the GOAT
on January 12, 2023
Posted by: ed

After using it for a couple of months, it's just GOAT.
The magnetic grip, rubberized feet and mount and many small details are just exactly how I hope it will be. It's simply magic! As a fellow industrial designer who is super particular about what we pay and use, there just isn't a better product out there.
I had a few worries about the tripod obstructing NFC on my Pixel 7 but after using it many times, there is absolutely no issues.
A minor issue is that it's hard to charge or access the USB C port due to the limited clearance. A way is to flip it to horizontal while charging.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazingly well built and super functional!

I bought this about a couple months and it now constantly accompanies my iPhone 13 Pro Max with the Everyday case.
First things first - build quality: this is a top-notch product. It feels great in your hands, has a solid feel to it! It even comes with a mini hex tool (magnetically attached) to control the tension on the ball-head. The ball-head is so smooth as if it rides on a cloud!
How it attaches to your mag-safe phone or a mag-safe case: The tripod has a soft rubbery side to it and it attaches either to your mag-safe phone or a mag-safe case securely and aligns itself auto-magically. The magnets are super strong. Rest assured that your phone will never pop out of the tripod!
Usability: See attached pictures for a great overview on the various positions that you can mount your phone with this Tripod. You can use it in landscape, portrait, facing down, facing up, etc.
You can also use this on your desk without deploying the legs.
This also works well in a selfie-stick mode without deploying the legs. You just unfold the tripod and hold with your had for taking selfies!

Major Improvement for my Pixel
on January 4, 2023

from Des Moines, Iowa
I use this everyday, I always have it attached to my phone. I don't use it just for photography. It's perfect just to set it down on a desk or a counter, watch a video or to use my phone like a mobile Google Home. Completely upgrades my phone's hands free capability. It is just nice to not have to have your phone in your hands or set it flat on its back.

Compact, strong, stable

It’s much more expensive than a pop socket and adds noticeable weight, but it’s great build quality and seriously useful for all kinds of purposes (photos, watching videos, bits of working, etc).

Versatile and sturdy phone stand
on December 27, 2022
Posted by: Magicphoneguy
from silicon valley , Ca
I bought this stand with the every day case. I was looking for a phone stand that was designed well with the sturdy materials. This tripod fit the bill. I use it with everyday case as well as my other case with a metal back plate. it is thin enough to fit in my pocket without being bulky. It easily folds to multiple configurations , with each being sturdy enough to hold the phone. Once you tighten the ball joint to the right compression it holds well, and will hold to your desired position. Overall I am impressed with the quality and design . I do recommend it to anyone who wants a well made mobile stand that is different that all the others out there.

Well designed/ but too heavy for everyday use
on December 24, 2022
Posted by: pyeiter
from Tucson, AZ
Well crafted and machined, but the product is heavy.
It makes any pocket droop. It's too bad it couldn't have been constructed of a lighter material. The reason this product is so appealing is that it should always be with you,. but it will have to go in a camera bag (which I'm trying to avoid).

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The best stand out there
on December 23, 2022
Posted by: Andrew
from GA
To be honest, I am not a photographer. I think if I was, I'd opt for a moment case instead (I wonder if this tripod is compatible?)
But I am an avid YouTube watcher and this tripod is the perfect stand. It's fairly slim and supports such a massive variety of angles. I love the design of it with the included hex key. And it's super easy to swap it between portrait and landscape. Maybe it's expensive for a stand, but I use it all the time.
