Zhiyun Partners with Huawei to Start a New Chapter in Smartphone Vlogging

Shenzhen, China, January 07 2020 – Zhiyun and Huawei today announced they have partnered to create a better vlogging experience using Zhiyun’s gimbal stabilizers and Huawei smartphones. As part of this partnership, Zhiyun’s smartphone gimbals will be able to directly control native cameras of Huawei smartphones. Thanks to Huawei’s CameraKit, the Zhiyun ZY Play app will deliver more powerful and smoother zooming from Huawei smartphones.

Zhiyun’s, the world’s most popular gimbal brand, is known for camera gimbals such as the Crane series and smartphone gimbals – the Smooth series featuring Smooth 3, Smooth-Q, Smooth 4 and the new compact Smooth-Q2.
