The best camera is the one you have on you, and, as many artists and content producers know, your smartphone is often the only camera you have handy. With a Benro X Series 3XS gimbal stabilizer, you can take your smartphone video to a whole new level. This 3-axis intelligent, motorized gimbal lets you move freely while your phone remains smoothly in place — no jostling, no bumps, no sway, just smooth video. And with several operating modes, iOS and Android support, onboard audio functions, and much more, the foldable 3XS is sure to give your videos the professional edge they need to stand out on social media.

Totally flexible design
One of the things Sweetwater musicians and content providers love about the 3XS is that it folds down to almost nothing. When you realize just how sophisticated this thing is, the fact that it can easily fit in your jacket pocket, purse, bag, or other case is simply amazing.
Simplify your life with powerful shooting modes
There are several impressively simple operations and functions onboard the 3XS that will save you time and headaches, and generally improve your shooting experience with your smartphone. For instance, sometimes you want to shoot in portrait orientation, and sometimes you want to shoot in landscape. No need to take your phone out of the holder and rebalance the whole thing — just hit a button and the orientation will automatically switch. But that's just the beginning.
There are two shooting modes onboard the 3XS that make it incredibly versatile. First, there's the Universal Follow mode. Set this mode and your camera stays locked in the direction it's pointing. This mode is ideal if you're moving around a subject, such as your lead guitarist pulling off an epic solo or the subject of your next interview. If you're planning on moving around more, such as when you need to follow an energetic lead singer traipsing across the stage or film an action sequence for your indie short, Locked-down mode will suit you better. It keeps your camera smooth on the horizontal axis, allowing you to pan and mover around corners.
Unlock advanced features in the app
There's a lot more you can do with the Benro X Series 3XS than merely stabilize your smartphone, and when you dive into the companion app, you can tap into all kinds of advanced features. In addition to calibrating the 3XS, this app lets you adjust parameters and create stunning panoramas and time-lapse effects. You can also set up automatic face and object tracking, allowing you to dive into the action and let your 3XS keep your camera pointed at you. What's more, the app lets you customize the 3XS's buttons, so you can trigger these advance modes without even opening the app.
Jacks and adapters to fit your gear
Do you use an external microphone with your smartphone? How about a camera tripod or other mount? Either way, the Benro X Series 3XS gimbal will accommodate your needs. Built right into the 3XS is a standard 1/8" (3.5mm) TRRS audio jack, which features a passthrough to the holder itself. This lets you plug your mic into the 3XS, and still feed audio right to your smartphone. Another cool feature is the 1/4"-20 threaded hole at the 3XS's base. This lets you mount the 3XS to any standard camera tripod or other compatible mount.
Perfect power for professional performance
Worried about your 3XS running out of juice mid shoot? Don't be. Its 2000mAh battery is rated for up the 24 hours of continuous use on a single charge. That means you can shoot all day and all night and never worry about a thing. But what about your smartphone? If your phone's running low on battery, you can tap right into the 3XS's battery. It comes with a USB-C cable and a Lightning cable that plug into the 3XS. Better yet, the gimbal clamp doubles as a wireless charging port, so you can power your phone as you shoot.
