Box Contains Manfrotto Universal Smartphone Clamp with 1/4 thread connections - MCLAMP Review: lighweight and easy to use - I purchased the Manfrotto Smartphone Clamp to film short work videos using my tripod in a static open-plan office setup. The unit arrived well packaged and undamaged. Once opened, I did a test fit and it connected perfectly to my Manfrotto Mini Ball Tripod Head with RC2 Quick Release Plate, confirming it would work seamlessly with my tripod. It grips a phone securely β€” I tested it both with and without a case on my iPhone 13 Pro Max β€” and at no point did it feel unsecure or like the phone might fall. It is easy to use and lightweight, so no problem to carry in a kit bag. In my use case β€” static indoor filming in a professional environment β€” I have not found any limitations with this product so far. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality, reliable phone holder as part of a professional setup. Review: Surprisingly useful - Works remarkably well, and is easy to use. I'd bought it on a whim, but it's been earning its place in the little side pocket of the bag that carries my Manfrotto compact travel monopod. It can be fitted in seconds, and provides a stable platform for a phone camera. That's proved surprising useful, especially as one generally doesn't know the shutter speed that a phone camera is using. I also found it useful when taking panoramic shots, as it's much easier to hold the camera stable and follow any tracking guidelines in a panoramic stitching app. The phone is held securely in an extensible spring-loaded clamp. There's a standard threaded bush at the bottom , and a second at the back, allowing a choice of orientations on a tripod or monopod. The Manfrotto Smartphone Clamp easily carries my iPhone SE, even when it's fitted in its i-Blason case. I've also found it useful when using my phone camera to take pictures through a microscope, by mounting the Clamp on a tabletop tripod then using that to hold the lens squarely over the eyepiece, without wobbling. Photographs taken this way are surprisingly effective. Super little gadget. I love it. ## Features - 100 percent SAFE: The silicone rubber pads guarantee an entirely secure grip - UNIVERSAL: Compatible with any smartphone up to 8.4 cm (3.2 Inch) wide - FULL COMPATIBILITY: Designed to attach your smartphone to a tripod or camera mount when shooting stills and videos - VERSATILE: The universal clamp can double as a stable table base for your smartphone, thanks to the self-standing bracket on its back - FREEDOM OF CREATION: The universal clamp is ideal for capturing group photos, self-portraits and for general hands-free operation ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0169SORDW | | Aspect Ratio | 16:9 | | Audio Recording | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 101 in Mobile Phone Tripods | | Box Contents | 1 x MCLAMP | | Brand | Manfrotto | | Brand Name | Manfrotto | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Compatible with any smartphone up to 8.4 cm (3.2 Inch) wide | | Compatible devices | Compatible with any smartphone up to 8.4 cm (3.2 Inch) wide | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 10,681 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Silicone | | File Format | MP4 | | Folded size | dimensioni compatte | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00719821396352, 08024221651577 | | Has Self-Timer | No | | Head Type | Fixed | | Item Length | 25 Centimetres | | Item Weight | 27 Grams | | Item weight | 27 Grams | | Manufacturer | Manfrotto | | Manufacturer Part Number | MCLAMP | | Material | Silicone | | Maximum Height | 10.8 Centimetres | | Maximum Weight Capacity | 1 Kilograms | | Media Type | ProductImage | | Model Name | universal | | Model Number | MCLAMP | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Product Features | Adjustable | | Screen Size | 4 Inches | | Special feature | Adjustable | | UPC | 719821396352 | | Video Capture Format | MP4 | | Video Capture Resolution | 1920 x 1080 | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Manfrotto - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** Compatible with any smartphone up to 8.4 cm (3.2 Inch) wide - **Item weight:** 27 Grams - **Material:** Silicone - **Maximum height:** 10.8 Centimetres - **Model name:** universal - **Special feature:** Adjustable - **Tripod head type:** Fixed - **Weight limit:** 1 Kilograms ## Images ![MCLAMP, Universal Smartphone Clamp with Thread Connections, for iPhone with or without Case, Foldable, Compact Size, Vlogging, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61H62dCy3ZL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this fit for iPhone XR** A: Should fit an XR. I use it with an iPhone 7 and there is about 12-13mm more expansion possible. XR is only 7mmm larger than a 7. Fit is secure, and I wouldn't worry about it falling out **Q: What is this made from? Is it metal or plastic?** A: Plastic. Its very similar bordering on identical to other (cheaper) grips you can get on Amazon. Its absolutely fine and works as expected. **Q: Will this work on a galaxy note 3?** A: Hi Pezzer41According to the Samsung website the dimensions of the Galaxy Note 3 are H151.2 x W79.2 x D8.3mm (H15.1 x W7.92 x D0.83cm), the Manfrotto Smartphone Clamp supports phones up to 8.4cm in width so it shouldn't be a problem unless you have very bulky case on it which may make it a tight fit. I have an LG G4 with a snapcase on that is 8cm wide and it fits very nicely.Alternatively you could also look at the Joby GripTight XL Mount for smartphones which supports phone from 6.9cm - 9.9cm. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Joby-GripTight-XL-Mount-Smartphone/dp/B00M9BJ4TG/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1457266660&sr=1-1&keywords=joby+xl+mountHope this helps **Q: It’s possible to mount an external mic?** A: You can’t with this Manfrotto universal clamp. You need the newer one: Manfrotto Universal Smartphone Clamp, Pro Version (MCPIXI) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07K6GHL24/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_-pt0EbKKTT7VN I have used my RØDE videomicro mic with it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ lighweight and easy to use *by S***N on 22 May 2026* I purchased the Manfrotto Smartphone Clamp to film short work videos using my tripod in a static open-plan office setup.

Feels well made, with two exceptions: The back features a tiny kick-stand that allows this device to act as a little stand. The 'leg' that pops out is incredibly flimsy, and barely has the strength to hold up an iPhone 5s (the smallest). I purchased this to go with a tripod, so it didn't ruin the product for me, but when paying a premium I'd much rather have a feature that works, or not have it at all. The red pads are either poorly manufactured, or low quality as one side is thinner than the other by about 1mm. The difference is small, but it means every photo I have needs to be rotated by about 2 degrees to be perfect. ## Frequently Bought Together - Manfrotto Universal Clamp with 1/4 Thread Connections for Up to 3.2" Smartphones - SmallRig 1/4" Camera Hot Shoe Mount, Ballhead Tripod with Additional 1/4" Screw, 2pcs Pack - 2059 - ULANZI MT-16 Extendable Mini Camera Tripod, 4 Levels Adjustment 360Β° Ball Head Cold Shoe Lightweight Portable Vlog Travel Selfie Stick Handle Grip Desktop Webcam Tripod for DSLR Action Camera --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/47935703-mclamp-universal-smartphone-clamp-with-thread-connections-for-iphone-without](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/47935703-mclamp-universal-smartphone-clamp-with-thread-connections-for-iphone-without) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-08-15*
