The color accents sets the iSnap X on stand-foot and around the release button, these components are made of aluminum and shine. Optical makes me the Stick a high-quality impression.
The stick is with its 200g is not necessarily a lightweight, but the stick feels due to the weight of dibasic.
The rest of the stick is made of solid matt black plastic, in addition, the gripping surface is rubberized. So the stick does not slip so quickly out of hand, I find that clever.
The Smartphone Holder also consists of matte black plastic. Above and below this is coated with silicone to protect your phone from damage and sliding. The upper part of the holder can be easily pulled by a spring mechanism on the silicone flap upwards and springs back automatically to the placed Smartphone hold. The terminal can withdraw up to about 7.5 cm. The complete bracket can be rotated vertically, the holder has reached the desired angle can tighten her the screw on the holder. The smartphone holder can not be removed.
The extendable telescopic rod is made of aluminum and is not painted, it can be with some force exit 6 levels and thus reaches a length of 54cm (only the bar). Including handle and Smartphone Holder it is 80cm.
So that the stick does not really fall out of his hand, MPOW provides a Umschnallband for the wrist, which is tied to the stick-foot. This can be fixed-lashed but are easily removed if necessary. It is printed in black and white with MPOW logos. I find this a practical and chic bonus.
