Review: FLUID - PURCHASE DATE: 30MAY22 PRICE PAID: $169 PRICE + TAX: $182.52 REVIEW DATE: 10JUN22 Recently, I purchased an IPhone 13 Pro and wanted a gimbal that would not be super expensive and I ran into this one. I have a Spigen slim case on my IPhone and it fits perfectly snug in the gimbal clamp. The grip is grippy and nice to hold which allows easy button manipulation. The bottom having the stand attachment is nice but also has a slot for a wrist holder if needed. Now that I have used it and will be keeping it, I will be ordering the magnet dimmable light attachment. I saw it offered online and after some videos it makes sense to have it. Once you figure out the controls and features it is smooth and steady. I am very pleased with it and the way it smoothly transitions while you move. IPhone portrait mode and this device is awesome. Two thumbs up! I will edit this review with updated photos/videos later. PLEASE NOTE: I do these reviews to help people out. This review is my honest opinion after doing much research and purchasing this product for personal use. Prior to purchasing any product I conduct thorough research, test the item, and photograph it prior to posting a review. THANK YOU!
