    I thought this would be a handy little tripod, but the spring latch stopped holding the mount securely after a day of use. I would have returned it, but had drilled holes into the legs to mount it.

    This item is beginner friendly but after using for a few days can be a hassle. I did not like this tripod and eventually exchanged it for a better tripod more suitable for me.

    Might hold a cell phone if it isn't to heavy, and it does come with the hardware to mount a cell phone. It will not manage my smaller point and shoot. It will also hold my cube lights so it won't go entirely to waste.

    Didn't last a week before the spring inside the unit broke and fell off making this completely useless. Poor ball head design. Stay away from this one. Go with the Nikon key mission.

    didn't lock very well and felt all around cheap, granted the price is pretty telling of that but there are still far better options even at that price point.

    Functions as a tripod but not good

    So while this sort of works, if you try to put the phone/camera at any other angle, the whole thing tips over. Also the legs are not adjustable so the tripod has quite a wide base.

    I don't like it, feels very cheap my camera can't even go on this straight because the ball head won't allow it to be perfectly straight.

    If you have a heavier phone (Galaxy Note 8 in an Otter Box) you might have mixed results. This thing has a hard time supporting the weight. I would recommend you buy the beefier Joby instead.

    Not a very good tripod for anything top heavy or heavy for that matter. Locking mechanism isn't very strong.
