Seems great so far
This is the best phone holder of this type that I have found yet. The joints are a bit stiff, but too loose would be a deal breaker, so I won’t complain. It is hard to tell from the pictures, but I can confirm that there are grippy rubber pads on the top and bottom parts of the clamping mechanism. It’s fairly lightweight and still feels sturdy. Time will tell how it holds up to use, but it certainly seems like a good purchase.
Useful but wobbly
I use this whenever I'm taking aviation photos and my friend wants to join me through video. It saved me from having to awkwardly balance both my camera and my phone but I noticed that it wobbles after I remove it from the top of my Nikon. Luckily, I have a tiny screwdriver that fits well enough that I can tighten it; but this is a constant, every use, issue. It can get rather tiring. It holds my iPhone 14 Pro (with a case) just fine and it could probably stretch an inch more if need be. You can turn the phone holder 360 degrees and tilt it forwards and back. Would recommend this product for those who can withstand the wobble that comes with it.
