Thanks for this comparison information about the gimbals. The Black one would be fantastic. As I would plan to shot Landscapes, go with my dog to the beach and capture Family and friends moments at regular Sunday Lunchtime moments.

[@dmai73]

Was winner already announced yet and I missed it?

[@suwethaakeerna4857]

Nice videos very helpful and thank you! I would prefer the black one it is more nice I would like to use it when I am traveling

[@AjaySingh-228]

It looks Impressive...I shoot nature and vlogs...both are pretty good but I go with black Sir

[@superipodmanvik]

Black! Great Replacement for my old Dji Osmo mobile 3. For more hiking Adventures with my son

[@dmai73]

The black will match my phone best. I'd give this a try and practice my social media phone video content for my work at tradeshows.

[@gbeeshrimp]

White for me, and loads of aquarium stuff I'd be filming

[@jadny79]

I would go with black for sure and would be perfect for filming my children!

[@bwest6275]

I just received my Hohem today and agree, the remote magnet and AI tracking module clips should be stronger. I'm a bit paranoid they will come undone unexpectedly. But aside from that, I picked the Hohem as an impulse buy due to their coupon that drops it down to $104 USD. Hard to beat I think for the feature set at that price.

[@AonBB]

How do you like it? I saw it on sale for $96 at Walmart recently.

[@tronziebit]

Hello! I would love to have the backbone to do nature cinematic video shooting and car meet car shooting as well. Thank you for the review.

[@microrails]

Either color would be enough! As I don’t have one. My iPhone 13 pro could needs a Gimbal. Thank You.

[@jonahkaiguam]

I love shooting on my Dji pocket 3...but it lacks zoom so I would love a new smartphone gimbal to shoot my travels and family moments with my S23 Ultra. I'm really liking that V3 dark grey...not a fan of bright colors as they will get dirty

[@davidrentz6915]

i wud go with white gimbal bc I cud easily find it in my bag. I'd use the gimbal filming my upcoming December cruise and future travels.

[@BurgerPlanetLive]

I disagree about Hohem adding the auto power function. I find it really annoying on the OM6 because the phone is not on the gimbal yet and the motors start twitching and freaking out.

[@droneKRR]

Спасибо за рассказ и удачи! Я ранее использовал DJI Osmo Mobile, но он сгорел во время зарядки. Сейчас у меня Insta360 Flow - свои задачи он решает, хотя и не столь классный, как DJI. Чем раздражает и огорчает Insta360 flow - он требует включить все виды связи - w-fi, gps, блютуз и мобильный интернет. Без этого он работать не хочет. А также было пара случаев в поле, когда он потребовал обновления. Это был ультиматум , на который я тогда не смог ответить - в поле у меня просто не было интернета.

[@robjus1601]

White would be my choice. Hiking with my family.

[@ramonvargas8018]

The black gimbal is sleek and more low key. I'd would film family and local attractions to b visit.

[@jt.itsmyjam]

I am interested. If I get lucky. I would go with the white one. I will be traveling to Osaka, Japan next month. I am celebrating my birthday over there. I will be video shoot a lot of the places that I will be going over there, castles, shrines, inside Universal Studios Japan, including the nuclear dome in Hiroshima, the Gundam statue in Fukuoka, and the new Nintendo museum in Kyoto that will be opening in October 2 this year.

[@JeromeH-b1u]

I'd like to have a Gimble to stabilize my phone's camera and make my videos look more professional

[@rulowth4815]

The black, totally, i film for a cultural proyect about indigenous art, we planning to keep do in it, i alway forget how much a stabilizer could be helpfull

[@chimobiisicheli5233]

I need one

[@suleimanalmahmoudi9333]

so can u give me a one plz

[@alelu69ya]

Hi! How to shoot the effect of flight, as in the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYSck59nrayWe6Msi=g_YVSYRXfIwdcJRM on timecode 13.20 - 13.30 Which mode to choose! Thanks!

[@leandrole7525]

[@bazlur-Vancouver]

Like the black one and want to make a video of the city and countryside
