Our good friends over at Peak Design has just launched their 10th Kickstarter campaign. Peak Design has dipped their feet into the smartphone accessory market with their new Mobile line.
It starts with SlimLink, a square mounting plate that relies on magnets and a ceramic insert. Peak Design has made an Everyday Case for the iPhone 11, iPhone 12 and Samsung Galaxy S20 that has a SlimLink built right in. But don't worry if you don't have any of the phones listed. Peak Design has you covered with their Universal Adapter. Its a SlimLink with 3M VHB sticker on the back side that lets you attach it to the back of your favorite case. Peak Design also plans to support more smartphone models with Everyday Cases in the future. Peak Design is also looking to make their products be compatible with Apple's new MagSafe feature.
With the SlimLink, your handset can quickly attack to a number of Mobile-branded accessories. Peak Design has products such as mobile tripod, a wallet that doubles as a kickstand, wall mount, car, bicycle, motorbike and mounts. There's even wireless chargers too.

In the mean time, take a look at our unboxing and quick overview video of some of the products that was sent to us. This product line has great potential. I know most people would be turned off slightly due to the lack of available case phone support. But people have to remember this is the first step and there are so many phones on the market that they have to choose which is the most popular phones that has a larger market share. There is the Universal Adapter for the time being.
I'm an Android user myself (Google Pixel 2XL) and I will be using the Universal Adapter. I am also in the market to upgrade our phones.
