Thanks for this video. It really helped me understand the functionality. Can you please suggest which gimbal can I use? I need to shoot horizontally and need to attach lightning cable on iPhone 8plus which is for capturing audio with wireless microphone. I really need something that will not effect the functionality of the gimbal even if I attached the lighting cable. Thanks 🙏
I have no problems with it , using the included cable which came with my pixel m80 mic. For the problem with the microphone cable you can use a proper cable or 90 degree adapter, actually your cable has a very clunky 3,5 plug.
It works fine with the galaxy s10 plus. For the external mic problem you can use a proper 90 degree cable or a proper adapter. The cable he used with his mic is very clunky. I am using the smooth 4 more than 2 years a lot and I like very much the longevity the battery has. I am using the Gimbal for live streaming with Larix broadcaster.
I am experiencing now that my zhiyun app and phone cant be connected even their BTs are on in the absence of wifi and data. Meanwhile, bluetooth on, wifi on, bluetooth paired, and the zhiyun app is functioning. any thoughts? I just need to be enlighten.
Hmm this is the first time I encountered this problem. Based on my own research as well, this should not happen. Zhiyun app should be functional even without wifi or data. How about trying below possible troubleshooting methods that might help you: -Don’t pair Zhiyun Smooth 4 in the mobile phone Bluetooth list. It should be pair in the ZY Play APP. -Delete all the Bluetooth information, and try to pair again. -Restart or rebooting your Zhiyun Smooth 4 or mobile phone. -Update the firmware version of Zhiyun Smooth 4. -Uninstalling and reinstalling Zhiyun Play App If above methods still does not fix your issue, this might be a compatibility problem with your phone and zhiyun app. Might want to check this out with Zhiyun Customer Representatives
Like my Samsung A70, it can work but has limited options too since it is not fully compatible, unlike the latest phone models. Still, you can use it but not fully maximize the gimbal's capacity.
nice review bro. any suggestions po na android compatible and anong gimbal ung na cliclip on po ung holder? malaking bagay nga ito if just for quickshots lang. thanks
Thank you for watching brother. Right now, I am eyeing Zhiyun's latest phone gimbal, the Smooth Q3. It has greater weight capacity, more compatibility and it can use your native camera app so you won't have to use Zhiyun's App anymore which has limited options.
I wish I saw your video before purchasing my zhiyun smooth 4 😂 I'm using a note 10 plus. It's just not a good gimbal for this phone. But your video did help. I'm gonna get the balancing thing and microphone. Hope it works!
Thanks for this review Boss.. Am a newbie..and am planning to buy my first gimbal, what brand or model you can suggest for me as beginner.. thanks a lot!
Thank you for watching brother. It depends on how you are gonna use it, if your phone has an EIS function, I believe you won't need a gimbal anymore. If not, I suggest this gimbal in my vlog or Zhiyun's latest phone gimbal which is Zhiyun Smooth Q3. It has greater weight capacity, more compatibility and it can use your native camera app so you won't have to use Zhiyun's App anymore which has limited options.
I forgot I bought this and now that I have a bigger phone the Galaxy S20 FE, I don't even know if it work with it. This was one of the stupitest purchases I made. These devices quickly become obsolete and stop being supported. This is why I will never waste my money with these companies, useless gadgets.
It will work but it depends on the weight of your phone case. If it's a little heavy, you might need to use a counterweight as Iphone 11 pro is a bit heavy as it is. If safety is your concern, based on my experience Zhiyun Smooth 4 is safe to use even if your phone does not have a phone case. Its clamp is secure and I have never experience my phone dropping while using this gimbal.
This was such a thorough and honest review!! Thank you so much
can i use at my iphone 13pro max?
All other reviewers who sat in the nice looking studio and reviewed this gimbal failed to mention what you just did. Thank you.

How to shoot vortex mode(360 roll) in smooth 4?
Secondly, is zy cami supports smooth 4?
I have no problems with it , using the included cable which came with my pixel m80 mic. For the problem with the microphone cable you can use a proper cable or 90 degree adapter, actually your cable has a very clunky 3,5 plug.

Bakit po kaya balance naman na sa note 20,pero pag nag take ng video bumibitaw na po,need naba bumili ng counterweight
Is Huawei Y7 phone compatible with smooth 4

Very helpful.
The Zhyhun app is actually not very good, but you can use the filmic pro app with it on most of the newer smartphones out there.
Have you also experienced the 3x3 panorama problem? Found a solution?
nice review bro. any suggestions po na android compatible and anong gimbal ung na cliclip on po ung holder? malaking bagay nga ito if just for quickshots lang. thanks

Nice video brother. Can you advise which gimbal good for beginners and model. I have Samsung A71 and Samsung A52 5G

I'm glad I was able to help. I hope you have mastered this gimbal already and I am looking forward for your success in your future vlogs.
Yes bro you are right. It's to big and rolling is not present.
Exactly brother! thank you for watching my vlog.

Just purchased this and i knew all of the things you mentioned. The Zhiyun 4 is for pros and the techie, not the convenience
Thank you for your insights, Ben.
😱😱😱😱
🔥🔥🔥
Does it work with the iPhone 11pro with a phone case
It will work but it depends on the weight of your phone case. If it's a little heavy, you might need to use a counterweight as Iphone 11 pro is a bit heavy as it is.
If safety is your concern, based on my experience Zhiyun Smooth 4 is safe to use even if your phone does not have a phone case. Its clamp is secure and I have never experience my phone dropping while using this gimbal.
