Honor's Robot Phone launches in China with a fold-out gimbal camera
↗
Honor's Robot Phone, launching in China, is an Android smartphone with a main camera on a compact gimbal arm that unfolds from the rear.
The Robot Phone attempts to combine a smartphone with a gimbal camera, potentially replacing the need for a separate stabilizer for video and selfies. It adds bulk and weight, but the gimbal offers smooth panning and tracking that could appeal to mobile videographers.
