![[Updated Solid Version] OMOTON Desktop Cell Phone Stand Tablet Stand, Advanced 4mm Thickness Aluminum Stand Holder for Mobile Phone and Tablet (Up to 10.1 inch), Grey](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/419o6YMSCML.jpg)
Really love this stand. Its simple and does what it's intended to do and that's hold my cell phone. I decided to add a little rubber grommet into the round hole in the back of the stand that my charging cable goes through (see photos). It keeps the cable from sliding through the stand and onto the floor when it's not plugged into the phone. Thinking about buying another stand for my iPad in the future.
I use these stands in my office, bedroom, and kitchen. They not only look great, they also make it easier to view your phone for when you get text messages, emails, face-time and watch videos.
My order arrived quickly. The stand is packaged in a box to protect from any transit damage, and are housed in a plastic bag for further protection. The stands are relatively heavy and are constructed to be stable. They have a good size bottom to keep the phone in place and balanced. The stands are sturdy, they do not wobble and holds my 7 plus in place. There is a thick non-slip large pad at the bottom of the stand, another thick non-slip medium size pad at the front of the stand so that your phone keeps in place, as well as two smaller thick non-slip pads on the inside part of the stand so that your phone sits on the rubber stands, and not directly on the metal.
I have the rose version on my bedside table. It makes it easier to charge my 7 plus, and for when I get text messages I do not have to pick up the phone, all I have to do is to turn my head. It is also much easier to reach across and to tap the screen for turning off the alarm, rather than having to pick the phone up. I know this may sound very little to do, but you will be surprised how much little things make a difference.
I have the silver version on my office desk (silver to match my iMac). I sit my phone on the stand, it does not get lost under papers, and when the phone rings, it is easy to glance at the screen to see who the caller is, and I answer it through speaker mode. I also find it easier to monitor alerts for new emails and text messages for when I am using other programs on my iMac.
My third version is dark gray, and I use the stand in my kitchen. It keeps my phone in one place, so I do not have to look for it. It is easy to charge the phone on the stand. I do a lot of face-time with my family and like to cook so having the phone elevated and at an angle makes it easier to read recipes or watch videos on how to make food on the screen.
The only thing these stands were missing to make the design even better are rubber grommets to keep the cord in place. This was an easy fix; I just went to my local hardware store with one of the stands, so I made sure I got the right size.
I am very happy with the stand, so much so, I purchased 3 of them to be used around our home. Highly recommended. They are a great price, and worth every penny! I have taken many images, but the reason I have not taken an image of the phone on the stand is because I was using the phone to take the images :)
I hope that you have found my opinion to be helpful with your decision process to purchase this item. If this is the case, and where Amazon asks if this review helpful, please click "yes." Thank you!
Pros:
- high quality materials (since I keep this on my night stand it is now my go to as a self defense defense. One throw of this heavy metal stand and a burglar will regret ever breaking into the home of such an avid amazon purchaser)
- Tablet option on back is great
- Both options hold phone or tablet securely with no concerns about tipping or dropping
Cons:
- not great for FaceTime or picture angles
- limited angles and adjustment flexibility
- would imagine that while this is a great stationary object (and secondary self defense tool, that it would be a bit of pain to toss in a Bag and travel, due to the awkward shape.
Final Thoughts:
I personally bought this to make my long distance chats with my fiancée until may more bearable. While it’s a great phone stand when I’m sitting down she gets a very steep upward angle and if I’m at desk level she can only see about my eyes upward.
As just a phone holder it’s great but if you want it to make chats with your significant other or cat easier do yourself a favor and get one with an adjustable angle option instead.
Very good & sturdy stand with a couple of minor but annoying issues. First, the stand does a good job of not moving forward or backward, or even side to side. However, it will spin on it's axis, if you have a cord pulling to one side. It's minor thing and a little extra weight or adjusting the cord will correct the issue most of the time. The second minor issue is that for my USB C devices (Google Pixel & Nexus 5x) the cable connectors are a little longer than micro USB connectors and don't fit while the phone is vertical in the stand. Other USB C cables might work better. My micro USB cables seem to work fine. Little better footings and adjusting the angle a bit to provide a little more room for the cables and this would be the perfect stand.
