Beware Buyers
This product is great for my iPhone 7.If you have iPhone 6, 7, 8, or X this will work out great but, if you have the Plus size iPhone this will have limited range of motion but still be useable.

Great alternative to Gimbal with EIS action cams and much more versatile
I purchased this item to be used with my Samsung Galaxy phone and my GoPro style action cams.Uses with my Samsung Galaxy phone:It works great as a selfie stick and tripod. The bluetooth remote paired up easily with my phone and makes it simple to take family portrait selfies by pressing the snap shot button on the remote which is mounted in the handle without needing to use the timer function on my phone like I did in the past. I love the versatility where I can additionally set this on a table and use it as a tripod and then remove the remote and take photos and videos. The phone holder holds my phone securely in either portrait or landscape modes without pressing on any of the side buttons. It's also very compact making it very convenient to travel with. I'm thinking I may purchase another one to leave in the center console of my car since it's compact enough to fit in there and since I carry my phone with me everywhere it would be an additional convenience to have a tripod and self-stick nearby when traveling.Uses with my GoPro action cams:I was originally considering getting a gimbal but since I purchased action cams which had EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization), I kept asking myself if I really needed a gimbal and pay that additional money for something the camera already had built into it. At this point, I feel the answer is no I don't need to purchase a gimbal. Combined with an action cam with EIS, this does everything a gimbal does and more since I can also use it as a portable tripod and selfie stick, or just raise the camera up higher with the telescoping extension to capture overhead views. Most of the gimbals I looked at had separate attachment legs so you could use it as a tripod where having the built in tripod legs as part of the handle makes this much more convenient and practical, as well as none of the gimbals have a telescoping extension for tripod height adjustment.The only drawback I saw while using this with my action cams is that the bluetooth remote becomes useless because my action cams don't have a bluetooth remote control feature. However, that is not the fault of this device. My action cams came with their own remote so I need to use that remote instead.Overall, I really like this device due to how compact it is while being very versatile in functionality at the same time for uses either with my action cams and smart phone and it gives me everything and more to use it as a gimbal at a fraction of the price of a gimbal. I would suggest to anyone considering buying a gimbal to purchase a camera with good built-in electronic image stabilization in it instead to use with this device, and then get the additional added conveniences this nifty item provides over and above a gimbal.I own multiple tripods for my cameras, but this has now become my go to device due to how compact, convenient and versatile it is and at this price, I'll be purchasing more to leave in my vehicles.

Very easy to use, nice portable size
I bought this in order to take pictures inside tight areas, and I haven't been disappointed. It's easy to extend, extends quite a bit, and holds the phone very still. I think it would also make a great holder for video conferencing, although I haven't used it for that yet.The storage of the remote is nice, one can either use it connected to the stick or remove it. I wish there was an ability to select video or photo from the remote or to toggle between front and back camera. But it is what it is and I really haven't minded too much. I just have to plan accordingly.

Fantastic little selfie-stick, perfect for smartphone, cameras and GoPro!
This selfie-stick is perfect for my needs. The build quality is very high, mostly metal with a nice finish. The stick telescopes out to 20+" (vs 9" for the GoPro Shorty), and compacts down into a short tabletop tri-stand. It comes with adapters to accommodate a smartphone (spring clamp), standard camera mount (1/4" 20-tc) and my "GoPro" action-cam mount. The "head" of the selfie stick has a hinge for angled pics, ideal for when you extend out and get a group selfie. The hinge is good and stiff so there's no chance it will "flop" right when you snap the pic. It has a small, rechargeable Bluetooth camera shutter button, which you can remove from the stick (good if you are around water).Note: The Bluetooth shutter button will not pair to the GoPro Hero 7. Not sure about other models.This selfie stick is perfect for simple hand-carrying, tabletop extended exposure, big group selfies, and so much more. It saved me almost 45% vs the GoPro Shorty tri-pod selfie-stick. The quality of materials and finish is excellent. I recommend.

LOVE !! this self stick - slick design & tons of features
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the sleek design. The stick folds up easy and fits in to small spaces. BUT it does so many things, you can use it as a trip or out at full reach. The fact that the remote has it's on little space is a totally cute design. It's always there when you need it. I have to say, I have a variety of stick but this one, is the one I always bring with me. You WILL NOT be disappointed if you purchase this one. Love it!

Great tool for group photos
We took this for the time to Machu Picchu in Peru with a group and I absolutley loved it. It is super easy to use, small & compact for fiting in my backpack or purse and was very easy to connect. We can easily take group photo's selfies, videos etc... Several people from my trip ended up buying one as well based on seeing how easy it was to use!

May Be Too Short For Your Needs, But May Also be an Advantage
I neither like nor dislike this selfie stick. It works as advertised and is truly compact. I can't comment on the durability of this product yet, but will be traveling the next 1-1/2 weeks and will update then. So far, my only negative is the telescopic length of 26 inches. I should have gotten a tape measure and seen what exactly 26" looks like. But I don't think it will take too much away from my photos and videos. Overall, I'm hoping it will do a good job overall.

Extremely Versatile and Useful
This item is more than just a selfie stick. I use it to take stills and videos for my recumbent triking YouTube channel. It's extremely versatile, folding down so small it fits into my pants pocket. I only use it with my OnePlus 6T smartphone right now, but it also comes with adapter parts for use with GoPros and other action cameras (I also have Hero 7 Black). The tripod and extension length work well for almost everything I need; the only drawback is the tripod legs are short, so a bit of wind can tip it over if it's extended too high (I've only had this happen very rarely). The small Bluetooth remote snaps right into the stick, and really makes shooting recordings and stills from a distance easy.In summary, this is one handy device. Just be sure to keep track of the remote. I lost mine last week. I contacted the seller, who told me you can't buy them separately.
