What reviewers say
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
Hohem iSteady M7
Only one whitelisted tester, TechRadar, published a genuine week-long hands-on review (tested with an iPhone 13). It rates the M7 the heavy-duty smartphone gimbal to beat, praising its 500g / 12.5mm payload capacity, app-agnostic AI tracking and a detachable 1.4-inch touchscreen that doubles as a ~10m remote, while flagging a slightly janky companion app, an at-times fiddly touchscreen, and its bulky, non-pocketable, fairly pricey (~$299) nature. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Powerful motors stabilize heavy/large phones up to 500g and 12.5mm thick; App-agnostic AI subject tracking works with any camera app, not just Hohem's; Detachable 1.4-inch touchscreen doubles as a remote (worked to ~10m).
Flagged: Hohem Joy companion app feels janky with poorly translated text; Touchscreen module can be fiddly to use at times; Bulky, non-pocketable and fairly expensive (~$299).
