Absolutely fantastic. Finally, you can put the Insta360 X5 in your jacket pocket without having to unscrew the selfie stick first.

Brilliant item. Small compact and lightweight. Whole thing with camera attached will drop into my pocket and quick out and ready to use. Absolutely perfect for holidays.Very well built sturdy and metal in key places. Length is long enough to be of proper use and whilst not quite as long as the insta 114 all it's other features make this my go to now for travel

In contrast to the original from Insta, the K&F version has a magnetic quick-release fastener and a longer selfie stick. Only the tripod feet from the original are missing. In return, the K&F is also cheaper and completely sufficient for me.

1. First impression & processing
At first glance, the magnetic quick-release selfie stick from K&F Concept looks surprisingly high-quality and well thought-out and exactly what you want for the new Insta360 X5. The foldable design is not only compact, but also cleverly implemented:
When folded, the stick barely takes up any space and fits easily into any camera or everyday bag. The mechanism feels solid, nothing wobbles, nothing looks cheap. The ergonomically shaped handle with a pleasantly grippy structure that provides a secure grip even when cold or when wearing gloves is particularly impressive.
2. Technology & practice test
The magnetic quick-release fastener is the absolute highlight here:
The camera snaps into place within seconds, reliably, stably and without fiddling. This is exactly how a modern quick-release system should work. The invisible stick function is also convincing:
In 360° shots, the selfie stick is neatly hidden, as you would expect from high-quality Insta360-compatible sticks. The maximum length of 89 cm is not exactly long, but long enough for dynamic shots, group shots or third-person view perspectives. At the same time, the stick remains sufficiently stable and torsion-resistant, even during rapid movements.
The silicone lens cover is another plus point. It reliably protects the sensitive X5 lenses, even when the camera is in a pocket or backpack. The fact that the manufacturer has thought about this rounds off the overall package.
3. Personal conclusion
An excellent selfie stick for the Insta360 X5 - compact, sturdy, well made and with an extremely practical quick-release fastener. For the price, you get a well-rounded package without any real weaknesses. That is why a very clear 5-star recommendation.

Miles better than a monopod or generic selfie stick. The unit fold away when not in use and it also protects your lenses. While a little expensive, it works great and will protect your equipment.
