UGREEN Bluetooth Selfie Stick Tripod with Remote (15062)

Overview

The UGREEN 15062 is a selfie stick, monopod and tripod in one for photos and video on a phone, fired by a detachable Bluetooth remote. It extends to about 150 cm, folds to about 32 cm for travel, and the clamp rotates through 360° for portrait or landscape. It suits phones 5.8 to 8.2 cm wide with the case on.

Is it right for you?

• Suits phones whose installed width, including the case, is within the 5.8 to 8.2 cm clamp range, which covers many 4.7 to 6.1 inch phones. Check the clamp width and button placement rather than screen size alone.
• Suits iOS and Android phones whose camera app responds to a Bluetooth shutter or volume-control command.
• Suits compact action cameras or accessories only when they fit the supplied mounting adapter and stay stable.
• Not a load-bearing support for DSLR, mirrorless or other heavy cameras.
• Bulky cases, wallet cases, grips and lens attachments can shift the balance or exceed the clamp range.

Key features

• Three modes: handheld selfie stick, extended monopod and folding-base tripod.
• Extends to about 150 cm; folds to about 32 cm.
• Phone clamp rotates 360°, with a head angle range of 0° to 203°.
• Detachable Bluetooth 5.0 shutter remote with a control distance of up to 10 m in suitable conditions, powered by a 120 mAh CR1632 coin cell.
• Aluminium construction.

What else you need

A phone within the clamp range whose camera app accepts the Bluetooth shutter command. A replacement CR1632 coin cell when the remote battery runs down.

Installation

Clamp the phone, extend the pole and open the legs for tripod use. Pair the remote in the phone’s Bluetooth settings and open the camera app. Inspect the clamp pads, leg hinges, telescoping locks and mount before each use.

Before you buy

• A fully extended lightweight tripod can tip suddenly. Wind, a bumped leg or an off-centre device reduces stability, and it does not guarantee stability on uneven ground.
• Keep the mounted phone away from ledges, roads, crowds, pools and anywhere a fall could injure someone or damage property, and keep it supervised.
• Coin cells can cause severe injury if swallowed. Keep the CR1632 and the remote’s battery compartment away from children and seek urgent medical help if ingestion is suspected.
• Bluetooth range and app response vary, and not every camera app starts video from the remote. Confirm the phone saved the image before ending an important session.
• Do not use during thunderstorms, on conductive structures or where the mechanism or electronics get wet. It has no weatherproofing or outdoor anchoring.
• It does not charge the phone or the remote battery.
• Phone, action camera and storage bag are not included.
