Rain Design mStand Mobile, Space Gray (10061)

This is a combo review of the Rain Design mStand and the Lamicall S1 stand. Both were purchased for an iPhone 7 Plus that is protected by an Otterbox Symmetry case (which is 0.5” thick according to Amazon details, my digital calipers say 0.45"). I bought the Lamicall S1 first because it was cheaper. It’s a fine stand that will fit phones with cases thicker than 0.5”. It looks nice and does it’s job at an affordable price. What I didn’t like about the S1: There is a gap at the bottom when holding the Symmetry case. This gap causes the bottom-front of the phone to slide forward slightly and the back of the case doesn’t sit flush against the aluminum. In other words, there is a triangle of space between the phone and stand. And when you push the Home button or tap the screen, the phone slides back and forth about a quarter inch. And I didn’t like that the S1 was prone to sliding on my wood table when I tapped the screen. Most normal people would probably be fine with the Lamicall S1, but I’m super picky and wondered if the mStand would be better. For my specific needs, the mStand is a superior product. The mStand is *almost* too tight to hold the 0.5” thick Symmetry case. When I set the encased phone down, it sits just on top of the two rubberized cradles. If push down gently, the Symmetry almost locks into place. There is no gap between the back of the case and the stand so the phone doesn’t slide back and forth when tapping. The mStand is slightly taller, which is neither good nor bad. The finish looks as nice as the S1. The mStand is also noticeably heavier. Between the weight and seemingly better rubber pads on the bottom, the mStand and phone do not slide. I’m keeping both stands. The mStand will sit on my work desk and get the most use. The S1 will live in the kitchen and play music or display recipes. Summary: If you have a phone case thicker than 0.5” you will need to get the Lamicall. If your device is thinner, let the price or stand weight determine your choice.

It fits My iPhone XS in a Silk Kung Fu Grip case. It elevates the phone 2.25" at a good angle, doesn't tip, and has a hole in the back for a charging cable. It's on my desk about 2 ft. from my head and Face ID works fine. The phone sits above a partial ledge that channels the bottom speaker sound upward. I'm not an audiophile, but the phone sounds good in the stand. Like my matching laptop mStand, It's beautifully designed and very well made.

I'm pleased with it. Just waiting for a model update that includes wireless charging functionality. That would be icing on the cake.

I love these stands. It holds my phone just exactly as I expected. It is sturdy and good looking. Excellent materials and workmanship. I would buy it again if I ever needed one, but it should last a lifetime as it is.

Looks way better than most phone stands. If I had to quibble, the rail at the bottom is too narrow to hold my iPhone 11 Pro with a credit card case on it. It works fine, but the phone is propped above the rail rather than sitting inside it.

I really enjoy the sleekness and sturdiness of the Rain Design stand. The cable management opening through the back is a bonus and I like that it works in both portrait and landscape mode with my iPhone even in a case!

The front of the stand has little hooks that come to the front. I am used to MagSafe devices and other easier stands. When I grab my phone from the stand I pull the entire thing up until it slams back onto my desk. No dents but very annoying. It does match all of my Mac devices so it makes for a seamless look.

I have an identical stand for my laptop, which I have had for years. This one is identical only smaller. Excellent quality - very practical. The only thing that would help is if the height was adjustable to be able to reach eye level as needed (for proper head/neck positioning), when viewing something of longer length.

Solid, functional and matches to my Macbook and mStand360 perfectly! Enjoy every minute of "working from home" now in my home office!
