The media could not be loaded. After being frustrated with wobbly selfie sticks that claim to be tripods, I found this Ulanzi TT51. It's only slightly larger than a typical large-size selfie stick that dual purpose as a tripod, but the long legs design makes it a lot more stable. See my video that show the Sensyne selfie stick wobbles for several seconds, compare to only a second for the Ulanzi. I also added size comparison pictures as well, both when they're extended and folded. Note that I didn't extend the Sensyne to its full length because I wanted the wobble test to be at the same height.I do have bigger and steadier tripods for my DSLRs, but they're not practical to carry around on travels and hikes. I think the size of the Ulanzi is a perfect compromise. I also use it as a selfie stick, but it's a bit heavy for that purpose (1.3lbs vs 0.9lbs for the Sensyne). It also doesn't come with a a remote, so I would use timer or palm gesture instead.Being a serious landscape photographer, I love the ball head, which most selfie sticks won't have. The folded phone clamp is genius as everybody said.

I recently purchased tripod, and I couldn’t be happier! The quality is truly impressive—it's strong, reliable, and very well made. We used it in our office meeting room with a Logitech video camera, and it worked perfectly. The 360° rotatable ball head is a fantastic feature that adds versatility. Highly recommend this tripod for anyone in need of a dependable stand!

Did everything I needed it to while traveling. Like the title says, intuitive setup and lightweight. I was careful to not yank or push the telescoping legs and whatnot in any sort of rough way, because I didn’t want to test how much rough handling it can take, but under normal usage, I had no problems and it still works perfectly.

I'm super happy that finally found this tripod for my camera/phone needs. It's only 2 times more expensive then the cheapest tripods on the market, but this one is so high-quality piece, where I get all the needed features. This tripod was developed with minds about who will use it. Quite lightweight.Strongly recommend this tripod and very happy that I'm finally find it.

This is an entry-level compact tripod designed for phones. It can also be used for small point and shoot cameras, but probably not for a larger DSLR or mirrorless.The included ball head is very basic, but I think is good enough for using with a phone. What's interesting is that the ball head can be replaced, as long as the base has a 1/4" female thread. The center column can be extended but can be finicky to raise once the rubber collar is loosened.Although this tripod is made out of aluminum, it is lightweight and might not be appropriate in windy conditions. However, if using in a controlled environment, I think this can be a convenient way to mount a phone without spending too much.
