Hi Everyone! I know that Nothing Phone 1 is not in the official DJI Osmo Mobile compatibility list. I'm thinking of buying an OM to use with my Nothing.
Anyone using this Smartphone with Osmo Mobile right now? Any issues?
Thank you!

EDIT 10-01-2023: I decided to buy anyway an Osmo Mobile SE from Amazon. If it doesn't work well i can always send it back. I'll post my experience here just in case everyone needs info about the Nothing Phone 1 - Osmo Mobile compatibility.

EDIT 25-01-2023: My Review after 2 Weeks
Hi everyone! After two weeks using a Osmo Mobile SE with my Nothing Phone 1 here are my impressions.
I took the OM SE with me last weekend on a Mountain Snow Hike and i tried to do some night shots and timelapses.
- Compatibility
I didn't notice any major compatibility issues.
The OM SE works perfectly with my Nothing (Android 12) and the MIMO app connects very fast to the Bluetooth (5.0 required).
There are anyway two limitations:
1) You Can't switch to the Panoramic Camera from inside MIMO App, and you have to use the native camera app for Panoramic Shots. Not a big issue, because you can create panoramic shots with the panoramic Gimbal mode.
2) You can only shot in 1080 p or 4k, only at 30 fps.
Asides of this "minor" issues, i have to say that i'm Happy with my Nothing Phone 1 - Osmo Mobile SE configuration. I encountered some limits on photos during night time, but they are related to the Sensor of the camera (it's a Midrange Camera!).The stabilization appeared perfect in all conditions.
Even during a dawn timelapse at -8C° the gimbals continued to work without issues but unfortunately the Phone died on freezing temperatures!
EDIT: 23-02-2023: After Android 13 Upgrade, now you can switch between Nothing Phone 1 Main and Wide-Angle camera from MIMO App!   

I attach to this post some shots that i made durin my last Hike.
Hope you can find this short review useful!

Hi, alfiosky. Thank you for reaching out. The  Nothing Phone 1 has not been tested by our engineers yet as of this posting. When used with DJI Mimo, unknown issues may occur. Nonetheless, as your mobile phone’s dimensions and weight might meet the gimbal’s hardware requirements, you can connect your mobile phone to the gimbal's Bluetooth, and then use the mobile phone camera, or a third-party camera app for gimbal stabilization when recording. Thank you for your understanding. Hopefully, other Osmo Mobile users can share their experience with the Nothing Phone 1.

Just take care the DJI mimo app is not in google play, and they force you to sideload the app, making your phone more insecure

Thank you Gamora! I'm testing right now my Osmo Mobile SE with my Nothing Phone 1 and everything seems fine. I'll post a review next week after taking it with me on a Mountain Hike next weekend.
I registered my Osmo to my account, but i can't see the Osmo under my devices of my Forum Account. I see only my Mini 3 Pro. How can i address this issue?
Thank you.
