GripTight GorillaPod PRO Tablet

GripTight PRO Tablet: The Best Tablet Stand

By | GripTight, New Product Launch | No Comments

You asked for it we made it happen.

Go pro with the GripTight PRO Tablet

Last year, in the late spring of 2015 we launched the GripTight Mount for Smaller Tablets.  But we soon realized that not all tablets are created equal and not everyone is streaming Hulu or Netflix at all times! Our community rallied and there was an outcry for a robust GripTight Mount that would securely hold a tablet in landscape; without having to hang it sideways.

So, for you, we created the GripTight PRO Tablet.

Like the earlier GripTight Mount for Smaller Tablets, the GripTight PRO Tablet quickly and securely holds your device for ease of use. But now we’ve added over-molded stainless steel plates that slide & lock securely in either portrait or landscape mode. It makes setup a breeze; whether you read from your Kindle Fire, play games on your iPad Air or look up DIY YouTube videos on your Nexus 9, you can quickly switch back and forth from portrait to landscape without having to remove your tablet.

Get A Grip

Give your tablet a lift and you’ll do more than you ever imagined. The GripTight GorillaPod PRO Tablet combines our new GripTight PRO Tablet Mount with our world famous flexible GorillaPod tripod to create the ultimate tablet stand. Hang your tablet from the backseat of a car, set up a mobile workstation or simply chat with a friend hands-free on Facetime; you’ll be amazed at what your tablet can do.

JOBY GripTight Regular the perfect smartphone mount for the iPhone 6.


iPhone 6 with GripTight XL

While the JOBY GripTight XL will work for the for the iPhone 6 without a case the Regular size is recommended for a tighter grip.


 

iPhone 6 in OtterBox Defender case with GripTight Regular

The OtterBox Defender case is massive and is the largest case we could find for the iPhone 6. The GripTight Regular fits but just barely at it’s maximum opening width. Your case probably isn’t this large. With a case we would recommend the Regular size for the iPhone 6. NOTE: If you do have the OtterBox Defender case you should use the GripTight XL.

The JOBY GripTight XL if perfect for the iPhone 6 Plus with or without a case. It even fits easily with the massive OtterBox defender case.

The Moto-X 2nd Gen is 2.85in | 72.4mm wide. Fitting both the GripTight Regular and XL fit. If you have a case or not will depend on which is best for you. See the images below.

Recommended – The GripTight XL fits the Moto X 2nd Gen with plenty of space between the jaws. Perfect for use with or without a case.


 

Moto-X 2nd gen with JOBY GripTight Mount Regular

Possibly Recommended? – The GripTight Regular fits the Moto X 2nd Gen with a small amount of space to spare between the jaws. This is preferred by some of our JOBY staff as it provides a very snug fit. Only recommended without a case.

The Galaxy S5 is 2.85in | 72.5mm wide. The GripTight XL is recommended and has plenty of room for most cases.
