JobyGripTight PRO Video GorillaPod Stand: Pan & Tilt Video Tripod Head and GorillaPod for Smartphones from iPhone SE to iPhone 8 Plus, Google Pixel, Samsung Galaxy S8 and More

What were they thinking when they attached a metal handle into a thin piece of plastic with a screw? I really wanted to love this product because it looked like it would be great for panorama shots. But I got it out of the package and went to sweep back and forth with the handle and it broke right where the handle connects. The handle is metal and feels sturdy, but it screws into a thin piece of plastic. Broke on my very first use. Not happy.I added photos so you can see exactly the area that broke.

I have used the gorilla pro griptight tripod with the panning head for 1 1/2 months. Daily as a vlogger. Its worked perfectly. However a week ago a screw and spring in the handle came loose and disappeared in the woods when I was filming. I contacted joby and they sent me replacement immediately! No charge just excellent service.

Overall, a solid product. The legs feel sturdy and durable, and there is a fair amount of weight to the tripod. I’ve heard complaints about the pan/tilt handle having a flimsy attachment that breaks easily, but I don’t detect any flimsiness with my one, so it’s possible that they improved that feature on more recent models. It fits my iPhone 8 Plus with room to spare, so slightly larger Android phones should also work in the mount (tablets are out of the question though). The legs are excellent at gripping around objects if you don’t have a flat surface, so it does the job in that department.The biggest downside is that there is no stabiliser to keep your camera level with the ground, so if you don’t want your shot to be at a Dutch angle, you have to fiddle around a lot with the legs until your phone is at 180 degrees. A standard tripod with straight/rigid legs obviously wouldn’t have this issue, so its a trade-off for the versatility of the GorillaPod.

I had a previous Joby Gorillapod and the legs, like most Jobys, started to wear out and my stand would topple over. I needed a new one and thought this one fit my needs. The legs feel more durable than the smaller stand I had and so far it's working as advertised.

Sturdy & strong, but still flexible legs to wrap around objects for the tough shot. Takes potrait & landscape pictures easily, secure tightening grips to hold your Cellphone. I like the stem handle and do not see an issue with it being weak at all, what are these guys doing, throwing it across the room?. Spin off the Cellphone holder to attach your regular camera. Very nice product, I am happy with it.!

I have been using this for a while. It is strong and sturdy to support my plus-sized phone. Swivels nicely from side to side. Strong grip on the phone and any object you decide to wrap the flexible legs around.

Swivel stick was broken off in the packaging. So I ordered another one. It worked great for 3 days. As I was adjusting the swivel stick it broke off. I tried so hard to like this item but the quality is just so sad.

This tripod is very sturdy and has very grippe rubber also very smooth panning and swivel.. You can also lock the tilt into position. Perfect little tripod for my IPhone 8 Plus...

Von einer Marke wie Joby hätte ich mehr erwartet- für weniger Geld gibt es das gleiche. Der Schieber zum einsetzen des Smartphones wollte zuerst nicht aufgehen- er war total fest. Erst mit entsprechender Gewaltanwendung ging er auf- seitdem geht er leicht.Das handling verdirbt mir den Spaß an dem Gorillapod. Man muss das Smartphone perfekt in die horizontale bringen. Macht man das nicht, bewegt es sich von selbst um die eigene Achse, bis es von selbst zum Stillstand kommt. Diese Achse ist nicht arretierbar. Warum nicht? Dadurch ist er für mich nahezu nutzlos.

Leggero e di buona qualità costruttiva, abbastanza stabile grazie ai piedini di gomma e con le gambe snodabili consente di posizionarlo in varie location, la testata è fluida, l'iphone 7 plus entra perfettamente.
