Reviews of Ulanzi Extendable Tripod (Ulanzi MT-08) to replace heavy gimbals and tripods when trip


Ulanzi Extendable Tripod (Ulanzi MT-08) Review Summary


In this post, the specifications and user reviews of the Ulanzi MT-08 following the last unboxing.


First of all, to summarize my experience while traveling for a few days, it was light in weight and easy to carry around, and I was able to use it quickly because it was not connected by turning the power on like a typical gimbal. And when the stick is extended to the maximum, it has a shorter length than a normal selfie stick, but I felt it was long enough unless I had to take a lot of people.


The only disappointing thing is that it is a bit expensive compared to the price you can buy from Ali Express, and other than that, it is a satisfactory product.

The length of the Ulanzi Extendable Tripod (Ulanzi MT-08) when folded is 147.9mm, and the diameter of the handle is 30.2mm.


The thickness of the handle felt like it was just the right thickness, neither too big nor too small when I held it in my hand.


The length of the smartphone holder (Ulanzi ST-07) is 76.8mm, the width is 36mm, and the thickness of the front and back is 24.5mm.

The width of the inner hole for fixing the smartphone is 9.6mm, so if the smartphone is covered with a case, there is no problem in fixing it. Even if the case is thickened by attaching it, the fixing power is strong, and there is no fear of it falling off because the rubber on the outside catches it.


When the smartphone holder is attached, the minimum length is 22.5cm, and when the rod is extended to the maximum, it is about 35cm.

Ulanzi Extendable Tripod (Ulanzi MT-08) Reviews, Testimonials


The picture below compares the length of Xiaomi's selfie stick when it is extended to the maximum, and you can think of it as having a length that is about 1/3 of a normal selfie stick .


In terms of relative length, it may feel short, but in actual use, it felt that it was sufficient length, and I thought that it was an appropriate length in terms of inflicting damage to the surroundings even if it was extended to the maximum.


This is a picture of the smartphone standing on a tripod while it is mounted. The tripod does not require a lot of space when unfolded, so it is good to place it in a narrow space, and it can stand stably even when tripod is extended to the maximum unless there is strong wind.


This is the view when the bar is extended to the maximum with the smartphone attached. Because the length of the bar is short, even when it is extended to the maximum, there is little feeling that the weight is shifted forward.


The smartphone can stand up to 90 degrees, so it looks good enough for selfies or vlogs, unless you need to use it at an extreme angle.


The fixing power of the ball head is also good, and the weight of the smartphone does not loosen the fixation of the ball head.


The part that can bend the ball head up to 90 degrees is only possible with the part with a groove on the bottom of the ball head.


It seems to have been designed in consideration of the case where the lock is loosened from side to side due to the shift of the weight, and there is no case where the ball head rotates due to the weight of the smartphone. if you don't rotate hand.


The fixing tension of the smartphone holder (Ulanzi ST-07) is very strong .


However, when the fixing part is extended, when you look at the back, the inside is empty, and it is not thickly molded, so I had a feeling that it might break.


It 's fine right now, but it felt like it could break if the durability of the plastic deteriorates after using it for a long time.



The following is a state in which the smartphone is placed at a 90 degree angle and the tripod legs are spread out.


Because the length of the rod is short, it cannot be used for product photography, but it seems that the stability of the tripod is good in that it can withstand the tripod without being knocked over.


Although the weight of the smartphone used in the test is 186g, it is a light model, but it seems to be able to withstand the weight of the smartphone when the tripod is unfolded unless it is placed at such an extreme angle, such as when taking a product review photo.



It is a pity that this product was purchased at a domestic shopping mall and was a bit disappointing in terms of price and that I was worried about the durability of the smartphone holder.


In addition, during the 10-day trip, the length of the rod was short, so there was no effect of shaking due to the good fixability of the rod even when shooting video.


In addition, the fact that it can be carried without burden in terms of portability due to its light weight was also considered to be quite advantageous compared to gimbals that generally weigh 4~500g. If you want to shoot a light vlog or need a sturdy selfie stick, I thought it would be a good product.
