This phone tripod has 10,000+ purchases and is my must-have gadget

I bought a phone tripod a while back, and let's just say it wasn't exactly money well spent. Wobbly, frustratingly rigid and impossible to adjust, it has since spent most of its life collecting dust on a shelf. So when I decided to give the concept another shot, I was looking for something that could actually keep up.

Enter the Eucos 62-inch Phone Tripod and Selfie Stick , which quickly became one of my favorite little gadgets.

This handy gadget seamlessly doubles as both a sturdy tripod and an extendable selfie stick, features a fully adjustable phone holder and even includes a Bluetooth remote so you can snap photos without running back and forth on a timer. I've already put mine to the test at pumpkin patches and amusement parks—and it made such an impression that a content creator friend immediately asked me for the link.

Even better? Amazon Prime Members can grab this tripod now with a sweet 10% savings , but you'll want to make sure you're logged in to see the savings (not a Prime member?

Whether you're capturing family photos, filming social media content or just trying to get everyone in the picture for once, this is a must-have gadget —especially as we enter prime family picture-taking season.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"It's very nice! I had to buy this for my video class, and I like how adjustable it is. It fits my Samsung S25 Ultra. I was worried about whether my phone would be too big at first, but it held my phone and didn't lean or fall over!" — Amazon customer review
