I found this great deal while browsing eGlobal. for the Zhiyun-Tech Smooth Q Professional 3-Axis Handheld Gimbal Stabilizer for Smartphone - Jet Black.
Best price so far if I'm not mistaken. Its $87 + 20.74 for Insured Economy express shipping.
you can buy locally for $130……
link please tuzii
Plus $12 shipping.
So really, you're saying you can buy it locally for $151 ($44 more than than the OP's price)
$139 + Free pickup, or $11.95 shipping (total over $150) vs $108 delivered.
Are these gimbals likely to have issues that you'd prefer to pay 30% more to get local stock?
$129.20 Delivered Here for AU Stock with PICK5.
Can't see why AU stock is necessary though considering the price difference.
Actually, found it even cheaper @ Allphones eBay for $124.80 Delivered with PARCEL20, think that's actually worth going for AU Stock then at that price.
I was thinking of buying this with my pixel 2 xl + moment lenses.
So tempting :(
Just a heads up, you will need a counter weight for Pixel 2 XL with a moment lens (at least the wide angle) otherwise it is too heavy to balance. Moondog make one but they are not the cheapest.
I'm going to DIY a counterbalance using velcro and metal discs.
Hope its gonna work out!
This should become the new standard price since Zhiyun has lowered the retail price to $99 USD. Probably in response to DJI Osmo Mobile 2
I had mine replaced DOA. Went into the mobiciti shop at Para and got it replaced.
Price $117 delivered.
Yep.
im getting $139
I ordered this 8 days ago and they tell me it could be a month or more and suggested I could cancell the order.
I am prepared to wait but it would have been nice to have for an upcoming trip
youre not alone. i paid for a drone only to be told theres none and a check a week later still have the items on the site with at least 100 in stock.
i dont know what happened but something is fishy
Does the android app still suck?
I wouldn't say it is perfect but still usable.
Got one of these on a previous Gearbest offer for $152 - I suspect these new prices are the result of DJI's new Osmo Mobile 2 pricepoint. It's a very good gimbal that I've used to shoot many travel blogs. The apps are not great however and chew through my iPhone 7+ battery in a very short space of time (about 45 minutes from fully charged in fact). So I just use the default iPhone camera app to record video instead - downside of that is that you can't use the on-gimbal control buttons, but that's not a big deal really. If I was buying a gimbal now and it was for basic recreational video recording I'd still get a Smooth Q, but if I was buying for vlogging or work or if the gimbal was going to see a lot of use, I'd definitely pay the extra and get the Osmo Mobile 2 as it has better battery life and far superior software.
Bought one months ago…..it's somewhere at the back of the wardrobe.
you should really use it mate, it's awesome. video is so much more watchable if it's stabilised, I cant really go back to not having it. Unless of cos it's an off-the-cuff moment recording something…
I just feel that it's terrible to control. It has a mind of its own and I end up just getting pissed-off with it.

I'm a cop you idiot!
Good price, just bought one for $109 with PICK5 on eBay 2 days ago.
Great gimbal, especially for the price. Ditto, Mine got used for a day then stowed. Mainly due to bulk and the funny looks I got when using it. Android app still sucks (why is this the case with most Android apps!)
Got one in December last year. It's a fantastic piece of equipment. I really recommend getting one if you like taking videos because the videos are so much nicer to watch when they are stable. I use an android phone and do not have an iPhone so I cannot make a comparison about the software. I didn't have much trouble with the Zhiyun software itself. Took a few tries to get used to it but I got there in the end. I took a few videos while walking, running, and as a passenger in the car. The videos were smooth as. Took a few panoramas and some timelapses. I charge my phone via a portable battery after each use so I don't experience a shutdown mid-shoot. So, at this price point, go get one :)
Got one in a previous deal and its good. The only annoying thing is that if you have a big phone and have to do the slider adjustment to balance it, the gimbal won't go back in its case unless you return the slider back to its original position.
What makes it professional?

Couldn't care less the funny looks I get from people. I used this when we were at
The Rocks in the cbd. Plenty of people. My videos are that much more enjoyable to watch now.
This or DJI Osmo Mobile 2?
Price gone up tp $91.00 now
I too bought one in December. 8 days door-to-door shipping. A fun gadget to dik around with, and also sometimes take videos with
I bought one yesterday at dcxpert ebay store. They had it for $149 minus 20% (using PRESENT20):$119.20 delivered.
Stock level: last one (as 9.19AM). Hope this helps for someone who doesn't want to pay nearly double for Osmo Mobile 2.
Cheers
Very good price!
