ULANZI ST-14

Ulanzi created a great product, especially with it being metal instead of plastic. It's a solid and sturdy product that can be used alone or in various other scenarios such as attached on a tripod, on a camera rig, a boom arm, etc thanks to it's versatility. The 1/4 thread option makes the mount compatible with other products. To use this alone, there is a small piece that slides out and inserts into the base for more stability. The piece is magnetic and held in place very well. The mount can hold phones of many different screen sizes as it has the ability to unlock an extension if necessary. It's easy to use as the extension has a switch with the lock symbol on one side and unlock on the other. There is a knob on the opposite side of the extension that allows for expanding and contracting the jaws. There is another knob on the back of the mount that allows for adjusting the angle. While this is a great feature, especially if this mount is attached to a tripod or something similar, it can tip over if it's used alone depending on the angle. I've had this product for a couple of years and the only minor issue that occurred was the magnet for the supporting piece only recently fell out. I did find it and I believe it can be put back in place using glue, but I haven't tried.

You can see and feel the quality of this product from the moment you take it out of the box. It’s 100% aluminum, nothing here is plastic. It’s seems very durable, sleek and functioning product. It looks and feels like a high end product that’s made in Italy. Clamps on smartphones with ease and has a ball head that makes rotation positioning very simple and quick. Also comes with a magnetic hidden desk top support leg that can hold a heavy smartphone in place without tipping over. I have it mounted on a Ulanzi MT-24 tripod (sold separately) and it’s a perfect combination of form and function. I will definitely highly recommend this clamp to anyone who’s looking for a well made, durable and clean looking design. See attached pics, last one is with the tripod I mentioned (sold separately).

The ULANZI ST 14 has become an indispensable tool in my mobile photography setup. The mini tripod is great and the overall quality feels excellent thanks to its all metal construction. It feels solid and sturdy in hand and inspires confidence right away. I have been using it with an S25 Ultra and it holds the phone securely without wobble. Ulanzi did a great job designing this to be flexible in many scenarios. It works well on its own as a compact mini tripod, but it also shines when attached to a full size tripod, camera rig, or boom arm using the standard one quarter thread. The cold shoe is a very useful addition, making it easy to add a microphone or LED light for video or content creation. The adjustable clamp is easy to use and supports a wide range of phone sizes. Unlocking the extension is simple, and the side knob allows precise tightening of the jaws. The rubberized grip holds the phone firmly in place. The rear knob allows for smooth angle adjustments, and the full rotation makes switching between portrait and landscape effortless. When used standalone, the small support piece that slides into the base adds stability and is held securely by a magnet. At extreme angles it can tip over, which is expected for a compact setup like this. After long term use, the only minor issue I have seen is the magnet for the support piece eventually coming loose, something that looks easily fixable with glue. Overall this is a well built, versatile, and thoughtfully designed mount that works great for mobile photography and video. It is compact, portable, and a great value for the quality you get.

This mount was superior to others I have used. It is solidly made and grips my Galaxy Ultra and case firmly. I would definitely buy it again.

This is professional grade. The quality is top notch. Came in really nice packaging and everything is great. PROS: Quality materials, Perfect fit and finish, Looks amazing, Nice Packaging, no scratches or defects, Works as Advertised, Padded to protect your phone Cons: Mount blocks your screen making it almost impossible to take a photo that way. Was not an issue for me since I also purchased a remote photo switch at the same time. I have a Samsung Galaxy which has a 5.83 inch screen and it barely holds on to it. So if you hate giant phones like me and have a narrow phone then I highly suggest putting it in a case so that it grips better. To be fair it hasn't fallen out of the mount but I can only tighten to the minimum pressure I would feel is adequate. I believe my phone came with a free case, so I will check the box. If your phone is over 6 inches I'm sure this won't be an issue for you. Overall very happy with my purchase. If I had to do it over I would buy the same thing.

Rugged all-metal construction. Easily adjusted width to accommodate any cell phone. Caveat: some phone cases may interfere with this grip.
