I love this thing I bought two of them.. I used it to videotape myself reading my grandson books every day after he moved. I thought the quality, the height, the versatility, sturdiness etc., were great. It held my phone perfectly in place.. I did not use the Bluetooth connectivity or the picture quality feature because I didn’t need to, but I thought this was a great buy for the price. I love it..

I bought this as a convenient way to position my iPhone when shooting cute little videos for my friends and family. Set it on a desktop, tabletop, dresser, or any flat surface, and it serves that purpose perfectly. Combining that with the fact it is the most economically priced unit of its kind and what else is there to say? Unless you NEED something fancier or bigger (if you don't that you do, you don't) buy it.When I make a purchase on Amazon, I always check the lowest reviews first. If 75% of people give it five stars and 1% gives it one star, I read the one star reviews first.Many of the low reviews I saw on this product bemoaned the fact that it doesn't come with assembly instructions.People, there are FOUR pieces.So allow me to offer a quick tutorial since it does not in fact come with assembly instructions in much the same way chewing gum doesn't come with an insert that says, "1. Remove wrapper 2. Chew gum."The first part is the tripod, it is the largest part, it has legs. You want the legs to point down. At the non-leg end is the mounting platform. It is flat, platform shaped, and has a small threaded bolt sticking up from the center of it, hinting that in the near future you will be screwing something on to it. On the side of the unit is a big, friendly, easy-to-turn knob. Loosen it (turn to the left) and the mounting platform moves in many exciting directions. Tighten it (turn to the right) and platform is locked in place. Experiment, until you find the direction that works for you.The next part is the remote control. It looks like a remote control with buttons and everything. It is for controlling things, remotely. Set it aside for now.The next part is a mounting bracket for a GoPro style camera. If you've never seen one, this might be confusing (and you probably don't need it.) A simple rule of thumb, "Is there any conceivable way this attaches to my phone?" If the answer is no, set it aside. For the curious, it has a base with a threaded hole in it, and three black plastic tabs, evenly spaced, with a single long screw running through the center of all three. The case for your GoPro style camera will have TWO tabs on the bottom, usually clear, and these are meant to interlock with the plastic tabs on the base, at which point the long screw is inserted through ALL the tabs and tightened down (remember, to the right) to hold your camera firmly in place.The final piece is the spring-loaded camera bracket. Find the threaded hole in the base of it. Screw it on to the threaded bolt sticking up from the top of your tripod mounting platform until it is snug (righty-tighty.) Congratulations, your tripod is assembled.The bracket has two "jaws" that fold down flat for easy storage. Flip them into the "ready for grabbin" position, so that they are at a 90 degree angle (or perpendicular as I like to say) to the piece you just flipped them up from. If you apply pressure to these "jaws" as though you were trying to move them away from each other, you will find that the unit is spring loaded, the jaws move apart, wide enough to accommodate vary sizes of phone. Stick your phone in there. Well done.There ARE instructions included for pairing the remote to your phone. This is very handy as it allows you to remotely activate either the video or photo function on your phone.Personally, I assume my instructions are unnecessary. I believe that you, dear potential purchaser, can (as I did) look at it for 10 seconds and figure it out. If not, I hope my instructions prove useful. If not, there is a clearly visible tab on your "order page" for the product labeled "GET CUSTOMER SUPPORT." They have a support button for a product that any 8 year old who hasn't been eating paint chips for a few years could assemble.So really, dinging a product like this for "not including instructions" is just...well, I probably can't use the word I'd like to so let's just say it's unnecessary and more than a little petty.And if you ARE one of those people who felt you needed to lower your rating because it didn't come with an 8.5x11 glossy manual with supplemental color photos and a support animal please remember, take the wrapper off FIRST, THEN chew the gum, not the other way around.For everyone else, it doesn't cost much, it works just fine, it's probably EXACTLY what you're looking for. I'm certainly satisfied with it.Thank you, and good night.

I just got this delivered a few minutes ago & can confirm that both the Bluetooth remote & spring-loaded jaws work perfectly with the P8P & a thick Caseborne case. It's not wide enough for the long side but it might work for smaller tablets & I expect it to with the P9P-XL with OtterBox or something.Also confirm that all directions are available with this design including straight up & down (that is, phone held horizontal for vertical shots) & everything between landscape & portrait. There's a mount on the back of the jaw I'm assuming is for their tiny fill light etc. I don't have a GoPro so can't comment on that mount.Will take pics later after I figure out how with the phone mounted lol! No gripe so far!

I took a chance on this and am very happy with both the tripod and the remote. It attached to my pixel 7 phone and worked on the first try. This will be great for taking group pictures.

Simple pocket size tripod/gripper - works perfectly.

I swear that I received a previously opened item.The remote was unwrapped and it's battery saver tab was missing, and the box has a general worn look about it. Sort of a crushed appearance.Not exactly a deal breaker but it should not be a surprise.

I have about fifteen small tripods, some of which I have whined about, but these are my favorites. i've bought five variations of the Ubeesize soft-flexibles, with no complaints about anything. They are light, strong, easy to manipulate, comfortable, and surprisingly versatile.Not for heavy cameras...

Just in time for a group photo at the Holidays. I read directions and paired with iPhone for the remote. I propped the tripod with my smart phone up on a kitchen appliance to get a wide angle of all of us. I stood in , clicked my remote then viewed in my photos! I was so excited all worked great . The lighting was good for a house photo and the ease of the remote connecting to my iPhone 11 was perfect!!
