Compatibility: Attaches magnetically to iPhone 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 series phones (including Pro and Pro Max models) without any additional ring or case. The built-in MagSafe magnets in these models lock directly to the mount's 23 N55 magnets. iPhone 11 and earlier models, plus all Android phones (Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, LG, and others), require the included metal ring adhered to the phone or case back. Allow minimum 2 hours undisturbed after ring application before first use. The mount's 1/4" tripod threaded hole fits standard tripod Quick release plates, selfie sticks, mini stands, octopus clamps, camera cages, and stabilisers. The cold shoe mount fits any Cold Shoe fitting or your camera flashes' hot shoe. Maximum load capacity across phone and any rear-mounted magnetic accessories is 500g, suitable for phones with or without cases but not for tablets or heavier devices. The rear magnetic field is weak by design and supports only lightweight magnetic accessories like compact fill lights. Not suitable for high-impact activities (surfing, skiing, rafting, mountain biking) where external shocks may dislodge the phone. Intended for stationary or controlled-movement shooting only.

Snap, frame, shoot, with magnetic speed

K&F Cold Shoe Mount with Magnetic Quick-Mount any Phone Brand | KF31.196 is built for content creators who need to reposition their phone quickly across multiple setups in a single session. The most typical use case is for someone wanting to attach their phone to their camera. This can be for monitoring live streams or for having a two-camera setup. Snap your phone onto the magnetic mount in under a second, tilt and rotate it through 360 of horizontal movement and up to 293 of tilt range using the dual-hinge design. The magnetic mount works directly MagSafe magnets, and the included metal adapter ring extends magnetic mounting to iPhone 11 and earlier, plus all Android phones. At 44g and 8.6cm folded length, it drops into a jacket pocket or daypack side pouch without the weight penalty of a full tripod head. The 1/4" tripod thread on the base fits onto standard tripod sockets, selfie sticks, camera cages, and magic arms, so it integrates with the gear you already own. When speed and convenience matter, you can move fast between setups without losing creative momentum to fumbling with clamps and alignment.

Cross-platform magnetic mounting
The included metal ring converts any non-MagSafe phone into a magnetically mountable device, so you don't need to upgrade your handset or buy a second mounting system to use the same mount across your iPhone and your partner's Android. The ring adheres to the phone back or case with a strong adhesive designed for permanent attachment. Allow the full 2-hour curing time before first use to ensure maximum bond strength. MagSafe iPhone users (12 and later) skip this step entirely and attach their phone as-is, no prep work or waiting for adhesive to cure. The magnetic snap-on system eliminates the threading, clamping, and alignment steps required by mechanical phone holders, freeing your other hand to adjust lighting, frame the shot, or steady the tripod while attaching the phone.

Dual-hinge articulation for multi-format framing
The dual-hinge design provides two independent articulation points that allow full spherical positioning, unlike the single-axis pivot on most magnetic mounts. This means you can frame reels, stories, and widescreen video from one mounting position without repositioning the tripod base. Film a vertical reel, then pan to landscape for B-roll without remounting the camera or losing your framing reference. The 360 horizontal rotation and 180 tilt range (extendable to 293 with the second hinge) give you the same multi-axis control as a ball head, so you can dial in any angle without rotating the entire mount or tripod. Use the included Allen key to tighten or loosen the hinge friction to match the weight of your phone and accessories. If the phone slowly tilts downward under its own weight after you've framed a shot, tighten the hinges in quarter-turn increments until the mount holds position without creeping.

Cold shoe and tripod thread for accessory stacking
The cold shoe foot will allow this to fit in a camera's flash mount or hot shoe. It will also work in any other accessory that has a cold shoe mountable point. The 1/4" tripod thread on the bottom mounts to any tripod, magic arm, or camera cage, making the mount compatible with the grip gear you already own. This dual-interface design turns the mount into a platform for building compact multi-device rigs. The rear of the mount features a weak magnetic field that holds lightweight magnetic accessories like compact fill lights or card holders, so you can clip a magnetic LED to the back for a rim light on a product video without needing a second stand.

500g load capacity for phone-plus-accessory rigs
The 500g load capacity supports the combined weight of a modern smartphone without sagging or drift (and has the ability to be tightened with a hex screw if needed). The load rating is comfortable territory for phones with or without cases, but not suitable for tablets or heavier devices. The rear magnetic field is weak by design and supports only lightweight magnetic accessories like compact fill lights, not heavier items that would exceed the 500g combined load limit. Magnetic mounts are also not suitable for adventurous or rough activities where bumping can occur, as this could cause accidental detachment.

