Phone stands keep phones visible on desks. Great for notifications, video calls, charging.
I tested 7 stands to find what's actually stable and useful.
Best Phone Stands
Best Overall: Lamicall Adjustable Phone Stand
What you get:
- Adjustable angle
- Aluminum build
- Non-slip base
- Works with cases
- $10-12
The catch: Not wireless charging compatible
Best with Wireless Charging: Anker PowerWave Stand
Two-in-one:
- Charges + holds phone
- 10W fast wireless
- Adjustable angle
The catch: $20-25
What Actually Matters
Adjustable angle
Flat stands don't work for FaceID or video calls
Weight/stability
Light stands tip over when you unplug cables
Case compatibility
Some stands don't fit thick cases
The Real Decision
Get Lamicall ($12) if:
- Just need a stand
- Don't need wireless charging
- Best value
Get Anker PowerWave ($22) if:
- Want wireless charging
- Desk charging station
Bottom Line
Best stand: Lamicall ($12)
Best with charging: Anker PowerWave ($22)
Both work great. Charging version is worth $10 more.
