        Yikes, $79.95 RRP for a phone stand! I think I’m good lol

      • as sad as it is true

    • +6

      I i think it 's because you have to use their prop app for the face tracking, what a waste if true, passssssss

    • +2

      Not recommended for video calls and usage with FaceTime, WhatsApp and WeChat apps

      Why?

      • +1

        I think because it won’t face track you unless you use their proprietary app and that’s touted as a primary feature of it. Belkin probably thinks if you video call you want your phone to be able to face track you.

    Mehhh.. I'd rather go for the 2x flea repellent fans below. Great for keeping those pesky flies off your food when eating outside

    Pretty bad product. Doesnt work for video calls. If it has 2 faces on the screen it freaks out

  • +2

    Bought one when I received the email this morning. I will not use its fancy face tracking or whatever, instead, it will be a phone holder only. After checking the phone holder price on eBay and Amazon, $15 is not too bad.

    • I was thinking that too but I have an iPhone 11 so guess not compatible and assume for newest phones if you had a case you’d need to remove it so the phone can be magnetic to this holder

      • +2

        Unless you have a MagSafe case.

        Instructions unclear. Feet pics.

        Im richhhh biaaatttcchhh!!!!!

      • What face?

  • Wow, I can’t believe my iPhone is too old for something!

    • +5

      And I am too old for something like this.

      • Bazinga!

  • +1

    Just another waste…

  • On a separate note…..any recommendations for a good travel selfie stick for iPhone?

  • I saw this in Athe JB email this morning as well but didn't post it as…. It looks like it is pretty useless

    I guess you could use it for video calls while you're doing something like watching a movie together or cooking dinner etc… Otherwise… ???

    • "Not recommended for video calls and usage with FaceTime, WhatsApp and WeChat apps"

      • So what is it recommended for, then?

        • +1

          Desk decoration? Paper weight?

      • Why would it not work for that?

        • Guessing the face tracking is only going to work on the belkin app. Just a guess though.

          • @xoom: So it won't charge and it won't face track for video calls, it's amazing.

            It really is for only fans girls doing a self recording! and that's about it.

            • @hamwhisperer: Girls?

              Overweight men in anime waifu costumes stuffing their faces with copious amounts of food.

    Good deal! But just cancelled as it won't support an Android phone. 😕

  • I assume there's nothing stopping you from using it as a simple phone holder?

    • +2

      Impossibru!!!

  • Saw this. Would the magnet work if your phone has heavy duty case?

  • Good price for even just the phone stand. Thanks OP

  • Does not run from power and charge your phone? This product is baffling.

    • +1

      Well it did say

      Requires 3 AA batteries

      But i do agree this product does baffle. Why does it exist?

      • curious also so i did some research, the Belkin video ad declares "Level up your content game" so if you are makeing a video of yourself, and you have the proprietary Belkin app installed, then the app teslls the stand to rotate as the app is tracking your face - the batteries are to make it rotate left to right as you move about

        anyhow i bougtht one just to have as a magnetic desk stand

        • Well they could have had it powered through an outlet.

  • 1 start review product. Waste or deal?

  • +1

    Perfect Door Stopper

    • paper weight yes, door stopper - I doubt it.

  • +2

    As an engineer with 25+ years in Product Development, I hope the lead product designer on this project has been "moved on". How you could possibly think it is ok to release this product without the ability to simultaneously charge your phone is beyond belief!

    • Well to be fair its using 3 AA batteries. Doubt how useful that could be to charge a phone and power the swivel motors at the same time.

      Perhaps powering it using mains outlet would be better?

      • Yes, I think mains powered with an internal rechargeable battery that could at least charge your phone fully once would be the minimal expectation from a customer.

        • Yes internal rechargeable battery with pass through.

      • That's exactly what they meant..

        Oop too slow

    • Wait for the pro version.

  • Why why I bought this even with all negative feedback 😃

    • +1

      Lol same

      • Hope I can return, if the product so terrible

  • -3

    Inflation hitting us again. Normally it's a free product and you get tracked , now we gotta pay to get tracking ?

  • It was around this price on Amazon as "Used - Cosmetic imperfections". Seems like most people who bought it new returned it as well because after I purchased there was still the "Used" option ones available at the lower price.
    For the low price I thought I could just have fun with it. It was crap. Tracks very slowly and loses detection easily.
    Don't see how it could be used as a reliable phone mount either because it's very light in weight and not bottom heavy even after putting in batteries.

    It's just sitting in the corner of my room in it's box after using it once. Was hoping to give it to someone who might like it but haven't been able to. It will probably be unwanted by the person I give it to as well.
