I love it… It did come with a dead battery but thankfully my mom is the battery queen! Still 5* though!

Remote quit working after one day
Great little tripod, will come in handy for family FaceTime calls…BUT…since the remote doesn’t work at all — it never connected via Bluetooth, cheap little plastic gizmo, it won’t work for family group photos.

Critical device for self isolating during COVID pandemic
I just wanted to add to the abundant positive reviews for this product. It’s been a life changer for me during COVID-19 quarantine. I actually purchased this tripod for a trip last year which I unfortunately didn’t end up going on, so I hadn’t really used it at all until the pandemic. It’s been essential for me to video chat with my friends and family. The length is perfect for a table or desktop. I sort of forgot it came with a remote as well, but I just used the remote yesterday and that has been absolutely TRANSFORMATIONAL — really taken my selfie game up to that next level. Connected to my iPhone 11 perfectly and it’s so small that you can’t even tell I’m holding it in most shots. I can also get videos by just holding the button down. Now I can take really cool selfies for my social media profiles, and I can’t wait to take this thing traveling with me when things open back up again. The legs are really strong and durable for me. It sort of creates the perfect length selfie stick as well when you mush all three legs together. The foam is really grippy and comfortable to hold. I did have to upgrade this product with a different attachment for a smartphone so that I can support my phone in portrait mode. I technically could before, but it was not pretty and It put a lot of weight over to one side. Just look for a “universal swivel smartphone tripod mount”. I think that’s what it was called 🙂 It was about $10, but I think both products combined for $30 is a steal for what you get, it’s soo versatile and it’s made connecting with my friends and family so much easier.

The best way to photograph the whole group
Took this on a big family trip to Europe. It was nice to get group shots that included everyone.The remote is easily connected with Bluetooth. You can quickly take lots of shots so you know you’ll get one where everyone looks good.The tripod legs are bendy, so they can grip a tree, a sign post, etc, or be level on uneven surfaces.

Sturdy and configurable in many positions for my coin viewing
The media could not be loaded.
I love this tripod. I use it to view coins with my phone. It’s easy to set in place, to change it on a whim.The legs don’t slide, and the tripod is sitting on top of a glass table.Depending on my viewing of the coin, I have to view up close, so I move or bend the legs accordingly, to get close to my object. I need to go a further distance up, presto as 1-2-3. I put the legs straight, which I have no problem doing at all. It doesn’t take a force of nature; I can straighten them completely with no problem and now am at a higher viewing distance. So, this works for me excellently.I like the top being on a ball, that way I can move the phone with it in different viewing positions, especially down, left, right, especially when I attach a close-up lens to the phone.It’s a sturdy product. I also like the soft cushiony pressable covering of the legs, and the top is solid, holds the phone securely and it’s easy to get the phone in and out of the top piece, by pulling on it (it expands when pulling left).As far as I’m concerned, it’s a great product.I have also used it with my Lumix camera (which weighs about 1.4.lbs). After that, placed it with the tripod on the floor, to charge, and it holds just fine. I probably won’t use this setup most of the time, since it is a heavy camera, but it does work if needed.In the video, my phone on the premium tripod, the camera on the Ubeesize Pro tripod, the and Ubeesize light. Which is excellent, especially for viewing coins. You can even use the light in total darkness. I think the trio serves me well.

Decent but not wonderful
This stand is adequate, but if you can afford something sturdier, get that instead. This one was fine in the beginning, but it quickly lost a lot of its holding power and now it’s really hard to get it to hold my phone tight or straight. The knobs don’t tighten well after a short time of usage.

love it!
This is an incredibly versatile tripod! Hook it on a window seal, hang it from a tree branch or just sit it flat on a desk. Its like an all terrain vehicle for your phone. You can move it in plenty of angles with the ball joint and lock it into place. I’ve had no issues with the lock loosening, it stays really sturdy.

IT’S PERFECT
I bought this for a vacation and it was perfect. My iPhone 14 ProMax and my husband’s Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra both fit in the phone holder securely.I did have an issue with the remote, the one I received did not power on and would not connect. I contacted the company and they QUICKLY sent a replacement. The new one immediately showed up in my Bluetooth and snapped a pic on my phone.

