God dwells in the details! I've touched all of Peak Design's smartphone accessories!

"Peak Design" is stylish yet practical and is steadily increasing its fans. Mainly camera-related accessories, but since last fall we have been developing the "Mobile" series of smartphone cases and related accessories.

What does the Peak Design smartphone case look like? If you're thinking of wanting to see it once, the Peak Design Tokyo store just contacted you.

"Now, we have the entire mobile series lineup! Please come by all means."

That's why I got in the way immediately.

A smartphone case that looks like a cloth but has a hard texture

Jajan! This is a smartphone case. "Everyday case" without loops, "Everyday loop case" with loops.

"Everyday Case" has a lineup of iPhone 11/12/13 series and Samsung Galaxy S21 5G series. "Everyday loop cases are available in various types of iPhone 12 and 13 (excluding iPhone 12 mini and 13 mini).

So I installed it immediately, but the texture is exquisitely good! The case thickness is 2.4 mm. The sides and bottom have a slightly thicker design (TPU material), but the back is made of nylon campus fabric, which makes you want to touch it for the rest of your life. It's exquisite, isn't it? It looks fluffy and soft, but when you touch it, it feels quite hard. It seems to be sturdy.

And the square hole on the back. You're curious, right? This is a unique accessory mount called the "SlimLink" system. It is said that all the convenient accessories compatible with this SlimLink are available, so I actually tried it.

The wallet attached to the smartphone can also be used as a smartphone stand

The first thing I was interested in was this. A slim wallet and a stand wallet. Since magnets are built into both the smartphone case and the wallet, it is a wallet that can be attached to the back of the case.

It's good that the lid part is a magnet and it closes with a click. Up to 7 cards can be stored.

The structure is such that the top lid is pulled up so that the card can be easily inserted and removed. I'm coming with Kyun because such details are taken into consideration.

The stand wallet is an integrated smartphone stand. It may look weak at first glance, but it has a strong hinge so you can fix it at any angle you like steplessly.

I want to go out with one smartphone without having a wallet. Those who want to fulfill such a wish should buy either one.

A smartphone tripod with "built-in tools" that makes me too happy

Those who shoot with a smartphone may be thinking, "If you have a tripod for smartphones that you can carry around compactly ...". "Mobile Tripod" is a mobile tripod that fulfills such a desire.

It sticks to the back of the case with a magnet. Keep your legs closed when not in use.

When using it as a tripod, pull out three legs. Since the part that supports the main body and the part of the legs have a ball head mechanism, the angle can be changed freely.

If you attach it upside down, you can make it like this.

The main body has a built-in wrench for adjusting the hardness of the ball head. If you use a ball head, it will come loose.

Adjust by inserting the wrench part into the hole on the side. It's wonderful that even tools are built in.

By the way, Slimlink magnets are compatible with MagSafe accessories. The magnet strength when combined with the MagSafe accessory varies depending on the case, so it is recommended to try it at the store once.

In-vehicle kit that is hard to fall off with a strong magnet

This is an in-vehicle accessory. "Car mount" holds the smartphone with a magnet. The stand itself is used by sticking it on a dashboard with double-sided tape. "Wireless charging car mount" is a type of car mount equipped with a wireless charging function. The product comes with a cigar socket adapter and a USB-C cable.

The magnet part is quite strong. It won't fall by the vibration while driving (although it will fall on a great mountain road or off-road).

If you want to attach it to a motorcycle or bicycle, use "Hard Rock" compatible accessories.

The "Out Front Bike Mount" is a mount for fixing your smartphone to the handlebar of your bicycle. The "Motorcycle Bar Mount" is a mount for fixing your smartphone to the handlebar of your motorcycle.

As you can see by looking at both, there is a square protrusion on the mount. Actually, this is the point. SlimLink has a soft lock that is fixed only with a magnet and a hard lock that is fixed with two claws on the magnet + accessory side. This product is compatible with hard rock.

Having claws doesn't mean it's a hassle to put on and take off. When you bring the case close to the accessory, it will be locked quickly by the force of the magnet. You can remove it by pushing the button on the mount and lifting the smartphone.

You can see its strength by watching the video. It is firmly fixed with a clicking sound. With this, you can use it with confidence on your bicycle or motorcycle.

Oh, but be careful with just one thing. SlimLink's hard rock compatible accessories are not compatible with MagSafe. Be sure to use the Everyday Case and Everyday Loop Case.

If you want to shoot hard video with your smartphone, you will want a "Creator Kit"

The "Creator Kit" is a kit for using your smartphone as a shooting device. The smartphone is fixed with SlimLink's hard lock. The mount arm is compatible with GoPro mounts.

It also comes with a 1/4 inch threaded plate and an Arca-Swiss compatible plate that can be attached to a regular tripod, allowing you to secure your smartphone to a variety of tripods and Peak Design's "Capture". ..

This seems to be useful when shooting videos while walking. Especially if you turn it sideways, the camera part will be closer to the center of your body, and you will be able to take more natural images.

There are still more! "Mobile" series

There are many other accessories, so I'll introduce them all at once.

Wireless charging stand (11,000 yen). It's foldable so it's convenient to carry.

Wall mount (3,410 yen). A mount for fixing your smartphone to a wall with a magnet. There are charcoal and white colors.

It may be good to cook while checking the recipe.

Universal bar mount (6,820 yen). A bar mount that can be attached to any rod-shaped object. It can be used in various places such as bicycle handles, stems, tripod legs, strollers, climbing bars, horizontal bars, etc.

In fact, this may be the most versatile accessory.

Universal adapter (4,070 yen). If you are using a smartphone other than the iPhone or Galaxy series and are thinking "I want to do SlimLink", you can purchase this. If you attach it to your smartphone or smartphone case with double-sided tape, it will be compatible with SlimLink in no time.

You will want to have all of the "Mobile" series!

The impression I touched this time was that "the magnet is strong and meets various needs, and the design is chic and cool." In other words, it feels like "I want everything."

Personally, I was interested in the stand wallet and the wireless charging car mount. My car is a combination of iPhone and car audio without a car navigation system, so I like this kind of in-vehicle accessories.

If you are interested, why don't you visit Peak Design Tokyo store? Of course, there are a lot of camera-related accessories and bags, so I think you'll want a lot of them!
