AmazonBasics Multi Angle Portable Tablet reader Reviews Summary

Compatibility with Protective Cases

Pros:

• "Surprised this isn't plastic for the price. Its all metal, and using the push button on the side, you can angle it at different degrees. Simple and great product. My 10.5" iPad has a case on it and it still fits."
• "I have an iPad Pro 11" (3rd Gen.) with a Cellairis protective case, the kind with the hand strap in the back and the little plastic stand that pops out. The little stand broke, so I ordered this guy, hoping it would fit. When I opened the box, I said, "This'll never hold/fit my iPad." Well, it does."

Cons:

• "Just be aware that this is very small and won’t hold iPads or phones that have protective cases on them."
• "This product was designed for tablets that do not have a case. The bottom lip that hold the tablet is too small. It is not sturdy when you have a case on your tablet."
• "This is a bit heavy for travel, however, the weight contributes to the success of holding larger phones and iPads. The rubber piece keeps falling out and I misplace it, so most of the time I use it without the rubber piece."

Sturdiness and Build Quality

Pros:

• "Popped in parents home and “caught”them both watching great grand kids videos! Kudos. HEAVY metal construction. Feels and seems to be in-breakable."
• "This arrived in a timely manner. It was smaller than I expected (not a negative) and heavier than I thought it would be. I am not disappointed at all. Great price and made really well."
• "I'm so glad I found something that works! I have a gaming portable monitor which was provided a "smart stand"; ha-ha. Nope. If you hit it with whatever pressure--plop! This product is a great replacement!"

Cons:

• "Very disappointed. Back in 2020 I bought a similar product from another company that is no longer available for sale on Amazon. This Amazon Basics model was the only thing showing up close to it, but it's not even close."
• "While a great bargain and seemingly very well-made it unfortunately will not accommodate the thickness of my iPad case and wasn’t very stable on when holding my iPhone. Ultimately it got sent back."

Adjustability and Ease of Use

Pros:

• "If you saw this with your "tablet" (not everyone HAS i-devices) you might not buy it. But though it is small, it does the job holding your tablet phone upright in various degrees. Suitable for a bedside table!"
• "It's sturdy metal & works perfect for my kindle & phone! I love it so much I just got the 2 more today I ordered for my phone!"
• "Easily adjustable stand, sturdy, can’t access iPhone port through bottom to charge, but I put my phone in landscape, rest on stand sideways and plug-in."

Cons:

• "The only small meh thing I found is the holder part for the stand could angle up a little more."
• "This is great if you want a stand for a phone, but not so much if you want a stand for a tablet. I find the push button adjuster annoying to use as you have to remove your tablet, pick up the stand, and get the button pushed in while adjusting the angle of the stand."
