Introduction
The C05 Multifunctional Selfie Stick Tripod promises versatility and convenience in a compact package. This review details my experience using this 78.7-inch (approximately 200cm) retractable tripod, equipped with Bluetooth wireless remote control. I put it through its paces, testing its stability, ease of use, and overall performance across various scenarios.
Features and Design
The C05 boasts a sleek, black design. Its retractable nature makes it incredibly portable, easily fitting into a backpack or even a large handbag. The Bluetooth remote is seamlessly integrated and connects quickly to both my iPhone and Android devices. The adjustable height and tilt function provide a lot of flexibility in framing shots. The 1/4-inch nut ensures compatibility with a wide array of cameras and smartphones.

Performance and Usage
I tested the C05 in various settings: taking selfies, group photos, landscape shots, and even some time-lapse photography. The Bluetooth remote worked flawlessly, providing a lag-free experience. The tripod’s stability was impressive at lower heights, but at its maximum extension, it required a relatively still surface to avoid camera shake. The adjustable tilt function is a valuable asset, allowing for creative angles. Setting up and taking down the tripod is a straightforward process. The included manual is clear and easy to follow.
One minor drawback I encountered was the slightly flimsy feel of the leg locks at the maximum height. While it held my phone securely, I wouldn’t trust it with heavier cameras. The battery life of the Bluetooth remote seems adequate for a full day of casual use. I did notice some occasional minor Bluetooth connectivity issues, requiring a brief reconnection. These were infrequent, however.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Lightweight and portable, easy to use, Bluetooth remote works well, adjustable height and tilt, good value for the price, compatible with various devices.
- Cons: Slightly flimsy at maximum height, occasional minor Bluetooth connectivity issues, build quality could be improved for longevity.
Final Verdict
Overall, the C05 Multifunctional Selfie Stick Tripod offers a compelling combination of features and affordability. Its portability and ease of use make it a great choice for casual users. While some minor improvements in build quality could enhance its durability, the C05 delivers on its promise of a versatile and convenient photography accessory. I would recommend this tripod to anyone looking for a reliable and affordable option for taking selfies, group photos, or even some basic landscape shots. Just be mindful of its limitations at maximum height.
