The QuikStand was designed to eliminate the use of randomly assorted books, coffee mugs, and cereal boxes to prop up our valuable smartphones and tablets, and also do away with the unreliable support they provided. Made with sleek brushed aluminum and sturdy, yet flexible polypropylene, the QuikStand can be adjusted to different angles, and holds your device securely in either portrait or landscape orientation. In its resting state, it's about the size of a credit card and easily fits in your wallet. To use, simply unsnap the aluminum back support out of the polypropylene base, then, raise the adjustable aluminum support bar to the desired position and slide your device between it and the front flap - it fits smartphones and 177.8mm tablets with or without cases. The easy portability of the QuikStand makes it great for travel (it's especially excellent for use on long plane rides), and perfect for reading recipes, video chatting, browsing the internet, or catching up with the news - wherever you are.
