JOILCAN Phone Tripod Stand, 68" Tripod for iPad iPhone Tablet with Remote

I'm so happy I happened upon this tripod. I wanted one that's lightweight, compact and inexpensive - is that so much to ask for? I found all three in this product. I will be using this for audio field recording to capture ambient nature sounds in the woods, bird calls, etc. I have a very compact and lightweight setup so that I can hike and carry everything I need in one small pack. This JUST fits the minimum folded size I would need. As you can see from my pic it attaches nicely to the outside of my small gear bag. The bag itself is about 12" long and the tripod folds to about 15" long, so it overlaps a little, but it works. I should note that's without the adjustable head attachment. I plan to use this with a small stereo mic bar (which screws directly onto the bare tripod) and two very small microphones, so I'll be using it without any of the attachments. And because of my lightweight gear, I don't need this to support much weight. Things I like: 1. Incredibly lightweight, given how high it expands. I can lift the entire thing, opened or closed, with my pinky finger. 2. Flip Locks make it very easy to adjust, it only takes a few seconds to expand it. I like these much better than twist locks. 3. Multiple Positions - This can go from about 14" to 65" inches when open, which I find incredibly impressive given how light and compact it is when folded. It can work on a tabletop, it can be taller I am, and everything in between. Note: The reference to it being 68" is with the attachments. The max for the unit alone with no attachments is 65" (that's with the small center bar extended). 4. Slim Design: I love the slim design, so it's not only light but it's not bulky like some tripods are. I'm thrilled that I can strap this onto my small gear bag and it doesn't get in the way at all. 5. Fun extras: It has the standard head of course, which has basic tilt and rotate abilities, it also comes with a cell phone holder, an extra quick-release attachment, and a cool little Bluetooth remote control. I didn't buy it for that but tested it out and it easily paired with my android phone, which is a cool bonus. Downsides: 1. Not Heavy Duty - The only real downside I can see is that if you're looking for something you can beat on, put heavy equipment on, etc., this is probably not ideal. The tradeoff for such a slim and light design is that it's not going to be as durable and sturdy. If you need heavy duty and light, you might look at carbon fiber models, but for this price range, you'd have to get something thicker and heavier for it to be heavy duty. That's not to say this won't hold up, so far it seems fine, it's just clearly not meant for heavy equipment or rough treatment. It even comes in a nice-looking manufacturer box and has a drawstring carry bag so it would make an excellent gift. The price point on this cannot be beat for the value you get. Oh, one little word of caution: Be careful unboxing it, the tilt handle is loose and has a tiny washer that I immediately dropped on the floor and then spent 10 minutes crawling around trying to find.

The setup is incredibly easy and straightforward, and I was able to get it up and running within minutes. The 68-inch height is fantastic—it allows me to get great angles for vlogging and video recording without feeling like I’m limited to just one position. The tripod is made of sturdy aluminum, which makes it lightweight enough to carry around but still durable enough to hold my devices securely. I especially love that it comes with a remote, which makes it so convenient to take photos or start/stop videos without having to touch my device. The universal holder works perfectly with my iPhone and iPad Pro, and it’s very secure. I’ve used it for several shoots, and the tripod has held up well with no wobbling or shaking, even when I’m adjusting the angle. One of the best features is the carry bag—it’s great for keeping everything organized and protected when I’m on the go. Whether I’m traveling, shooting at home, or recording on location, this tripod has been an amazing addition to my gear. Overall, I highly recommend the JOILCAN Phone Tripod Stand to anyone in need of a reliable, versatile tripod. It’s perfect for video recording, photos, and vlogging, and the quality is unbeatable for the price!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent All-in-One Tripod for Phones, Tablets, and Cameras – Sturdy, Tall, and Travel-Ready The JOILCAN 68" Phone Tripod Stand really impressed me with its build quality, versatility, and ease of use. It’s made from lightweight aluminum, so it’s easy to carry but still feels solid and stable—even at full height. I’ve used it with my iPhone, iPad Pro, and a small digital camera, and everything mounts securely using the universal holder. The tripod adjusts smoothly and locks firmly into place, which is great whether you're filming indoors or outside. The included Bluetooth remote pairs quickly and works flawlessly for taking pictures or starting video recordings from a distance—super handy for solo creators. The carry bag makes it even more convenient for travel or storage, and I love that it folds down compactly. Whether you're a content creator, vlogger, or just want to take better family photos and videos, this tripod gives you everything you need in one affordable package. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a reliable and flexible setup!

Picked this tripod up and it’s been doing exactly what I need it to do. It sets up easily, holds the phone steady, and adjusts without a bunch of hassle. Nothing complicated—just works when I need it. Build feels decent for the price, and it’s been reliable so far. Overall, no complaints. Does the job and gets out of the way.

This has been a game changer!!!

I'm giving you my honest review about this product. I had no clue what I was getting into when I purchased this tripod just needed something quick and affordable. But once it arrived? Game. Changer. The quality blew me away for the price sturdy, lightweight, and easy to set up. I was so impressed, I ended up buying three more. Yep, it was that good. I brought these tripods on a cruise, and let me tell you... I looked like a professional photographer on vacation. People were stopping to ask what gear I was using I felt like I should’ve handed out business cards 😂. It held my phone and tablet securely, handled windy decks like a champ, and gave me the perfect height and angle every time. This isn’t just a tripod it’s a confidence boost with legs. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Don’t sleep on this one. Joilcan came to slay

Overall it’s a decent tripod. It’s a bit flimsy but it does the job as long as you do not jostle it around. It’s very portable and easy to set up. Stability is ok. Only problem I have with it is that when you rotate it to follow any action or motion the “holder” becomes loose and affects the video quality. Remote control use was not attempted. Mounting my IPad was easy and quick using a “screw pad” to hold it in place. Does its job. Overall it’s a decent tripod.

My son is thrilled with this because his recording videos for his YouTube channel and work amazing with his iPad.

This tripod is sturdy enough and does the job for my self-tapes with my phone. As others have mentioned, you need to be careful with it because it's made a bit flimsy. As long as you are gentle, I think it will last a long time. I just wish the phone holder was a twist for tightening instead of a stretch clamp. I feel like that may break sooner. Overall happy with it, and it's price.

No phone holder this is cheating

I love love this tripod stand , really good quality, strong and durable

This thing's just handy. You can mount all kinds of stuff to it. GoPro, phone, laser level, whatever.

I got this tripod to use on digital camera to take pictures of hobby kits in a light box. Also to mount a pair of 15 by 70 binoculars. Tripod is mostly plastic so not recommended for heavy telescopes. Works well for my intended uses. Would recommend it for these types of use. Also it is light weight so taking it on a hiking trip is fine. Folds up into a small light package. I would buy it again.
