iSteady M7 Gimbal Stabilizer for iPhone,3-Axis Gimbal w/AI Tracking

It's rare I use the term amazing about any product but I truly think the M7 deserves the title. Out of the box I was pleasantly suprised by the inclusion of a very nice carry case. Everything fits well and it keeps the M7 protected as you travel. I love when companies include a case that feels quality. The M7 itself feels premium and sturdy for daily use and I like that it extends out for wider shots without the need to add an additional accessory. You should download the Home Joy app, as it delivers extra functionality that using your standard camera app will not. After all you will want to get all the features of this wonder of technology. Set up was straight forward and was near plug and play after the app was installed. Simply place your camera in the M7 and balance your phone. I didn't need to balance my phone but you may need to. You'll be ready to go. The two things I find amazing are the AI tracker and the remote. The AI tracker can be used or removed. It can be used with simple hand gestures to frame and track a subject. Not just a person, but any moving subject. How awesome is that? It has worked flawlessly for me. The remote is where I really thought the M7 stood out. Being a solo creator it can be a real pain to have to run back and forth to your camera to adjust angles and framing let alone stop and start recording. Now you can do it all from the included remote. Even cooler is that the remote lives in the handle of the M7 so you're not searching in your pockets or bags for it. Simply detach when you're ready to use and mount back when done. It will charge and be ready for use when you need it again. The remote has a monitoring function as well. You can actually see what your phone sees as well as pick what subject you would like the AI tracker to follow. in conclusion the Hohem Steady M7 is a great gimbal that provides smooth video and all the functionality you would expect from a gimbal, but then goes above and beyond to provide solo creators a wonderfully useful tool to keep you creating and not distracted with adjusting your gear. The technology that's packed into the M7 is amazing. Who's it for: Everyone from the person making home video to the solo content creator...but especially for the solo content creator who will find tremendous value and quality in the M7. Should you buy: Most definitely! Amazing product. Great build quality. Does what it says it will. Lot's of possibilities for use. Most important of all I never thought " I wish it did..." while using it. Buy and enjoy.

To be clear, I am a tech junkie, in the best possible way. I read, and watch reviews of EBikes & Scooters, and own several. I am a semi-Pro photographer, Avid Drone Enthusiast, Tool-head from Welding to Micro-soldering. I have an oversized shed, 2 dedicated closets, backpacks and luggage designed for tool transport. I am "that guy" I had Hohem's M6 last :year, with the small remote available and was incredibly impressed with the extensive feature list. As a result, my expectations were high for M7, and it still exceeded those! The remote controls design and abilities impresses everyone that experiences it. I must have watched a dozen or more YouTube reviews, and not one was negative. Quite the opposite, in fact. Here are some stand-out features and abilities: Every function you can perform on the gimbal is available on the remote. Mainly because the gimbal controls ARE the remote. They attach magnetically to the gimbal, including the joystick for motion control, and a 1.4 inch Touchscreen Monitor! I even found how to align the AI modules image with the phone camera. This is a pro level function. Nothing about the hardware says "rushed" or cheap. Hohem took the people tracking of M6, and added object tracking, an outstanding upgrade! HOHEM also added separate locks on each motor, to stabilize it in you bag when not in use. You can unlock one at a time to make balancing a breeze. I will guarantee if you put the time to try things, the M7 will reward you with dependable, professional results, and will be every bit the solid tool for creative types. Yes it has a lot going on, but it's presented in a logical, intuitive way that makes using it a pleasure. I should know. I have had gimbals that made balancing your phone or camera an exercise in frustration. This is not even in the same class. You get 12 hours of runtime on battery, less if you're charging your phone from it or running the light on high. This has an extendable handle, RGB and FILL LIGHT. Check out YouTube content showing how to get the most from it. It's just a constant source of amazement. Of all the gear we had released this year, this is one of the best if not THE BEST - I would give it an award if I could. I don't write reviews often, and especially don't write glowing ones, but there is something so right with this product, I simply had to let others know! By the way, Hohem is very responsive if you have a question or concern about something. Just reach them through Amazon or their website - Trust me -you will love it!

