Our Review

DJI OM 5 Smartphone Gimbal, Athens Gray — a low-key tool for polished remote-work video

The gist: A neutral, professional-looking gimbal that makes it easy to shoot steadier LinkedIn clips, course intros, or client-facing video without a full production setup.

Compact enough for a desk drawer: At 290g — about 100g lighter than the OM 4 — it doesn't take up much space in a work bag.
Extendable built-in arm: Functions as a selfie stick or mini boom for solo talking-head shots without buying a separate mount.
Automatic shot guidance: ShotGuides recommends shot sequences and editing templates, useful for professionals without a video-editing background.
About 6 hours of runtime: Rated battery life covers a solid afternoon of content batching, recharging in roughly 90 minutes.

Android Authority's review called it “one of the best smartphone gimbals to ever hit the market,” while cautioning that “you don't need to spend $159 to get a great smartphone gimbal these days.”

Best for: remote professionals who film regular video content on an iPhone and want it to look intentional. Skip it if: you're on Android — frame rates cap at 30fps and some features are iPhone-exclusive. Runs ~$159 — check the current price before buying.
