This Flexible Phone Mount Is Actually Great For Solo Photos

Whether you want to take a group shot without asking a random person on the street to take the picture, or just want a good selfie, selfie sticks don’t always cut it — and at this point, it's pretty hard to find a place where they're not banned. (And, well, they look kind of ridiculous.) Instead, pick up a much more flexible option, like the GekkoStick. It's basically a long, flexible base that can be wrapped around railings or branches or set up as a mount. It also includes a Bluetooth remote, which is great for shots that require more distance between you and the camera to get the full backdrop. It’s quite compact and can be folded comfortably into your pocket, so you’re less likely to leave it behind (or be easily identified as a tourist). The GekkoStick normally costs $19.95, but you can get it on sale today for $16.95.
