Creating great video with a smartphone is easy when you have a DJI Osmo Mobile stabilizer. We did a review of the DJI OM3 a while back and now we are happy to announce that DJI just released the newest version: the OM4 Smartphone Stabilizer. The features of this new version of the DJI Osmo were kept a secret until the launch on August 26: but they did send me five to give away as prizes. So learn more about Osmo stabilizers then enter for a chance to win.

How easy is to use an Osmo Mobile smartphone stabilizer?

The Osmo Mobile smartphone stabilizer series are known for their ease of set up and for providing an inexpensive, easy to use way to shoot professional looking videos with just your smartphone. You know the problem we all have with phone videos: they are jittery, lose focus of the subject, etc. Capturing steady always-on-point videos by holding a phone in your hand is not easy. Mount the phone in an Osmo and suddenly a whole world of videography opens up. The gimble and software can keep the subject in the center of the field of view no matter if your hand is shaking or bouncing around. Imagine you are filming a lightning storm from a moving car on a bumpy road; with your smartphone in an Osmo Mobile the image is perfectly stable. It really does all the work; you just hold it in your hand and decide what to shoot.

DJI has created an amazing technology that keeps getting better with each iteration. Erin mentioned in her review of the Osmo Mobile 3 that the new features in that version made it more versatile. What will the Osmo Mobile 4 offer?

  1. The Dynamic Zoom looks pretty neat to add a professional look to the video. I also like the long battery life (15 hours).

  2. Magnetic mount is something new for the category, so like everyone else, I would love to get my hands on that.

    The new app with more modes and improved active track would be nice to test too. So many little things to play with!

  3. I’m looking forward to trying the new active track version and using the quick attach and release with the new magnetic mounting.

  4. The dynamic zoom is certainly one of the most appealing additions to this, I must say that it will add an interesting dynamic when used in junction with the hyperlapse capabilities for some really cool time-lapse effects. Gotta say though, the quick attachment of the magnet system is really the most brilliant addition here. No more accidentally lock button squeezing.

  5. The magnetic mount makes it easier to capture videos. Dynamic zoom gives you the dolly effect!! Nice!!

  6. two great features to try are : Quick Roll lets you transition from landscape to portrait mode in an instant and
    DynamicZoom allows cinema-grade zooms such as the dolly zoom effect

  7. Two features I would like to try are the DJI ActiveTrack 3.0 technology to keep subjects centred and in focus and DynamicZoom to allow cinema-grade zooms.

    • Compared from the previous version –
      pin shot – the game changer
      Quick access, magnetic attachment
      Dynamic zoom

    • The unbeatable compatability with magnetic quick release is a great feature, Secondly the gesture control is sounds like a convenient feature

  8. The magnetic mount is the single standout feature that I feel is a game changer. Being able to quickly snap on and off is amazing. I understand the active tracking is better so I am excited for that as well.

  9. The ActiveTrack 3.0 whould be awasome to use and the DynamicZoom would be cool to use on objects and for Broll.

  10. Would really love to try that activtrak 3.0 as well as the dynamic zoom!! especially need it for the stabilisation. Iv been looking at DJI for a while as I’m getting ready for the North boundary trail in September needing something to stabilize my phone for all the scenic views in Jasper Banff. Definitely want to have good video not shaky

  11. The ActiveTrack 3.0 sounds useful and DynamicZoom is something what my creative side would love to play with.

  12. I need more magic for magic-ing purposes.

    ActiveTrack 3.0, magic
    Gesture Controls, obviously magic

    I must acquire the mystical Osmo Mobile 4 of DJI to become a real warlock

  13. I’m an avid user of osmo mobile 3 and been following the release articles of OM4 and what features it entails. I’d really like to try the Dynamic zoom ( cause I’m really bad when trying to achieve the dolly zoom effect manually ) and Pano Clone effect ( personally my favorite as I think AI does all the work here making it easy for us to just point and shoot – interesting feature to use during these bored quarantine periods if you ask me )

  14. Looks good. The 3 wasn’t as competing but with ActiveTrack 3.0 and DynamicZoom I’m looking forwards to trying those features.

  15. I have always wanted a mobile gimbal and I would like to try out the quick roll and dynamic zoom feature!

  16. the 2 features I like are Quick Roll lets you transition from landscape to portrait mode in an instant
    DynamicZoom allows cinema-grade zooms such as the dolly zoom effect

  17. Dji osmo is my all time favorite gimbal. An item in my wishlist for long long time! The two features I would like to try on my osmo 4 will be the brand new magnetic quick release and the dynamic zoom effect for making some cinematic video effects.

  18. The quick roll feature would be awesome for my IG followers. And the ActiveTrack 3.0 feature is perfect for my kids who can’t sit still!

  19. This looks like a great little device! I would like to try:

    DynamicZoom (I am not exactly sure how that works but would love to try)
    Gesture control (could be more convenient way to take pictures

    • Two features I would definitely use alot are..

      1) DJI ActiveTrack 3.0 technology helps keep specific subjects centred and in focus while they’re in motion

      2)Quick Roll lets you transition from landscape to portrait mode in an instant
