If you’re tired of shaky phone videos and want your Instagram Reels or travel vlogs to look like you actually know what you’re doing, the Hohem iSteady V3 Ultra smartphone gimbal is about as close as you’ll get to a secret weapon—without selling your soul for a cinema rig.
According to TechRadar, the iSteady V3 Ultra is the best small smartphone stabilizer for subject tracking they’ve ever tested.
It folds up smaller than a paperback, weighs just 15.1 ounces, and still manages to handle phones up to 400g or 12.5mm thick.
If you want to shoot hands-free, there’s a built-in 8-inch extension rod and a tripod. No more propping your phone up on a stack of books and praying it doesn’t topple mid-shot.
The real magic is the AI tracking module
As Fstoppers reports, it comes with a detachable magnetic AI module that locks on to your face or subject—no app required. Just set it down, step into frame, and the gimbal keeps you perfectly centered.
If you’re filming yourself, you’ll actually stay in focus for once. And the included remote works from up to 32.8 feet away, making solo shoots a breeze, as detailed by Amazon.
The iSteady V3 Ultra also features a built-in 3-color fill light, so you don’t have to worry about looking like you filmed in a cave
According to Hohem, the gimbal’s battery can last up to 13 hours on a charge, or around 4 hours with AI tracking and fill light both running.
You’re not the only one eyeing this thing—The Gadgeteer notes it’s comfortable to hold and keeps footage smooth, even if you’re running, walking, or just living dangerously with your framing.
SLR Lounge points out the composite build and sleek design, available in Shadow Black or Arctic White, make it look as good as it works.
Here’s the kicker: the iSteady V3 Ultra usually goes for $169, but right now, you can grab it for just $149.99 using promo code LM12% at this exclusive link via the company’s online store. This code will not work on Amazon.
