📸 Phone Tripod with Bluetooth Remote (100cm, Model 3120)
I needed an affordable tripod for content creation, especially for TikTok and Reels, and this 3120 model popped up as a top-seller. The price was ridiculously cheap compared to similar US models (I paid under $10, vs $25–$35 on Amazon for basic tripods). It includes a Bluetooth remote, a carrying bag, and a standard phone holder.
What attracted me was the combo of Bluetooth functionality, portability, and solid height (100cm is decent for desk-level or standing shots). The listing promised lightweight aluminum construction and universal compatibility with iPhones and Androids, which checked all my boxes.
In use, I was surprised—it’s more stable than expected. The aluminum build feels light but not flimsy, and the legs lock tightly without wobbling. The phone holder is spring-loaded and wide enough to fit my iPhone 13 Pro Max with a case. The Bluetooth remote synced instantly and works up to 8–10 meters away. I filmed a makeup tutorial and a cooking video with zero shaking.
Pros:
-
Lightweight and easy to carry.
-
Bluetooth remote works reliably.
-
Adjustable height and tilt.
-
Very affordable.
Cons:
-
Max height might be too short for tall users.
-
The plastic components (especially at the head) feel delicate.
Compared to US brands like UBeesize or Amazon Basics, this tripod offers similar features for one-third the price. It met—and even exceeded—my expectations for a quick purchase.
US $7.93

🎥 Universal Video Tripod Stand (NA-3120, 40 inches)
This NA-3120 tripod caught my attention as a “travel tripod”—its compact size and featherweight design looked perfect for on-the-go filming and vlogging. I wanted something that wouldn’t weigh down my backpack but still provide stable shots for my hikes and city walks.
Delivery was under two weeks, which was faster than I expected for free AliExpress shipping. It arrived well-packaged in a carry bag and with a remote.
Functionally, this one is ideal for tabletop setups, quick shots, or time-lapses. It’s only 40 inches tall at full extension, but super light (barely over 300g). It’s not for heavy cameras, but works perfectly for smartphones and GoPros. I used it during a trip to Yosemite, and it didn’t disappoint.
Pros:
-
Extremely light and portable.
-
Quick setup and pack-up.
-
Remote pairs effortlessly.
Cons:
-
Limited height.
-
Can get shaky in wind—use indoors or with added weight.
At around $7, this thing is a steal. A comparable mini tripod in the US is easily $20+. I didn’t expect much, but it delivered decent value.
US $13.54

📱 Phone Tripod with Bluetooth (NA-3110, 102cm)
I bought this NA-3110 tripod for longer indoor shoots, particularly for workout videos and tutorial-style content. The 102cm height was the main selling point—it offers more flexibility than smaller tripods without costing more than $10.
First impression: surprisingly sturdy. The aluminum legs feel robust, and the locks stay in place when extended. It holds my phone stable in portrait or landscape mode, and the ball head allows for smooth rotation.
Setup is intuitive, and it folds down easily for storage. The Bluetooth remote is detachable and charges quickly (USB cable included). I’ve already used it for three filming sessions—setup time is under 2 minutes.
Pros:
-
Impressive height.
-
Solid build.
-
Remote battery lasts long.
Cons:
-
Phone mount feels a bit rigid.
-
Carry bag could be better quality.
In the US, a 102cm tripod of this build would cost $30–$40. So getting it at this price made it feel like a smart buy. Fully satisfied.
US $10.81

🎬 Lightweight Camera Tripod Stand with Bluetooth Remote
This tripod stood out with its sleek, matte-black finish and wider base. I bought it specifically for creating stable product shots and macro photography for my small business. I needed precision and good horizontal alignment.
Shipping was under three weeks, and the product came boxed neatly with all parts intact. Right out of the package, it felt more “premium” than others in the same price range—more solid and polished.
The tripod is intuitive to use. I love the smooth 3-way pan head—it allows fine adjustment, which is a big win for product shooting. I mounted both my phone and a compact Canon G7X on it without any issues.
Pros:
-
Great pan head for smooth movements.
-
Firm rubber feet.
-
Excellent stability.
Cons:
-
No spirit level for alignment.
-
Slightly heavier than others (but worth it).
Even with shipping, I paid under $12. The closest equivalent in US stores? Easily $40–$50. This one’s a keeper for sure.
US $7.93

📷 Bluetooth Selfie Tripod (3120 Model, 100cm)
This is another 3120 model, slightly repackaged, and I ordered it as a backup for travel. The Bluetooth remote and universal phone holder make it great for solo content creators. I wanted something I could toss in my car or bag and not worry if it got scratched or beat up.
It’s basically identical to the earlier 3120 tripod I reviewed, with the same pros and cons. Build quality is consistent, and the remote works just as well. I used it for Instagram Lives and it held up beautifully.
Pros:
-
Light and durable.
-
Remote has long range.
-
Compact when folded.
Cons:
-
Again, plastic head isn’t made for DSLRs.
-
Bag zipper feels a bit weak.
Still, for under $9, this is a functional, budget-friendly tripod that I now keep in my car for spontaneous shoots. It definitely met expectations.
US $6.05

🎞 Mobile Tripod for YouTube Video Creation
This model caught my eye because it was marketed specifically for YouTube and streaming. I’ve started experimenting with long-form content and needed a tripod that could stand for longer filming sessions without tipping or wobbling.
The box came with a detailed instruction sheet, a remote, and a reinforced phone mount. Setup was quick, and I was genuinely surprised by how sturdy this model is—it’s the heaviest of the bunch and that’s a good thing. It stays rock-solid during filming.
I filmed a 35-minute review video using this tripod, and the results were sharp and stable. No overheating issues with the remote, either.
Pros:
-
Excellent for long filming sessions.
-
Weighted base adds stability.
-
Works with phones and small cameras.
Cons:
-
Heavier = less portable.
-
No built-in level.
At $11, it competes with mid-tier tripods sold for $40+ in the US. For YouTubers or streamers starting out, this is a smart investment.
US $8.22
🔚 Overall Impression
Honestly, I didn’t expect all six tripods to be this good. AliExpress surprised me—I thought I’d have to deal with at least one dud, but each item performed better than its price suggested. While not professional gear, these tripods are more than enough for casual creators, vloggers, or small businesses.
Yes, I would recommend these to others. They’re budget-friendly, functional, and came faster than expected. I’m planning to try out some lighting equipment next. AliExpress is now part of my regular creative toolkit.