Ok but not the most easy to use. Broke in less than 3 months.
Updated: November 2020The company did send me a replacement tripod. The model appears to be updated as the original version could be separated from the legs. That caused a log of problems because sometimes it would separate during my live videos. The new one is one piece which is much better. The vertical position is still very unsteady and I find the whole unit wants to fall over unless it is in a very specific position. I have not bent the legs on to wrap them around things as I didn’t the previous model because I know the outcome if I do. I finally gave in a bought a free standing 4 foot collapsable tripod that doesn’t go off balance when in vertical or horizontal position but it is from another company.This product is fine if you only use it in the horizontal position and never need to adjust it. Overall, I recommend you save you time and money and purchase a different tripod.I tried to upload a picture of the new tripod put my computer and Amazon were not cooperating today. Maybe they will later.Original ReviewI bought this when everything shut down on March 14. It was delivered on March 17 and I used it weekly for my sons’ remote piano lessons on Zoom, Google meets with my students, I loved it for going live on Facebook for Norwex parties. I attached into my towel bar in the bathroom or a makeup removal cloth demo, used it in the kitchen for cleaning demos. It got a workout and I liked the versatility of being able to wrap the legs around different things to get the best cameral angles. But there lies the problem. Last night I was setting up to go Live on Facebook for a party demo. One of the legs appears to be a little loose. When I looked closer it fell off the metal inside the leg had snapped. My 12 year old, “That was bound to happen because when you bend metal it weakens.” The kid does pay attention to physical science. Ha! He saved me by becoming my camera man for the night, hopefully the party guests weren’t too seasick afterwards order! Any way aside from that there were a few other things I don’t love about the tripod.1. When the Phone is in horizontal view it’s great. It’s nice and sturdy, but when switching to vertical it sets off-balanced. I had issues with the tripod wanting to fall over if the legs aren’t splayed extra wide.2. There are two little buttons that release the top mount from the base of the tripod. This are very easy to bump if you are try to adjust the phone while on camera. Several times the phone fell off the tripod because of getting bumped while try to to adjust the camera angle.3. The parts didn’t always stay tight. There were definitely times when the video was interrupted but having to stop and tighten the score that held the swivel over the ball-joint in place.I really wanted to like this tripod and would still be using it if it had not broken. I looked for information on a warranty and can’t find it. Apparently the company used to offer a lifetime warranty on this product then switched to you have to buy it at purchase. I didn’t buy it and can’t find any info on a a short term warrant. I was hoping that it will be remedied.

Absolutely decent for the price point
I needed a flexible tripod and didn’t want to spend a lot of money, this fits my needs perfectly.It’s very lightweight but seems sturdy enough to support most phones.Since I usually shoot vertically, I did find that the attached mount didn’t allow for the mount to be completely straight at a 90-degree angle, so I had to use an additional swivel mount for more height and greater adjustability. It throws the balance off a bit, but that’s not a fault of design.The remote actually works really well and I am delighted to have it.Overall, it’s a good buy if you’re in the market for a lightweight flexible tripod.

Top quality – low price!
I have my iPhone in a protective case and the clamp is large – so easily grips phone without need to take out of otter box case. I have been photographer for years and have handled lots of equipment – and this is very well designed and constructed. After I order I was worried maybe I tried to buy cheap product – but now that I use it – I am so happy with quality and low price! The bluetooth set up was super easy. Battery was already installed and it took about 30 seconds to read instructions and sync shutter button.

Not too had for a little tripod
For the price, I’m surprised with how sturdy this thing is. It holds its shape not so good that it’s impossible to move, but enough that it stays in place, even when hugging around a tree.The phone clamp is sturdy too. I have zero problem trusting it to hold my phone. My Otterbox case probably helps give the clamp a better grip too.My only skepticism is the size. I wouldn’t mind if the legs were a little longer so you’d have more to work with for unique camera shots. But overall, this thing is pretty good.I don’t use the remote function. No need when my phone camera has a timer setting.

Love this guy, use him almost daily
Bend it to compensate for holding your phone sideways; flexible, sturdy but not stubborn, well up to the task of holding onto your phone for videos. Just watch the clip; it will spring off if you don’t strap in the phone carefully, just during set up, not afterwards. Over half the videos at integr8dsoul.com were composed with at least one camera set up on this stand.

