JOBY Impulse Reviews

Device does not stay paired

By Paul

Date: 2026-04-08

This is a replacement device after the first one failed to stay paired. The replacement one also does not stay paired. I replaced the battery with a fresh one at 3.3 v (the original one was 2.9 v) and it still does not work properly. Can you please credit my account and suggest a better replacement? Thank you, Paul R.

Got this as a package with a Gorrillapod. Once in a random long while, it will decide to work. Amazon has several similar units and they all, too, have poor reviews.

There is no on/off switch. As long as you have the remote near the phone or device and the bluetooth is turned on, it will pair up.

The JOBY Impulse Bluetooth Remote emits very little noise, and would not be picked up by a microphone under normal usage.
