Fugetek 48" Selfie Stick & Tripod

For my purchase I was looking for a selfie stick/ tripod at a good price point that functioned excellently as a tripod and well enough as a selfie stick. The biggest drawback about this product is the phone holder that it comes with.you can only use it when you put your phone in horizontally, which I dint like and I clearly dint pay attention to the advertising. But the holder wasn’t permanently affixed to the tripod and came off with no great effort. So I attached a phone holder from a ring light that I have and have also attached light itself and the tripod handle both items brilliantly you mount have to adjust the screw every so often when the neck gets a little flex in it though. Another point to mention is that this item is a bit long and would easily fit in a backpack but not really in a smaller purse or handbag, which may be a big draw to some people. The remote also stays firmly in its socket and connected to my iPhone with no difficulty what so ever, it’s also very streamlined as a selfie stick but has a little weight to it and the tripod has not given me any issues as far as wobbling or falling in the dozen or so times that I have used it.

After trying so many selfie sticks, this one is the best that I could find. It offers a smart, clean design that lacks unnecessary parts. Not as sturdy as other Fugetek tripods, but noticeably sturdier than competing selfie sticks which typically have flimsy plastic legs and spring clamps that could easily drop your phone. Not perfect but almost there. I would make the feet spread wider for more stability. Plus I would make it shorter so that it collapses to 7 inches long, making it small enough to fit in a jeans front pocket without sticking out too much. Long range bluetooth remote is above average as well, having 3 buttons and an on/off switch. Plus it includes a spare battery in the battery compartment. The phone/camera holder can take a smartphone with a thick case, a GoPro-compatible action camera, and any device that fits on a 1/4” screw universal camera mount. All in all it deserves 5 out of 5 stars.

This Fugetek tripod/selfie stick has been a great tool for my business. I started doing make up a few months ago and needed a tripod to record tutorials and take pictures of my work, my husband also started using this tripod to record his tennis training sessions and some social media content. The remote control is a great feature that allows to take pictures at a distance without having to use the phone/camera's timer, before I used my apple watch to take the pictures or start recording but sometimes the picture would look weird when holding the apple watch in the picture. The best feature for me is the actual phone holder, I like the adjustment screw at the top which helps keep the phone secure to the tripod as compared to other spring loaded phone holders that I have used on other tripods before that are not as sturdy and secure. The telescopic extension arm is not very sturdy, when fully extended the tripod looses some stability and can shake a little if there is wind or the ground is not flat. The height adjustment is good enough for what we use it for. Overall this is a good tripod/selfie stick for its value, it is great for most uses. If you are looking for a tripod to use it in the fully extended position, you will be better off looking for a proper tripod that is more sturdy and stable and can hold bigger cameras as well.

I really like this selfie stick. It is light weight, small in size yet sturdy enough and very easy to use. The remote works well, too. Basically all the functions I can think of for a selfie stick this item has it.

I had bought this product a few years ago, and it worked quite well for me. Unfortunately, I lost it and bought it again. This time, the stability wasn't the same. It doesn't hold up very well when you fully open it. It could be due to the weight of the phone, but even with another phone, it's not as stable. The support is still good.

Well made each section when extended holds the phone securely and doesn't move left or right when taking a selfie Only issue I have is the phone cradle (what holds the phone) is not spring loaded so it has to be screwed out. This takes a bit of time BUT when the thumb screw is tightened down it will hold the phone securely unlike a spring loaded cradle and I really like that!! Remote comes with a spare battery also!! When collapsed to store mode it's not real small but can be put into a purse or small pack.

Did a lot of research to find this product. Compact selfie stick (9 inch long collapsed) with a remote on the handle (vs on the mounting head) and a 1/4" screw mount. I was hoping to use it with a magsafe disk to attach an iPhone but there isn't enough range of motion with the mount to work correctly. Fortunately it came with a screw on phone mount that is easier to use then the spring type mounts where I end up pressing one of the side buttons when trying to mount the phone. Stick is sturdy and capable of extending to a good length. Like the fact that the detachable remote uses a replaceable battery and has storage for a spare. I've found that rechargeable remotes typically don't last long. I've used probably 4-5 different selfie sticks in the past and hope this one works better than the others. UPDATE I was able find a MagSafe mount from Amazon (BRDRC) that has a hinged arm that allows me to position my phone for selfies as well as regular photos. It also folds flat for storage.

I wanted something that can go a little longer to get more into frame when using as a selfie stick. The drawback is it collapses to 9 inches, longer than my other ones. Still fits in cargo pants pocket, or I just keep in a backpack. No sharp edges are nice. The remote worked great, quickly connected, takes photos and starts and stops videos. It can zoom but I never use that. I like how it snaps into the leg of the tripod. Fits a 6.8-inch phone. Feels a little unstable if using as a tripod at full length. Can hold a phone vertical to the side but you cannot run it full length while doing so in tripod mode. Overall, it’s solid, but you can tell it is budget grade. I use it now and then, not all the time.
