    This did exactly what I needed - I was able to clip in my phone, wrap the legs around a tree branch, and get great family pictures.

    Great Tripod. You bought this to use for my Public Speaking class. It was easy to use, sturdy, and easy to lock my phone in. It was a little stiff when taken out of the box. However, after a few usages it was more flexible.

    Love this tripod the more I use it but I can’t always get the stands to grip around an object when I need it to and it’s a very short tripod

    Versatile and adjustable tripod for small cameras & phones. Included a clamp that is able to hold my iPhone 12 Pro in an Otterbox case. Bendable legs can be “closed” (think short selfie or vlogging grip), standard tripod position, spread for low shots & wrapped on a post, small tree limb, chain link fence, etc.

    Great tripod for iPhone videos. The flexibility is good and love that it wraps around anything so you're not always looking for a flat surface. Great piece to add to your photography/videography collection. Easy to use and set up.

    Perfect for carrying to take pictures with the phone. Great for pictures you want to zoom in on. Have 50 power on phone so works great for that because I can not hold steady enough

    Yes, I use this more for Watching videos. The legs are adjustable so you can adjust the height of the stand. The instructions aren’t the best but once you figure out how to use it, it’s a great item. To expand/open the attachment to fit your phone, you must release the clamp/ lock in the back. Once you’ve inserted your phone, close the lock back to secure your phone in place. Overall a great item

    This tripod is awesome. My Son is using this for his work. It's flexible and we can use it at any angle on tilted locations as well. He is using Xbox camera which is very heavy to mount and this pod can easily handle it. overall its a great product.

    This tripod is the perfect size to fit in a small backpack and carries my Sony RX-100 iii well. My only complaint is the lack of quick release plate so I opted to buy an additional 3rd party accessory. NOTE: I bought it on sale for $29.99

    Overall hyperfunctional tripod designed to take any position and make it work. Does its job well. Not the easiest thing to hold onto with all 3 legs together; honestly not sure how people use this for a selfie/vlog thing they hold on to and walk around. All the same, great for being whatever shape you need, whenever.
