I've had my DJI OM5 for 3 days now. Here are my thoughts on it.

Firstly, this is my first gimbal. I cannot compare it to something like the OM4.

Pros:
Extremely portable - bring it anywhere.
Battery life long enough for me. My phone is usually lower than the gimbal!
Allows for many creative possibilities.
Stabilisation quality is good. Just be careful when walking that you don't bounce up and down.


Cons:
Tilt range is limited - you might need to tilt the grip up to tilt up more.
Can vibrate - check if your magnetic holder is on the center of gravity on your phone. Do this by spinning your phone, if the holder stays in the center, you're good.

I recommend buying this product once you are aware of the pros and cons.

I neglected to mention the weight. With my phone and the gimbal, it weighs about 580 grams. That's almost the weight of a basketball. If you hold it for a long time, it can become painful.

Hello, my OM5 worked fine for a few days, today i filmed for 20 minutes and it worked just fine. Then i zoomed in to 6x and then the gimbal quit working, non of the buttons were responding anymore and it does not turn off anymore. My phone still finds it but wont connect anymore. How do i reset this?

I had a similar problem. I discarded the Mimo app off my phone then downloaded it again from Dji download center. Had to do this twice but at least t is connecting again. (How long for? we'll see)!
