Official AIbird Uoplay Portable Protective Pu Leather Carrying Case Bag for 3 Axis Gimbal Stabilizer,Lightweight and Sturdy -Jet Black

I bought the black Uoplay to use with my iPhone 7 plus and GoPro 5. I had a tough time getting it to work properly with my iPhone 7+. I installed the counterweight and took the case off my phone and it finally stabilized. I suppose when you have a larger phone, it takes a larger toll on the motor when you've got the case on.I wanted to use the gimbal to capture my nephew's first steps. It's tough to film at a kid's eye level, but with a gimbal, I'd have a better chance of a perfect shot at a low level. With 310 degree's of pitch rotation advertised, I was sold... however, it would not rotate a full 310 degrees. The bottom of the grip arm that holds my phone kept hitting and getting stuck on the back 'roll' motor. It was really annoying. I thought maybe the arm was installed the wrong way... nope. was worse when flipped. Other than that, It was pretty smooth video recording. I am curious if anyone has had a similar experience with the pitch using the silver uoplay with an iPhone 7+ or 6+.Please leave a comment if you have or have not, as I'm more interested in learning that the silver Uoplay will work with a plus sized phone than having to try it and learn it does not. It's hard to tell when reviews won't list which product they're reviewing when multiple items are sold under the same listing. You can't always tell if a review is talking about the black uoplay or silver one.Unfortunatly I returned the black uoplay before I could figure out how to use it with my GoPro. The grip is too wide any which way you attempt to install the bare GoPro 5, so I'm not sure how only the included rubber band would work with it without the grips locking on it. I hadn't thought of trying it with the housing on, so that might be the solution. I can't say for sure as I've not tried it.One thing to note is that the app does not always save your video footage. I've lost a few videos from saving properly on my phone through the app. It would say it's recording but once it's done, it wouldn't drop the video onto my phone. Yes the app had permission to save to my phone. If the thing you are shooting is a precious moment, then skip the app and use your phone's video recorder directly instead. That said, the uoplay app does have some brillant features such as face follow and motion timelapse. The videos I lost were 2 motion timelapse.Another thing to note, when you first turn the gimbal on, you'll see a pulsing blue light. The pulsing blue light only means it knows you meant to turn it on (standby), not that it is in gimbal mode. To activate 1 of 3 Gimbal modes is a (deceivingly) red, green, or solid blue light. A pulsing light means something other than gimbal mode. See more info on the indicator lights and its meaning in the List 1 below.Star Rating: 4/5I dropped 1 star off a 5 star review for the fact that it would not fully work as advertised for a plus sized iphone. Apart from my particular phone size being an issue, I don't see this being a problem with all other sizes. It worked brilliantly with my friends iphone 5s. I'd have kept it if I had a smaller phone sitting around (it's that good).LIST 1 - Black Uoplay Gimbal modes and indicator status  -----------------------  Standby Mode ------------------ Pulsing Blue lightSemi/Half-Following Mode --- Solid Red light (stays on)Fully-Following Mode ---------- Solid Green light (stays on)Locked Mode -------------------- Solid Blue light (stays on)Low Power ----------------------- Red light flashes then shuts downIn Charging ---------------------- Pulsing Red light (only displays when the gimbal is turned off)Charging Completed ---------- Pulsing Green light (only displays when the gimbal is turned off)**** If this review helped, or if you're just bored and enjoy clicking things - could I trouble you for a "Yes" or a "Helpful" vote below? Many thanks mate! 👍👍

This product might be for the first Uoplay because the cutout does not fit with Uoplay 2. I see its usefulness to protect the product so be warned.

Love this gimbal! I have used it with my iPhone 7+ and will use it with the 8+ too. Great quality product!

This case hold my gimbal perfectly.

pretty nice. it has a little compartment for the charger and batteries, I like that.

Wonderful product, but mine doesn't work. It may be related to the open and torn box and not being a brand new unit, but I cannot be 100% sure. In any case, if it did work, I'm sure it would be a great experience!

Awesome!!!

sehr schlechter Gimbal. War in der Benutzung richtig schlecht und nicht intuitiv, ging sofort zurück.
