Gnome Workshop GWSELFGOL Bluetooth Foldable Selfie Stick with Shutter Button, Gold

As soon as I open my package. I tried to turn on the selfie stick and it did not work, I thought "might not have battery". so I put it to charge for about and 1-2 hours. when I tried to use it again, NOTHING ! I had my Bluetooth on and open, I was pressing the button and no light came on nor did it show up on my Bluetooth list. I would like to receive a replacement for this device. even though when I needed it I couldn't use it.

Was broken on arrival

This selfie stick is much better than the one I have been using. It's made from better materials for one thing. The other one I was using had a cheap plastic holder for the phone that I was worried would break easily. This one is much sturdier and seems like it could withstand an accidental drop or two. (I have neurological issues and drop things a lot) I also like that the rod is metal and not just plastic. It is very easy to expand and hooks up with no issues to my bluetooth phone. The button is easy to reach, and push, so taking pictures is quite easy. I am not a selfie type person normally, however I do like taking group photos. I always hated that one person would end up left out of the photos so they could take the pic and using a tripod or other device always left people "cut out" of the picture or the timer would go off before everyone was in place. With this selfie stick you can get everybody in the shot and wait til they are all ready before you take the pic. I also do a lot of reviews, and I take a lot of pictures for them. This has really come in handy when I am trying to get the pics I need. It's especially helpful when I'm doing beauty product reviews or clothing reviews. I can get "back of the head" pictures if I've used a styling tool and I can get "full body shots" for clothing reviews. Sometimes I will try out a new outfit and use this to get a pic so I can see how it really looks. I don't have a full length mirror so this works great. It's also good for getting different angles with your pics because you can swivel the top around with your phone attached. I don't really have any cons with this product. It's made well, works easily and folds up to a small enough size that it fits in my purse. They seem to have thought of everything when they designed this.I received this Gnome Workshop Bluetooth Foldable Selfie Stick for free or at a discount in exchange for my honest review.

This selfie stick works very similarly to others I've tested. The tension in the camera clamp is perfect. It's not too tight so it opens easily. But it's tight enough to secure your phone safely. The selfie stick's extendable arm extends easily enough but does require some force. The Bluetooth pairs easily on my iPhone 5s, iPod 5th gen, and daughter's Android phone.PROS:Red indicator light to let you know it's chargingBluetooth (NO EXTRA CORDS!)Easy to pairEasy to take photosFits with phone case onCharges fastLong battery lifeUniversal, fits many devicesCONS:Plastic frame around the charging hole is a little looseIt takes effort to fully extend or compressRatings (Out of five stars):Photo taking ease: *5*Device pairing ease: *5*Battery Life: *5*Length: *5*Device Versatility: *5*Overall rating: 25 out of 25 stars / 5 Star AverageI hope you enjoyed this review.

I love this selfie stick because there are no confusing wires to deal with. It is very easy to use and figure out and most importantly, it is well made and well priced. I come from a family who love taking group photos and "selfies". With this selfie stick, no one gets left out from pictures to "play photographer". Everybody can finally be in the photo! I also love using it when traveling. I love keeping a private documentation of the places me and my husband visited so needless to say, this nifty gadget comes in handy and is very much needed when we're traveling!As a blogger, I am often provided Press Sample kits by companies for review purposes.
