More affordable than original; DJI GO app is powerful; Great battery life; Refined controls

DJI has been making handheld gimbals for ages: the Osmo range is quite broad these days. The 'Mobile' version has no camera as the idea is that you use your phone's camera instead. And unlike the expensive original , the Osmo Mobile 2 is much more affordable.

everything is good for me! i think the plastic material is a good choice, because that made OM2 much lighter than others, i could hold for long time~~ also the shooting is so stability for my IPX, diepel my doubts.

The device wouldn't calibrate, would randomly 'drop' my phone and not attempt to stabilize, and would seem to wobble all over while trying to take a video.

AI-powered tracking; New portrait mode

Orientation change is manual; No mid-record flipping
