hohem iSteady M7 Gimbal Stabiliser for Smartphone w/AI Tracker, Removable Controller, 500g Payload Gimbal Stabiliser for iPhone Android, 1.4 Inch Touchscreen & Built-in Extension Rod

I have been using this gimbal stabilizer with my iPhone 12 PRO, and it has made a big difference in the quality of my videos. I enjoy making online videos for my travel and gadgets reviews, and this tool helps me create smoother and more professional-looking footage. The iSteady M7 is very easy to set up and the Hohem Joy app walks me through all the steps I needed to do. The video instructions were clear, and I could start using it right away. I like how the controls are simple and intuitive, especially with the removable controller. This makes it convenient to adjust settings without touching my phone screen or the gimbal. The only confusing bit is that there is no instruction on how to view the camera overlay on the remote, I managed to worked it out and it is by swiping the remote control touch screen all the way to the right (once the gimbal is connected to the phone via Bluetooth) One of my favourite features is the stand alone AI tracker camera sitting on top of the gimbal. It keeps the subject in frame even when there is rapid movements, which is perfect for capturing action shots or filming people dancing. I have also used it to film myself while walking, and it keeps me centered and steady in the frame. The gimbal feels sturdy and well-built, and I trust it to hold my phone securely. The built-in extension rod is another great addition. It allows me to film myself handheld without having to use the wide angle lens which distort my face. There is also a side 1/4" mounting point for a secondary light to illuminate my face when I am filming at night. The touchscreen makes it easy to change settings on the go. I find the interface straightforward, all the functions have picture as well as in words of the name and I appreciate having quick access to all the features. Battery life is also reliable, lasting through my long video sessions without needing frequent charging. Overall, this gimbal stabilizer has been an excellent tool for my video-making needs. It has allowed me to capture smoother and more dynamic shots. A fantastic Christmas present to myself !

All the 5star reviews are correct. I’m all new to gimbals and think I’ve timed my entry into stabilised short form video content creation nicely. Tested out for first time and not being one who reads the manual I found balancing my phone then setting up the app a breeze. This is a well conceived product

This thing is soooo much fun. AI tracking is amazing, motors are quite strong, so many functions and the detachable controller is next level useful if you shoot on your own. It’s robust but reasonably lightweight. There’s a learning curve if you never had a gimbal before but it’s worth it. Vertical balancing does get tricky if you use lens extensions with your phone but it handles the stated 500g without failure.

11 months on, used maybe 3 or 4 times. Motor started to over heat forcing a rumble that transfered both visually and audible. Customer service is bad. Always the manager will contact you on next shift. It looks great and has so many positive reviews the question is will this last? I don't think so. I didn't even have any heavy attachments. Just the phone 15 pro max. It's sold as upto 500g. I can't see that ever happening. It also didn't keep charge very well. I'd charge it. Pack it up. Get it out a few days later. Battery dead. It's a shame really but it's now been returned and to this day I'm still waiting on a reply from hohem customer services.

I've had the Hohem M6 gimbal for a while, but when I saw the new model was released, I felt like it was time for an upgrade. It holds my Samsung S25 Ultra with the case perfectly—no issues at all. The AI tracking is solid; I haven’t had a chance to take it outside yet, but from my indoor tests, it’s been flawless. The best part? The detachable display. It feels like the end of those frustrating moments when I had to reshoot low follow videos just because the framing was slightly off. Now, I can frame my shot properly and keep an eye on it while filming.

The iSteady M7 is simply the best in it's class considering how much it offers. Though, a bit expensive, it has everything you will ever need to take take your smartphone videography to the next level. The detachable screen is such a great innovative and makes it much easier to film yourself from any distance away. Bar the big size, it is aesthetically pleasing to the eyes with the red contrasts on a background of black. I've only had it for a few months and I can confidently recommend it 👌🏾 if price isn't an issue.

This stabilizer truly shines with its exceptional stability, ensuring smooth and professional shots every time. What sets it apart is the intuitive remote control, which clearly displays the stabilizer’s balance status, allowing quick adjustments without any hassle. The best part? You can operate everything directly from the remote without needing a phone app, making the entire process seamless and incredibly user-friendly. It also offers features typically found in professional camera stabilizers, such as panoramic shooting, A-to-B point tracking, and time-lapse photography, making it a versatile tool for creators of all levels.

I thought I’d buy one of these gimbals after seeing one demonstrated on YouTube. It appeared to work well, but after trying three previous gimbals and them all being useless tat my hopes were not especially high. Could this be the one to save the day? NO! Absolutely not! It flat out refused to point the way I wanted it to and it frequently “tied itself up in knots” beeping profusely. Everything was set appropriately; no locks left on, but it was a disaster. I will never buy a gimbal ever again!
