Fits my Google P7P with its otterbox on!
I am super skiddish about taking my phone out of its case! It would be just my luck to fall as soon as I do. This makes it difficult to find a teipod mounting attachment that will fit my large phone and especially with its case on. I have a Google Pixel 7 Pro and an otterbox protective case (i think the defender series) that makes its deminsions, case included, 6-7/8"(tall) x 3-1/2"(wide) x 7-1/2"(diagonal). And this adapter, tripod mount, attachment actually fits across the width of my phone in its otterbox. The 1st and only one that i have found, in my price range, that can accommodate my phone in its case. But, even more impressive than the fact that it fits, is that my phone is secure in it! It feels very stable and has a strong grip on my phone. And even though I slip it on the bottom half of the phone (as opposed to directly in the mid section) it holds it securely and the extra weight of it being " top heavy", for lack of a better term, does not effect the stability of the grip (i put it across the bottom half of my phone in order to avoid clamping down over the volume &/or power buttons). I think the amazing grip and stability is due, in large part, because the actual padded grips themselves have an angle to them that i dont see with other brands. They come from under and up around to the front and up and over the top around to the front, not allowing for any wobble. There is no chance tht the pressure that the holder exerts on the phone will inadvertently squeeze and eject the phone out of it like other brands have done. I recomend this phone holder, tripod mount thing to anyone who wants a secure way to atrach thier phone, in a case or not, big or smaller, to a 1/4 screw type attachable accessory. U will have peace of mind and beable to focus on whatever u are doing instead of worrying about how securly attached u phone is. For me, it allows me to focus on my subject that I am taking a picture/video rearranging the subject and then taking another shot of it in a timely mannor without wasting time and energy to make sure my phone is secure and ready to go. Buy it, use it, and love it. U won't regret it!

Good for Basic Needs
The mount works! The mount grips have thick silicone lining. If your phone has a case, the combination of the mount lining and a soft case makes for a bouncy sort of hold on the phone. The phone is held in place well and it doesn’t slide out or anything, it’s just a little jiggly. I like that the mount jaws tilt inward toward the mount spine, forcing the phone into a secure crevice.The grip size adjustment mechanism is strongly spring loaded, so you have to carefully pry the grips apart to place your phone in between the grip ends. I question why there’s a lock on the grips since the spring is so stiff. Better safe than sorry, I guess. Not the easiest to place on the phone, but again, it’s secure. I would have preferred not having the spring loading and just manually adjusting and locking.This grip is relatively small (easily pocketable) and it screws into my Manfrotto tripod securely without any play. Screwing the mount in vertically (which holds the phone horizontally) presents no issues. Screwing the mount in horizontally (so phone is vertical) is a different story. The mount doesn’t extend forward enough past the tripod mount shoe to allow my phone to be held by the grips at its midpoint like in the other position. In fact, the tripod shoe prevents the mount grips from holding the phone vertically anywhere else than the very bottom, making it nearly useless for a vertical hold. It could be the fault of the tripod design, but one would assume a Manfrotto mount and tripod would work properly together. Your tripod may make this issue moot.I’ll take the trade offs above though. This mount could have mechanism play or feel cheap or have terrible material fit. It has none of those things - it feels very solid with tight action and will grip your phone well and hold it steady in a horizontal position.I should preface my comments by saying I’m not a pro photographer or even an avid hobbyist. I bought this to use my phone for videoconferencing during the pandemic quarantine plus the occasional family self portrait. For those purposes, it’s a good choice.

Reliable Brand, but Smartphone Clamp Has Durability Concerns
Reliable Brand, but Smartphone Clamp Has Durability ConcernsManfrotto is known for its quality products, and overall, I find their Universal Smartphone Clamp to be a solid accessory. The clamp has a great feature that allows you to securely lock your phone in place, which gives me peace of mind knowing that my device won’t slip out, even during more active shooting sessions. It feels sturdy when in use and provides a secure hold, making it a dependable choice for photography and videography.However, there are some concerns about the clamp’s durability. The design could be improved, as I’ve noticed that the clamp itself seems a bit fragile, and I worry that with regular use, it could easily break or snap off, especially if handled roughly. While it hasn’t happened to me yet, I can see this being a potential flaw for others who use it frequently or for those who need something that can withstand heavier usage.Overall, it’s a good product from a trusted brand, but the durability of the clamp could use some improvement to match the reliability Manfrotto is known for.
