Every iPhone user has tried to prop their phone up against a cup, saltshaker, or similar, just to have it slide down onto the table. Frustrating, but phones are meant to be held or lay flat on a table or desk. But the iPhone 12-15 have a secret feature: MagSafe. That's why the Magtame MagSafe Magnetic Phone Grip and Stand is so sweet: it just snaps onto that magnet and works great. When you're done, just pry it off. Easy. Tech expert Dave Taylor checks out the Magtame phone stand and charger, with lots of closeups.

out there sheesh Dave Taylor here and
0:17
I'm looking at my iPhone and being a
0:20
little frustrated that like so many
0:22
other times I can't get it at the angle
0:25
I want without it just sliding off
0:28
because the phone is not designed to
0:31
stand at different angles or even to
0:33
stand sideways right you've done this
0:35
before just to have it fall down super
0:38
frustrating so the solution is to get a
0:41
phone stand but you don't want to carry
0:43
something big and clunky enter this this
0:47
is the mag tame magsafe magnetic phone
0:51
grip and it's really a great idea
0:53
because this goes and connects with the
0:57
mag safe on the back of Apple iPhones
1:00
now the mag safe is built into the
1:03
iPhone 12 through 15 and if you don't
1:07
have one of those then you can still use
1:09
this there's a little ring that they
1:11
include that you can adhere to the back
1:13
of your phone or phone case now how does
1:16
it work well I'll show you it's easy as
1:20
that and now you can see it really
1:22
doesn't add much thickness to my phone
1:25
but number one I can tilt up the little
1:28
foot and now I have this which a lot of
1:31
people like this is very helpful but
1:34
much more to my speed is it's a stand so
1:38
now finally I don't need to use my cup
1:41
or anything I can just put it at
1:42
whatever angle I want and it even
1:46
rotates so if I want I can actually do
1:49
it like this and really just fine-tune
1:53
that angle to get it just so really
1:56
helpful now you're going to need some
1:57
close-ups so I'm going to give you those
1:59
but it's a 3in1
2:01
multifunction with 360° of rotation and
2:06
it's an adjustable arm and adjustable
2:09
strap and you can snap it on and off let
2:13
me show you that this is pretty cool so
2:15
all you have to do is just sort of pick
2:16
it up at an angle and it comes right off
2:19
there's no residue nothing stuck to the
2:22
phone or anything so I really really
2:25
appreciate that comes in multiple colors
2:28
they sent me Silver
2:30
and black they are 100% identical it's
2:34
just pick your favorite color actually
2:36
also comes in pink and cyan really wish
2:40
they would have sent me pink and cyan
2:42
instead These are nice but they're kind
2:44
of humdrum colors right so having
2:46
something colorful great Improvement so
2:50
that's really everything I mean this is
2:52
a really simple device and you don't
2:55
have to tilt the lower portion if you
2:57
don't want to so you can just do it like
2:59
this and and generally I do tilt it
3:01
because it does make it more stable so
3:04
then you can even tilt it like that and
3:07
it's pretty darn stable I've been using
3:09
this over the last couple of days and
3:11
what's really great about it is that
3:14
with that magnetic ring that's included
3:17
you can actually use it on a wide
3:19
variety of devices including something
3:21
like an iPad or a competitors's tablet
3:24
as the case may be or even something
3:26
like a Kindle or something right so you
3:29
know this is mag safe but with what's in
3:32
the box let me show you that let me just
3:35
open one of these up and so with the
3:37
ring the adhere adhesive ring that's in
3:40
the Box you can really put it on any
3:43
device oops I think I opened the wrong
3:45
box let's try it again with this box
3:50
this one should open up there we go so
3:53
here's what I'm talking about so it has
3:55
these rings and one side of the ring is
3:59
adhesive so you basically take the cover
4:02
off put it on the back of your phone or
4:05
a phone case I'd kind of recommend a
4:07
phone case so you don't actually have to
4:09
have it forever on your phone though it
4:11
is remarkably slim but once that's on
4:15
whatever device you want to put it on
4:17
then it's going to adhere really well
4:20
I'm shouldn't even say adhere it's going
4:21
to stick really well cuz it's a magnet
4:25
and that might have been a mistake I'm
4:26
not sure I'm going to get that off
4:28
anyway we'll use this this for the rest
4:30
of the demo so it all works really well
4:34
and I want to show you that if you have
4:35
a MAG safe case and this is a spec mag
4:39
safe case I have for my iPhone 15 Pro so
4:43
what that means is it repeats that
4:45
magnetic portion and sure enough it
4:49
works just as well with my case as it
4:52
does with my phone without a case so as
4:54
long as you make sure you have a MAG
4:56
safe case you are all set and it's
5:00
really very welld designed I really like
5:03
it cuz it's tough and it has a hinge
5:06
that actually has some resistance so I
5:08
feel like at any angle that I put it
5:10
it's not going to just slide all the way
5:12
out or something so I can do it that's
5:14
my maximum um angle and it just feels
5:19
super stable like that it's not going to
5:21
fall over and of course what a huge
5:23
Improvement to do that instead of
5:25
putting it against the cup and then
5:26
trying to figure out what I can put here
5:28
to stop it from slid in hoping that my
5:30
cup doesn't slide in the other direction
5:32
so been there done that did not enjoy it
5:36
so really simple elegant affordable
5:39
design and a great solution for a whole
5:42
lot of people definitely wanted to check