I am using the M7 Gimbal with my Samsung S23 Ultra. The S23 fits securely in the bracket even with the medium sized case on. I've had other phone mounts that didn't fully hold the S23 with the attached case, but I do not have that issue with the M7. The gimbal works well in vertical and horizontal orientation. Balancing the gimbal was very easy as it only requires one axis adjustment to make. It took me a little while to realize that the tracking sensor can be mounted in a different orientation depending on your use case. Pairing the gimbal to my phone via bluetooth was quick and easy. I was surprised by how well the detachable screen operations and the lack of lag when viewing the screen. The controls work well using the detachable module which includes the joystick and the ability to remotely operate the camera. Another feature that I liked was the ability to manually focus my phone camera via bluetooth using the side wheel on the gimbal. The gimbal feels sturdy and of high quality. There are features on this gimbal I wish I had on the MT2 gimbal which I also have. The gimbal works well in various gimbal modes. Its responsive and the motor appears to be stronger than needed to manage the weight of my S23 and Urban Armor Gear case. Charging the gimbal with the screen attached also charges to detachable control module. Overall, I would say this gimbal is better than I expected and the detachable screen/control module and subject tracking features make it worth strongly considering if someone needs a phone gimbal.

Der Gimbal ist super verarbeitet, liegt richtig gut in der Hand und wirkt nicht wie so ein billiges Plastikteil, das man nach zwei Wochen in die Ecke stellt. Die Stabilisierung ist 1A – selbst wenn ich laufe oder leichte Bewegungen mache, bleibt das Bild top. Besonders cool finde ich die automatische Gesichtserkennung und Tracking-Funktion, damit wirkt’s fast so, als hätte man eine zweite Person hinter der Kamera stehen. Auch die App ist überraschend übersichtlich. Pluspunkte: • Top Bauweise, fühlt sich hochwertig an • Akku hält locker auch längere Drehs durch • Viele kreative Aufnahmemodi • Funktioniert sowohl mit Smartphone als auch mit Kamera Einziger kleiner Minuspunkt: Beim ersten Einrichten muss man sich kurz reindenken – aber sobald’s läuft, läuft’s. 👉 Fazit: Für alle, die Bock auf smoothe Videos ohne Ruckeln haben, ist das Ding echt ein No-Brainer. Preis-Leistung passt absolut!

Es un excelente estabilizador, me sorprendió el seguimiento con inteligencia artificial, pero mi caracteristica favorita es el control remoto, puedes controlar por completo el estbilizador de manera remota. Si buscas un estabilizador para celular ésta es la opción más profesional, puede con cualquier celular y se le pueden poner más accesorios como luces, micrófonos, etc. Además que el vendedor protege muy bien el paquete, llegó un día antes de lo esperado Sin duda volveria a comprarlo en caso de necesitarlo.

I’ve been using the Hohem M7 for a few days, and I’m blown away by how much it’s elevated the way of content creation. This gimbal can basically be compared with more professional mirrorless gimbals as it shares many similar settings and features, especially when it comes to how the gimbal maneuvers. A focus ring, axis locking modes, RGB fill light and other features make the gimbal feel like a professional piece of gear. It may be a bit different from other beginner-friendly smartphone gimbals, but it certainly does provide a lot more headroom in terms of its capabilities. The AI tracking is easily one of the best features here, it's not just for tracking faces but I’ve used it to follow pets, and cars and even keep a building perfectly centred while moving. The fact that it works with my phone’s native camera app and also allows space for other app possibilities makes it seamless to integrate into my workflow. The detachable touchscreen remote is such a handy addition. It’s super easy to use and select your tracking subject and the gimbal locks on instantly. It’s also useful for shooting solo since everything can be adjusted from the remote without me running back and forth. The RGB lighting is also a fun addition, allowing your subject to be well-lit and also some room for more creativity during the shoot. The built-in extension pole also opens up even more possibilities for unique shooting angles. Overall, the gimbal feels like it was made for creators who want something easy to use but still packed with professional-level features. The motors are strong and easily handles my S23 with added filter accessories. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, this gimbal delivers exceptional value to fulfill a variety of needs.

This with out a doubt is the best gimbal I have used to date and coupled with the quality of video my iPhone produces it just makes life easier when creating content, quality made and feels like it has been made to last everything screams premium, bigger than what I thought but feature packed. One of the stand out features is the detachable screen/controller which allows you to control the camera and gimbal from a distance and even better is the AI tracking on this device hands down has to be the best I have come across, if you create content solo then this is a game changer it really is, either using hand gesture to activate the follow mode or by tapping on the touch screen of the remote control allows you to make videos with ease, having a gimbal with so many features and amazing AI tracking is a must if your a solo content creator, well worth the money.

