Portronics MODESK Universal Mobile Holder Stand with Metal Body, Anti Skid Design, Light Weight for All Smartphones, Tablets, Kindle, iPad(Black)

Very nice

The metal body feels premium and keeps the phone securely in place. Perfect for watching videos, video calls, or working at a desk.

So this is one of those buys that had me double minded about keeping it or returning it. In the end, I didn't want to bother both amazon and the seller with extra transit costs over something with such a reasonable price, so I kept it. But, I'll still leave a review, so here goes: Pros: 1) Very sturdily built. Metallic with reinforced plastic in the mix for some flex, giving it a fairly minimum flexibility. 2) I bought it for holding my smartphone and it holds it pretty well horizontally. The phone also fits without a fuss in this orientation. 3) Clean built quality and for the price, it doesn't come off as cheap at all. 4) The points where your device rests on the holder have cushioned spots giving it a more premium feel. 5) Broad stand with four anti-skid points make it so that it's not as easy to accidentally knock it off or move it around unintended. Cons: 1) Lets get the obvious out. No height adjustments or swivel capability, but that is less of a con and more of a "to be expected" in this price bracket. I wasn't really looking for those either so all good here. 2) I mentioned in the pros that the phone is held well in a horizontal state. But that is not the case if you place it vertically. Then the stand becomes unstable as the phone's centre of gravity starts exerting its weight. While it still stands, but clearly the stand's own weight is not enough to balance it leading to wobbly reaction if you brush against your phone or try to use it while held. I keep my device on a table near my PC, so the fear of phone toppling over due to an absentminded hand brush, was pretty real to me. 3) Additionally, the flex I mentioned above comes into play when you try to use your phone when held by the stand. There are slight jitters when using your phone in this state leading to an odd viewing experience that borders on uncomfortable. 4) Charging your phone while on the stand is also a hit and a miss. While easily done mounted horizontally, but if you try doing so vertically by threading the cable via the hole under the holder itself, leads to a very sharp bend in it. Not an expert, but I've a feeling that this will accelerate the cable's deterioration factor overtime. All in all, the stand delivers on its claims, but falls short as a full package when it comes to basic functionality. If I had bought this for a tablet, I'd most likely have returned it for a more complex model, but for my smartphone needs, it's adequate.

Fits well for Samsung M35 with the heavy cover that has a clip at the back. Doesn't fall sideways easily and its well built.

Sturdy but Mobile phone falling due to vertical height is less.

Best stand for charging code coonected
