Our editorial take on the Insta360 Flow 2 Pro Smartphone Gimbal Stabilizer (White)
The Insta360 Flow 2 Pro is not just another update in the smartphone gimbal space; it represents a significant leap forward in intelligent filmmaking. By combining robust a three-axis stabilizer with an incredibly sophisticated AI tracking engine, it transforms your smartphone into a competent, automated camera operator. The headline feature, especially for Apple users, is the industry-first integration of DockKit. This allows for seamless, one-tap connection and leverages native iOS technology for tracking that rivals dedicated camera systems, making it a standout performer for presentations and vlogging.
Beyond its intelligent core, the Flow 2 Pro's all-in-one design is a clear win for convenience. The built-in selfie stick and a newly reinforced tripod add genuine utility, turning the device into a complete, hands-free shooting solution. The core stabilization excels in situations where a phone's internal systems falter, particularly in low light and when using zoom. While the original Flow had its share of initial problems, this second-generation device appears far more polished. It effectively raises the bar for what a smartphone stabilizer can and should be, delivering on its promise of powerful, portable, and intelligent stabilization.
- Sophisticated Deep Track AI for reliable single and multi-person subject tracking
- First gimbal with Apple DockKit integration for seamless iPhone tracking
- Excellent stabilization performance, especially in low light and while zoomed
- Convenient all-in-one design with a built-in selfie stick and tripod
- Reinforced and more stable tripod legs compared to the previous generation
- Key tracking features like DockKit are exclusive to the iPhone ecosystem
- May be overly complex or expensive for very casual users

Insta360 has announced a major product update: the new Insta360 Flow 2 Pro, which features support designed exclusively for the iPhone; it is the industry’s first gimbal to integrate with Apple DockKit.
It should help in situations where the electronic stabilization of a smartphone often fails at filming in low-light environments or when zooming in. Flow’s handheld design and the stabilization features also mean that you aren’t limited to setting up the device in a stationary position to track a subject.
Insta360 has announced its new Insta360 Flow 2 Pro smartphone stabilizer. This next-generation AI-powered gimbal is claimed to combine groundbreaking technology with an all-in-one design.
The Insta360 Flow Pro smartphone gimbal stabilizer attempts a few novel concepts, including rapid 1-tap pairing with Apple DockKit, enhanced tracking that builds off native iOS technology, and Deep Track 3.0 AI subject tracking. If you want to support the bold new upstart in the game, the Flow Pro could be the one to buy.
Unfortunately, in my testing, I found the Insta360 Flow so burdened by flaws that it’s impossible to recommend. While the AI tracking works well — almost at the level of today’s mirrorless cameras — the form and function are so poorly executed that the Insta360 Flow is often more burdensome than helpful.
The new Insta360 Flow 2 Pro introduces the company’s upgraded Deep Track 4.0 AI tracking technology that can now track multiple people while also providing more flexibility in how tracked subjects are framed. The company says it has also strengthened the gimbal’s retractable tripod legs, improving its use as a hands-free autonomous camera operator.
Insta360 has launched the Flow Pro smartphone gimbal with a feature we've never seen on any rival product: Apple DockKit support. That allows it to track you around automatically while you present, perform or do other activities, much like DJI's popular Osmo Pocket 3 gimbal.