With a few small tweaks, a solid tripod
The legs seem to be pretty effective and I’ve felt no issues with them so far. Personally it irritates me that I won’t likely ever be able to get them perfectly straight again, but that’s a purely superficial trade-off that I knew I was making by getting a tripod where the legs can be wrapped around poles and other vertical objects. It felt definitively sturdy when I wrapped it around fairly small poles, and of course it stands upright just fine.The clipping mechanism, however, has room for improvement. First of all, I’m not a fan of the fact that the vertical mounting screw can easily be detached from the base. There are two buttons, one on each side, that releases the mounting screw and anything on the other end. You have to be quite certain that you’ve fully clicked it into place to know your phone is secure. If you haven’t heard the click, the phone or camera could fall out without much force. If it’s properly clicked into place, it’s pretty securely fastened, but there’s just a bit of uncertainty. I’d prefer it to just be one solid piece.My other complaints are more minor. The back of the phone clamp has a nice foam backing, but the top and bottom “jaws” are just hard plastic with teeth. Having the foam on the top and bottom jaw would make me feel a bit better about not scuffing my phone, and it’s a firm enough grip that they shouldn’t impact the phone’s stability in the mount. I’ll probably find some foam material and glue it in there to see how it feels soon.Speaking of stability, the hole used to mount the phone clamp vertically (there is a hole on the back that would lay the phone face-up as well) is too shallow, meaning there is some room for the phone clamp to wiggle around. It’s securely attached so it won’t fall off, but the wiggle is undesirable. I’d recommend finding a washer or two and putting those on the screw in between the base and the phone mount. Eliminating that gap with the washers will fix that issue, but it should just be drilled to the proper depth to begin with. Just make sure you leave enough of the screw above the washers to properly secure the phone. The other hole (to mount the phone face-up) is drilled to the proper depth, and I see no reason why this one shouldn’t be.

This is a very affordable, reliable, and portable tripod. Definitely recommend.
This product allowed me to dabble in filming YouTube videos and photography without breaking the bank. This UBeesize tripod is very flexible and allows to get the shots you need, even on uneven surfaces. You can wrap the legs around objects and terrain that you just can’t with a fixed leg tripod. I put this product through an incredible amount of stress and testing, and it held up for a very long time. After a while, I did end up breaking off one of the legs at the plastic connector piece. However, the amount of use I got out of it was well worth the money I paid for the product. I definitely recommend and will be purchasing another.

Extremely satisfied
Okay, I just got the product today but I’ve been playing around with it already and so far I’m loving it. It is way cheaper than some mini-tripods and seems much better than the super duper cheap one that I bought before (which is of cheap quality too ugh). I knew this was better already. I hope it lasts. I bought this especially for an upcoming trip which would be a once in a lifetime trip and I don’t want a ridiculous tripod issue to ruin my trip. Anyway, it seems pretty sturdy. My iPhone xR fits (though the photos I uploaded are all iPhone 6) perfectly fine. It can be tightened that the phone would not accidentally rotate or fall in the middle of taking a picture or video. It can hold a phone in landscape and/or portrait mode. You just have to figure out how to use the other parts included in box. It is pretty easy to assemble. But, yes, you do have to reassemble if you want to change from portrait to landscape and vice versa. The remote works well. You have to connect it to your phone via bluetooth. It has a battery already and so far it works (well, I just bought it so.. I don’t know how long it will last). Of course, the legs of the tripod could be bent here and there. Also, I think the length is okay. The product itself is not too long or heavy to carry around.

