The pairing is quick and intuitive. After turning on the sticks on the bottom you need only the camera button hold the handle down until the blue LED on the bottom begins to flash. Then you only need to activate Bluetooth on the smartphone and looking to stick it and connect. Reportedly, however, the key is functioning here with iPhones and Android devices, not Windows Phones! I'm using in my case, a Sony Xperia Z3 with Android 5, making the pairing worked easily on the first attempt.
The Selfie Stick is detected in this case as a Bluetooth keyboard. Basically, it is nothing else. The Photo button corresponding to the "Enter" key of a conventional Bluetooth keyboard. Since this does not start the Camera app, you have to do this when using before anything else happens. Before that clamped the phone in the holder and screwed to the drive and away you go!
Particularly positive the smartphone bracket I noticed. I already have a few similar lying around here, with whom I have been far from satisfactory. The contained herein is but functionally and qualitatively better than me. It consists by and large (up to screws and threads) made of plastic, but can look very sophisticated. Are located on the inside and a few rubber so that the smartphone will not be scratched. The fact that the holder can be pushed out, should also be larger (and thicker) smartphones find place. The orange rubber piece that you can also slide to the bracket, provides extra support. My 5.2 "large Sony Xperia Z3 is very well. In the extended state no knobs through the bracket" occupied ".
The bar itself is also okay. It consists of metal and is gummed on the handle. The lower part of the control system consists of plastic. About a microUSB jack on the underside allows the 55mAh Charging large battery. The metal smells a little and verharkt itself when extending a bit. But I think that these two points are set rapidly with time.
Conclusion: The Bluetooth Selfie stick is very easy to use and works great. If you want to take photos or videos of yourself with your smartphone (VLOGs, travel, group photos, etc.), so this Selfie Stick is ideal. The smartphone holder I will personally use probably also for other things.
