i love the quality of this stand and the price! i have honestly not use the remote feature hence the 3 star rating on that part, but, i have purchased 3 of these so far one in each of my cars and one at home, super cheap quick to setup my iphone 13 pro max holds the weight well even thru a windy day no toppling over easy to adjust screw on clamp, easy to install my gopro hero 11 has both attachments included for my gopro and phone, havent found anything else this cheap and good quality yet!

I’ve probably bought four tripods at three years and they always seem to break, whether it’s one of the legs or the phone holder loses a spring or what have you. But the sturdiness and compatibility of this one is absolutely amazing. It feels sturdy in her hands and not like a cheap piece of plastic. It’s so compact and it unfolds and extends higher than any tripod I found. It comes with a shutter remote and a go pro attachment. For 20 or so bucks, it’s definitely worth it.

Love that this stand is not flimsy and I can take this one outside and not worry about the wind. I purchase the separate light attachment. Price was reasonable

Great mobility device tripod hardware for visual resource interaction.

I love having this in my photography bag. I use this 9 out of 10 times as a sand or for selfies since no one ever wants to be the one taking pictures but always wants me taking pictures of them

This tripod was much sturdier than I expected and serves my purposes for filming short form video. I use a phone and do not own a GoPro but the attachment for GoPro is included. The Bluetooth remote is helpful and can be held in place on the tripod itself. The only thing I would like is for it to have a way to attach a light source to the tripod as well as a camera. If that were true, I would give the versatility 5 stars. As it is, I would have to buy a second tripod to attach a small LED light source. Which I might actually wind up doing.

I’ve had a few tripod stands before this one and they were flimsy and only held phone in one direction. This stand can hold the phone either way, is very sturdy, and doesn’t look or feel cheap. Very pleased with this purchase.

An awesome tripod and grip for smart phones, point n shoot and small DSLR cameras. Maybe a light Canon Ra mirrorless series with a small lens. As camera weight goes up usable extension goes down with less control and swaying. Here are some weight numbers to play with. I use an iPhone 14 Pro Max (240g) and a Canon G7 X (304g) at full extension. An older Canon Rebel SL1 DSLR with 24mm EF-5 lens (532g) with 4 and with a heavy 18-135mm EF-S lens (857g) 3 extensions. Go with a Zhiyun Smooth 5S Gimbal with iPhone 14 Pro Max (865g) for 3 extensions.

Outside with the full 62 inch extension in the wind smart phones and even GoPro cameras will move around some. Think about ropes to secure it if you need the height for a shot or lower the extensions for a more stable platform. Indoors with a robust tripod I have no fear putting the most expensive iPhone ever made on it.

As weight goes up the weakness is the 180 degree control head with a smooth locking surface. As tight as possible this can slip with heavier loads especially with a motorized gimbal moving around. The solution would be a control head with a geared locking surface and even better a metal version that would eliminate any slippage as well as no worries when adding accessories to the setup.

Maybe next year Eucos will come up with a 'Pro' version having an improved gear locking head for a little more cost. If not maybe they could provide a removal control head so we can replace it with a Manfroto version. They have already nailed so many issues we look for in a tripod as with strength and durability in such a small reasonably light package especially running around a mountaintop with a backpack of camera gear.

For now with light cameras this needs to be in your arsenal of tools making great videos when an expensive gimbal takes time to setup while this can do a lot of the same movements as you are the gimbal. It is so very well balanced forget all those other grip solutions for a smart phone or whatever you use. Go with the best tripod and grip at the moment then make great videos.

I love this tripod and recommend it to everyone!! It's super sturdy but also easily fits in my tote bag when I travel or go out to shoot content in public. I sent so many tripods back before I bought this one. It's the only tripod I use and need.

UPDATE <needs clarification="">: I had placed the original review at 4 stars, as it was not a material/craftsmanship problem, but rather a “my equilibrium” problem (actual medical problem exceeding “clumsy.” I’ve also accidentally been in drywall. No fault of the drywall
