Some are satisfactory, some aren’t so good and there are others that go beyond what is advertised and expected. I have provided a review of 10 selfie sticks for GoPro cameras.

3. GoPro The Handler (Floating Hand Grip)
This is the perfect pole for going underwater. Though it is advertised as waterproof up to 33 feet, some users have reported being able to use it as far as 80 feet. However, if you do go beyond 33 feet, it will be neutrally buoyant so I hope you’re okay with that. The handle is also made of foam so it will hold some water after you’re done. Not so much that it will be like a sponge filled with water but it will be noticeable. You can either wait for it to dry or pack it in a plastic bag since it may still be damp.

4. GoPole GPE-10 EVO 14-24″ Floating Extension Pole for GoPro Cameras (Transparent)
My favorite part of this product is that the stick is transparent. It’s perfect for shooting fishes and corals underwater because it’s not so noticeable. It does not have a bluetooth remote but it has a strap for one so you can purchase it separately. It has a nice grip, it’s extendable up to 2 feet, and because of it’s transparent design, it won’t show up too much in your selfies.

5. SHINEDA® telescopic handheld monopod pole SD-208 for GoPro Hero 2 3 3 3+ 4, GoPro Hero4 Session ,36″ (Black)
This monopod pole is only 11 inches when folded and 36 inches when extended. It’s very compact and can fit into your purse or backpack. The twist-to-lock feature is good because you don’t have to exert too much effort with extending and collapsing. The only problem with this is the wrist strap connector at the bottom. It’s thin and doesn’t feel too sturdy so it can feel like it might slip off at anytime. But it’s a good product overall, especially if you’re looking for something compact.

This has received a 3 star rating on Amazon. It is made of poor quality material and it’s not very sturdy. It’s hard to expand and when you want to return it, it jams. It’s made of cheap plastic and the wrist strap is weak. Overall, not a good buy.
