I bought this product when looking for a versatile holder for a device to mostly watch videos and to play casual mobile games, fairly gentle usage. When the product arrived it fit my phone and tablet perfectly fine and had the strength to hold both without the arm bending under the weight.However, the plastic ring holding the leather sheath to the base was broken upon arrival. At the time I thought nothing of this as it did not seem to compromise the structural integrity of the arm and worked exactly how I wanted. After a few weeks of use I noticed the arm beginning to sag during a YouTube viewing and then promptly breaking. Upon inspection, the interior metal pipe had snapped completely.It is my thinking that this snapping was due to the initial separation of the plastic ring which allowed the arm near the base to bend more than it should which led to the eventual failure of the joint. After being unable to contact the seller I thought the best option would be to leave a review requesting a replacement if possible. This product was great while it lasted and I believe the only reason for the catastrophic failure was the fault out of the box and maybe if I had brought it up with the seller then this wouldn’t haveoccurred.I feel five stars would be in order for this great product if only I hadn’t received a faulty item in the beginning and would wholly recommend this as well as getting straight in contact with the seller if you also experience this issue.UPDATE -Just came home to a surprise parcel, a replacement! This one is perfect and I’m certain will last. Couldn’t be more appreciative of the goodwill of this company and great customer service, they obviously care about their customers. Would recommend 100% 👍

I made the mistake of buying a cheap one of these which looked like it did the same job.The cheap one was completely useless, the clamp at the base was not tight enough to actually hold anything. So I tried securing the base using 2 twist ties. That kept the base in place but the actual gooseneck was so bendy / soft that it would not hold the weight of my iPhone 7 Plus, and bent down towards the ground.I saw the reviews of this showing it holding a tablet and reckoned if it’s strong enough to hold a tablet, it will have no problem with an iPhone 7 Plus, or iPhone 12 Pro Max. I was right. This is well made and actually does what it’s supposed to do (as opposed to being a cheaply made useless thing meant for landfill, like my first purchase).I currently have the base attached to a very thin flimsy music stand on my keyboard, and it has no problem securely holding on.The gooseneck is strong and keeps its shape. It easily holds the weight of my heavy phone, though if I touch my phone while its in the holder, the phone wobbles. So really this is mean to hold a device in place when you’re not needing to touch it.

This product is very sturdy,strong, and flexible. It is ideal for desktop use. It holds my tablet securely, and the clamp is more than wide enough for my needs. However, for overhead use the grey flexible cable isn't long enough. I am a quadriplegic; i operate my tablet by moving my head. My head movements are tracked by the tablet's camera and translated into onscreen actions by an app. As a quadriplegic, my movement is severely restricted. When i need to move in bed i need to be repositioned by carers. This involves the carers having to clamp and reposition the stand on one side of my head then the other. As a consequence, in order to use my tablet effectively in bed, i require the clamp to be placed right on the centre on top of the headboard. From this position the flexi cable doesn't arch enough to for me to comfortably use my tablet.

Edit: Product broke after 3 months use. The white bend has snapped and now dangles from the silver arm of the holder. If you decide you really want this... DO NOT BEND IT. Fix it into ONE position, and keep it there. Unfortunately there is a fatal design flaw repeated by many here, I thought they might just be using it improperly and ordered one. While it worked great for 2 months, after that the holder started to dip on its own. 3 months in and its completely snapped and useless. I hardly moved this and tried to keep it in one position, but to take advantage of the flexibility, I did move it around and changed its position every couple of days. Still, that wasn't enough to make it last. Its disappointing because the brand of this holder have been good for me, but now with the risk of taking on this sort of product, I can no longer trust them with my money. As you can see, there is no warranty, and for such a simple product you'd think they would give you one for peace of mind. But, there is a clear reason why they haven't. This is a con if you intend to use it thinking you can constantly change the position.Unbelievable how much I struggled to balance tablets to watch them with all sorts of items and this is set up in 10 seconds. It is all connected when it arrives. You unwind the clip that attaches to a table or similar sturdy place. It is exceptionally long and the right size for almost any size of person or distance that is within touch distance. The tablet, in my case a Amazon Fire 10 HD, fits perfectly. The clamp on the tablet is perfect, no wiggle room. Doesn't damage the device or drop it when faced downwards in all angles .The one minor inconvience with these sort of devices is if you are typing on the desk you us it on it will bounce as you type keys and might annoy some people. But if I'm using the keyboard I am looking at the computer screen and not the tablet. Once you stop typing it takes.... testing now....7 seconds to stop bouncing. Of course you can readjust the long cable in a way to minimise the bouncing.You will probably have to take the tablet out of the case it uses.To add, the cable is extraordinary quality, it bends everywhere and has a lot of strength.Their is a large main cable that is flexible and strong, and at the last 10cm or so there is a more flexible cable to bend and twist much easier. The clips for the holding the tablet rotate 360 easily, and doesn't move angle like 1 degree or anything.The stress of trying to balance tablets properly is gone. Thank god. The price and this product is perfect, paying this to stop that stress and have the flexibility to point it anywhere, straight at me, about my head facing flat downwards is strong and trustworthy.It seems like it will last years, unable to tell obviously. The clips have rubber to protect the item you are clipping the base to, and the clip on the tablet.There are also little bands to stretch the tablet clips easier to take the tablet in and out easier.I am so happy. I didn't know things like this existed. I started using the folding amazon fire 10 hd cases which are now useless, they are almost and in some cases more expensive than this device. This blows it right out the order unless you like to carry it around outside and place it on tables then you might want a stand like them.
