Portable Magnetic Side Mount, Strong Holder to Attach Your iPhone, iPad or Second Screen to Your Laptop or Desktop Computer Monitor, Expand Your MacBook with a Mobile Display

This gets the job done! I bought 3 magnets - 2 for the right side of my laptop monitor to hold up my Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, and one for the left side to hold up my phoine. Altogether, I installed 4 metal plates to my laptop so that I have the option of placing the extra monitor on the left or right side. The adhesive used on the metal plates is 3M VHB, which is the best advesive on the market, and perfect for this use case. The magnets are heavy and strong, and the adhesive is strong, After a month of usage, I can say 'so far, so good'. I ahve the following comments to add:1) The cure time of the 3M VHB adhesive at room temperature is as follows: approximately 50% of the ultimate strength will be achieved after 20 minutes, 90% after 24 hours and 100% after 72 hours. Therefore, I waited the full 72 hours before even trying to attach and use the magnets and extra monitor. You won't regret waiting 72 hours, and you will be sorry (or disappointed) if you don't wait the full 72 hours. Why would you not, after spending $30+ for each magnet.2) Don't go cheap and buy only one magnet to hold up the wait of a tablet or monitor...buy two as suggested by the seller. One magnet will constantly result in sagging and a disappointing experience.3) If you attach a Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra as your second monitor, please be aware that the magnets will cause the screen to 'blank out' if you attach the tablet in landscape 'right-side-up' orientation (meaning, the camera and buttons are on the top edge of the monitor. This was an unexpected result, however, flipping the monitor in landscape 'upside-down' orientation (camera and buttons are on the bottom) does not blank out the screen, and the screen still displays correctly...so that is what I did. The unintended consequence of mounting the tablet in this position is that the charging port is on the edge that sandwiches to the laptop, making it unavailable for charging while the tablet is mounted and in use.4) I rated this setup as 4 stars for versatality only because the setup does not allow the angle of the screen to be adjusted, but the fixed angle of the magnets gives the screen a nearly-perfect viewing angle.5) Versatality was also downgraded because the weight of the magnets and the extra screen and the cell phone causes my laptop lid to fall completely back if i tilt the laptop screen back more than just a few degress. At home, I grab any sturdy object to prop up the screen from behind if I feel I need to tilt the angle back more. Away from home, I would wish for some type of adhesive 'flap' that could attach to the back of the laptop screen and be pulled out when needed to prop up the screen, and pressed flat when not needed.All in all, I love this purchase and it has made me infinitely more productive on the road, at the library, etc.

This product absolutely works. I use it to attach a small monitor to my laptop. I rarely move my laptop, so I do not have a ton of issues. However, if you are planning to remove these magnets on a regular basis, you will have problems. The magnets are so strong it will eventually rip the adhesive metal plate off. I went ahead and used E6000 to attach the metal plates to my laptop and small monitor permanently but it has come off again at least once in the past 6 months. I just reattached it with more E6000 and I try to be very careful when I need to move my laptop. One magnet was enough for me, I lean my screen against the wall to support the extra weight of the 2nd screen and magnet.

My typical use case is connecting a KYY branded screen to my Dell laptop through one of the two USB-C ports. I had been using the stand that comes with the monitor, but wanted to try physically attaching it to my computer.Even though the screen weight was almost double the recommendation for just one mount, using the suggestion to mount it near the top so it can pivot down and rest against the laptop screen works perfectly fine.I noticed, however, that when I sit in front of my laptop, the secondary monitor attached to Hold Me Is not angled to my face and the display looks dimmer than it should. This is particularly important for me as I’m working outside in the sunlight and I need as much brightness as possible. The solution would be for me to sit in between my monitors, but the my keyboard would no longer be in front of my body. The mount needs a little bit more angle.The normal vector coming from the face of the display should be pointed to my eyes when I turn my head. I was able to manually bend the magnet mount slightly to give a better angle.Another concern I have, but haven’t had to deal with yet, is traveling with the magnet mount. I’m not sure where I should put it that would be safe and not damage other magnetically sensitive items I’ll be caring with me. For example, when I travel through an airport, I often take my wallet out and put it in my laptop bag. My ID is often outside of my wallet as it is needed to be shown to the TSA people. I’m concerned that the magnetic field strength from the rare earth metals in the mount might do something bad to the mag strip on my driver’s license or even my other credit cards.One potential solution for this, or at least to help mitigate the problem, would be to use thinner, metal plates that a user could use during transport. That should short out or shunt the flux lines and keep them from reaching out and touching critical components, like credit cards, and IDs.

Not good. I even bought two as it recommended if my monitor is bigger. It was a portable Asus monitor I put it on and even used two and would still not hold. I recommend everyone buy this instead. It's way easier.Bimo Portable Monitor Stand Holder 15.6’’,17.3’’,Tablet Stand Holder for ipad,Kindle,Heavy Duty Wider Base,Compatible with 4.7’’-17.3’’ Tablet,Smartphone,Computer Monitor(Rod Not Extend)