Sebbene gli smartphone di oggi vantino caratteristiche fotografiche sempre più avanzate, per creare contenuti di alta qualità è indispensabile l'uso di alcuni accessori, tra cui gli stabilizzatori o gimbal. Dopo averne provati molti, posso affermare con certezza che Hohem rappresenta il marchio di riferimento per gli stabilizzatori per smartphone. Ho dedicato qualche minuto per descrivere l'incredibile livello raggiunto da questo nuovo prodotto, che già dalla confezione e dalla valigetta per il trasporto dimostra di essere un oggetto serio, di qualità e curato nei minimi dettagli. Ecco le specifiche tecniche che sfido a trovare in altri gimbal: - Capacità di carico: Abbiamo raggiunto i 500 grammi, un carico che potrebbe sembrare eccessivo pensando al solo smartphone. In realtà, ciò si traduce in: a. Se utilizzi solo lo smartphone, il gimbal consente qualsiasi movimento senza perdere un colpo in termini di calibrazione e precisione nei movimenti. b. Per i professionisti, è possibile montare accessori come SSD, filtri sulla fotocamera, microfono esterno, senza compromettere le prestazioni. - Estensione telescopica: Quasi 20 cm di lunghezza, significando: a. Miglioramento delle riprese in modalità selfie: niente più braccio allungato e una posizione in camera molto naturale. b. Riduzione dello sforzo per riprese molto alte o molto basse. c. Semplificazione di riprese d'effetto, come quelle dal basso verso l'alto o di inseguimento. - Anteprima delle riprese: È risaputo che la migliore qualità negli smartphone sia quella della fotocamera posteriore. Tuttavia, utilizzarla sempre presenta un grande limite. Quando siamo davanti alla camera, è impossibile assicurarci che l'inquadratura sia corretta, obbligandoci a "sperare" di aver indovinato. Inoltre, spostandoci troppo potremmo uscire dal campo visivo, compromettendo la registrazione. È qui che il Hohem M7 si rivela una vera rivoluzione. Il piccolo display OLED e i comandi sottostanti non sono fissati allo stabilizzatore, ma fanno parte di un telecomando rimovibile dal corpo del gimbal. Avevo già provato uno stabilizzatore con un telecomando rimovibile, ma ora vi è anche un display per visualizzare un'anteprima di ciò che stiamo inquadrando. Questo consente di utilizzare la fotocamera posteriore mantenendo sempre sotto controllo l'inquadratura, in qualsiasi momento, senza passare per l'app Hohem. È necessario, però, avere il modulo AI agganciato, che integra anche una luce LED ancora più potente, fissata al gimbal tramite un meccanismo di sicurezza. La luce non è solo bianca, ma anche RGB, per effetti a colori. - Modulo AI: In coppia con il piccolo telecomando, sostituisce completamente un cameraman. Le gesture ci permettono di avviare la registrazione. Con il telecomando possiamo controllare manualmente i movimenti, oppure abilitare il tracciamento automatico selezionando l'elemento da seguire (doppio tap sul piccolo display dove è presente l'oggetto da seguire), non preoccupandoci più di nulla. Incredibile! - Libertà di movimento sui 3 assi: Con questo gimbal possiamo fare praticamente qualsiasi cosa su ogni asse. Non trascurate affatto questo aspetto, può fare la differenza tra un gimbal davvero utile e un oggetto che crea problemi invece di risolverli. Certo, il compromesso è accettare le sue dimensioni generose, ma Hohem ha pensato anche a questo. Se si lascia a casa la bellissima valigetta, si può utilizzare il meccanismo di blocco dei tre assi in 3 punti, riducendo al minimo l'ingombro per inserirlo facilmente in uno zaino. Mi sono concentrato sugli aspetti davvero importanti per me in un gimbal, ma potrei continuare dicendo che ha una durata della batteria di 17 ore, più che sufficienti per un utilizzo intenso di un paio di giorni. In poche ore si ricarica ed è di nuovo pronto all'uso. Aggiungo che ogni elemento meccanico può essere configurato secondo le esigenze dell'utente, sia tramite il display sul gimbal che tramite le impostazioni (ancora più dettagliate) presenti nell'app Hohem Joy, app tra l'altro davvero ben fatta. Concludo dicendo che, se siete a corto di fantasia, potrete sfruttare i numerosi effetti automatici dell'M7, come timelapse in movimento da un punto A a un punto B, oppure attivare la funzione che farà ruotare il telefono, creando una ripresa "vorticosa" semplicemente pazzesca. Ma quello che ci tengo a dire è che questo gimbal fa tutto dannatamente bene. Grazie a questo display sarà ancora più facile farlo. Sono davvero estremamente soddisfatto di averlo acquistato e spero di aver trasmesso le mie reali sensazioni utilizzando questo concentrato di tecnologia.
