love this fkn stand !!! I have the everyday case and its perfect a pairing! I use it al the time!
FYI - its best for phone cases that DO NOT have any bumps around the edge of the back of phone! (mainly if you want to use stand with the phone horizontal, it will work just fine vertically)
My hunt for THE phone stand is finally over. This is hands down the best system — I’m never looking elsewhere again. My favorite feature is the key that tightens the ball head to extend its longevity. Every time I show it to family and friends, their jaws drop — and I love being Peak Design’s unofficial, no-commission salesperson.
I've had this one for years, and it is still like new. Well made, versatile. I use it in my home office and when I travel and it's probably my favorite phone accessory, ever.
I bought this a few weeks ago and have been amazed by how convenient it is to take everywhere and how useful it is to record content easily, watch a movie, video call someone. I have used it so much more than I thought I would. It is easily adjustable with the tool that comes with it and hides in one of the legs. The only reason that I didn't give it 5 stars is that the ballhead becomes too loose sometimes and needs frequent tightening, and because I feel the magnet attachment could be stronger. I had it on in the car and after getting in a pothole, the phone detached from the mobile tripod.
I've purchased so many phone clips & mounts, but most are either not well made or they are too big a cumbersome that I never take them anywhere. This little tripod is impressive. The MagSafe mount is firm on the Peak Design Case and the quality construction is worth the price. The Carryology print design is worth the extra ten bucks just to be cool. I will definitely be taking this with me and using it. One thing to note is that it is solid and therefore add some weight to your phone. The good thing is that it clings to the MagSafe wallet and the pair fits nicely in my front pocket while not on my phone.
This tripod has made having a phone conversation fun again. Prop up your phone and see the screen. An added plus while charging too. The cable extends freely and isn't cramped or bent.
I’ve had this tripod for a bit now and have found it more useful than I expected. Not only is it a great tripod for photos and videos, I’ve found it useful for working at my desk and propping up my phone. It’s slim and super easy to stash in a sling and take with me wherever I go.
Long time fan of Peak Design products, and as expected, this is a very well engineered (and compact) tripod. Unfortunately, it doesn’t do its job particularly well. The attachment to my iPhone 14 is good, but not great. The bigger problem is that it’s very very difficult to position this tripod such that the front camera can angle upwards - which is one of the main positions you’d want it to be in. There just isn’t enough room under the ball head (and this is without a phone case). If you angle it back far enough the magnetic attachment will come loose but the bottom of the phone will be held in place by the angle of the bottom of the stand - which works, but isn’t particularly stable. I feel like some slightly different design choices would have made this an absolutely killer tripod but as it is, I’d save the money and get something much cheaper.
