Not for everyone, but a marvellous bit of kit

Bought alongside a case for my Pixel 7a, this little magnetic tripod really is fantastic. Awesome design, sleek, subtle, it adds only a little bit of bulk to the phone case.
While a bit awkward for jean pockets, I've had no issue with the (little) extra heft when carrying it in a coat or jacket, which is more likely when I'm out and about using it for photos. But considering it's magnetic, it's also super easy to remove when I don't need it. I've found the little carry pouch that comes with the tripod to be very helpful in this regard. It means I can store and protect the tripod, but it's on hand if I decide I need it.
The tightening tool is my only minor gripe. It can be a bit fiddly, to the point where I'm not even entirely sure how much of a difference I'm making when I use it, buuuuut that said I've had zero issues with stability and am enjoying the overall versatility of the tripod itself.
Sure, it's a bit pricey, and not needed by everyone, but it's also the only mini tripod that ticked all the boxes for me. Functional, compact, useful: a great product and another win from Peak Design.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Tripod
on December 15, 2023

I bought this a couple months ago and feel like I’ve gotten enough use to write a good review. The product is nothing short of perfect for its purpose. I use it daily to post up my phone at the gym. If I had to recommend a change I’d request that the adjustment key not be a magnetic material. I also have the wallet with stand which is another great product. What happens is the key often gets magnetized out of the tripod and stuck to the wallet. I usually end up finding it bouncing around in the dryer as it almost always falls off the wallet and stays in my pants pocket. Regardless of this I’ve gifted PD products and everyone love their new kit.

Love this tripod

This tripod is awesome and I didn’t realize how much I would use it - extremely well made and I would not expect anything less from PD (has some weight to but in a perfect way). Don’t hesitate and just buy it.

I’ve had this for a couples months now. I was truly worried it would be a bad purchase…. But for real, I go EVERYWHERE with this and I use it for everything. It’s fast and easy. Pictures with family… super easy. Cooking, GREAT! Work calls all day long on speaker phone… that is my primary use. Love this. Lay in bed and use kickstand for my TikToking. Phone is sideways on my bed propped up so I don’t have to hold it.

Very stable and adjustable for different angles

I've had this for about 2 months and can't say I've used it much. It is very handy in situations where you need to stand up the phone, whether it's to take photos or watch a show, or even using FaceTime while you're doing something else. However, the primary reason why I don't use this often is because it is quite heavy and adds quite a bit of weight to carry around, therefore it's usually left at (or forgotten) at home so it's rarely with me when I have a need for it.

Game Changer!
on December 21, 2023
Posted by: mcrathenn

I have had this tripod for about 8 months and it has been an absolute game changer. I literally use it every single day, not just for filming, but as a fantastic phone stand for when I watch videos while eating, or need to check a recipe. It's better than anything I have seen out there.
But where it really shines, is in the quality of the videos it puts out. We have two young kids and getting high quality videos of them has been key for us. Our home movies look professional and I've been thrilled with the kinds of shots I can get that I wouldn't be able to do otherwise.

Always there when needed

Usually, when I want a tripod I don't have one, but this solves that problem. It's simple to use and it makes taking long-exposure photos and selfies so much easier.
