Review on 🀳 Bower Multipod: The Ultimate 6-in-1 Tripod Selfie Stick for Smartphones with Remote Shutter Control by Sonny Nevers

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor design - photo and video accessories

I don't have much experience with phone tripods, but on first impression (I haven't used it much) this product seems quite fragile and very hackable. The stick wobbles when fully extended. The legs of the tripod have no additional support (other than hinges, nothing holds the legs together). The tripod head has to be screwed on incredibly tight to hold the device in place. I believe this over-tightening is not good for the long-term health of the product. It will probably come to the point that the screw can no longer work as intended. Due to the construction of the tripod head, setting up the device is also difficult. It's also not mentioned in the instructions, but you'll find when you first take the product out of the box and try to use a tripod that you can't set it up properly because the base of the selfie stick is in the way is . You have to keep pulling the selfie stick with considerable force and it may seem like you might break something. Despite all these issues, however, it still fulfills what you would expect with the issues mentioned above. There are similar products at the same price but with better construction. All in all, I do not recommend this product.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
