I received the selfie stick last year from the Halloween contest. At first I didn’t think I would ever use a selfie stick, but I guess times have changed as ocassionally we do use it.
The packaging is similar to most Anker products, in that you get a white and blue box, inside is the standard happy/unhappy card and welcome guide/manual.
For those who never used a selfie stick, this one is simple in that there is a headphone style plug that you plug into your headphone port …sorry folks if you don’t have a headphone jack you have to use a adapter or look for a bluetooth selfie stick.
The stick has 5 extendable sections that allow you to extend up to 27.5 inches. It has an expandable section where you put your phone and then plug the cable in. On the handle is a blue clear button that once your phone is plugged in and hooked up, open tha camera app and when your ready press the button. On my Android phone it processed right away, on the iPhone there was a bit of delay…at first the volume went up and then the picture was taken. On the iPhone it has done that everytime, unplugging and plugging it back in did the same thing with the volume up and then picture was taken, not sure why but it didn’t matter to me. Pictures taken came out great and it works as it should.
