I know MagSafe has been around for a while now, but I only recently crossed into the promised land. And yeah, I’m a little late. If you're already using it every day, feel free to shake your head. But if not, here’s the gist: it's a magnetic ring hidden inside the back of your iPhone (12 or newer) that lets you snap on compatible accessories. Wallets, chargers, mounts, even tripods.
It was a tripod that finally got me.
The CAMOLO Foldable Magnetic Tripod quietly solved a bunch of everyday annoyances. No more balancing my phone on a stack of books for FaceTime calls. No more clunky cradle-style mounts that block the mic or rattle every time I tap the screen. This thing just works.
It’s made of solid aluminum with a clean space-grey finish. It folds up small, so it disappears into your bag, but it feels serious in your hand. Not heavy for no reason, but not flimsy either. It has that just-right heft - like it could take a few knocks in your EDC bag and still be ready to hold your phone steady. Honestly, you want a little weight in something you’re trusting to hold your phone anyway.
It also has a couple of slick hinge points that let you position your phone at nearly any angle, without the hardware getting in the way. Plus, the little silicon feet mean it stays put and doesn't scratch your desk, countertop, or whatever surface you're working with.
The magnets just make the whole thing seamless. You just snap your phone on and rotate it into portrait or landscape. Done. No springs, no clamps, no awkward adjustments. It's a tool I didn’t know I needed, and now I use it constantly.
