HAFOKO OM6 Metal Magnetic Phone Holder with Cold Shoe for Microphone (Tripod Mount Compatible with DJI OM 6/OM 5/OM 4)
Product description
Quick overview
If you’re using a DJI handheld gimbal like the OM 6/OM 5/OM 4, this HAFOKO OM6 magnetic phone holder is aimed at making mounting your smartphone faster and more convenient. On paper, the big draw is the strong magnet grip plus a cold shoe on top for adding extras such as a microphone or a small light.
It’s a fairly niche accessory: it’s not a generic clamp for any stand and any phone. It’s designed around that specific gimbal ecosystem, plus the sort of content creator setup where audio matters as much as video.
Key features that matter in real use
The holder uses a metal body (described as aviation aluminium alloy with precision processing) and relies on a magnetic attraction function to keep your phone in place. There’s also an adjustable width range stated as 60mm–89mm, which should cover a wide selection of mainstream smartphone sizes.
A cold shoe at the top is included, which is the kind of detail that usually makes the difference between “nice video” and “actually usable audio” for interviews, vlog clips, and quick talking-head shots. The base also includes a 1/4" hole, so you can mount it to a tripod-style setup where a standard thread is available.
There are a few practical touches mentioned too: scratch-resistant design, built-in silicone gaskets, and dedicated access for an “unstoppable power key” and volume key. In day-to-day filming, that’s the difference between taking your phone off the gimbal every time you want to start/stop recording or adjust volume.
One limitation to keep in mind: most magnetic holders are great for quick attachment, but they still depend on good alignment and the right phone size. If your phone is on the thicker/heavier side, or the case changes how securely it seats, you may find the magnetic hold is less forgiving than a clamp system.
What to know about compatibility and fit
This holder is specifically described as compatible with DJI OSMO 6 / OSMO 5 / OSMO 4 / OSMO 4 SE spring clamping structure (and the product name calls out DJI OM 6/OM 5/OM 4). If you’re not using one of those setups, it may simply not be what you’re after.
It’s also built around the phone width range of 60mm–89mm. Before buying, it’s worth measuring your phone (including the case) against that range, because magnetic holders can look like they fit perfectly and then leave you wishing the width tolerance was a bit wider.
As for mounting options, the bottom 1/4" hole suggests it can work with tripod accessories that use that standard thread. If your tripod uses a different mounting method, you may need an adapter—but that’s not detailed here, so it’s something to check.
Where it shines (and where it may fall short)
This accessory makes the most sense if you want a clean, creator-friendly rig:
- Quick phone attachment via magnetic attraction, rather than fiddling with a clamp each time.
- Cold shoe on top for a microphone or a light, which is especially useful when filming outside or in mixed lighting.
- A more rigid, solid feel thanks to the aluminium alloy construction (useful when you’re setting up and breaking down quickly).
- Silicone gaskets to help protect your phone and improve stability.
However, it may not be the best pick if you’re after something universal. The stated compatibility is tied to that DJI OM/OSMO spring clamping ecosystem, and the design is clearly built for that style of gimbal use. If your goal is a one-size-fits-most mount for multiple devices or unrelated tripods, you might be better off looking at a more general-purpose holder approach.
Practical tips for getting the best results
A common workflow is: attach the holder to your gimbal, then power on the phone, mount it, and start recording. The inclusion of access points for the power key and volume key is handy here—you can control the phone without removing it.
For audio, a practical micro-scenario: set the cold shoe up with a compact microphone, then record a short interview while walking. In setups like this, placement matters. Because the microphone will sit on the shoe, give yourself time to align it so it points where you expect, rather than assuming “it’s on the shoe so it’s automatically aligned”.
Also, because the holder is described with scratch-resistant design and silicone gaskets, you’ll still want to keep the contact surfaces clean. Dust or grit between the phone and gasket can reduce how confidently it seats.

Is it worth it?
It’s worth considering if you already shoot with a DJI OM 6/OM 5/OM 4 setup and you want a magnetic, more convenient phone mounting option—plus the ability to attach a microphone or small light via the cold shoe. If you value quick setup and you often film vlog-style or talking-head content, this aligns well with that kind of use.
You may want to skip it if you don’t use the DJI OM/OSMO spring clamping structure mentioned in the description, or if your phone (especially with a case) doesn’t comfortably sit within the 60mm–89mm width range. It may also be a frustrating buy if your tripod or rig uses a mounting system that doesn’t suit a 1/4" connection and you don’t plan to use an adapter.
Quick check before you commit: confirm the gimbal model compatibility, measure your phone width with your case, and make sure you’re happy with a magnet-based hold for your specific device weight and balance.
