So-so quality, price doesn't match quality.

If you find an analogue of this thing - I advise you to try to buy it. Bought Joby as a gift. It was extremely unpleasant after only six months to find out that he had broken down.

Pros
  • At the moment, Joby simply has no analogues. And it is impossible to adequately assess the merits without being able to buy a similar product from another company. But overall, it's a handy thing.
Cons
  • Broke after 6 months of light use. The cups that contain the balls of the legs burst. On ALL three legs. Once again - the use was not daily. When joby was used, it was simply put on a table with a camera. And that's all. These legs have not been twisted all day. They didn't stick anywhere. They just put it on the table. The legs themselves bend extremely tight, which, I think, was the reason for the burst plastic. But, buying the simplest thing in design for 3.5 thousand (on New Year's Eve) - you do not expect that it will break in six months.

I did not like it, I do not advise buying.

Disappointed with the quality for such a price, I expected more reliable performance With its pros. Allows you to take a photo from an unusual angle, optimal for a smartphone and a light Canon DSLR with fixes. Convenient ball head. Has cons: After 3 months use, the cup at the base burst, one leg now dangles easily.

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

My wife bought herself such a tripod on the advice of colleagues. The tripod is interesting and extremely convenient. Flexibility and changing the length of the legs allows you to both fix it on different hills (branch, lantern, etc.), and place it on uneven surfaces. The legs are strong enough - do not bend without some effort. The seller said that the maximum weight of the attached device is 1 kg. Further, the legs may begin to move apart. In general, the tripod is solid and "out of the box"…

Pros
  • Flexible and collapsible design, the ability to hook the tripod in hard-to-reach places, lightweight and compact
Cons
  • No phone holder included
