The XILETU Smartphone Holder 360 Rotation Arca Plateis a durable and versatile mobile shooting platform for your smartphone. Made from black anodized aircraft-grade aluminum, this mount can handle the rigors of outdoor shooting. The mount consists of a phone clamp attached to a tripod bracket via a 360° ball head. A bracket that doubles as a desktop stand thanks to a fold-out foot. With dual locking knobs, inserting, removing, and adjusting your smartphone is quick and stress-free, and there are plenty of mounting points to add accessories to enhance your images and videos.

For 2.4 to 3.9" Wide Smartphones    360° Rotation & 135° Tilt    Cutouts for 3-Way 90° Positioning    Use as a Desktop Stand via Flip-Out Foot    Arca Base with 1/4"-20 & 3/8"-16 Mounts    Dual Locking Knobs for Fine Adjustment    2 x Rear 1/4"-20 Mounts on Bracket/Stand    1 x 1/4"-20 Mount on Phone Clamp    1 x Cold Shoe on Phone Clamp    Black Anodized Aircraft-Grade Aluminum

The base of the bracket/stand can attach to Arca-type quick release plates or standard tripods via 1/4"-20 and 3/8" threaded connectors.

To insert your phone, simply loosen the rear locking knob on the phone clamp and pull it open. The clamp can accommodate phones from 2.4 to 3.9" in width. On one end of the clamp is another knob for fine adjustment in securing your phone.

The large knob on the back of the bracket/stand loosens the ball head that links it with the phone clamp. Once loosened, you can rotate the phone 360° and tilt it 135°. Additional adjustment comes from three cutouts in the ball head's housing which let you position your phone at a 90° angle to the left, right, and up.

XILETU made sure that you could add optional accessories that can help you improve the quality of your images and videos. On one end of the phone clamp is a cold shoe adapter, and the other end gives you a 1/4" threaded connector built right into the fine adjustment knob. Use them both to add a microphone, LED light, or extension arm for even more add-ons. In addition, the base of the bracket/stand gives you two 1/4" threaded connectors.
