I've bought a few magic hands but this has to be my favorite so far. It's gotten some bad reviews, but the device I have doesn't have the issues listed. The device is reliable, well-designed, and has several design features that add to its versatility. One of the brackets has a flat part that allows you to install it on an object where a round bracket may get in the way. I used it to mount a Presonus Revalator and the mount allowed me access to both the USB-C port and the mic output without having to use a series of adapters to move the mounts around. The clip adapts perfectly to round or flat surfaces and the grip. Made from a metal alloy so it won't break as easily as some other devices. There is a lot of leverage and it's in the upper mid-range for value but far outperforms the others. Exquisite details make this device worth its price. If you receive a device with some of the reported issues. Give it back, but don't let this experience stop you from replacing it because if it works, it works well.
