About the payload problem and not being able to use heavy accessories, you’re using it wrong. You should use a counter weight to help the Osmo 6 balance everything out. You’ll find some counter weights to buy and use it with the provided “hole” the Osmo 6 has in its body to screw counter weights in it.
i've just ordered my osmo mobile 6 because my zhiyun smooth q gimbal battery is now failing sadly. it was a tough choice between the se and the 6 but if felt the 6 had some features that i could use.
Thank you so much! I just bought this today, haven't used it yet, but very excited to use it. None of the cons were anything I need to use, and can't wait to use it tomorrow 🎉 oh, and you just got a new subscriber 🚀💯
@smartphonefilmmakingpro It's great to have finally found you! I have a new real estate client and it's very important to me that my 1st shoot with them in 2 weeks goes well. Until then, I'll watch a video of yours every day, and will continue to finish your catalogue after. I was nervous at first to be using my smart phone and the Osmo 6 (plus drone, plus Matterport Pro camera), but you have given me a new sense of confidence in the knowledge you have provided, that I cannot thank you for enough. Keep up the great work! People like me need people like you. Thank you again 🙏
Why does no one mention the fact that the DJI OM3, 4, 5 and 6 all have a jitter and you can only use them with phones with really good electronic or optical video stabilization. This is not a stable phone gimbal and no one is saying anything. I just sold mine because my A52 has awesome video quality but no IS in 4k. RUclips reviewers just lost my trust.

Eu tinha uns 4.4gb de memória livre, estava filmando mais de 10 minutos em 4k e acabou a memória, e o aplicativo em vez de salvar meu vídeo, simplesmente apagou tudo que tinha gravado, isso é um absurdo, inaceitável, qualquer câmera de celular salva o vídeo quando enche a memória. e outra diminuí o brilho da tela pra economizar bateria, e o aplicativo dji mimo, ficou normal, com o brilho quase no máximo, esses 2 pontos negativos ninguém fala, só quando as pessoas usam que se decepcionam, quando já é tarde demais, testar o om6 e deixar de falar isso pras pessoas é sacanagem.
I bought a zhiyun smooth 5s after hoping the on om5 was good but It just can’t handle certain shots and I always found it to shake. For practicality and size the OM series are good but I feel they lack motor strength.
@@ayyooKenny 100% love it if you want a decent phone gimbal for your phone you don’t mind a little few mins setting up and then shooting, does full 360’s. Osmo mobile 6 for like quick snap and film shots
@@smartphonefilmmakingpro I feel like it wont look striaight on the car. I wish there was a setting to focus forward while you move around. I did buy tracking device. This does takes some skill to use. I wish I knew of a stabilizer that didnt swivel but absorbed foot steps
I just bought late in the game,, using it with samsung s21 ultra, it still has the external hard drive.. and that 100 x zoom, not bad considering the s24 is out now
I have a question. Will the magnet clamp work or fit if I have a bigger phone case like an otterbox? I’m wondering if the case would be too thing for the magnet clamp to grab on. Thanks.
@@StormChaserRob what kind of case do you have? Did it fit without case? And could you use all the posibilities of the gimbal, because I have read that it's not compatible with the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra.
I agree on all the negatives except for the extension, which I like. The only reason I kept mine is for travel as it's compact and light enough to carry easily. For more dedicated work I prefer the Zhiyun Smooth 5S.
I'm so confused: I just weighed my iPhone 13 Pro Max with the silicon Apple case that never leaves my phone and it says 272g, so well under the 300g recommended. Some users say they can use this gimbal with the Pro Max series without a problem. I certainly don't want to use the naked iPhone each time: Apple covers don't last and if you take them off continuously, they'll last even less. What do I do?
A similar deep review from an Android user would be nice. The DJI Mimo software is kinda limited on Android OS, but it looks like everyone uses iPhone...
@@smartphonefilmmakingproI would add it just barely works with the iPhone 15 pro max with the DJI Mic receiver attached as long as the battery is almost full. Otherwise as a basic gimbal I think it’s great. The built in selfie stick is a plus. But there are better gimbals for more complex work.
I agree totally... Been using it for around 5-6 months also. Overall I really love it to bring OM6 on my trip. It's very convenient and works well. One thing about the limited tilt range though....you could use the extension pole and adjust the angle a bit to help with the tilting. For the clamp, I tried using it with Rhino Shield NS before for my Japan trip and it works well. The phone did not drop a single time during my 10 day trip so I think you will be fine with bigger case.
Does the magnetic clasp attach directly to the magsafe back of the iphone 14pro? If it does, I wouldn't have to worrk about the clasp. If it doesn't, then I would have to remove my case for ever OM use..which is no good.
Just bought and used the OM6 for a live stream expecting the est battery life - lasted exactly 2hr and 39 mins with 14pro Max - had I known this beforehand (expected maybe 5hrs coz a lil heavy) I would have made a dash for the bigger cousins - not bad for PNS situations but will be looking into the Smooth and Scorp mini.
Is this small enough to fit in pocket to film at festivals where people bump into you and ruin every handheld shot you take? Also is there smaller stabilizers? just need horizontal mode and good stabilization and I like the extension on this one too to get phone high enough so no one can ruin the shot in front of me.
@@smartphonefilmmakingpro Thanks for reply! Getting it as I have quite a few festivals upcoming this year that I want to have good memories saved from!
I would like to use it with the samsung galaxy s23 ultra + freewell case + freewell filter/lens. Is it possible? And if not, what are your recommendations?
@@sebastiannowakowski5084 more customisation mainly. the clipboard is a big one for me; the awkwardness of going into a particular app's setting in the actual settings and not through the app itself like on android; i also love my call screening on my pixel because i get a lot of dodgy calls almost daily, etc. Lastly, there's the aestethic as well - iphones look cheap and that notch makes me flaccid, dat some 2015 shite. don't get me started on the apple watches - they look like chinese casios from the 90s that you have to charge twice a day.

