This boom fully meets my expectations. I thought I should install an app on my samsung note 4 for this to work, and there is not even needed. 2 minutes after opening the package, I was already taking pictures with. The product matches the description. You can detach the stick remote control to put the smartphone on the tripod and remote trigger shooting. Only small remark: small parts not to tighten the screws are not plastic and seem a bit fragile. I handle them with care, but for that price, it seems quite logical. In short, I am fully satisfied with my purchase, and recommend this product.
