Hi,
My first experience with DJI was frustrating. I am not familiar with Gimbals but I purchased one DJI OM 4 on my friend's recommendation. This is my experience: I unboxed it, turned it on, mounted with my phone, calibrated it and it went unresponsive right after calibration. I tried different things from youtube and dji manual to see if I am making a mistake as a new user but nothing. Then I contacted DJI support center and I appreciate that representative was super nice but I could not get to solve my problem after spending 1-2 hours sending multiple screenshots.

Worst product experience.

Hi Thor,
Thanks for replying. Let me share my experience with DJI services. I must appreciate that team provides an active response. But, unfortunately, after multiple communications, my problem still exists. I was asked to send the video, I did, and they said they can't view it. They sent me a link to upload the video, I did, and they replied "May we know if you have tried using another phone such as Android to check if the issue persists?". First of all, I don't have a second phone to test. Secondly, does it mean that DJI gimbals are not compatible with all phones?  

Finally, I would not like to mention, but, I am suffering since the day I opened the box (it was not working properly right out of the new box). Honestly speaking after this gimbal experience, I deleted my order for the DJI drone after putting it in the purchasing cart.

I think I would like to return/replace the product as it is still under warranty. It's not fair that a customer purchases an item from a top-notch brand and can't use it.

PROBLEM NOT SOLVED?

I think I have already contacted support@dji.com. Just stuck with communications, writing emails, sending videos, reading emails and that's all. I think I would just keep the under warrenty device in my drawer now forever, as a memory that I purchased a gimbal from DJI and could not use even once.

Summary:
DJI purchase-->unboxed--> disappointed--> contacted support (appreciate the service but)--> spent hours in explaining my problem--> no solution--> sending emails to DJI--> writing on DJI forum---> reading their response--> NO SOLUTION.

Thank you.
