There are thousands of Portable Tripod Selfie Sticks on the market. Have you ever had the experience of buying it but found it difficult to use it, or choosing a cheap product due to budget constraints but not as expected? In order to prevent this situation from happening again and again, the following will explain the specifications and key points that should be paid attention to when choosing.
Although most selfie sticks are general-purpose, there are still products that are specially used for iPhone or Android systems, so you must remember to confirm which system the selfie stick supports before purchasing, and choose the model according to the smartphone at hand. Choose, otherwise it will be very troublesome when you are excited to take it home but find that it is not available.
1. Confirm the system and mobile phone size supported by the product
In addition, pay attention to the size of the phone that the selfie stick phone clip can accommodate. Generally speaking, the phone clips on the selfie stick are universal and can accommodate smartphones within a certain size range, but if a thicker protective case or a notebook-type protective case is installed, the selfie stick clip is too shallow. It's easy to drop the phone because it can't be clamped, so if you want to reduce the hassle and don't want to remove the protective case every time you use the selfie stick, be sure to pay attention to the thickness of the clamp.
2. Select the type according to your needs
In order to facilitate the operation, the selfie stick is attached with buttons that can control the camera shutter or other functions, but they all need to be connected to a mobile phone to use. There are two types of connection methods: wired and wireless. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Next, we will introduce these two types separately. Please refer to them.
2.1 Wired selfie stick: connect to the headphone jack to use
For some people, the simpler the tool, the better, preferably just plugged in and ready to use. The wired selfie stick will have a line near the phone holder. Just insert it into the headphone jack of the smartphone to use the shutter on the selfie stick. It doesn’t need to be charged or set up, which is very convenient.
However, it should be noted that some mobile phones cannot use the headphone jack to operate the shutter, and recently, many mid-to-high-end models choose to abandon the design of the headphone jack in order to make the mobile phone thinner and lighter, so when purchasing, in addition to confirming whether your mobile phone has In addition to the headphone jack can be used, it is recommended to try it out to see if it is safer.
2.2 Bluetooth Selfie Stick: Wireless Connection, Diversified Types
Although the Bluetooth selfie stick using wireless connection requires manual pairing and connection at the beginning, some models even require some settings, so that the shutter and other control items can correspond to the buttons of the selfie stick, but as long as the connection is made once It will be automatically connected when you use it, and in addition to the buttons designed on the handle, some products will be independently made into a remote control, which is very convenient to control, and you don’t have to hold the selfie stick in your hand all the time, and the composition is very flexible.
However, because the bluetooth chip needs power supply, the bluetooth selfie stick needs to be charged before it can be used, and there is also a version problem, so before choosing, you must confirm whether the product is the same or similar to the bluetooth version of your mobile phone, or actually connect it to see. I won't be able to connect after buying it.
