the worst item in the Mobile line. I've had 6 of these come loose and phones fall off, the glue pad just let's loose, I almost lost 2 phones it seems to last about 1 month. one let loose when I pulled it off the Peak wireless charger the others were attached to the out front bicycle mount on a ride when they lt loose

The universal adapter is great for turning any case into a magnetic/magsafe case. Makes it really easy to wireless charge if you have a magnetic qi battery pack or holding the wallet. The quality of the magnet is excellent and really strong.
i love the functionality of this adapter but i wish it was reusable. i placed it on a case as i waited for my pixel case to arrive, but now that its here and i want to use it on my tablet, i realized that i cant reuse it and im a little bummed. but it def does the job and if you dont plan on reusing it, its worth the compatibility with other accessories
A delightful way to stick your phone to just about anything, including the accessories in the Mobile architecture, and anything MagSafe. I've enjoyed being able to stick my phone to pieces of my vehicle while working on it and watching the process video for whatever I'm working on at the time. Barely noticeable addition to the exterior of a case, and you forget it's there soon enough.
I needed to attach a 4" dash cam monitor to my motorcycle so I I took a chance on the universal adapter. It comes with everything needed to center the adapter to the monitor and so far the adhesive it comes with is holding strong and tight. It worked so good on my dash cam monitor that I bought a second one to mount my cellphone to my motorcycle handlebar.
I got the iPhone 13 case from Peak Design. It's awesome, especially when paired with the Creator Kit. During the summer, I'm a beach adventurer so, I slapped this universal adapter on my waterproof case & it works flawlessly. I haven't tried using a magsafe charger so, I'll see how that goes. (I'll try to update my post if I can.)
The entire system is very clever and works for better than any other system I've seen, but it isn't without its issues. The foot print of the plate is large, too large to be centers on an S22 Ultra. The other issue arises from the magnet affect things like internal S-pens from being properly detected. Then there's the fact that the magnets aren't strong enough to be used a bare metal surface meaning you'll need a wall mount to use it on a wall. Then of course the biggest issue is the single use design. It is possible to use a glue for a second use but the fact it's a single use application for the cost is a bit much.
For the prices being paid there are quite a few short comings or issues to be aware of, that are there by choice.
Like I said it's a good system, but flawed for fee.
