Review on πŸ“± XShot XShot Mobile Phone Holder - Convenient Mount for Retail Packaging (Black) by Ray Richards

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Inexpensive, durable, fits fairly large phones, and has two mounting locations. Deal with it!

Now that I have a phone that can take decent photos and videos (Droid Turbo) and I usually have some kind of tripod in my car, I wanted a reliable connection for two. There are tripod adapters for the phone, this one looked a bit more solid. How is he? - Mainly plastic, but thick and hard to the touch - Inside is hard rubber - 2 tripod screw holders, both metal and nice to the touch - Opens very wide, Droid Turbo fits even in a thin case. Holds securely, although I actually wish it wasn't so tight. I wish the hooks were a bit wider so they could pop out and wrap around thick phones/cased phones. (read below) - And it's cheap! So if you look at the photo you can see the inside of the grip which hooks in which holds thin / caseless phones very well. but when the phone is thicker/has a case it can't move and you just have to grab those lips on the side of your case and everything works fine but I'm tempted to just trim that little lip as it's just hard rubber is . So it'll just be a flat connection that won't get in the way of a wide phone.
