iFLEX Buddy Cell Phone and Tablet Stand Companion - Ideal for Air Travel, Work, and Home Use - Flexible Holder for All Mobile Devices - The Ultimate iPhone Cell Phone Stand Solution

I picked up the Buddy Cell Phone and Tablet Stand Companion for an upcoming flight, and now I honestly don’t know how I went without it. Whether I’m on a plane, at my desk, or just watching something while cooking, this little gadget has become a go-to accessory. Portability is a huge win here. It's super lightweight and folds down small enough to slip into a backpack, purse, or even a pocket. Perfect for travel—I used it on a tray table during a long flight, and it held my phone steady the entire time, even with turbulence. Versatility is another strong point. It works well with both my phone and my 10-inch tablet, and the adjustable angles make it easy to find the perfect viewing position whether you're FaceTiming, streaming, or reading. The design is simple but smart—solid grip, stable base, and no slipping or tipping. At work, it’s been equally useful. It keeps my phone at eye level during video calls and helps reduce the neck strain I usually get from constantly looking down. Build quality is solid too. Despite being compact, it feels durable and well-made, not cheap or flimsy like some stands I’ve tried in the past. The hinge mechanism is smooth but firm, and it holds its position well even with heavier devices. Bottom line: If you’re looking for a reliable, multi-purpose stand for your phone or tablet, the Buddy Stand is an excellent choice. It’s sleek, functional, and truly useful in more situations than you'd expect—from airplanes to office desks to kitchen counters. Highly recommended for frequent travelers, remote workers, or anyone who just wants a better hands-free setup.

I travel a bit for work and sometimes I’m on a plane with no screen. I wanted a way to hang up or prop up my phone or Nintendo Switch a little bit better so I wouldn’t strain my neck. One flight, I didn’t have a screen so I bent the stand to hang in the pocket and then bent the other end so it could hold my Switch. I was able to run the power cord through one of the holes so I could keep playing. After a 3 hour flight, the stand never unbent from the weight and held strong. I could even bent it to a minute degree to get the exact angle I wanted. After the flight, I bent it back straight and put it back into my backpack. Since it’s a flat, straight stand, it packs very easily in any bag. It never bends back 100% straight but enough to pack it away. Was definitely worth the money spent!

Sturdy and you can adjust to fit any phone you like. Not just for phones either, I use them for pictures. High quality and holds all kinds of items.

The iFlex Buddy is a versatile phone stand thanks to its flexibility and hanging triangle. It won't work in all situations, but it can do the job where many other traditional stands wouldn't work as well (ie: on the curve of a sofa arm, on a pillow, etc.). It's quite portable as it's lightweight and doesn't take up much room. I did take a star off for two reasons. While the interior metal is more sturdy than the previous iFlex stands, it feels a bit stiffer, too. Also, it seems the area right above the hanging triangle and charging cutout may be a weak point. The silicone covering helps if that area should break. Finally, it isn't actually very easy to use the charging cutout as a vertical phone will not be elevated much so getting some cords under and up there can be tricky. Overall, I like the iFlex Buddy. I use it more because of its versatility. It's a handy stand to have.

Device doesn’t slip or slide. Not especially lightweight, but holds the shape well. Functional and long lasting.

I just got 2 of these for my husband and I for an upcoming trip. I'd seem someone use one to watch a movie on her phone on a recent airplane ride, so I searched around and settled on this one for the design. They really couldn't be better. Flexible, easy to use, sturdy enough to hold up well, light weight and easy to travel with. Tested them out at home, and they'll clearly be perfect for travel, but also convenient for hanging my phone from the top of my laptop so I can have a video call on one screen and notes on my computer without having to shuffle window sized. The hold for charging cord is a nice feature which other brands don't offer. Couldn't be more pleased.

Terrific little gadget is well worth its price. It has helped me in poorly designed rental cars that have no place for your phone in addition to providing hands-free entertainment on flight flights.

This looked strange when I opened the package, but it works like a charm. You can twist it in any direction that suits your tablet or phone or book. Good on uneven surfaces, like beds. Folds flat for packing.
