" ... Be careful of metal objects because this will pick them up! ... "
" ... I bought the next size up that has a sturdier ball head that can be tightened. ... "
" ... Can set it up everywhere with flexible and magnetic legs. ... "
" ... this a nice durable long lasting tri pod ... the magnets are pretty strong and the bottoms will stick to almost anything ... "
" ... If you had four of them it'd be relatively easy to triple up the feet and lengthen the legs so it's easier to attach to things. ... "
" ... I love the fact that the bottom is magnetic. ... "
" ... I this this is great for the price, but the magnetic portions should be stronger to avoid dropped cameras, All-in-all I like it. ... locks in place ... magnets should be stronger to make sturdier. ... "
" ... Very strong little tripod. ... "

" ... I bought my third JOBY GorillaPod Magnetic Flexible Tripod last year, and it - just like all the others - has failed to be serviceable. ... However, I have owned and replaced several of these, and all of them have failed in the same manner: the joints of the legs quickly wear out in two ways: they simply wear down so there is no friction in the individual joints, and they develop micro (or macro) cracks which also make them floppy. ... And the 'tripod' simply doesn't work when the many-jointed legs are floppy and constantly falling out. ... "
" ... In short, the tripod legs will not stay in place . ... I guess, the ball joints wore of since the legs frequently fall apart. ... "
" ... The magnets are too weak to hold my phone on a vertical surface. ... "
" ... If you have a big, heavier phone it's simply not going to hold your phone up. ... "
" ... - neck joint wasn't strong enough to hold the iphone 7+ upright ... - the magnets on the ends are not strong enough to support the weight of the iphone 7+ ... "
" ... not strong enough to hold a phone ... "
" ... However, I was just bending with normal force and one of the legs broke off. ... "
" ... The magnets are useless and it dropped my phone from about 8 feet high and almost broke it to bits. ... "

" ... I / We love to take photos without the use of the selfie stick. ... "
" ... Works well with smaller cameras and GoPros ... "
" ... This with my study camera holder is great for when I'm on the go and need that slow shutter speed. ... "
" ... Really a great all around little tripod for my YI 2 4k Action cam. ... "
" ... Love how I can contort it in whatever way to accommodate the environment where I'm taking photos. ... "
" ... It works pretty good for a cell phone but it would be a stretch that it works for a camera. ... "