Versatile and Easy to use!
I had a month of using this tripod and I have to say it has been super useful. I use it mainly for vlogging with my S8 smartphone around my apartment and sometimes outdoors. But, I don’t do anything too demanding like running shots or extreme sports so I can’t speak to that. For measurements, the tripod with the phone attachment is 13 in. tall and the legs are 9 in. long (1 in of the legs is the plastic part that holds it together so this part is not moldable).Pros:-The legs of the tripod are sturdy and moldable. It can bend around thin 1 in. diameter poles or around wall corners. It may need some support to keep it in place for harder to grip areas, but does the job pretty well at staying put when you place it somewhere.-The cell phone holder attachment can tilt forward for angled shots.-The bluetooth remote is super easy to use and responsive with an On and Off switch at the side.-Legs have rubber feet to keep it stable and helps it stay in place.-When holding the tripod, the length is a decent amount. It’s not too short. I would prefer it be a little bit longer just so I can get better overhead shots.Cons:-I did need to reset the bluetooth on my smartphone each time I used it because my cell would say connected and as I set it to video mode, my cell would go to the photo option. This was a bit annoying at first. After a while, I got used to doing this so it’s not a big deal anymore. FYI, I recommend resetting your bluetooth if you are connecting via bluetooth to your car or other devices.-The cellphone holder attachment would break off if I was too rough in wrapping the legs around something. It’s mostly if you needed to maneuver the top half of the legs, then the attachment would get loose. It can still be reattached with some pliers, but I have to be careful not to force it too much.-It can get dirty because the legs are made of this foam material.TLDR:I’d recommend this for anyone starting out vlogging or needs a tripod for group photos. The remote is super handy for automatically taking a photo or videos. It’s sturdy and has a good grip on my phone. It has a bluetooth remote for handsfree use. The cons are the phone attachment may break off, but it’s an easy fix with pliers, can get dirty easily, and needs resetting bluetooth after each use.

Does exactly what you’d expect and my unit is free of defects.
Yeah, uh. I guess I wrote the whole review in the headline but I’ll speak a bit more about it. A while back I had a different tripod of similar design that I lost a few pieces to. I thought the entire unit was gone and threw away the bits I still could find.Low and behold after trash was taken away I found the rest. Almost within 24 hours. Such is life.So naturally I came to Amazon to ease the pain and stumbled upon this tripod. I suppose I’ll run down my use case for it and the general feelings. I needed this for one of my webcams. I’m going to be doing product reviews and wanted to do picture in picture on my videos. Dollars to donuts I’ll be the only person watching them but it passes the time, so who cares.The legs themselves are sturdy. They have just the right amount of give when you are positioning them and they seem to hold their position brilliantly. The actual top unit appears to have a standard screw header for cameras and webcams. It works on everything I own but I can’t say if this is a standardized thing across all photography units. I’m not versed in that whole world beyond interest.It also comes with a phone holder which works great on both my old Pixel 1 and my new Pixel 3 XL. So I believe it will likely fit any phone you stick in it that is from the last decade or so. There is also another piece with a leaver on it that honestly I’ve not used yet. I don’t exactly know what it is for, I’m guessing angling along the Z axis but I can’t be sure. Regardless it also is of perfectly acceptable build quality.I don’t normally like giving things 5 stars. Amazon says that this is reserved for “I love it.” and that might be a little strong. But then again as far as tripods go I don’t know what else I’d like from this? I mean it could cook me lunch or something but I don’t really expect that from a tripod.If my unit is indicative of what they normally sell, which I cannot promise, then I would certainly say you won’t regret purchasing it. Assuming the anecdote of my experience is accurate then I don’t see any reason to suggest something else. Even at the time it was one of the most reasonably priced on amazon.Finally, I’ve had literally no issues with my unit so I can’t speak to the customer support. They did message me to see how I was liking it and if I’ve had any issues which is nice. I haven’t, so I didn’t have anything to add really.That’s it I suppose. I hope if you buy one that yours is as nice as mine.

This little tripod is really cool!
I first ordered a different brand and when I got it, there were no instructions – not even a quick guide – and after watching a YouTube video on that brand, it appeared there was a piece or two missing. So I immediately returned that and ordered this one. There were instructions with this one, clear on how to assemble and all parts were provided. I read as many of the reviews as I could before ordering and I don’t understand the ones that say this little tripod will not take stand up if the phone is turned to a down-ward pointing position, that it will tip over. The legs are flexible and adjustable and I curved them so they would withstand a top-heavy phone pointing straight down and it held just fine – no tipping over, no matter how long I left it in that position. I can’t think of any reason I would take a pic or video of anything where this would be directly above it, pointing straight down – I could take that pic myself – but I had still had to find out for myself about that…as long as you position the flexible legs to handle a top-heavy load, it works fine. I used this to take pics of my fearful foster dog with the rescue I volunteer for because if he sees me holding my phone pointing at him, he turns away…but I’ve positioned the tripod with the phone on it to take pics of him where he can’t see it, I can press the remote control to take a pic of him, and it works great!! And I’m going to put this outside by my bird feeders to take pics of birds while I am inside watching them! I do really like this.

