Xiaomi Mijia launches affordable smartphone gimbal

Xiaomi’s Mijia sub-brand has previously launched a gimbal for action cameras, but now it has unveiled one that is suitable for phones. It can fit handsets up to 86 mm wide and 200 g in weight and can supply up to 5V/1.5A power to them from its 5,000 mAh battery. Without charging a phone, it can last 16 hours.

The gimbal provides 3-axis stabilization and with the auto tracking in the dedicated app it can follow you the full 360°. Or you could do time-lapse photography.

There’s a standard 1/4-inch screw at the bottom, so you can screw the gimbal on a tripod or other mounts. On its own it weighs 476 g.

This new Mijia gimbal will be available in China from June 16 at a price of CNY 600 (equivalent to $94/€80).
