I’m not the best selfie photographer, this we all know, so I was thrilled when I was asked to try out a selfie-stick!
It’s basically a long extendable poleย ย that you attach to your phone, and you take photos with it! It makes your arms extra long ๐
There are a few types of selfie sticks on the market at the moment, and I quite liked this particular version because the shutter release button is on the stick itself, so there are less parts to carry around.
The selfie stick is a short stick that fits into your handbag, or manbag, and it extends to just over 1m! You charge it with the supplied USB cable, and after 1 hour of charging you’ll get approx 100 hours of fun. It connected toย your phone via bluetooth.
We’ve had a ball playing with it! The kids fought over it and my mom got quite excited about it and said she needed it for her travelling!
We were thinking that there are endless uses for it, apart from selfies, including taking photos over crowds trying to see a painting like the Mona Lisa, taking photos at a concert, spying over walls and even around corners!
Using a selfie stick is so much easier than trying to make your arms as long as possible!
It’s also an awesome gift idea for Christmas, so if you’re still trying to figure out what to buy someone that is selfie mad or travels a lot or goes to plenty music concerts… this is the thing!
You can buy the selfie stick online for R399.
They work on iOS and Android phones are available in black, pink or blue.

Seems like granny and the boys had loads of fun … the second last photo speaks volumes ๐
Oh gosh this would be awesome to have. Holding thumbz โ
Oh yes we did !!!! We had so much fun !! What a super gadget to have!! so many options for it’s use and above all you don’t have to take one of those selfies with a puffed up distorted face showing all the wrinkles!!!!
Black is best ๐
I would like any colour – this little gadget will make taking selfies SO MUCH easier! AND MORE FUN. I might get Kade into taking some non #thisisthree cheesy pictures again! Pick me! Pick me!
Such a cool gadget! Black would be great.
I’ve entered because I’d really really really love to win this!
Not phased on color at all but would so adore this for Fysh and I and The Person of course!
Hopefully the rafflecopter entry worked, but I have never been able to figure it out and I am not technologically challenged!
Love selfies, always have and always will. Guess I am just picture obsessed. I was looking through old pictures and I have selfies from way back in the early 2000s!!!
YAY!! Finally figured our rafflecopter!!!! Easy peasy
Yay glad you worked it out ๐
A pink or blue one would be awesome!
How cool! Need it, I am never in pics because I am awful at selfies.
Pink โค๏ธ
Visited and Liked. xx
What a great little gizmo!
Black…I’d never live down pink.
I am intrigued! I would prefer the unobtrusive black selfie stick ๐
Very cool!
Really cool!
White
I would love a blue selfie stick! Really would love to win this!!!
I would absolutely love a black one.. I completely suck at taking selfies.. this would be awesome ๐
Would love to win a pink one!
Why pink when I am black obsessed, you may ask?
Because just like the red pen versus a blue pen debate, no one ever steals the pink thing.
With my short arms its exactly what I need – not fussy about the colour
a black one
Taking selfies to a new level! I’m in ๐
I’m also terrible at taking selfies so I think I need it ๐ A pink one would be super-cute!
Love the photos of your mom and the boys!
