I was about to write a horrible review on this thing until I figured out I was being a moron. After figuring out what I was doing wrong though I have to say this is a pretty nifty device. I most definitely would NOT recommend this if you want to use it with a professional digital SLR camera. It will be a pain to get it to stand sturdy and not wobble, but if you have a just want to take some great pictures with your iPhone or a point and shoot digital camera this is definitely a viable option. I love how you can just throw it in a bag and it doesn't take a lot of space.

A very good and versatile product, but not an irrefutable solid I was looking for. Works great but it is not professional, commercial quality. Still, a useful tool I am glad to have.

It does the job for its price, but hard to lock the phone mounted sidewise. The remote also loses pairing frequently.

Overall, this tripod is a conveniently designed, affordably priced, light weight accessory that will take up minimal space in any backpack. It is a flexible accessory due not only to its size and weight but also its multi-use design to accommodate various types of small cameras. I have given this tripod a generous 4 star rating which may a bit of a stretch due to some limiting factors in its design which include: the spring in the phone clamp is too strong and will leave marks on soft phone cases (a screw adjustable clamp would be better); the short legs with some flex make the tripod unstable at full extension in all but the most protected positioning with the lightest cameras.

The built quality of the tripod is average. When I fixed my iPhone 14 pro max to take a photo using the tripod , the tripod couldn't stand and was about to fall every time I tried it. The tripod needs extremely flat surface and without breeze to stand straight with a heavy phone. So basically only light weight phones are suitable for tripod use. In Selfie stick mode, the remote worked very well and overall also its good in selfie stick mode.

It is good. Especially for traveling. I used it in a solo trip and every time I travel people always wanna know where I got it from. It's great to use at the airport for those waiting times. Works as a holder to watch programs while sitting comfortably. And I use it everyday for those facetime calls. And of couse to take solo pictures. I had it for over a year already and it works great.
Only dislike is that I have an Iphone 14 Max an it seems to be a bit heavy for the holder so it loosens up and got to balance the tripod, but at the end it stills holds it. 9/10 recommend.

The build quality is good, works as a wonderful tripod for my iPhone. However, when extended fully and set up as a tripod, gusts of wind can topple it, so the user needs to be mindful of any wind. The bluetooth shutter button is fantastic, and I like it overall.

I use this when I travel across the Atlantic ocean, because it is truly portable. It works well with my tiny action camera (Yi 4k) and my compact camera (Canon PowerShot S110). It takes up very little space and is very light weight. It can easily fit into my day bag used for touring. It's multi-functionality is another plus.

Great Selfie Stick/Tripod for the Price

Really easy to use selfie stick and tripod. It collapses into a pretty small size so it's easy to carry and travel with. The phone attachment can be a little janky and it isn't as stable the higher you make the tripod, but overall, for the price, it's perfect and very easy to use.

Flimsy as a stand. Great as a Selfie Stick

This is a neat dual purpose tripod. I initially wanted something that can hold my iPhone XR to record as a stable platform tripod. I picked his up hoping this would meet my needs. After a couple weeks using it, here are my thoughts:
Pros:
- Dual Purpose: This can work as a Tripod or as a Selfie stick. It comes with a remote control that you can pair with your phone. Setting up is pretty simple and straight forward, but I found myself using the selfie stick set up more than the tripod.
- Phone Security: Your phone is not going anywhere. The grip is well built and I'm glad that I know it is secured.
-Grip Accessories: this comes with 2 connectors to choose from on how you have your phone set up: Portrait or Landscape.
Cons:
- Tripod set up. It will tip over. I was disappointed in this that it is not stable. I nearly broke my phone because it almost fell over. Also, it only extends up to 3 ft high, therefore you have a "looking up" set up when you are recording yourself.
- Grip does not extend enough: If you have a iPhone Plus (6 on up), you have to take it out of it's case and have the phone fully exposed in the grip. The clamps will not extend enough to hold your phone in a case. I normally use an Otterbox and it will not extend enough to hold your phone in the case.
Overall, it's a decent 2-in-1 design. I just wished that it would at least extend a little higher than the 3 feet, but as a selfie stick it's perfect.

Easy to carry and take photo but also easy to fall

We use it in our trip to London and Paris, easy to carry and shoot family photos. But it is very easy to fall, with a little wind, when pod needs to be longer. It is overall very nice, but I hope the bottom part can be stronger.

It truly does feel like a 6 in 1 tripod. Great for selfies, vlogging and photo shoots with phones and go pros and has the mount adapters for them. However for heavier camera models I felt it kinda weak but that could just be my perspective, it doesn't fall short for being almost versatile with any recording device.

The materials used to make this are on the lower end which I expected when I paid $15 for this. Other then that it works fairly well but I wouldn't advise using this on a heavier dslr, but it worked great for my sony zv-1 :)

Purchased as a Christmas present for our son. Son has TBI and mental health issues combined. It is hard for him to follow instructions and put things together. With little help from his father he has been able to do these and use the tripod. Very exciting because our son takes nature pictures of birds, deer and other wild animals on our 10 acres. It is his only hobby and one source of happiness.

Works well. It doesn’t work as well with my case as I’d like. The space on the case with the clip is very small. A little flimsy, but its quite inexpensive, so for the price, a good tripod/selfie stick.

This is a good tripod for the price. But the quality is not great and might not be the best in slightly windy conditions

What’s Great:
Very affordable and travel-friendly.
Great flexibility for various shooting scenarios.
Useful remote shutter included.
Ideal for casual content creators using phones or action cams.
What’s Not as Strong:
Lightweight build can compromise stability, especially at full height.
Not suitable for heavier DSLR gear.
Might require some improvisation (e.g., packing peanuts or flat surface) for sturdier setup.

Good quality. The only problem for me was the tripod legs that broke off after extended use.
