    Works but just a wee bit flimsy. Clip for phone is small and feels like it may break just opening it wide enough for my Samsung. Check out other aisles beside this isle. Best Buy should have had all choices in the same area

    Bought it for the tripod. Tripod was great and took a lot of abuse. The light was fine but not very helpful in terms of actually lighting anything. And the mic was unreliable, sometimes great and sometimes with a lot of audio feedback, like popping or static.

    I like the stand, the led lights. But not so much the mike. It doesn’t seem to make a big difference between my phones mic and the one with the kit. It does not remove surrounding extra noise

    Good device for a beginner. The tripod is not as stable as I like. Also, the light does not hold a charge for a long time. I could not get the microphone to work on my Note 20 Ultra 5G either.

    The remote button does work. It really feels tight on the iPhone 13 but had to take it out of the case. The microphone does not work

    Works as stated as a stabilizer, however the mic is not a whole lot more useful than the device mic.

    It's a interesting item. Fully loaded on what you might need or use to work for. Mic picks up everything and lighting is great. Might look like might not work at first glance, yet surprised me on a budget.

    It felt cheap and I told myself I could live with it because I did not need it to be portable. I wound up returning it for a better model.

    Nice set-up, but it is top heavy with the larger iPhones. I had to anchor it as it kept falling over. I was doing close-up videos.

    It’s a good tripod but the remote will not find my phone so it’s pretty much just a holder

    The microphone was no different than using the iPhone microphone itself. The light is definately bright and is worth a purchase if you need one. The stand was very flimsy. It would be knocked over with small vibrations and felt very cheap.
