The Hohem iSteady M7 is the one I’m calling the ultimate phone gimbal mainly because of that detachable remote screen—being able to control record/stop and tracking from a distance is massive for self-shooting. Add the AI tracking, gesture controls, extension pole, and the little RGB fill light, and it’s just packed with genuinely useful filmmaking features.
Pros
+Detachable touchscreen remote with joystick and record/stop control
+Strong tracking with AI module that keeps recognising the intended subject
+Gesture controls for hands-free tracking and reframing
+Built-in telescopic extension pole for higher/low creative angles
+RGB fill light works well as a catch light
+Substantial locking system for packing flat and secure
Cons
-Record button on the remote can feel a bit fiddly
-Portrait/landscape change should be done carefully (ideally with the gimbal switched off and phone removed)
