For instance, recreating one's own Oscar selfie would be a tough feat even for long, lanky arms.

Available on Brando, the Quick Selfie Pole is made to work with Android phones and small digital cameras. It clicks in securely and boasts a button on its handle to make snapping pictures even easier. Ideal for travelers and big parties, it can be used both indoors and outdoors. Essentially, the Quick Selfie Pole ensures that more of the environment gets into the image as well as ensuring no one is cut out.
