I have analyzed four ‘selfie’ sticks with tripod for the phone and tell you my experience

The camera has become one of the key aspects that is most valued when choosing a new mobile phone. To get the best game and get more stable photos and videos, there is an affordable accessory, easy to use and, above all, very practical: the sticks selfie They also function as a tripod.

These devices stand out for their wide compatibility, since it is possible to use them practically with any smartphone. In addition, they are comfortable to carry thanks to their lightness and folding design, which allows to alternate between the mode of palo selfie and the tripod mode in just a few seconds. Another interesting advantage is that most include a small remote control by Bluetooth, which is linked to the phone. In this way, it is possible to take photos or record remote videos just by pressing a button, while the mobile remains fixed and ready to capture unforgettable moments.

Thus we have chosen and tested the products

The models that I have analyzed are available on Amazon and their price does not exceed 20 euros. I have tried each one over several days, not only with my personal phone, but also with that of my partner and a couple of friends, to check their compatibility and performance with different smartphones.

The aspects that I have valued in each analysis have been the following:

• Construction quality: the type of materials, the sensation to touch and durability they transmit.
• Design and management: I have proven if the mechanism to open and close is practical, if placing and removing the mobile is simple, and what margin offers to adjust the angle.
• Remote control: If bluetooth linking is fast and stable or if, on the contrary, it presents connection failures.
• Daily use: Do you comply with what they promise? Do they provide good stability when taking pictures or making videos?

Selfie stick in different colors: PNQ02MP-W pnitri

For who he is: Continue reading if what you are looking for is a stick selfie With tripod that incorporates double lighting!

Why have we chosen it: From the point of view of manufacturing quality, it is one of the models that I liked the most since it transmits solidity and good finish. Of course, I have also noticed that it tends to catch the dust easily, so it is convenient to pass a cloth from time to time to keep it clean. It has, on the other hand, the incentive of extending its seven telescopic sections until reaching 114 cm, a length that exceeds most of its competitors. However, this extension implies that lateral flexion is evident: it happens in cobbled soils because on stable and smooth surfaces firmness is more than enough.

The other claim is that it comes with two LED lights that provide three shades – calaid, neutral and cold – to adjust the lighting according to the environment and the type of photo or video that we are going to do. This extra mark the difference when you record at night, you make video calls or look for a more flattering effect on the selfies. The control to change between the modes is simple, and although it does not replace a professional light ring, it fulfills its function if you want to improve the appearance of the image without loading with more accessories.

With a remote control that usually meets its mission, mobile support, 360 ° and tilting 180 °, adapts without problems with most situations.

Your weak points: The modules that add complementary LED lighting feed on a battery that must be recharged and its autonomy falls short. I would have preferred a battery system.

270º inclinable support: Anxre Anxst01

Who is it for: It goes to users looking for a stick selfie with tripode but without filling light.

Why have we chosen it: What has surprised me most is its telescopic design: it has six sections that allow it to extend it up to 106 cm, thus offering an excellent range to capture selfies group, broader landscapes or record videos with greater perspective. At the same time, it folds until it stays at just 19.5 cm.

During the evidence I have valued the freedom that its support provides, capable of turning 360 ° in horizontal and 270 ° in vertical. Thanks to this versatility, it has been easier for me to place the camera right at the angle I wanted, without having to move the tripod all the time. I have only had to bow it a little or turn it gently to go from recording in front of recording from above, or recording a video to take a photo vertically, almost without complications.

Tripod legs have a good diameter and non -slip rubber tips that reinforce their stability. For its part, the Bluetooth remote control has also convinced me: it is easily extracted from the handle, it is matched in seconds and has a reach of up to 10 meters. In the tests that I performed the signal did not fail even once, something that does not always happen in models of this range.

Your weak points: It may be difficult to place very large mobiles, since the anchor is too tight.

Selfie stick with 6 color temperature options: Qirita C01S

Who is it for: to especially consider if you plan to record or take pictures of both day and in low light conditions

Why have we chosen it: Of this model there are two versions: one ‘normal’ and another that incorporates a LED filling light, which is the one I have been able to prove. This light comes in a removable module and offers six brightness levels distributed in three different tones (warm, white and natural), rechargeable by USB. In my tests, especially recording at night, I was struck how it helped to soften shadows and better define faces without the image lost too much naturalness.

Like the rest, it feels light and folded occupies little space. Meanwhile, its telescopic design includes seven sections that allow it to extend it up to approximately 107 cm: this case, I gave up on the attempt to place it on a surface that was slightly regular, because even being smooth I had some other problem for the tripod to stabilize.

As for its design, at first glance it transmits solidity: aluminum body, well -assembled ABS plastic details and literally padded coating in the area where you place the mobile phone.

Your weak points: The handle grip is the least comfortable of all and I have had the occasional difficulty when fitting and turning the mobile phone and the head of the stick support selfie which allows inclination of about 225 °. The inclination rotation is not perfectly soft and may require readjustment after several angles in a row.

With extra light: Kzomkzoo C01

Who is it for: It is an interesting alternative if you prioritize functionality against the quality of finishes, since it together offers satisfactory experience.

Why have we chosen it: An outstanding feature is that it includes a LED or ‘Fill Light’ light. Specifically, it is possible to choose between three tones of light (warm, natural and white) that in low lighting conditions take us out of hurry.

As it happened to me with the rest, from the first moment I was struck by its slender profile and the touch of the mango, which allows you to firmly hold it. For its part, the mobile phone clip – a key in experience – meets its support function.

The Bluetooth remote control is integrated into the mango itself and works as a multifunction button that is difficult to lose, since it is fixed by a magnet. You just have to extract it slightly to shoot the camera at a distance. In my outdoor tests, the real reach was around ten meters without cuts in the signal except a couple of times, more than enough to do selfies group or record only from different positions. As planned, the tripod unfolds without difficulties. On smooth surfaces I had no problem, but, for example, about somewhat irregular tiles it was enough for someone to touch it so that one of the legs lost firmness and the whole staggers.

Your weak points: The detail of some finishes is improved. Also, if your mobile has a certain gross and you carry a bulky case, it is preferable to remove it. When the stick extends completely, the clamp that holds the mobile tends to open slightly, which causes the phone to move a little and the image trembles when moving the stick.
