I absolutely love this thing. The tripod function obviously is great. Far superior to any phone case, kickstand. It is great as an amateur photographer/videographer for my children, that I can easily prop up my camera to film something, or hold it by the legs of the mount to take a steady video. It would be nice if it utilized the notch in your phone cases. I know it is wishful thinking, but if wireless charging could go through the mount to the phone, that would be fantastic. But idk if that is really feasibly to maintain the strength of the mount.
I've been using this for a month and this thing is handy! I initially thought that it would be handy sometimes but that I wouldn't have it on all the time. I was wrong, I have it on the phone all the time because I use it more than I thought I would. Several friends have asked where to get it. It's pricey, but high quality and worth every cent!
I have been using the mobile tripod for about a week and love every bit of it. It's slim yet sturdy. The rubberized feet prevents it from sliding around. The magnet is super strong and I have no concerns about it falling off. It folds up in seconds. It's relatively light. In fact, I keep it on my phone at all times. Yes, it's expensive but it's a major upgrade from my previous phone holder. Highly recommend.
I am a content creator who makes short form and long form content. A lot of my stuff is on the go and spontaneous and this tripod makes it really easy to get any shot you need, regardless of how level the surface is. It is also slim and can be taken off and on easily, yet keeping my iPhone on there snug.
I purchased this for use with my iPhone 12 Pro Max. Excellent stand for use with the phone--works well in portrait or landscape. The little legs allow one to plug in the lightning cable while its standing. Only issue is that the tuning key can be lost if you drop the stand.
For such a small footprint, this is an exceptionally stable little tripod. Adjustable tension helps if your phone is heavier or lighter, and makes maneuverability easier.
The Mobile Tripod is such an essential tool for any phone, that I can hardly imagine traveling without it. Its slick form factor lets you take it anywhere (it still is a bit heavy). Then, whenever you want to take a selfie, a stable video or (like me) a time-lapse, it gives you the perfect stability.
