I think what strikes the chord is that it's so darn simple and minimal. Not to forget the dual utility. Nifty is the word. I think what strikes the chord is that it’s so darn simple and minimal.

Personally, I prefer the Joby GripTight Micro myself. It's not as secure but it doesn't become obsolete when you get a new phone and can actually be used on your small cameras as well as your iPhone. As well, the base can be removed to attach the holder to a proper tripod. Wasn’t this one of the very first successful kickstarter/indegogo type crowd sourced products?
