Nice deep dive into tracking abilities. I enjoyed using two phones with a few gimbals I've had previously, providing monitoring and even motion control, to frame, which was useful, but other than the small size of whats truly a "remote control / monitor" Hohem had a brilliant idea here. Building tracking independent of the phones camera is incorporated in a bunch of cheap Amazon tripods so they probably have no patent or limited ownership of the concept design, in wvhich case we are entering a creative renaissance!
Thank you for the detailed review! And thank you for making it known that this thing works with GoPros! I looked all over the website and scrolled all the reviews and found nothing on whether this was compatible with GoPro or not! I ordered it anyways, but that is a huge plus. I wish I had found your channel sooner
Glad it was helpful. To be clear it is not specifically designed for GoPro but it can hold a GoPro. it doesn’t connect to it wirelessly for the remote control to work But it is just as easy to press the record button on the GoPro.
Thank you! You’re the only reviewer who show and partially test what’s really new and unique to the M7 - Namely the Object tracking, and not People tracking!å.. ..So I ordered one, sold my M6 that couldn’t track ie even a slow moving rc car. Really looking forward to receiving mine. I need an assistant, not a paparazzi for my face😄
cool. definitely big improvements. object tracking, 360 degree rotation as well as allowing the arm to be flip to the back. this will be my next replacement mobile gimbal. 🤗🤗
Good video! Just an fyi though your audio sounds a touch echoey compared to others but I don't think its your mic itself. Not sure if its a post thing or possibly more dampening in the room (wall pads etc, fabric on unseen walls etc. I just wanted to mention as it is the ONLY thing I noticed coming from another high production value videos. Excellent information and details given though, 1st place on that in my books from what I have seen. Most feel like marketing as they are but, you are coming across much more genuine and much less a marketing shill like most other channels 🤣.
It is not advertised for that but yes it can Cary an action camera and I use it for action cameras. It doesn’t connect wirelessly to the action camera for the controls but I really don’t even do that with my phone either but I know some people do.
Just got it and there's a lot to learn, i mainly bought it cause i wanted to use it for screen shots on myself using the controller but noticed that if i zoom in the controller doesn't zoom in as the phone would so i would have to see on my phone and see how much im zooming in.
When the motor arm is in view of the camera and you switch to wide view can the phone go into Selfie mode to record yourself instead of relying on remote screen
You can record with your phone however you want using the native camera app. The gimbal works independently from your phone. I was showing using the back camera on my phone because I like to do that because the back camera is better then the selfie cam.
I have used this gambler with the GoPro and Insta360 Ace pro. However, This is not specifically designed to be used with action cameras, so it won't wirelessly connect to them for the controls, but it can handle the weight and if you're OK with just clamping it into the phone mount it does work and if you're worried about it falling out of the phone mount you could always just throw a rubber band around it.
I would say no. I've recently got the M7 and walking around my coffee table focused on a Bluetooth speaker, it breaks tracking lock quite often even at just a walking pace circling the table. It's OK but far from perfect. It works better at tracking you whilst talking and moving around. Not so much rc cars which is what I wanted it for as well. 1/5 scale so they're pretty big but I'm doubtful.
Considero que el uso en modo vertical puede restringir los movimientos. Tenía la intención de adquirirlo, pero me surgen algunas inquietudes. En todos los videos que he visualizado, no se muestra claramente la libertad de movimientos ni las limitaciones del dispositivo. Cuando todo parece tan positivo, es prudente tener reservas, especialmente en lo que respecta a Hohem. No tengo certeza sobre si todavía están disponibles su aplicación, si han resuelto el problema de las vibraciones en los motores de sus modelos anteriores y si la respuesta de la inteligencia artificial es completamente confiable; la versión anterior presentaba deficiencias significativas.
Have been troubleshooting a NEW m7 right out of the box since Saturday as I explained to Hohem this was a gift for my wife and it’s defective. It jerks in tilt mode, then flips the camera facing down and gets stuck, all 3 switches are unlocked, tried recalibrating. This was the suggestion by hohem tech. After him having me send several videos for over an hour he then requires me to do a zoom meeting with another tech for an hour. The first tech also said for me to “Please try rotating it up and down for a week to restore it to its initial state.” What a joke! Any suggestions how to get this thing to work properly?

Excellent product. Worth the money. Good job showcasing it Luke.
Thanks!

I’m selling my M6 which I just got!
I own Hohem M6 and really happy with it. I'm using it as a filming gear for my work.
Marvelous, object tracking is a home run, a much-needed feature, plus others! Take my money; thanks for sharing!
cool. definitely big improvements. object tracking, 360 degree rotation as well as allowing the arm to be flip to the back. this will be my next replacement mobile gimbal. 🤗🤗
Did you test the feiyu scorp mini 2? It's similar and good till 1.2kg of payload 😮

Nice new gimbal. Can you show case the actual payload limit on a video and what accessories you can attach
Wow... Thank you for the review.
I just love the way you take time to review product and beside really detailed about it. keep on creating new stuffs. #stevekutour channel
Great review! Is this also able to accommodate a Gopro 5? I recall another vid that you demonstrated one example. Thanks
Great video! Can this be used on action cams?
It is not advertised for that but yes it can Cary an action camera and I use it for action cameras. It doesn’t connect wirelessly to the action camera for the controls but I really don’t even do that with my phone either but I know some people do.
Great job! Keep it up! 😊
on my bucket list

Can this gimbal be used with action camera like dji osmo action 5 pro, i wish to buy one which can be used either with phone or action camera
I have used this gambler with the GoPro and Insta360 Ace pro. However, This is not specifically designed to be used with action cameras, so it won't wirelessly connect to them for the controls, but it can handle the weight and if you're OK with just clamping it into the phone mount it does work and if you're worried about it falling out of the phone mount you could always just throw a rubber band around it.
Can you make automatic 360 panoramic with this how with DJI ?
Yes
Would the ai tracking be able to track fast moving objects eg. Rollercoasters
It would really depend on how close you are. It probably would but probably not very dependably.
I would say no.
I've recently got the M7 and walking around my coffee table focused on a Bluetooth speaker, it breaks tracking lock quite often even at just a walking pace circling the table.
It's OK but far from perfect.
It works better at tracking you whilst talking and moving around.
Not so much rc cars which is what I wanted it for as well. 1/5 scale so they're pretty big but I'm doubtful.
Does the tracking pick back up automatically if lost then you move within range or view?
it would be nice if it can support holding a iphone with a magsafe ssd on it.
If the tracking is blocked by an object or tree and then it appears again, does the tracking still work?

O bummer! I would send it back. It is definitely a lemon
Yea....send it back to them. It's clearly failed.
Dangit... I bought the M6 about 6 mos ago 🤦♂️
This is an amazing gimbal! Great review!
Thanks!
