These magnetic phone mounts are designed as cold shoe accessories that hold iPhones securely. They include a magnetic holder that accommodates iPhone models 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, and 12. The mount offers full 360° rotation so the phone can be positioned for portrait or landscape photography.
Key Features
They fit standard cold shoe mounts found on cameras, tripods, cages, and stabilizers. This allows for versatile mounting options. The magnetic attachment keeps the phone in place during movement. The product has received ClimatePartner certification, indicating responsible environmental handling.
Installation and Mounting Options
The mount is engineered to attach directly to a cold shoe. It can be clipped onto a camera body, tripod, cage, or stabilizer that has a cold shoe interface. Once attached, the magnetic holder secures the phone. The design does not interfere with existing camera controls or other accessories.
Usage Scenarios
For photographers who use handheld or stabilized equipment, these mounts provide a convenient way to keep an iPhone within reach. The magnetic connection allows quick release and repositioning. The 360° rotation means the phone can be oriented for selfie-style shots, video recordings, or to match the camera’s framing.
Environmental Certification
The product’s ClimatePartner certification reflects a commitment to reduce carbon emissions in the supply chain. This certification indicates that the manufacturer has met specific environmental standards.
Design and Build
The mount’s construction uses metal components to support the magnetic holder and to interface with the cold shoe. The magnetic element is positioned so the phone is held firmly but can be released by the user. No additional accessories or mounting hardware are required.

Considerations for Use
When attaching the mount to a cold shoe, ensure that the cold shoe surface is clean to maintain magnetic contact. The magnetic force should hold the phone during normal handheld use but can be disengaged by lifting the phone from the magnetic surface.
Maintenance
Routine cleaning of the magnetic surface helps preserve the holding strength. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the magnetic element or the metal frame. Store the mount in a dry environment when not in use to prevent corrosion.
Warranty and Support
