GorillaPod 1K kit comes with Ballhead and 1K Stand. I feel the design is very solid and the color is improved for the GorillaPod hybrid.
Joby has made solid equipment before and I'm glad I'm jumping into Joby now with the new line of 1k, 3k, and 5k.
I will review this again after I have at least a month of testing. This unboxing and video was done very fast and hopefully, this gives you a good idea of what you will be getting with the 1k.

Very hansy tripod and a nice size. Not real compact but smaller and more flexible thatn many rigid leg mid size tripods. Can work for phones or adapt to DSLRs too.

Nice tripod. Flexible legs allow it to stand level on just about any (uneven) surface. The screw holding phone clip could be tighter, as my phone would not always stay steady and in place. Other than that I like this product.

The GorillaPod tripod for camera is very effective. I can place it anywhere and position the angle of the camera easily to get the best photo. I also purchased the Ulanzi ST-27 Iron Man IV Phone Clip to attach to the GorillaPod tripod so I could use my phone. This is an excellent combo if you want to use your phone for photos.

Bought this tripod for streaming. It is very convenient, flexible yet sturdy and mobile. You can adjust it to hold on to different items such as a rail or just leave it upward on a table or desk. Reasonably priced.

This is the best tripod I've used for a webcam. It provides plenty of positioning options and it doesn't break with use. I've been using this for the past year and it's still working very well.

Have you ever wanted to take a group photo and there was no level place to set your tripod or you hated lugging around a full-size tripod. This little tripod is great. the bendable legs will wrap around most anything to give support to your cell phone or an actual camera. Recently we were on a pontoon boat and the best place was the steering wheel.

Got this for our college age film student. It's lightweight and the flexible legs will allow you to level set on uneven surfaces. This isn't pro level equipment, but at this price you shouldn't expect it to be. For the price, it's pretty hard to beat, according to the picky film student.

Great product with flexibility to adjust top nearly any configuration you need for a decent price. Standard screw connection fits adapters and cameras without an issue.

I’ve tried all the GorillaPod knock offs and none are close to the real thing. It’s lightweight, durable and easy to use. It’s the only brand I buy now. Highly recommended!

Love the sturdiness of this thing. I wrapped it around the rear view mirror in my truck, and it holds my iPhone 12 Pro with an Otterbox Defender case just fine! I love how sturdy it is, as I have used some of the window mount types in the past, and on cold days, they’ll suddenly just drop onto the floor as you’re driving. Not this one...very sturdy.
And it doubles as a mini tripod as well!
Best Buy / N Canton was helpful as usual!

Light weight. Performed exactly as described! Easy to set up on uneven terrain or wrap around objects to take great pics. Took it on a 4 day Inca Trail hike. Worth the weight!

this definitely works great as a handheld or to wrap it around an object for a cool view. It kind of struggles if the camera is a heavy DSLR, specially if you are trying to attached it at a weird angle but for vlogging cameras its great no matter where you place it.
