Product description
The essentials
If you’re after a compact way to film steadier videos and get better angles without dragging a full tripod around, the Victiv Magnetic Selfie Stick is built for that middle ground: it combines a selfie stick, a mini tripod stand, and a phone handle in one folding device. On paper, it also targets travel-friendly filming and everyday content—selfies, vlogging, group shots, and video recording—where you want your phone to feel held more securely than a hand-only setup.
The headline feature is the magnetic attachment. You bring your phone close to the mount and it snaps into place quickly (the listing says under a second). For iPhone users with MagSafe-style cases, that approach can make setup faster when you’re moving between locations, or when you want to reposition without fiddling with clamps.
Still, it’s worth keeping expectations grounded: it’s a mini, portable accessory. It’s designed to be easy to carry and flexible in framing, but it may not replace a proper full-size tripod for long, heavy setups or very demanding shooting conditions.
What stands out in day-to-day use
The main “feel” of this accessory is flexibility. It supports multiple orientations and angles, including horizontal rotation (360°) plus vertical sliding for a broader range of framing. The listing also points to a 240° tilt range, which can be handy when you’re trying to capture details from lower angles or set up a wider view for groups from a slightly raised perspective.
There’s also a horizontal flip (180°) that’s aimed at switching between landscape and portrait quickly. When you’re filming on the go—say, walking through a venue and then wanting a portrait clip for stories—that kind of quick repositioning matters more than you might expect.
One more practical touch is the included remote. It’s described as detachable and designed for one-touch shooting and video recording, with an operating range of 10 metres. If you’re using the stick for solo shots, this can reduce the “press the button, shake the phone” problem, especially when you’re away from your tripod base.
Key takeaways on the magnetic mount
The magnetic system uses N52 magnets (as stated in the listing) and is designed to hold your device in place. For iPhone compatibility, the description mentions iPhone 17/16/15/14/13/12 series and MagSafe cases.
For phones outside that iPhone + MagSafe pairing, the listing says a magnetic metal ring is included to help create a secure fit. That’s a helpful idea if you want one device for both iPhone and Android—though you’ll still want to check that your specific phone setup works as intended with that ring, since magnetic alignment can be a bit fussy depending on case thickness and positioning.
Also, bear in mind that “secure” is not the same as “stunt-proof”. The listing claims it can keep the device held even during extreme sports practice, but in real buying terms, it’s still a pocket-sized tripod—so it may not suit heavy-duty rigging or harsh outdoor conditions where you’d want more mass and locking.
Portability and stability: the trade-off you’re buying
This is clearly aimed at travellers. The stated weight is 114g, and it folds down to about 11 cm—small enough to sit in a pocket, bag, or suitcase without making your load feel silly. The listing also mentions a hook design so you can hang it off a side pocket or belt for easier carrying.
For stability, the stick includes a four-point anti-slip base and a telescopic aluminium alloy shaft. The telescopic section is described as 6 sections extending to a maximum length of 40 cm. That combination is meant to give you firmer ground when you’re setting up at a table, desk, or flat surface.
Where you may find limits is height and reach. If your goal is very high-angle shooting or you want longer distance framing for outdoor scenes, a longer tripod or more substantial setup might still be the better tool. For travel content, though, this size makes a lot of sense.

Who it suits (and who should think twice)
It’s a good fit if you want an all-in-one, travel-friendly way to film and take photos with a phone mount that’s quick to attach. If you frequently switch between holding your phone and setting it down to shoot, the magnetic snap approach plus the mini tripod form factor should feel convenient.
It may not suit you if you’re expecting a “serious tripod” experience. With a maximum length of 40 cm and a compact build, it’s more of a mobile content tool than a replacement for larger, heavier tripods. Also, if you often shoot in situations where you need the phone locked in extremely rigid positions for long periods, you’ll want to judge whether a mini base and pocket-sized design will be steady enough for your style.
It might not be a great match if you’re buying for a very specific phone setup and you don’t want to deal with the magnetic ring approach for non-MagSafe phones.
Mini FAQ
Getting the best results for selfies and vlogging
Start by attaching your phone with the magnet mount, then set the base on a stable flat surface. Use the tilt range to adjust the angle rather than extending the stick fully—this usually helps keep framing more controlled.
Does the remote really help?
The listing says it supports one-touch photo and video recording with a 10-metre range. In practice, it should reduce shake for solo shots because you’re not reaching in to press the phone button.
Can Android users use it?
The description says the included magnetic metal ring helps create a secure fit for other smartphones. If your Android phone relies on a thicker case or you can’t position the ring accurately, it could be a bit more trial-and-error.
How portable is it for travel?
It’s designed to be light (114g) and fold down to around 11 cm, with a hook for hanging from a bag side pocket or belt. That makes it the kind of accessory you’re more likely to actually bring.
Final verdict
When it makes sense
The Victiv Magnetic Selfie Stick for iPhone is worth considering if you prioritise quick phone attachment, multi-angle framing, and pocketable convenience for travel, selfies, vlogging, and casual video recording. The combination of a magnetic mount, a telescopic 6-section stick, a mini tripod base, and a remote is a sensible “do more with less” approach.
You may want to skip it if you’re after maximum stability, very tall shots, or a more rigid shooting setup for demanding conditions. In that case, its compact size and mini tripod nature could leave you wanting more. For most everyday creators, though, it looks like a practical tool—especially if you’re already in the MagSafe ecosystem or you’re happy to use the included magnetic ring for other phones.
