Trendy gadget for unusual perspectives

The telescopic pole itself is about 62cm long, including handle is about 77cm until the cell phone holder. The total length incl. Handle bracket and is approximately 90cm. The recording for the smartphone is made of plastic, which is padded with rubber. The fixing is done by a clamp that clamps the mobile phone with a spring mechanism between the rubber cushions. Without tools or screws, simply mount, phone in and let go. The spring force can I find a good choice. Not having to worry too hard to damage, but in any case firmly enough to the holders entrust the phone safely can.

The individual telescopic elements are also relatively fixed, so that they can move independently in any case. The handle itself is still a hand strap attached, with which the rod can be attached to the wrist.

The operation is quite simple: Before using rod and phone must be "truly hands". These press good three seconds the trigger button on the bar, the blue LED in the button starts flashing. Search now in the smartphone for Bluetooth devices and select the "TaoTronics TT-SH10". Done.

If both devices are successfully connected, the release button lights solid blue. If the rod is not used, it automatically turns itself off to save power.

The "pairing" is necessary only once. After that the rod can "button for 3 seconds trigger button" through and be switched off again, the connection with the phone is automatically followed.

The rod can be used over long distances as a pure remote control. Phone simply place somewhere and you can be the trigger in a radius of ten meters loose press.

A charging cable (USB / microUSB) is, the manual's even in German, however, the translation is a bit bumpy. My Samsung Galaxy S3 has recognized the bar once and the camera button works fine. If that does not work at times a smartphone right away that SelfieCam app from the Play Goals help (just after "TaoTronics" search).

Overall, TaoTronics TT-SH10 is a nice gadget. The price is fair, function and workmanship are good.
