Fotopro Bendable Mini Tripod with Action-Cam Adapter — Phone & Camera Stand
Product description
What you get: a compact flexible tripod with a phone holder and an action-camera adapter included, plus a 1/4"-20-compatible mounting interface so you can attach recorders or cameras that use the standard screw.
Build and materials: the legs are made from a robust internal core wrapped in high-density rubber, offering grip and resistance to wear. The shell is designed to be waterproof and rustproof so the legs won’t absorb water or corrode after use in damp conditions. The feet feature an anti-slip texture to help the tripod stay put on slick or angled surfaces.
Dimensions and load: the tripod measures about 28.5 cm when straight and weighs roughly 0.5 lbs (0.23 kg), making it easy to carry in a bag or even a large pocket. Despite the small size, it supports loads up to 2.65 lbs (1.2 kg), suitable for most smartphones, action cams, and small mirrorless or compact DSLRs.
How to use it: bend and wrap the legs around posts, railings, tree limbs, bike bars or angle them on flat surfaces to get steady shots. It supports portrait and landscape orientations for selfies, family photos and vlogging, and works well as a desktop webcam stand or handheld grip for casual shooting.
Portability: at under a quarter kilogram and roughly the length of a long pen, the tripod is intended for creators on the move who need a stable, adaptable mount without the bulk of a full-size tripod.
Pros
- Flexible legs wrap around many surfaces
- Waterproof, rust-resistant construction
- Lightweight yet supports up to 1.2 kg
Cons
- Not ideal for heavy professional cameras

VerdictA lightweight, versatile support for smartphones, action cameras and small DSLRs. Its rubber-coated, bendable legs let you secure it to uneven surfaces and grab creative angles. It’s waterproof and corrosion-resistant, light enough to carry daily, and holds up to 1.2 kg — a practical option for casual shooters and vloggers.

Handy little bendable tripod
Works well for my intended use: field audio recording. The flexible legs let me set it on uneven ground or wrap it around posts to create a steady base. The standard 1/4"-20 thread fits my recorder, and the kit also includes phone and action-cam fittings for other uses.

Disappointed — issues with tilt and rotation
I received the tripod and found the hinge very loose and the range of motion limited. The phone adapter can’t properly rotate to a horizontal position from the base, so when placed on a table the phone points upward toward the ceiling. Because of that alignment issue I’m returning it.
