GripTight GorillaPod with Magsafe Mount
The JOBY GripTight GorillaPod for MagSafe is designed for smartphone creators who are rocking the popular iPhone 12 and later series of smartphones.
With the hybrid clamp, you get two modes of use. With the jaws twisted back the magnet takes the lead for speedy mounting and dismounting. With the jaws twisted out, you get the security and trust which only JOBY products can provide.
The whole clamp also spins 360° to allow for quick rotation from landscape to portrait and you get mounting points to build it up as part of a rig with GorillaPod arms, for Beamo™ lights and Wavo™ mics. Supplied with the industry standard ¼-20” mounting point, the GripTight Mount for MagSafe works as a dream team with the supplied GorillaPod 1K Stand for some true Grip It, Wrap It, Stand It™ action.
When not in use this killer kit is travel friendly and will easily drop into your backpack or fit on the side of your camera bag for another shooting option.
Our Review
Joby GripTight GorillaPod with MagSafe — Flexible Travel Tripod That Snaps to Your iPhone
The gist: A flexible-leg tripod with a MagSafe head — MagSafe-equipped iPhones snap on instantly, while the bendable legs secure to railings, branches, or any surface a rigid tripod can’t handle.
- MagSafe magnetic attachment: Compatible iPhones (iPhone 12 and later) click on and off magnetically in one motion — faster than adjusting a clamp at a viewpoint or hiking spot.
- Flexible GorillaPod legs: Wrap around poles, hang from fences, angle on uneven ground, or stand flat — genuinely useful on terrain where a traditional tripod won’t fit.
- 1kg load capacity: Holds standard iPhones securely; the hybrid clamp arms add mechanical security for heavier cases or non-MagSafe phones.
- Compact carry: 222g and foldable — fits in a jacket pocket or the front of a daypack for all-day carry.
Trusted Reviews found the MagSafe head “works excellently,” with particular praise for the “hidden clamping mechanism” that provides mechanical security beyond the magnet alone.
Best for: iPhone travelers who need a packable, adaptable tripod for selfies, video, and long-exposure shots on varied terrain. Skip it if: you primarily shoot with a dedicated camera (this is a phone-first tripod) or use an Android device. Runs ~$56 — check the current price before buying.
