Manfrotto Manfrotto Double Lock Clamp with Cold Shoe for Universal/Smartphones - Black (MCPIXI)

Guard your smartphone well to ensure its safety.

Excellent piece for phone clamp.

I like it because it's compact and well Made, but the spring inside of it has too much tension. Like I felt that it might leave marks on my iPhone if I use this device (though the tips are covered with rubber and it won't). I think the tension in the spiring can be made marginally lighter and it would still hold the phone well. Even the pro max models.

An absolute delight.I use a Samsung s10 with UAG plasma case.I had already tried two different clamps.The phone with case is very thick and still this one managed to clamp it in a secure way.I am using this with the Pixi Evo 2 and this is a wonderful addition to my smartphone photography gear.Highly recommended, the price is justified .. .

Got this one separately as I was not sure Tripod would fit Note 10+. And I don't regret a bit!!

compact and simple to use.

Thanks

product is very good ,Amazon's service is also very good

Resultó muy práctica para poner un teléfono celular en un tripié y grabar video. De buen material y con una protección de goma para no dañar el teléfono.

Top!

Manfrotto is a big brand name, but there's a reason for it. Their products are always high quality, and high value for the price. I'm not someone who usually buys things based on what the brand is, but usually get whatever the cheapest product with the highest reviews is. However, when it comes to camera equipment, if there's a Manfrotto product anywhere near my budget, I'll go for it over anything else because I really do feel it's high value for your money.Just one note about this particular product, there's a plastic pin under the clamp (the black plastic thing that you have to pull up in order to allow the grip to expand) which is very sharp. I sliced my finger open on it when I was trying to maneuver my phone into the clamp for the first time and almost needed stitches, so just watch out when you're using it for the first time!This clamp is generously sized - it fits my iPhone XR in Otterbox Symmetry case with 2 popsocket mounts on it (with the poptops removed). It's solid and grippy, and my phone feels very secure on it. The two 1/4" thread universal tripod attachment points allow you to use the clamp in portrait or landscape modes.

The mount works! The mount grips have thick silicone lining. If your phone has a case, the combination of the mount lining and a soft case makes for a bouncy sort of hold on the phone. The phone is held in place well and it doesn’t slide out or anything, it’s just a little jiggly. I like that the mount jaws tilt inward toward the mount spine, forcing the phone into a secure crevice.The grip size adjustment mechanism is strongly spring loaded, so you have to carefully pry the grips apart to place your phone in between the grip ends. I question why there’s a lock on the grips since the spring is so stiff. Better safe than sorry, I guess. Not the easiest to place on the phone, but again, it’s secure. I would have preferred not having the spring loading and just manually adjusting and locking.This grip is relatively small (easily pocketable) and it screws into my Manfrotto tripod securely without any play. Screwing the mount in vertically (which holds the phone horizontally) presents no issues. Screwing the mount in horizontally (so phone is vertical) is a different story. The mount doesn’t extend forward enough past the tripod mount shoe to allow my phone to be held by the grips at its midpoint like in the other position. In fact, the tripod shoe prevents the mount grips from holding the phone vertically anywhere else than the very bottom, making it nearly useless for a vertical hold. It could be the fault of the tripod design, but one would assume a Manfrotto mount and tripod would work properly together. Your tripod may make this issue moot.I’ll take the trade offs above though. This mount could have mechanism play or feel cheap or have terrible material fit. It has none of those things - it feels very solid with tight action and will grip your phone well and hold it steady in a horizontal position.I should preface my comments by saying I’m not a pro photographer or even an avid hobbyist. I bought this to use my phone for videoconferencing during the pandemic quarantine plus the occasional family self portrait. For those purposes, it’s a good choice.
