The GripTight Micro Stand for smaller tablets (US MSRP $49.95) is a pocket-sized stand that is ideal for reading the news, video chatting with loved ones, watching a movie on a plane, reading recipes from a kitchen counter, or even propping your tablet up and using a keyboard for ease of use. The stand features a steel inner frame and zinc alloy legs, and is sleek and durable enough to stash in a pocket on-the-go convenience. Grippy, rubber feet allow users to stabilize their smaller tablets on uneven surfaces, and the mini-ballhead allows you to pan and tilt 36 degrees to get the preferred angle for viewing various types of media.
The GripTight GorillaPod Stand for smaller tablets (US MSRP $59.95) is a fun, flexible, adaptable accessory that enables the optimal viewing angle, from curling up on the couch to surf the web to watching movies or hanging inside a tent during a camping trip.