I took a chance on ordering this. I was definitely not disappointed with my decision. It can rest on your stomach area while laying down with no discomfort. Your phone can be turned from portrait to landscape easily. It has plenty of adjustments. Lastly, it comes with a handy remote a bit smaller than a fob that’s easy to set-up.

Finally a tripod for my camera that i can mount ANYWHERE. Wrap it around a chair, tree limb, chandelier, whatever. No more selfies that cut you below the chest. Now you and your subjects can be in full length photos with the full background. Everyone who saw me use this asked me where I got it from. Worth the purchase.

Had it a week – love it so far
While on vacation to visit waterfalls in West Virginia I was frequently reminded of why I wanted something like this. I ordered it so I could have it on our second week visiting the Asheville area of North Carolina. It was really helpful to get different photographic angles inside the Biltmore House, and to get some fun photos in the Italian & Formal Gardens. The conservancy was so packed with people & plants, that having my phone on a slight extension this provided was the only reason I got some images. So yea, this is now a standard piece of my travel kit since it helps as a tripod and just that little extra reach I sometimes need. Time will tell the quality of materials and workmanship, but so far it gives every indication that I’ll be happy with it for quite a while.

Better than asking strangers to take your photo
I purchased this tripod for our roadtrip to several national parks. My boyfriend does not like taking photos, but this purchase justified the need to use it and take photos, so we ended up producing a great photo and video album using this. It also helped because he does not like asking strangers to take photos, so it was justified even more. To use it as a regular stick tripod, it only allows your phone to be held horizontally. If you want vertical photos, you need to wrap it to an object sideways such as a tree branch (see photo). I ended up getting better photos and angles out of this than the photos that strangers took, maybe because they were all terrible photographers, but it’s harder if there are no tall objects to wrap the tripod to. Other places I wrapped the tripod around included the side mirror on my car and a fence.

I like it.
I like the concept of the product. You can use it as a selfie stick or a tripod. The legs are flexible so you can wrap around piles. The only problem I had with this was the three legs were very thick. Hard for even for guys to hold as a selfie stick when you want to hold all three legs together. It’s quite heavy and not as grippy as I thought, so when you are moving around and it’s already to wide of a grip, it kind of ups out of your hand unless you are gripping it real hard. Hard to explain, but it’s not bad as a tripod and if you are just taking selfies standing still.

Not compact for vertical phone position
Everything is fine but if you want to film vertically using your phone, you need to attach two additional accessories, which makes the whole thing very clumsy.

Can’t aim low
Sturdy legs, good grip on the phone clip.Phone clip isn’t deep enough to allow for a pop socket, but deep enough for a thick phone cover.It won’t aim your camera at anything lower than straight across without having to bend the front legs and risk tipping it all over to do it, or by wrapping the legs around something and hanging the camera, which may not be optimal. If you want to film your desktop or workspace, you should look for a different model.

very practical
This tripoid is perfect if you’re traveling or just don’t have enough storage. But obviously you won’t get the best shot if you don’t have a high space to place the tripoid. This is a picture I took with the tripoid on a bench. We didn’t like the angle since it was too low, other than that it’s useful and sturdy

