U-Rig pro

It may be difficult to see from the photos, but I have this mounted on a shoulder support that goes over one shoulder and the lower arm rests upon your belly area which makes for outstanding stability..... (Which can also be found here for sale on Amazon). The shoulder support was very hard and uncomfortable, so I attached a faux sheepskin cover and that really helped with the comfort issue. Once attached, this rig allows for amazing stability whether I am shooting live, or still shots. I would go as far to say that this has better stability and is easier to control than any of the gimbals that I have used in the past. Also, with the shoulder support, it allows me to not have to use the grip handles all of the time because I can hold onto the lower portion of the shoulder support that is lower and closer to my body and it gives me just as much control as if I am holding the grip handles....this also helps with fatigue, as it is not necessary for me to have my arms held up so high for extended periods of time. I have an iPhone in the pictures but am actually using the Galaxy note 9 for shooting. I wanted to use the galaxy for the photo review, so I couldn't do both at the same time as I was using it for the photos posted here...in the near future I will use the 1/4 inch connectors to add an led lamp, and external microphone. I will also be mounting a 3 way tripod head between the phone mount and the shoulder support to give me total flexibility with angles. I have a portable external battery backup that I can throw in my gear backpack which will charge my note 9 approximately 10 times without a recharge, so I will be able to shoot all day at outdoor concerts, events and festivals. While this setup won't be ideal for everyone, it suits my needs perfectly and I reccomend the mount for anyone that is looking for an easy way to add stability to their photo/video needs.

I’m very satisfied with this rig at its price point. It easily allows me to avoid handheld shots (as an older person that’s especially helpful). And, it fits very nicely into situations where I don’t need the benefits of a gimbal.The rig’s feature set is very adequate for ordinary smartphone videography. I don’t feel my smartphone is at risk of falling out of the rig or being damaged by the rig. I find the rig’s width to be adequate to ordinary shooting situations where typical things could be plugged into my large sub-mini-tablet smartphone.My only concern is the build quality. Part of my concern stems from the impression I had from other reviewers about the overall sturdiness of the rig. The build is lighter than I was expecting, making it a little spooky to use with anything but lightweight attachments (limiting more than I expected, for example, the type of LED lighting I’d be comfortable using). There’s more flexing within the rig than I was expecting. But I wouldn’t call the rig flimsy, either. I think the real problem is that my expectations were a little too high.More of a concern is the fit and durability of the cold shoes. Attachments fit loosely in the cold shoes, and the plastic seems not to be of uniform thickness (making the process of clamping attachments into the cold shoe feel less than positive).But I remain satisfied with my purchase, with those few caveats. Certainly the rig represents an outstanding value for nonprofessional uses and users.

I saw a recommendation for this product by Think Media and it was a great value for me. It holds my iPhone 11 perfectly without having to take it out of the case, leaves plenty of room at the end to plug in my mic and holds my phone securely. Has plenty of attachment spots for lights and mics and spots to attach it to a stand.I haven’t used it in a situation where I needed to hold it, but for the situation that I use it in, it’s perfect. I only attach a light to it, and boom my mic but it’s sturdy and balanced. I have no worries while using it.Great value for the money.

I film YouTube videos with my iPhone 13 mini, which does great except in low light situations... so I bought this primarily for the cold shoe (to mount a light on top) and in summary that has been a very useful feature for a reasonable investment in the rig, a light, and a small tripod.I do have some specific comments, though...1. The cell phone clip is a key component of this device (arguably the most important part). I find it to be an odd combination of a very strong spring and a screw to hold it in place AFTER it's already clipped in. I do not find it easy to use (even with my SMALL model of phone, in a slim case). Also, the red rubber cushions inside the clip were prone to popping out from the very beginning and (not surprisingly) one of them eventually got lost altogether. I am unclear about whether these rubber cushions are actually necessary. But I've had cell phone clips (on tripods, for example) that worked better than this.2. The rig feels good in the hands and it frees up one hand to interact with the touchscreen more easily. (But I don't find myself carrying it around for this purpose because my iPhone fits in my pocket and this rig does not). I do use it for shooting by hand in specific cases with a light in the cold shoe mount; when I know in advance that I need to put some light on my subject for a while. In general I use my Xenvo tripod (even for shooting by hand) more than I use this rig. That's not only because the tripod is easier to use and to carry around, but also because it makes a better selfie stick.3. Since I don't shoot with this rig much by hand (see above), I usually use it with a tripod (i.e., set up with a light on top). I find it to be a bit bulky perched on a tripod, so I use it with the larger of my two small tripods (a Gorilla Pod designed for a DSLR rather than a cell phone). It *might* work with my Xenvo tripod, which is built for a smaller device like a cell phone or GoPro, but I predict it would be prone to tipping over in many shooting conditions.In summary, I'm the kind of person who likes to have the smallest and simplest possible kit. I don't enjoy collecting all these accessories. But I don't regret my purchase because with the cold shoe mounts, this rig does something my other accessories don't.

As a content creator this has come in handy. The ability to mount lights, a microphone, and other accessories in combination give great versatility. It is very sturdy. I had it mounted on a tripod that was knocked over and surprisingly it didn't break. It also is good for doing motion shots as well. Great buy at the price point.

(Check out my video review above for a little more detail)It is very hard to get a 5 start review from me, however this device gets it! It is simple and gets that job done. The device is 100% metal and truly durable and will last over time. I really like the screw mechanism that allows you to open and close the holder. This allows for you to fit smaller devices like iPods and also being able to get those plus size phones into here. In my images I am using a Samsung galaxy S4 which is the same size as a iPhone 8. The tripod mount is a standard sized mount and I have had no problem with it fitting regular tripods.If you are looking for a solid holder for your mobile device this is the one for you!

Excellent mount for an iPhone or small tablet. Has three "cold" shoes to mount microphones or lights. Has 4 tripod mounting points.My only issues were 1) using an iPhone Pro model (3 lenses) with the lenses on the left side (lenses close to the center of the fixture) I can see the microphone cover when the ultra wide lens is selected. Easily addressed by flipping the iPhone over so the lenses are on the lower right, and 2) There is no place to secure wires connecting the microphone to the iPhone. I addressed that by using a velcro cable tie on the right side of the fixture to provide strain relief and keep the wires out of the way, and finally 3) the grips that hold the iPhone are well constructed and have good non-slip surfaces but are a little too small for an iPhone with a case. My iPhone has never popped out, but it could be a concern if you have a deep case.

Purchased it for my Samsung S23 Ultra doesn't fit as I expected.

We’ve been using this since it was purchased and I’ve gotta say… I am extremely impressed with it…. It’s sturdy and extremely well made… it clamps your phone extremely secure…. If I had to pick something that I didn’t like about it.. It would only be that when using an iPhone 13 pro max it can be a little tricky to get it in and out… but that’s not because of the clamp as such it’s just because the phone itself with a case is HUGE… but having said that you can still get the phone in and out… so all in all it’s still worth a buy. 😎👊🏻

Using it from last 6+ months and yeah it is good product according to me for basics it helps in various ways built quality amazing not gonna lie

I bought after seeing this on you tube, it is great and is fit for purpose, if you are vlogging this is great

fiquei muito satisfeito com a qualidade do produto. A estrutura é leve, resistente e proporciona uma pegada firme durante as gravações, ajudando a reduzir tremores e tornando os vídeos mais estáveis. Um dos grandes diferenciais são os três encaixes tipo cold shoe, que permitem adicionar microfone, iluminação LED e outros acessórios ao mesmo tempo

Perfect for content creators. Comfortable grip, stable while filming, and works well with microphones and lights. Great value for mobile video setup
