You can now presale the Zhiyun Smooth 4 Gimbal For Smartphones. This is the latest new smartphone gimbal from Zhiyun. These will be in short supply when first released. If you do a presale now you should have yours shipped out the first day available.
Some of the new Zhiyun Smooth 4 features:
1- Hot Keys Design for Instant Controls (Accessed without touching the phone screen): Smooth 4 features unique hot-key commanded operations reducing inconvenience of constant needs for touching the screen, and that is how you can control all parameters of phone camera , including resolution ratio, exposure compensation and iSO, via Smooth 4. With this feature, you can shoot your own Hollywood movies by a phone.
2- Smooth Zooming and Precise Focusing: By rotating its unique follow focus handwheel, you can smoothly zoom in/out the footage and create more diverse images. After pressing the follow focus button, the handwheel will turn into a follow focus controller, where you can control the focus manually, creating more possibility for your shooting.
3- PhoneGo Mode for Instant Scene Transition: By simply triggering the button on the back, you can enter your Smooth 4 into full-speed following -“PhoneGo”mode. In this mode, Smooth 4 can follow every single of your movement synchronously. Scene transition is just in a flash.
4- Object Tracking: Smooth 4 can realize both presetted Timelapse and customized Motionlapse and Hyperlapse. With freer angle settings along all three axes while allowing AF and WT adjustment at the same time, it invites new possibilities to making impactful timelapse. You can frame the object you want to track on the screen, and the stabilizer can do the rest.
5- Two-way Charging with Longer Runtime: Smooth 4 can run for 12 hours in a row. The battery indicator can tell you how much power is still left. The stabilizer can charge your phone directly during shooting. You can shoot video all day long with no need to worry about the battery.

I preordered mine today. I hope they ship them out early. I heard from someone on twitter that they will be hard to get at first but should be back in stock two months later. I didn’t want to have to wait for one so i went ahead and ordered one.
I ordered a Smooth 4 to replace my EVO SP-PRO Gen2 Gimbal that has a burnt up motor. I just hope it is strong enough to keep my iPhone X steady without bobbing up and down. The new design look cool and I like the idea of programmable function buttons.