I don’t normally do these but I’m high right now… So I use this to record youtube videos where I do stuff I have never done before as a hobby it’s more of a vlog and I don’t really even want viewers lol I’m a bit shy lol.So this thing goes on many adventures with me, insulating and drywalling garage, digging out and removing 150 lb cement block from backyard, starting and sprouting seeds with a time-lapse, using a sewing machine for the first time…. So yeah hear we goIt’s a little light but it is also made to be light and mobile. while I was sewing I noticed a little shaking in the video so it is as stable as your table is so keep that in mind. also when I shut the garage door video would Shake. I thought that was weird cuz it wasn’t touching anything near the garage door.When tripod feet are together it is sturdy and comfortable in the hand and comes with attachment that makes it easier to uses as a selfie stick, the attachment and stand both have knobs on them careful here don’t want to over tighten these. It’s not that they’re hard to untighten it’s just not comfortable LOL so tighten it enough and check to see if it’ll move with your free hand. And the phone clamp is fairly sturdy and grabs phones tightly, be careful to not clamp your buttons because it will press them but there is a gap in the pad that touches the phone that you can place the buttons in so the buttons won’t get pressed.The controller feels light, might be flimsy? but what do you expect from single chip and a battery? technology is crazy nowadays. The controller works on both my styla 3 and my a30sAre the feet themselves or stable in a low to medium wind situation any higher wind catches your phone in the right way you can see a little bit of it in the video this wouldn’t even bug many people I just noticed it during a specific shot.All around does what you need it to do item.

QUALITY PRODUCT; WIRELESS REMOTE GREAT FOR TAKING PICTURES
Before writing a review, I needed to test the quality of this product. I primarily bought this tripod to film my training sessions, competitive volleyball games, as well as traveling with my phone. The biggest decision in purchasing this product was that it came with a wireless bluetooth remote to remove the hassle of walking back and forth to my phone awkwardly to end filming. This saves some time with editing as well as making the situation a little discreet.Overall, the quality of the product is great. The legs are very thick, sturdy, and resilient. The attachments are easy to install and the pins to adjust the joint are very easy to manipulate. The attachments are made so you can film in landscape or portrait. The attachment for the phone is plastic and I am not confident that it can withstand the impact of being dropped. The product also came with a carry bag which was very convenient if you are traveling.The one thing that docks points with this product from being 5 stars is the wireless bluetooth remote. When purchasing this product, I knew that the remote was already going to need some sort of battery, but it is certainly not a concern. An improvement to the product would be making the wireless remote usb rechargeable. However, the biggest problem I had with the remote is that it would switch my settings from video to photo when I clicked the button. Mind you, I had already manually set the phone to video before using the remote as stated in the directions. This would happen on multiple occasions even after working initially. Another issue I had with this remote is that it would cap out my videos to a maximum of 1:30 seconds. I thought this was an issue with my phone settings, but it was not. After a few more tests, it was obvious that the wireless remote was the cause. I need videos to run longer than this and so the remote feature was disappointing for this specific need of mine.

Not the best for vertical video
You can make the holder work for vertical, you just have to change the orientation of it so that you are using the screw threads on the back and not the side. However, even after that, you have to bend the legs a lot to get the angle right which drops the height you’re filming from a tiny bit. It also forces you to spread the legs out further to support the orientation of the phone, which then takes up more space on my desk. Their older model was better for vertical. So its doable with this model but not exactly ideal.

Fragile, limited stability in certain confirugations
It’s cheap in price, but also in material construction. In less than 2 months the phone holding portion snapped off from its base rendering it unusable without replacement.The tripod legs are flexible and strong, which is great, but the rubber caps on the ends pop off at the lightest touch, and can be easy to lose if you’re using this somewhere you’re on the move (I used mine to hold my phone around one of the roof poles on a golf cart).The range of motion is great, but the stability of holding a phone is dependent on if the socket around the ball joint can be tightened enough to hold your phone stable. With my Galaxy S23, it was only stable when held out straight from that joint, any angle would cause it to rate and the phone would droop/rotate on the ball joint.Some of these can be manually adjusted and with some finagling can be dealt with, but the durability of the thing cannot. Mine broken when all I was doing was putting the phone into the holder in my house.The remote, it should be noted, has an extremely limited range, I found it unreliable if more than 5-6 feet from the phone. Sometimes it would work, sometimes it wouldn’t, and if you’re relying on it to initiate a video or picture it will let you down a good percentage of the time unless you’re directly in front of your phone.

Great customer service! They’re as good as their word!
I really liked the light weight and portability. However, I needed to take vertical shots and this couldn’t do it. I contacted them and after sending them a couple of photos, they offered to replace it with another product they sell. No questions asked! Also, I didn’t need a beast. I have a 3K Joby for my DSLR. But this seems just fine for my XL cell phone.

