Spigen Universal Kickstand Vertical Horizontal Stand Adjustable Angle Compatible with iPhone 16/16 Plus/16 Pro/16 Pro Max, iPhone 15/14/13/12 Series, Samsung Galaxy S23/S22/S21 and More - Black

This is a very useful and sleek looking kickstand that can be applied to anything that requires a kickstand, not just your smartphones. You will be able to use this is on your smaller sized tablets as well, although positioning will be critical to avoid it from either tipping backwards or having a poor viewing angle.However, it works perfectly well on smartphones. As you can see in the pictures, I am using it on my LG V20 phone, which is a significantly big phone (for those wondering, it's just a sliver bit taller and wider than an iPhone 7 Plus). I attached the kickstand onto the Spigen Rugged Armor case, which has a lightly texturized rubber body. The adhesive on the Spigen Kickstand performs very well and has not shown signs of peeling off or weakening over time. I place my phone in my back pocket and occasionally the kickstand will catch as I pull the phone out, and it hasn't shown any sign of peeling off.The kickstand is made of high grade metal (not aluminum) with very nice and clean finish to it that seems pretty durable to wear and tear. I've used it for a few days now, placing it on various non rough surfaces and I haven't noticed any scratches or dings to it. The magnet is powerful enough to snap the kickstand back into place but at the same time allows you to flick open the kickstand without too much effort. The spring loaded kickstand works flawlessly.The size of the kickstand is just perfect, big enough to support the phone with great stability (depends where you adhere the kickstand of course) but small and thin enough that it doesn't bother when you put it in your pocket or hold it in your hand. One thing cool too is that you can orient it any way you want to accommodate your needs. As you can see in the pictures, I had it upside down (Spigen writing upside down) so that the kickstand swings out to the right. The reason was because the volume control for the V20 is on the left side of the phone, and this allows me to have the volume buttons facing upwards when you use the kickstand. Many cases with integrated kickstand failed to realize this and end up having the buttons facing down and makes it useless.Now, as any product goes, there's a few of cons that I wish there is a way to address, but it doesn't make the product any less better. This is still a 5 star product.The kickstand despite having a good size, is also just somewhat thick enough that now your phone won't lay flat on any surface (for obvious reasons). Not a deal breaker, but if you expect a nice clean smooth back on your phone, then you are better off getting a case with integrated kickstand.Spigen should have developed it so that the notch in which you put your fingernail in to flick open the kickstand is on both sides of the kickstand base. Right now, with the way I position the kickstand, the notch is oriented upwards and is kind of inconvenient at times. Had it been on both sides, you would be able to use any hand or finger to flick open the kickstand. That or the notch should have been at the end of the kickstand.

Super small but amazingly functional without giving up the case I love on my Note 20+ ultra for a case with a cheapie kickstand, it's about 1/4" wide and about 2" long by 1/16th high roughly and has tapered and round corners so it won't catch on say a pocket or anything and simply makes any case without a kickstand a kickstand case. Hardly noticeable and adhesion is very good. It's got a strong magnet that holds it osed and keeps if from opening when not wanted but not so strong it's cumbersome to open either. I just ordered a couple more for a few things to stick to that are on my desk, one being an old antique picture frame that the little wooden stand on back broke off of and the other a small desk clock that had a similar stand that became un-rivited. There's many uses for this lil guy so consider that it's not simy just for a phone.It's PROBABLY too small for an iPad but you could buy 2 and it's work great but probably only on the iPad mini or air. The pro would be too top heavy for these small kickstands but there you have it. Multiple use definitely. Highly recommend considering I e for your phone if you have a case you love but doesn't have a kickstand at all or want to have a kickstand for your phone but not put a case on it. Pretty clever and very well .ade for what it is get a couple you'll find a use. There's a tiny void in the "housing" you can barely get your fingernail under so it's easy to swing away and use but again, hold firmly shut when not needed 5/5 stars on all categories! A+++ definitely.

When I found this kickstand I was thrilled because it was exactly what I needed. I have an iPhone 7 Plus and this little add on was perfect for adding a way to watch videos. When I received it I was pleased with the packaging, a simple plastic bag with the kickstand and an extra adhesive which is welcomed. I have a Rhinoshield bumper in my phone and I thought the kickstand would be flush with the bumper since it is thick, but it still stands out a little bit. It's not a big deal at all though. The kickstand is very well built but I can see why people think it is flimsy, it is very thin and the spring to open it feels extremely fragile. I have used it for a little over a week and haven't had any issues, although I am still wary it will break unexpectedly.My only real issue is that even though I placed it perfectly straight, since the bottom end is round,the phone doesn't stay flat against the table. Admittedly I placed it in the bottom of the phone so while in portrait mode the kickstand is on the far right of the device. However, I think that this shouldn't happen since this in my opinion is the best place to adhere the kickstand. Also Spigen sells cases that have the kickstand built in and it comes right in the same place so it should sit flat against the table.Other than this it is a great and mostly discreet gadget, especially for the price since it adds a lot of funcionality to any case you already have.
