A phone tripod is a stand designed to hold your smartphone steady. The great thing is, almost any standard tripod can be adapted for phone use. Many tripods allow you to attach a phone holder, which easily transforms it into the perfect stand for your mobile. A good example of a phone holder for a tripod is the premium phone holder from MOJOGEAR. This holder features a 1/4" connection, which is the standard size for tripods, making it universally compatible for turning your tripod into a phone tripod.
What’s the real advantage of using a tripod when taking photos or videos with your phone? The biggest benefit is achieving sharper, more stable shots. When you're filming handheld, you naturally create a lot of small, unwanted movements, which can result in blurry footage. You obviously want to avoid this, and a phone tripod is a simple solution to the problem.
Another plus is that you no longer have to hold your phone. This can be a real lifesaver when you're filming for long periods, as holding your phone steady can become tiring. A phone tripod also lets you film from creative angles. Some MOJOGEAR phone tripods have a maximum working height of up to 179 cm, giving you plenty of options.
Finally, a phone tripod makes it much easier to get yourself in the frame. You can simply set up your smartphone on the tripod and point it where you plan to stand or sit. You can even pair your phone tripod with a Bluetooth remote, allowing you to control your smartphone from a distance. This saves a lot of running back and forth.
When you're looking for a tripod for your smartphone, there are many different options to choose from. Phone tripods come in all shapes, sizes, and designs. In the MOJOGEAR range, we have flexible, rigid, mini, and large phone tripods. Each of these mobile phone tripods serves a different purpose, so it's important to choose the right one for the job. Below, we'll explain which tripod is best for which situation. The large tripods are only available in a rigid form, while the mini tripods can be categorised as either rigid or flexible.
Large phone tripods are brilliant when you need to shoot from a specific height and don't have another surface to place your camera on. These large tripods are height-adjustable, allowing you to experiment with many different perspectives. For example, the horizontal arm on the MOJOGEAR 179 cm 3-in-1 phone tripod lets you film from directly above. This is ideal if you want to record a cooking or art video.
A major advantage of these larger tripods is their higher maximum load capacity. So, if you want to use your tripod for both your phone and a proper camera, a large phone tripod makes this possible. You just need to unscrew the phone holder and attach the camera. The maximum load capacity of most large MOJOGEAR phone tripods is around 4 kg.
If you want to take photos or record with your phone from a table, desk, or other raised surface, a mini phone tripod can be incredibly useful. These tripods are also very compact and lightweight, making them perfect for taking with you on your travels. Within the mini tripod category, we distinguish between flexible and rigid mini tripods.
The main advantage of flexible mini tripods for phones is their bendable legs. This allows you to easily position the tripod on uneven ground. It's also possible to wrap these bendable legs around objects, such as a fence post or a tree branch. Placing a tripod here creates a unique perspective that can give your recordings a great effect. A phone holder can also be easily attached to these mini tripods. The main drawback is their lower maximum load capacity. The MOJOGEAR MG-01, for instance, has a max load of 300 grams, so it can't support most cameras. However, it can easily support the weight of an iPhone 15 Pro Max, which is 240 grams.
Rigid mini tripods are generally sturdier than their flexible counterparts. The Ulanzi MT-08, for example, has a maximum load capacity of 1200 grams. This means you could also mount a light camera on the MT-08, making rigid mini tripods suitable for both phones and smaller cameras.
Are you looking for a tripod for an iPhone? By using a phone holder like the premium one from MOJOGEAR, you can place your iPhone on virtually any tripod. This allows you to shoot stable, sharp photos with your iPhone too. The only things you need to check are that the phone holder is suitable for your iPhone and that the tripod has a 1/4" screw thread, which will let you use it as an iPhone tripod.
How you use a tripod for your phone varies depending on the type. First and foremost, you need to make sure you have a phone holder that fits on a tripod. Once you have both a phone holder and a tripod, you can screw them together.
With a large phone tripod, you'll need to extend the legs. You can usually do this by releasing the clips on the legs. Once the clips are loose, you can adjust the legs to your desired height. When you've found the right height, simply secure the clips again, and your tripod is ready to use.
For a flexible mini phone tripod, you just need to bend the legs into the position you want. With a rigid mini tripod, it's even simpler – you just need to unfold it.
When choosing a tripod holder, pay attention to how you want to secure your iPhone or smartphone. The most common locking mechanisms are either spring-loaded or a screw clamp. We also recommend checking the maximum phone width. Many holders are universal for smartphones up to 10 centimetres wide, but this isn't always the case. You also need to check how the holder mounts onto your tripod. Most phone holders for tripods have a 1/4 inch and/or 3/8 inch screw hole, allowing you to attach the holder quickly and easily. Another mounting method is Arca Swiss, for tripods with an Arca Swiss connection.
Do you want to be able to film and photograph from different angles: horizontally (landscape), vertically (portrait), or on a slant? Then choose a rotating phone holder or a phone holder with an extra 1/4 inch screw hole. Attach the phone holder to your tripod or a handle and turn your smartphone to the desired orientation. Additionally, there are phone holders that can both rotate and tilt, which is handy if you want to be able to point your smartphone up or down. Take a look at the Ulanzi ST-22, for example.