Works as intended but phone adapter does not tighten all the way to prevent it from moving around.
The media could not be loaded.
UPDATE: The company was very helpful in addressing the issue I was having with tripod phone holder not tightening completely, I really appreciated that. I did also buy a second one and had no problems with it at all, screwed on tightly and securely. Looks like the first one I bought just had a manufacturing defect. Because of this, I will be changing my review from 4 stars to 5 stars I am very excited about this product, hands free video and photo. The remote pairs easily and works perfectly. I see that some of them come with cases but mine did not. I did read under contents that one is not listed. I guess I missed out on the select few that came with one. No big deal.The one thing that prevented me from going to 5 stars is that the phone adapter when installed vertically does not tighten all the way. There is still some play and feels loose. It just keeps spinning and never actually tightening. I tried turning the ring that is under the plastic piece that turns the screw and it is as tight as it can get but still moves around. When the stand is left alone there will be no issue but I was hoping I would be able to walk around with it as well and shoot video. That way, I would be able to use it to stabilize the recording. That is my only gripe with the tripod, if any one knows any fixes or if the tripod does tighten all the way. Let me Know

Big Enough for Big Phones — Even in an Otterbox!
I bought this tripod to use with my Motorola Z Force Droid so that I can photograph myself while I ride my horses in my arena. I do my own photography for my blog and needed an option to be in the shot without having to track someone down to take the picture all the time.My phone is quite large, and I keep it in an Otterbox because dust is a real issue here in Arizona. UBeesize’s cell phone attachment stretches large enough to hold my phone while it is in the Otterbox, and I love that! It succeeds where other tripods failed (most are designed for smaller phones.)The legs are flexible so that I can wrap them around my top arena railing, or I can put it on the ground and it stays standing up. I can angle my phone any direction I want, left or right, up or down, for the perfect shot.The trigger was easy to pair with my phone. It does have a little delay from the time I push the button to when my phone actually takes the picture, but I can work with that. The IOS button is larger and the Android button is smaller so you know you are hitting the right one. I wish I could hold down the button and have my phone take continuous shots (so you get the perfect shot through a series of actions) but it doesn’t seem to work that way. I can only get one shot at a time. But again, not a deal breaker for me and I can work with that. The included lanyard is a nice bonus that I wasn’t expecting. I double it up around my wrist so I can hold the trigger while I ride my horse. I wish the trigger worked with my Nikon camera as well, but that wasn’t a deal breaker for me. The tripod has the attachment so that I can attach my camera to it, and I love that. Not a big deal to buy another trigger for the Nikon.This was a great purchase for the price, and I highly recommend it.

Gives you so much more mobility, freedom and flexibility! Must buy!
Bought this right before a family trip to the Grand Canyon. I wanted to just direct my own shots instead of asking others to take shots over and over again. This gives you a lot more freedom, especially if you know there will be trees or railings around where you are headed.This worked great! The legs are very bendy and very secure; I’ve hung it right side up and upside down on railings, trees, etc. Also just plain put it on benches and other flat surfaces. I set my phone to a timer (3 seconds for shorter or 10 seconds for longer setups) and take the shot! Family photos have never been easier. You can do posed or even ‘candid’ (see picture I took while strapping this to a tree)! At the edge of the Grand Canyon, I even secured it to a railing to film a sunrise one morning and the video came out great. After my trip, I’ve even used this to take an unboxing video and it worked great. It’s essentially just a mini tripod for your phone for any sort of video or photos you might like to take. The ballhead also helps a lot with picture variety as well. You can bend it down pretty far except where the thumbscrew is.If you use the included Bluetooth clicker, you can also just line up your shot first and then click whenever and however many times you’d like. Clicker works well but it disconnects more often than I’d like it to and the reconnection process, while not hard, is definitely not fun to do over and over again.You definitely do not need an expensive mobile tripod option. This is it and works great, even if the Bluetooth clicker is a little finicky. Still well worth the price, especially since timers on phones is a thing!

