Movo PR-1 Smartphone Grip Handle Rig with Wrist Strap, Tripod Mount and Cold Shoe Mount for Lights and Microphones - for iPhone, Samsung, HTC, LG, Google, Android

This is a mix of metal and plastic. It feels well constructed. I am a bit concerned about the size of the gripping mechanism bolt. If it fails it will probably be from that. It is comfortable to hold and easy to use. It can be adjusted to put the shutter button right under the thumb. The strap is sturdy. I gave a low score for versatility because it only goes on one way and does one function, it’s a less useful question for a device like this. It can be used left or right handed. It is a great device for taking high quality and stable pictures using a smartphone.

The media could not be loaded. The clamps adjustments is great, very secure. Unlike those spring clamps. Has cold shoe mount for mic or light, and the holes for attaching to a tripod. Also has a wrist strap for security. Overall a good product.

First of all, I need to say that I am a 74 year old man with large hands. One of my concerns was holding my iPhone and not dropping it when I take a picture, both in the vertical and horizontal positions. While it wasn't really that difficult, I wanted something easier as the large hands and slim phone was an issue that was going to happen, maybe not a lot but certainly sometimes.I was initially looking for was a pistol style grip that I could just point and shoot in both vertical and horizontal positions by just a wrist change. While I did not find the pistol style holder I looked for a device that I could adapt and this is pretty close. It fits my large iPhone with plenty of rooms to spare and I can easily reach the shutter button on the phone with my thumb. However, I also need to say that I have large hands so a person with smaller hands might have an issue reaching the button with their thumb.I did find two issues, at least for me, that I needed to overcome. The first was the hand grip on the device is very smooth. If it had a bit more texture, it would be easier to hold. Not a game changer for me as I simply tightened up the strap around my wrist. For additional stability, I added a Sunmns Camera & Tripod Adapter and just used a part of it to extend the grip as you can see from the photo. I wrap my index finger around the attachment and point and shoot.Since I am right handed I will probably use my left hand to take the pictures. With this setup, I can easily shoot in any position and can easily add a small tripod to the bottom for selfies with my wife and I. I no longer worry about losing the camera and when not in use, I simply slide the camera between my belt and shirt.By the way, I am sure that most people who are younger probably doesn't need to adapt the MOVO in this way, but I will still highly recommend the device. I find it helps me to quickly point and shoot a picture and is easy to hold. Until something else better comes along like a version with a pistol grip, this is my go to device when on vacation and out of the car knowing I will take a lot of pictures in a short period of time.Also, the quality of the device appears to be very good. I would have given it 5 stars except for the smooth handles and the need for a little extra holding position.

Great for small travel bags and quick vlogs!

Really good product and relatively compact. Quality is pretty good. Handle is weighted which is nice. The inbuilt level is really useful. The attached lanyard is useful. Nitpicking here, but if your phone is bigger, it takes a long while to unscrew the grip to fit your phone due to the small threads of the screw, just something to note. But overall a very good product and very worth it.

Congrats to MOVO. brilliantly thought out, very versatile and solid. inspires confidence. Also, the only one I found which accommodates a phone in its case; a rather big deal for most users. Myself included. Hard to find though, page 5 or 6 if I recall, glad I didn't give up at page 4. A suggestion: a grippier knob would be nice.

Bought this for an African photo safari. Held my phone very well. It was nice to have the wrist strap so I didn’t have to worry about dropping my phone on the metal floor of the safari truck.

This little device is a great idea and could be perfect with a few changes. The way the clamp is designed sets the phone out too far from the post. It would be more secure and much more comfortable to hold if the phone was flush against the post. And if it was made out of metal the bottom clamp could be much thinner which would enable your hand to sit up closer to the phone. As it is I'll be returning it and going with one from Smallrigs.
