The ActiveTrack feature on the DJI Osmo Mobile 6 seems to work really well and people have generally good things to say about it. Here's a bit more on why this feature is making waves with this gimbal stabilizer.

From what we've found, ActiveTrack is geared up to keep your subject in the frame smoothly, even when they're on the move. Folks often mention it works perfectly with modern smartphones like the iPhone 12 and iPhone 15 Pro Max, even if they're in pretty rugged cases like the Otter Box Defender XT.

The Osmo Mobile 6 has an upgraded motor to make ActiveTrack work even better. As the manufacturer describes, it's built to work with phones weighing between 170 and 290 grams and widths from 67 to 84 mm, covering a variety of models from brands like Apple, Samsung, and Huawei.

But it wouldn't hurt to double-check that your phone fits these size and weight specs for the best experience.

That said, some folks using bigger, heavier phones like the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra or S24 Ultra have noticed a few quirks.

Though the ActiveTrack still does its job, balancing the phone might be a bit of a hassle, and sometimes it can lead to unexpected button presses. However, with a little bit of adjustment, most people find it works out fine.

All things considered, ActiveTrack is a pretty handy feature on the Osmo Mobile 6, making it easier to capture those action-packed shots.

Just make sure your phone is within the suggested size and weight limits, especially if you're using a bigger or bulkier model with a case. It might be worth trying it out in-store with your phone to see how it handles.

For most phones out there, this gimbal's a solid choice for getting some great footage.