Best Customer Service
So i bought this tripod before going on a hiking trip. The tripod arrived promptly, and it was everything it should have been. Good quality parts, everything fit together just fine, the legs were flexible and sturdy. I used it quite a bit more than expected on my trip, and got some great shots. But unfortunately, the phone mount clip broke during my return travel – rendering this tripod useless for me. I’m not quite sure how the clip broke tbh, it was probably the way i packed it more than a shoddy product. It didn’t feel cheap during the 30+ times i used it during the trip.Anyway, instead of throwing away the whole thing, i tried contacting the manufacturer. Explained the issue to them, and politely asked if they could send me a replacement clip. They had someone named Betty reach out to me, and send me a replacement clip within a couple of days. No charge, not even for shipping. Amazing customer service.I’m now using the tripod during workouts to either watch instructions or video my form during lifts. it’s working great and I can’t wait to take it to my next trip !

Great for trail shots when no one to take pics
I use this with my iPhone and Apple Watch instead of the remote, but I love it! Super easy to use, although if it’s a windy day, you will be challenged to keep it steady because it’s lightweight (but this is why I love taking it on the trail…no extra heavy weight).

I was hoping for something more easy to manage but the leg things are rigid and …
(2 WEEKS LATER)First of all, the seller was incredibly helpful regarding my troubles with the product. Even though it wasn’t anything they had done wrong or anything wrong with the product. I really appreciate all the help and they reaching out to me. A+ for the seller!Now, concerning the product, I have to say its a lot easier to handle than I thought based on a first look. Honestly the only thing I can still complain about is that switching the adapters is a bit tedious but the sturdiness of the legs is NECESSARY when wrapping it and when standing. Its really pretty cool and not as hard to manage as I thought when I first got it. I’ve been using it A LOT and it’s really made recording SO MUCH easier. Pretty good deal for this product.(FIRST REVIEW) I feel its too big and not that practical. I was hoping for something more easy to manage but the leg things are rigid and big, this is not ideal for “on the go” kind of gadget. Its more like taking 10 minutes to set everything up and be able to use it. I would return if I could honestly.The product itself isn’t bad, its just not what I thought it would be and its not what I was looking for. If you’re ok with having to take a lot of time to set up or if you plan to leave it set up somewhere then I think its good.

Doesn’t hold my phone up properly
Honestly, after looking at the reviews and finding they were mostly good, I was hoping this was going to be worth getting. But I guess this is what I get for getting something so cheap, haha! It doesn’t hold up my phone, no matter what I do; so I can’t record without holding it up myself in some way. I don’t recommend—please invest in something better!

I love this little guy
This is my new travel companion and is always with me anytime I go do anything outdoors. You never know when you’re going to need a tripod. I ordered one for my fiancé too. After over a year of owning this tripod and the spring mechanism still works absolutely fine.The only complaint that I have is that the plastic around the hinges has broken off. It’s designed to be the stopper on the legs. To keep them from bending too far. So very quickly they became stress fractured then quickly just broke off. However that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Doesn’t particularly affect the functionality of the tripod. Still works great!

Super customer service
I’ve had this tripod for 2 years and lost the little nut that attaches the bolt to keep the cell phone attachment secure. I contacted Ubeezize about this and they responded immediately and more than took care of me! Thanks UBeesize!

Good basic phone tripod—portable, lightweight, affordable
I ordered this in 2020 and the neck where it connects the phone mount to the legs finally snapped the other day. For its cost alone for how long it lasted me and it’s portability (it is light, it fit in my purse/carry-on luggage when I was traveling, and it balances my iPhone XR just okay), I recommend this tripod! It absolutely hit everything I needed at the time. However, it’s hard to scale up when you need additional gear (no place to put a light or a microphone or a better phone mount). I also don’t recommend this for large phones and tablets and cameras larger/heavier than a GoPro. My phone was an iPhone XR with a case on it and it fit the phone mount securely and stabilized just okay. But it doesn’t balance well and often will fall over when I’m on FaceTime or taking a video at a weird angle—I could not even imagine attempting an angle over the table to video anything. Luckily my phone never fell on concrete so it never damaged my phone, but you get what you pay for with this tripod.And I almost forgot the remote control, it could not pair with my phone at all so I never used it.
