55″ Phone Tripod, PHOPIK Aluminum Extendable Tripod Stand with Shutter, Carrying Bag, Compatible with iPhone/Android/Sport Camera&Insta 360 x5 Perfect for Video Recording/Selfies/Live Stream/Vlogging

My first phone tripod.
I was recently asked to review the PHOPIK Phone Tripod and I gotta say I was pretty impressed.I’ll start with the Pros.1. The tripod itself is actually pretty sturdy. The build quality feels pretty solid and it definitely does exactly what its intended for.2. The fact that its so light means you can strap it to your camera bag w virtually no extra weight added. Thats a big plus because sometimes I want a tripod and don’t want to carry a big one with me all day.3. The inclusion of a Bluetooth remote was an extra added bonus. It’s a nice touch that I accidentally overlooked at first. The ability to remotely shoot stills and video without touching your phone to avoid and shake is great or get selfies or yourself in group shots is smart.4. They’re aren’t any crazy bells and whistles here (which is good) its simple and intuitive to use. It’s not overly complex.5. The price. $25.99 is actually great deal for this tripod. Remember it’s a phone tripod after all. Dont break your bank.The Cons:1. It didn’t come with instructions, which honestly isn’t that big deal but some people will want that. Most people know how to pair a bluetooth trigger but maybe some don’t and I could see someone getting frazzled with that. Again, personally, for me it’s neither here nor there but it’s worth mentioning.2. I mentioned that the build quality is solid and I stand by that but there’s one piece I’d like to mention. The leg bracing. Its plastic and works perfectly fine but its thin. I know a lot of people tend to hang a shot bag or on bigger tripods hang a traditional sandbag from it but I don’t recommend doing so. Like I said it’s plastic which is understandable. If you want to add some weight for stability, hand a shot bag or a water bottle off of one of the pins.Conclusion:This piece of gear works really well, is a solid build and at the price I’d definitely recommend it. Again, the bluetooth is a nice add on and you cant beat the price. I’ve included some shots of the gear itself so you can see what it looks like in RL as well as time-lapse I did the other night.I’ll part-two this when I take it on a portrait run.

Worth It – Good Quality!
This is worth it! Good quality. I bought this to take on a solo 19 day road trip and it worked out amazing! First, it comes with a little carrying case which is so convenient. It also has a remote control that was effortless to use (there was one time that I might have been too far away, like really far away, and it didn’t work or it might have been because my phone was overheating from it being 120 degrees outside. LOL. Either way, that was the only time I had an issue with the remote). The tripod itself is also very easy to use! The legs extend so you have different height options. Honestly I never bother with extending the legs – using it on the first level always worked out perfectly (I’m 5’6) and it’s really sturdy. I used it hiking, in sand, uneven ground, etc. If you’re looking for a good quality tripod this is it!! 10/10 recommend. 🙂 It’s lightweight and you can set it up in 20 seconds or less. Here are some pictures I took on my road trip using the tripod with my iphone xs.

Excellent option
Great deal. Easy to use and transport. Satisfied with product and no complaints

How can I forget this purchase
I love to take photos and videos of my family during special events like birthdays and anniversaries. Before buying this product either me or my husband will be missing in the videos or photos, because we are the ones who will be taking photos. Thanks to Amazon and PHOPIK for this product. Very useful, sturdy, and convinient to use.
