NEEWER Metal Phone Tripod Mount Adapter with Arca QR Base, Cold Shoe, 360° Swivel 180° Tilt, Phone Holder Compatible with iPhone 15 Pro Max Galaxy S24

A real quality piece of kit! Made of a lightweight but robust metal alloy that's easily adjustable for a range of mobiles. I use mine for videoing Youtube and Instagram clips mounted on a standard 35mm camera tripod. Simple to twist/turn and rotate, then lock firmly into position - it holds my iphone securely. Brilliant - totally recommended. Worth paying a bit more for....

Functional and good value. Seems well made and robust.

I do like the quality of the phone grip (nice and soft to open with a separate tension lock - it doesn't feel like it will damage your phone at all). And I do like the Arca compatibility. But the rotary lock is not very strong (you can still move the phone when it is locked, and it doesn't click precisely to an exact horizontal or vertical). Not a huge problem but could be better (some of my cheaper plastic mounts are more precise). Biggest disappointment is the thumbscrew that controls the up/down angle. It's hard to reach, and even if you can tighten it fully, it doesn't grip very hard. So if you add a light to the cold shoe, the mount will slowly pivot down because it can't cope with the weight.

I lost the phone holder for my ringlight so messaged the seller and they recommended this product. It's really good quality and I like how the size is adjusted to fit my phone. Rather than pulling it apart like a traditional phone holder, and being injured when it snaps back into place, you turn the screw clockwise and anti-clockwise to get the correct fit for your phone.

The NEEWER Smartphone Holder (Phone Tripod Mount) is a fantastic addition to my setup. The build quality is solid, with a firm grip that holds my phone securely in place without slipping. The adjustable width fits various phone sizes, and the 360-degree rotation allows for both portrait and landscape shooting with ease. I especially appreciate the cold shoe mount on top, which makes it easy to attach accessories like a microphone or light. The mount attaches smoothly to my tripod, and the overall design feels premium for the price.

Well engineered and amazing value.

I compared with another couple of options from the same company and for my purposes of making iPhone videos from a fixed position on a sturdy tripod, this was my favourite. The controls are simple and cover all the angles needed but are only just up to the job of securing the phone in the precise position that you set it. The smallest lever especially requires a really firm setting to stop it creeping, it remains to be seen whether it lasts the course

This is a lovely items with quality. It’s heavy and you can feel it can mount your phone nicely. Unfortunately, it doesn’t fit into my camera stand. So I have returned it.
