Some gimbals we recommend
There are many. These are just some:
DJI OSMO Mobile 3 ($100) or 4 ($149)
DJI OM 4 ($150)
Zhiyun Smooth 4 ($100)
Zhiyun Smooth XS
Zhiyun Smooth Q2
Hohem iSteady X
Moza Mini MX
MOZA Mini-S
MOZA Mini P
Feiyutech Vimble 2S
Aochuan Smart XR
Freefly Movi Cinema Robot
Some of the latest, most high-end smartphones (such as some Galaxy phones) have excellent inbuilt image stabilisation, so if you really don't want to get a gimbal right away, these may suffice without - but be sure to test this thoroughly and be aware that you may get poor ratings, earn fewer tips and achieve less bookings if your tours lack smooth camera movement - it's one of the most common problems hosts face.
Smartphones we recommend
Almost any high end modern smartphone should be great. If you're on a budget or have a slightly older phone, just be sure it has at least a 700 series Snapdragon processor, with at least 4GB of RAM (2GB on iPhone should suffice).
5G network support is ideal (if your region supports it) but not necessary; 4G is fine, so long as you have good signal and a fast, stable network. The link again for the network test you need to score at least 4/5 on with 'CALLS' - http://speedtestgroup.com
Headset microphones we recommend
Ideally use true wireless in-ear earphones with decent mic like these:
Jabra 75t true wireless earbuds
