I love this for what it is. It's an extremely compact, $30 selfie stick/one axis gimble/tripod. It even has an AI sensor! WTH! *AI is much smoother than typical app tracking in some uses). I also have a $160 and $400 gimble for use with a camera, running, and/or special lenses on my phone. This Hohem iSteady Q is more convenient and an extremely good value. I use it for selfie videos, tripod videos, group photos, Zoom meeting tripod, and so much more. The phone clamp even has a center slot that allows it to double as a cold shoe for a light for Zoom meetings. I'm not careful with it. It lives in my pocket or purse wherever I go. Love this!
This was amazing. Had the gimbal for two months and gave it a spin and the apps videos and tutorials were no where as good as what you did. Value content what more could you want? Thanks for making this and teaching me all the things it can do!!!!
I came to youtube looking for reviews on gimbals and your review of this one was the best and most informative! Thank you for making this video! It helped me make my purchase!
Before ordering be sure to check to insure that your phone is listed as compatible. I have an older Samsung S9 and only a couple of features worked with the S9. As a result I had to return the Q that I purchased. Bummer, I was really looking forward to using it.
I'm glad Rodrick enjoyed this product and hope you do too if you choose to get one. I really wanted to like this product, but it was not meant to be. It wasn't calibrated out of the box and resisted becoming recalibrated, so all photos were 10 degrees off as I constantly fought the device to be at the correct angle. It takes way too long to power the device on, install your phone, launch the software, and have it all handshake together before extending the stick to take a shot. Double and triple clicking simply did not function at all, no matter how much I adjusted the speed between clicks, which stripped away all utility. Want to switch between photo and video? You're out of luck, since that takes a double click and double clicks simply do not work. What's the point in all the bells and whistles if it can only be used to snap a photo or switch video recording on and off. Maybe the facial recognition worked well. I wouldn't know, since the device loses a charge one hour after being unplugged from the wall. Do yourself a favor and just light your money on fire and throw it out the window while driving down the highway.
I have a Samsung S20. All of the features worked right out of the box for me. I keep it in my purse and am not careful with it. Maybe your unit was defective or a tutorial is needed? I have no connection with Hohem. I just love this product.
I have a question... I've just got this Isteady Q for the past few days.. most of the moment features are able to use. But except for the "panorama" and "clone me". Any idea or tutorial on doing it? I've try with the desktop mode but still unable to use it. While using the selfie/gimbal mode for sure it's unable. But with the desktop mode still I can't manage to do it. Any ideas on how to use this 2 feature? 😅
This was actually a great video, very clear and informative.. This video definitely should have way more views.. Thank you Rodrick.. You are the best !
Not sure if something is wrong with mine or user error, but my phone doesnt stay straight. It has a natural tilt to the left when attempting to use the gimbal function.
I'd double check that your phone is as balanced as it can be when clamped to the device. Mine is top heavy so I have to adjust it a bit beyond centre point 🤞
It's a one axis gimbal. It helps with stabilization if you are twisting the handle. Tjonk of it as a selfie stick/tripod on steroids. If you're bouncing around or shaking excessively, you'll need a 3 axis gimbal, which will be more expensive, even if bought used.
I use it on my Samsung S20. Seems to fully function. My phone is larger with the case, so I have to clock the arm once into the 45 deg angle to use inception mode, but that's it.
So I mounted my new s23 ultra in that follow mode. And it actually cracked my screen guard. Object tracking does not work. Face tracking does work. Also the double and triple clicks work , only ever so randomly. This is a pretty low quality product. Yes a $40 selfie stick is still too high. And as a 2 axis gimbal this is absolutely horrendous. If you wanna damage your phone, go ahead and insert it in that cheap plastic clamp.

Damn I almost bought this. It's still shaky af even with the gimbal lol
the gimbal that doesn't do its job to stabilize but instead give you a bunch of other features you didn't ask
Then which gimbal should i buy on a budget.

Very cool, but I expected the stick to be longer on exapanded.

Thanks for sharing your review, this was entertaining, detailed with clear audio. I will share with my students for reference.
How long does the battery last?
I got one and I love it. Thanks for this
I can’t wait to get mine in the mail!
I have a question. If you have a iPhone 14 you have the capability of Live Photos is it possible to take Live Photos on the app of the Hohem app?
Very informative and a bunch of fun!!😂 Thanks!

Where can i find tracking in Hohem
And no mention of battery life ,
Thanks for the awesome review! 👍🏽
how long time taking to full charge battery?
Great video. It was very helpful
Does it have an option to be mounted on the higher tripod ? I would love to video tape soccer game 11/11
Not unless you use a clamp of some sort. No 1/4-20 at the bottom. It sits atop a telescoping selfie stick with an attached folding tripod stand.
I just got this and it's great..
Can you use the stock camera app?
And it works on Android too?
I use it on my Samsung S20. Seems to fully function. My phone is larger with the case, so I have to clock the arm once into the 45 deg angle to use inception mode, but that's it.
Extremely helpful video
Please say wher press on take photo and wher press start tecord video

Thank you🙏👏🏻✨
Doesnot support iphone 14

You might need to turn on the remote or pair the remote the first time you use the remote.
