Review: A Good Product - This item has many features, which is why I purchased one. The stability is the best I have found for a gimbal. However, when it comes to software, there is a trade-off when using it with an Android phone. None of the apps (free or paid) utilize all the features. It is up to you which to use, depending on the features available for that particular app. In most instances, I have found that I often use the Android phone camera app, which gives good results. As I mentioned, stabilization is key for me. I can manipulate the video in post-production when videoing using the highest settings.
Review: A Gimbal for Enthusiasts - I've wanted to upgrade my existing phone gimbal which is a Zhiyun Smooth Q3. I liked my old gimbal but the 5S is a lot sturdier and beefier. I feel like the extra weight made a huge difference. It might be bothersome for others because of the added weight but I guess personal preference. The added wheel to zoom in and out is also a plus, it's easier to access unlike the old one. The built in fill light is also helpful PLUS you can add more on top and bottom using the external fill lights that can be purchased separately. I would definitely recommend this to anyone that is looking to buy a phone gimbal. It might not be as professional as the others but definitely does the job!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it hold the galaxy s23 with uag case thickness 0.50 inches ?**
A: The Galaxy S23 weighs in at 168 grams.  I have the iPhone 13 Pro Max and it weighs in at 240 grams.  It works great with my iPhone.  So, being that the S23 is almost 100 grams lighter it should work fine.

**Q: Can I attach a wireless microphone?**
A: Provided you have the cable from the transmitter device

**Q: Can you switch to the go mode using the mode button on the gimbal or do i have to use the app?**
A: Mode button should cycle the various modes

**Q: Is this supposed to come with the secondary magnetic light?  I didn't get one.**
A: No, just one IIRC

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome gimbal but the apps are terrible for Android. Read the details below
*by P***T on February 20, 2023*

What I like about the Smooth 5S vs DJI or Moza, and why I chose to keep the Zhiyun Smooth 5S. For me it was all about handling the payload. I had ZERO issues with this gimbal being able to balance and secure an S22 Ultra with an additional heavy case with the two weighing around 425 grams and this gimbal never flinched. The DJI OM6 flopped like a fish out of water. Using this with my phone's native camera app is just fine. The controls on the Smooth 5S are designed well and fit my hand nicely. Unlike the DJI that can't handle an upward ascent or descent move from the ground without angling the entire camera, this Smooth 5S is very good, doesn't move or add an angle of 30 degrees or so to the upward movements and vice versa. For me and the DJI that was huge NO. With the Smooth 5S it handled all the standard gimbal movements, physical motion without a problem. No jitters, no crazy auto deadband faults. Just nice clean footage every time. The gimbal is lightweight too, but those motors are far more powerful than competitor products we tested against. The added light is actually very good for our RE Reel Videos and demos of properties. Agents on camera look great, and the light isn't as distracting as an externally mounted light as we have on larger camera gimbals. Other than the app not that great for Android users, the gimbal is made very well, very ergonomically designed, and I am fine using the camera's native app for now, but would LOVE for the mfg to at least give us an option of using the bluetooth control of gimbal and mobile device. That part is not usable unless you record at the app's limited frame rates which we never do... Who records at 30 fps in 1080? lol What I don't like...The APP is garbage! DJI OSMO Mimo app is GARBAGE too if you have an Android device. It amazes me after several of these gimbal product iterations that these mfg's cannot get these apps to work right! Newer phones with greater capabilities and I can't even record in 1080 60fps? 4K 60 fps? It's been like this for several years and we are forced to use the native app. Or return the gimbal! Your option is go iOS or use the Android native camera app. These all say they support late model phones like S22, S22+ Pixel 6, various LG, Sony phones... NOPE they do not. The apps will not record on any of those phones using video specs 1080 60 fps or 4K 60 fps ... Absurdity for sure
