Review on πŸ“· Sabrent TP-FLTP-TBHD-VI Universal Flexible Tripod with Ball Head Bundle - Enhanced for Standard Tripod Mount by Dylan Goins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

11 inches tall, same functionality as Gorillapod

Gorillapod brand tripods have been on the market for many years. This is a slightly different take on the product space. The legs are flexible like the Gorillapod, but the bending mechanism is fully internal, making the tripod feel slimmer (but otherwise works the same as the Gorillapod). This one is about 11 inches tall (including the head). I think they can use the same technology to make them bigger or smaller if they want. The tripod works well as a regular table tripod, although a solid metal tripod works better. This product works best if you want to mount the camera on a railing, fence or branch, then you can wrap your legs around something and then use the remote control to take a selfie from a distance. The documentation says it will support a camera weighing up to 2.2 pounds, but they're probably exaggerating. It certainly works well with a GoPro, a smartphone, or a small point-and-shoot camera. It could work with a Β£1 camera if your shutter speed isn't too slow. The kit includes high-quality mounts for GoPro, smartphone and standard camera tripod connections. Overall quality is pretty good and I expect it to last for years unlike some really cheap plastic tripods that barely work.

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • May cause injury