Hey Julian. My friend uses an iPhone 14 pro max to record videos for his RUclips channel. He tells me that his phone gave him the overheating warning a couple of times while shooting videos outdoors. It gets really hot in the summers here in India as well. Do you come across such issues and if yes what do you do?
nice review bro, I was about to buy this, but your review helped me to realize I shouldn't buy this one. I am not big fan of gimbals though, so any other gimbal you recommend in a lower or equal price than this? - I'd like to keep the case of my iPhone on.
My friend i always use thin cases and goes perfectly with the gimbal,not all cases thick like yours!
That‘s great!
My case fits as well, in fact the 360 rotation ring type gives me the accurate location to clamp the mobile right in the center.
Have you tried counter weights with add ins on iPhone 13 Pro at all??
I did and i am not a big fan of this workflow to be honest
About the payload problem and not being able to use heavy accessories, you’re using it wrong. You should use a counter weight to help the Osmo 6 balance everything out. You’ll find some counter weights to buy and use it with the provided “hole” the Osmo 6 has in its body to screw counter weights in it.
I have tried it with the counter weights, has not been a great workflow for me.. But it's just my opinion
Nice video! Which gimbal would you recommend for a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra with case on? Want to do the vlogging and apartment reviews?
I have s24 ultra and this osmo mobile 6 and it grips great without and with case. Power/lock button is not optimal place, but can live with that.
i've just ordered my osmo mobile 6 because my zhiyun smooth q gimbal battery is now failing sadly. it was a tough choice between the se and the 6 but if felt the 6 had some features that i could use.

can you use cinematic mode from iPhone 14 pro on Osmo mobile 6 ?

I have an iphone 15 pro max, should i disable the enhanced stabilization? And also what about the action mode low light? Should it be off or on?

Does the DJI Osmo Mobile 5 gimbal support 4K@60 fps video recording with the Samsung Galaxy S24?
if you don't use the DJI App sure, no need to use their app
IS extension rod worth it? I am deciding between SE and OM6

The tilt range just made me decide not to get this , glad i watched this video

Without add ons it should work!

If it does, I wouldn't have to worrk about the clasp. If it doesn't, then I would have to remove my case for ever OM use..which is no good.
No it doesn‘t the clamp is just clamped onto the phone, has no magnetic connection to the iPhone
I was about to buy the OM6 for my iPhone 14 pro max, (soon to be 15 pro max) and now I think I’ll just hold off.
checkout Zhiyun or Hohem
Can I use cinematic mood when I record a video and give me a nice quality?
To tilt better operate upside down. It works great.
Just bought and used the OM6 for a live stream expecting the est battery life - lasted exactly 2hr and 39 mins with 14pro Max - had I known this beforehand (expected maybe 5hrs coz a lil heavy) I would have made a dash for the bigger cousins - not bad for PNS situations but will be looking into the Smooth and Scorp mini.
