JOBY - GripTight ONE GorillaPod Magnetic Mounting Kit for Select Cell Phones - Black/red

Picked this up for my wife the photographer to use as she's bee looking for a way to hook to the tripod and have something portable. This one did both. It has threads that match standard tripods, so we used it to record the kids opening gifts on Xmas and to get a family photo using the bluetooth remote. The fold-able tripod is also great. We parked it in several locations to get different views and if the magnetic feet didn't get hold, it was easy to wrap the legs around and get things placed the way we wanted them. It also worked on small portable cameras, but as you would expect, it didn't have the strength to hold even a small SLR except on a flat surface. It's not a super-deluxe motorized unit that walks, but if fits the bill for most average users like me. Even my pro photog wife loves it.

I had initially picked up 2 separate products to fill my needs when I rounded the corner to find this item. This came in at significantly less than the separate mount and holder I had in my hand. A quick glance at the stars only review online made it seem worth the gamble. This turned out to be a good choice/ This item easily holds the Galaxy S8 Plus in all kinds of positions with no fear it is going to drop. Obviously you have to know your physics and it has it's' limitations but with a little ingenuity this thing can get into all kinds of crazy positions to get the best, and very unique, shots.

I purchased this tripod because it could be attached to anything and was EXTREMELY disappointed! The arms continued to break apart any time I attempted to mount it and gluing them defeats the initial purpose of its flexibility. I've owned mine for 3 months now and the issue started in 2 weeks! I do not see how this item has such high reviews. You are better off trying to make a standard tripod work and getting a cellphone attachment. Save your money, don't believe the hype

Very versatile. The magnetic feet are handy; more so than I thought they would be. My only complaints are the legs could be slightly longer. Also, where the head attaches to the tripod feels a little flimsy. It feels like it might easily break if you're not careful adjusting the phone's position. Thirdly, I think the unit is a tad overpriced for what it is.

This magnetic tripod is awesome! JOBY has incorporated a great design with quality craftsmanship and premium materials. This is an excellent solution for on the go filming as well as setups that require a compact but capable tripod mount. Highly recommended!

As a tripod it works well. The bluetooth function was easy to pair with my phone. The down side is the ball mount itself. It is difficult to adjust and the mount has to be stored in the upright position in order for it to be securely connected to the screw mount.

I recently went on a cruise and I love taking Timelapses. When I don’t have my GoPro or my g7x, I use my iPhone X. It held my phone securely and without any movement. The magnets are stronger than anticipated, bu I wouldn’t use it in a precarious situation.

I was unsure about this product before purchasing. I didn't think it could hold my iPhone 7 Plus with added case (speck candy shell), however it fit nicely, and was very stable. The Bluetooth shutter button is easy to use, and has a strong range, which can make for amazing pictures/videos. Would highly recommend!
