Our editorial take on the Zhiyun Smooth 5S AI Pro 3-Axis Smartphone Gimbal
The Zhiyun-Tech Smooth 5S AI Pro is a 3-axis smartphone gimbal that integrates AI tracking and a magnetic fill light, aiming to provide a comprehensive stabilization and shooting solution. Its design supports phones up to 3.6 inches wide and includes gesture control for the AI tracking feature. With a built-in 2600 mAh battery, it offers a runtime ranging from 2.3 to 26 hours, and it uses Bluetooth 5.1 for wireless connectivity.
Weighing 22.0 oz with the battery, this gimbal operates within a temperature range of 14 to 113°F. It features a single handgrip design and offers three axes of rotation: 349 degrees for pitch and roll, and full 360-degree pan. Charging the battery takes approximately two hours via its USB-C input.
The stated load capacity of 5.3 to 10.6 oz suggests compatibility with a range of modern smartphones, though users should verify their specific phone's weight. The inclusion of an AI tracking unit and magnetic fill light differentiates it from more basic gimbals, suggesting an appeal for users focused on enhanced content creation.
