Doesn’t really work for a common use case
on February 13, 2025

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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best gadget ever!

Immediately after opening the box, I knew, this is great. I use it everyday. It’s a great stand, mini tripod and at night, it’s a click stand. It’s uses are up to your own imagination,
It’s light, compact, sturdy and stable. So what more do you want?
No really, what more?

Very secure and handy accessory

Expensive, but I suspect it will last a long time! Very secure MagSafe attachment and a ton of adjustment possible for on the go use.

Doesn’t lock into the slim link connector

You have an amazing feature in your slimlock tech. All of your mobile product should utilize this proprietary tech you have otherwise what’s your competitive advantage? I bought your iPhone case ONLY because of the proprietary tech yet you don’t offer enough accessories to utilize this amazing feature. You have such an advantage…..use your tech!!!

Great design and build

Have not had it long so hoping it holds up with a lot of use, but it really feels like a premium build and quality build. It works great with the case I bought from peak for my phone. The magnate is not as strong as I thought it should be but so far has kept the phone in place as needed. Very handy to have with my phone.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It's there when you need it

I love it
I don't really need-need a tripod for my phone
But when I do, it's so good to have it on me
I doesn't take a lot of space, it's not that heavy and really just does what it should

What I'd use it for?
When going out to a picnic, or any outdoor event
Especially if I'm hiking
But also on flights to watch movies

Thinking about it, it will be perfect for my next hike trip outside the country!

Ridiculously well made

I brought this on a whim as I had the PD case. It is very, very good. I know three people who have seen it and have ordered one. It is a pretty compelling product. Well made. Solid and secure.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Embarrassed I didn't get one sooner

I put off buying one of these for so long and all that time I was balancing my phone against mugs and stuff, completely oblivious to the FACT that this is exactly what I've been looking for! It's just perfect.
I would recommend this to a friend!
