Fits iPhone 7Plus

When I first received this product and saw how small it was, I doubted the lens diameter would be wide enough to fit both lenses on my phone. It works, but you have to carefully tinker with it to make it fit like this. With that in mind, unless you're taking selfies and using the front camera, this isn't a quick clip for this particular phone.

Pros

Pros

Cons
  • No automatic

I first tried one of these add-on lenses for my phone a few years ago and the results were so bad I vowed never to use them again. This earlier model used an adapter that attached to the phone and then various small lenses were screwed onto it. Yes, as a professional photographer, I place higher demands on any photographic device. But when I use my iPhone to take quick family or vacation photos, I'm not a photo snob. I'm surprised and pleased with the quality of photos my phone is capable of…

Pros
  • Works with laptops, tablets and phones. Compatible with iPhone, iPad, iMac and Android devices from Samsung and other manufacturers.
