Fidlock launches the vacuum tripod for smartphone filmmakers

Fidlock presents the "VACUUM mini tripod base". The smartphone holder with the small tripod makes use of two invisible forces: vacuum and magnetic force. The simple combination therefore holds twice as tight and is a practical must-have for vloggers and other selfie pros.

On the bike in the forest, hiking & skiing, working from home or on vacation: ever since the first smartphones with a camera came onto the market, smartphones have been with us everywhere and at all times. And as many smartphones can now easily compete with compact cameras in terms of image quality, many amateur photographers are increasingly using them to take photos and videos on the move. That's why the inventors at FIDLOCK are expanding the universal VACUUM family with the practical VACUUM mini tripod base smartphone holder - a small, mobile tripod. The ball head is crucial for a cell phone tripod in order to position the smartphone perfectly. FIDLOCK offers a front tilt of over 90 degrees and a side tilt of 35 degrees. The Hanover-based company has also thought of a locking mechanism. Rubberized feet ensure a secure stand. Thanks to the extendable telescopic arm, the mini tripod can be extended by 12 cm and used as a selfie stick or for video conferences at the desk. At the same time, it can be folded up small and stowed quickly and easily in a rucksack or jacket pocket when you're on the go.

VACUUM system - simply safe

Sounds complicated? It's not! The VACUUM system is ingeniously simple. It consists of the modular and intuitive smartphone holder and the special but universally applicable VACUUM phone case. The two can be easily connected using the magnetic guide. The magnet centers the phone and holds it reliably. The vacuum created by the suction cup provides additional security - especially under heavy loads. The smartphone is released by simply operating a small lever on the suction cup.

The smartphone case itself is slim and simple and reliably protects the smartphone thanks to the impact-resistant TPU frame and soft material on the inside. It is enhanced by the useful and decorative ball catch of the VACUUM geometry, which prevents the smartphone from unintentionally slipping or twisting on the tripod. The VACUUM mini tripod base is now available for 34.99 euros (RRP), the VACUUM phone case for all current iPhone and Galaxy models for 29.99 euros (RRP) from selected specialist retailers and online at https://www.fidlock-bike.com/shop.
