    Great concept but too weak for my heavy cameras. Works with a phone but still tips depending on what angle you’re shooting. Also not much grip on the foam legs. Go with a Joby instead.

    This tripod was smaller than I expected but nonetheless it is very versatile and easy to use. I can mount either my phone or a camera, and bendable legs allow one to set it up in a variety of positions. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that I would need a table or some other solid stand to set it on.

    I found this so easy to use for my iPhone and GoPro. I easily put it on the fence and it held up well. I’ve tried some others but they broke easily and were harder to connect to a fence for pickleball!

    I purchased this mount as it was half the cost of some of the other mounts and I have used it on several backpacking/fishing trips and it has held up well. If you leave your phone mounted in the holder and walk around a bunch it is liable to get loose but it is not often enough to be a fatal flaw.

    Multi-Use and Lighter Than Competitors

    Purchased as a cost efficient alternative to buying another joby brand. Functions just as good and is lighter than my gorilla pods. I carry it more when I'm using my smaller commute bag. Adjustment points and tension allow me to use it with a mini-projecter, ipad air and GoPro. Screw type mount is compatible with most of my device mounts. Even used it to mount a spotting scope for bird watching.

    This is a must have if, like me you have your phone in your hand all day. I was haveing pains in my arm due to holding my phone. I just sit the tripod next to me and use my phone hands free. I also take lots of pictures for my social media accounts and it insures crisp pictures. It comes with a Bluetooth remotes to control snapshots at a distance. I enjoythe stand better than my phone.

    Grips work good. It's a little wonky to try and get them all back straight but I do like that it come with a connection for a GoPro mount!

    Small But Mighty – Perfect for On-the-Go Content!

    I recently picked up the Sunpak Gripper Bendable Tripod, and I’m seriously impressed by how versatile and sturdy it is for such a compact size! The flexible legs make it easy to wrap around poles, railings, or set up on uneven surfaces—perfect for travel, vlogging, or quick content shoots. It holds my phone and compact camera securely, and I love how lightweight it is—easy to throw in a bag and go. It’s also great for hands-free video calls or steady shots on the fly. If you’re a content creator, photographer, or just someone who wants a reliable little tripod, this one’s a solid choice and well worth the price!

    I enjoy this a lot. Things I like: I can change angles and move the legs around. I can take the top off and place it on an actual tripod. Easy to store and travel with. Dislikes: Phone is very hard to secure at times. I have had it pop out multiple times in the middle of filming. You find a nice angle but notice the legs or part of the stand is in your shot. Height limits unless you want to stack on objects or put on a different tripod. Other things to note: I have a Galaxy S20 for size references. I can only put my phone vertical in the holder. It gets the job done for small projects you would use your phone with anyway. I would recommend. *I have only used this a few times so far. I will update my review if I find something worth mentioning*

    Works well, smells bad.

    I'm using this with my phone and wrapping the legs around something like a pole to record certain angles. It holds up fine with a phone, but I don't think it would be able to handle a camera with a large lens or other accessories. It works fine for what I need, but I will say that the foam or plastic it is made out of smells pretty bad. I did get this as an open box deal so maybe that's the reason for the smell, or possibly the reason it was returned... But in terms of functionality it works perfectly fine, just be careful that you don't put something too heavy.

    The individual joints in the legs allow for specific placements of my footage. I was hesitant at by at first because of the price but I’ve had no issue getting the specific angle I need for video footage. This tripod allows for vertical and horizontal photos and videos with the moveable top. Only issue I have is there is no counter balance on the bottom of the tripod making it top heavy when a phone or camera is installed. I have worked around this with welding the tripod between two rocks or placing heavy objects around the legs.

    Package was very easy to use. And it even contains a device to remotely take a picture. I'll be using it at a Family Reunion to get the whole family in the picture without anyone getting left out.

    I’ve been using the Sunpak Gripper Bendable Tripod for a couple of weeks, and it has quickly become a go-to accessory for my mobile photography and video needs. The bendable legs make it incredibly versatile, allowing me to wrap it around various objects for unique angles and stable shots. Despite its flexibility, the tripod remains sturdy and reliable. It’s lightweight and compact, making it perfect for travel. For the price, it offers excellent value and quality. Highly recommended for anyone needing a portable and adaptable tripod solution!

    I like the tripod can be manipulated for certain angles, the only dislike I have is its not taller. Overall I’d give this item a solid 4 of 5 recommendations.

    Bought this because I needed something within hours before going Live. It loses balance easily and offsetting the legs to make it balance better messes with the height of the camera. Not really good for top down views if the cam is heavy (I have a iPhone 15 Pro Max, they heavy). Try to get something better on Amazon, but if you need this on the fly, it'll do...

    This is probably the best thing I’ve bought for content creation in the last year. I highly recommend it. The legs are pliable and allow you to wrap them around anything that is small enough in circumference to get a grip perfect for on the go content creation.