Metal construction with protective coating
The metal frame provides rigidity and durability without adding bulk, a step up from the plastic magnetic mounts that often feel flimsy and unreliable. The magnetic surface has a protective plastic coating that prevents metal-on-glass contact, protecting your phone's back glass from scratches and scuffs during repeated mounting and removal. At 44g, the mount is light enough to carry in your everyday bag so it's always with you when a shooting opportunity appears, but heavy enough to feel solid and stable when mounted. The 8.6cm folded length means it travels with you instead of living in a drawer because it doesn't take up meaningful bag space.

The K&F Magnetic Phone Mount with Cold Shoe with its Dual Hinge, is a practical upgrade for content creators who need to reposition their phone quickly without losing creative momentum to mechanical clamps. With cross-platform magnetic compatibility, dual-hinge articulation, and cold-shoe accessory mount-ability, it's a reliable tool designed to support modern multi-device workflows. Order the KF31.196 today and bring your creative vision to life with speed and precision.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Will the metal ring damage my phone's wireless charging?
A: The included metal ring will block wireless charging if placed over the phone's charging coil (typically centre-back on most models). To preserve wireless charging, apply the ring off-centre toward the top or bottom edge of the phone back, or attach it to a removable case instead of directly to the phone. MagSafe iPhone users (12 and later) don't need the ring at all and retain full wireless charging capability.

Q: How do I know if the hinges are tight enough to prevent drift?
A: If the phone slowly tilts downward under its own weight after you've framed a shot, the hinges need tightening. Use the included Allen key to turn the hinge screws clockwise in quarter-turn increments until the mount holds position without creeping. Over-tightening makes adjustment stiff. Back off slightly if you can't reposition the phone smoothly with one hand. Heavier phones or added accessories require more tension than lighter setups.

Q: Can I leave the metal ring on my phone permanently, or does it need to come off between uses?
A: The ring is designed for permanent attachment. The adhesive is strong enough to survive daily pocket carry, but removing and reapplying it repeatedly will degrade the bond and leave residue. If you want the flexibility to remove the ring, attach it to a phone case instead of the phone itself, then swap cases when you don't need magnetic mounting. Allow the full 2-hour curing time before first use to ensure maximum bond strength. It is very low profile and therefore will go largely unnoticed.

Q: What happens if I accidentally knock the phone while it's mounted?
A: A direct side impact or upward knock can dislodge the phone from the magnetic hold. The 23N magnetic force resists vertical pull and light bumps, but it's not designed to absorb shock loads. The mount is intended for stationary or controlled-movement shooting (tripod work, slow pans, walking pace). Avoid using it during high-impact activities like trail running, cycling over rough terrain, or any scenario where the rig might strike an object or experience sudden jolts.

Q: Does the cold shoe mount work with non-standard accessories, or only official hot shoe devices?
A: The cold shoe interface follows the universal dimensions used across photography and video gear, so it is accepted on any accessory with a standard cold shoe fitting. Brand and price point don't matter. This includes budget LED panels, third-party wireless mics, and off-brand monitors.

Q: If I'm shooting vertical video, will the mount's own body appear in the frame?
A: The mount's 8.6cm folded length and narrow 1.8cm width keep it outside the frame for most vertical compositions, but this depends on your phone's camera placement and field of view. Ultra-wide lenses on phones with top-mounted cameras (like most iPhones) may catch the edge of the mount in the corner of the frame when tilted to extreme angles. Test your specific phone and lens combination before a critical shoot. If the mount intrudes, reduce the tilt angle slightly or switch to the main camera lens instead of the ultra-wide.

Q: Can I use this mount with a phone that's already in a thick protective case?
A: MagSafe-compatible cases (those with a built-in magnetic ring) work directly with the mount, regardless of thickness. Non-MagSafe cases require the included metal ring adhered to the outside of the case back. This works with most case materials (plastic, silicone, leather) but may not bond reliably to heavily textured or rubberised surfaces. Very thick cases (over 5mm) may reduce magnetic hold strength. If the phone feels loose, remove the case and apply the ring directly to the phone back instead.