I bought these on a whim and glad I did. They are solid, adjustable, hold an iPad, other tablet or a phone and make it so much easier to watch shows, you tube, browse the internet, shop or read. I can monitor my security cams from my desk on a tablet or phone, or use it to hold the tablet or phone when watching an instructional video or following a recipe on YouTube. They hold your device steady and solid. I don't have to worry about my device sliding or falling and it's easy to adjust. Because it's raised, you can also charge you phone while using it, is you have a charging port on the bottom. I mention this because I bought another brand that isn't adjustable like this one. I have a large phone with a 6 inch screen and no problem with it fitting this stand.

OMOTON, Better than you want!
Awesome! Bought one for the office and one for the night stand. I use it for my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (no case) and my T-Mobile LG G Pad X 8.0 (with a rugged case). Holds each perfectly in both portrait and landscape. No issues with vertical clearance for the power cord, and I use braided cords with minimal flex. Completely stable when holding my devices even when I'm tapping or swiping the screen. Excellent product!
This is ADORABLE; I bought this for my office and am planning to get another one for my home. The quality is even higher than I expected for the price (unsurprising given the universally good reviews) - it's a substantial chunk of metal with plenty of room in the perch for an iPhone in a chunky Otterbox Defender case. The rose gold color is absolutely gorgeous and the resistance pads seem to work very well (I have not max-tested them). Overall, it's just a really elegant design, and I'm impressed by the execution.
Fair warning: when the phone is in a vertical position, as seen in the product pic, the headphone jack on an iPhone 6 is blocked. This is not a dealbreaker for me - I can easily rotate my phone to the horizontal position, but it is something I didn't think about before buying this Obviously a non-issue for the newer phones or for Bluetooth headphone users.
PERFECT! This stand allows my cell phone (with cover) and 7" Kindle to easily sit in it. A real plus is being able to place my phone in the stand while it's charging, because many do not. The stand has my phone/Kindle sitting 2" off the desk and the lip that hold my devices in place is 5/8" wide at the base and angles out 3/4" at the top. The lip is actually 5/16" in height, keep both devices in place. The stand has a rubber texture applied on the base of the stand and within it resisting the stand or devices to slide. This is a great stand at a great price.
OMOTON Desktop Cell Phone Stand Tablet Stand, Advanced 4mm Thickness Aluminum Stand Holder for Mobile Phone...This stand is pretty great. I use it with an iPhone 6. Fits well, and I could imagine a larger or a smaller device working just as well. One feature that would make it near-perfect, is making it adjustable as to the angle the device sits at. But I would imagine that is available on other stands. I purchased this one knowing it wasn’t adjustable. This was my first stand purchase, so I had no idea what features would be important to me. But that aside, I really like this stand. I love the red I chose, and the thoughtful features like the cable slots. Tho, the non-skid pad could stand to be updated to something that does the job a little better
Love this phone stand. It's a very solid piece of metal, so it doesn't bow under the weight of my phone (14.5 oz. with the case on. Yes, I weighed it. For comparison, my last phone was a Samsung Galaxy S5 Active with an HD case that weighed 8.4 oz.). It fits my Huawei Mate 9 phone with its super heavy duty, shockproof, screwed-on case with room to spare, and is a good angle to prop up my phone to follow a recipe when I'm cooking. I also use it to prop up my heavy phone when I'm working so I can glance over to see if a notification was urgent without having to stop what I'm doing to pick up/tilt the phone, and when I'm following a workout app on my phone. Steady base, too, that sits flat. There's no wobble with or without my phone on it, and it's stable, so it doesn't feel like it's delicately balanced and will flip if I bump it by accident. I also like that it has grip pads on the flat part that the phone leans against and on the hooks where my phone sits. I ordered a second one, so I don't have to move it between my office and kitchen.
