SmallRig Mobile Video Cage Basic Edition for iPhone 16 Pro, Phone Cage with T-Mount Lens Backplate, TPU Soft Frame, for Video Shooting, Live Streaming, and Cinematic Filmmaking - 5008

This is a fantastic upgrade from all previous versions of their phone cage.If you’ve ever used a phone cage like this, you know the annoyance of having to remove the phone from its case, open the cage, slide the phone in, and reverse it when done. Not anymore!Now, it’s not just a phone cage; it comes with a phone case that can be kept on all the time. The case is actually very nice and offers great protection from drops and scratches.When ready to use the phone cage, the case snaps in! I love it! It’s so much easier to use, and there’s a much lower chance of my phone getting dropped or scratched.The quick-release handles are great. The ones from last year’s model even work with this. The dual handheld setup provides incredible stability, making my shots significantly smoother and more professional-looking. It minimizes shaky footage even without a gimbal for simpler movements. The handles feel comfortable and balanced in the hands, making longer shooting sessions much less fatiguing.The wireless button on the quick-release handle is a brilliant feature. Being able to trigger recording wirelessly by just pressing a button on the handle is convenient and helps avoid jarring the phone when starting or stopping a take. It connects seamlessly, and the quick-release function works flawlessly.Beyond stability, the cage itself is loaded with mounting points—cold shoes and 1/4”-20 threads galore! I can easily attach my microphone, LED lights, power bank, and other accessories. The build quality is top-notch, as expected from SmallRig—solid metal construction that feels durable and reliable.If you’re serious about mobile videography, vlogging, live streaming, or creating content for social media with your iPhone 16 Pro Max, this setup is an outstanding investment. It provides stability, flexibility, and a professional feel.Highly recommended!

I'm a documentary filmmaker and experimenting with shooting on my iPhone 16pro. This cage is very well made and designed. I added a Small Rig hand grip that accommodates a 2TB SSD, a Kondor Blue hub and a Small Rig power bank holder. The only issue is sourcing appropriate USB-C cables to neatly tie everything together. I'm yet to use it on a project, but so far it is working splendidly.

This small rig its a really high quality and fits perfect my iPhone 16 pro max, this is a really good addition if you take videos.

Good enough quality. But, it’s not as functional as I thought it might be.

Perfect way to turn your 16 ProMax into a camera rig. Plenty of mount points for a light, mics etc. Bluetooth shutter control works perfectly. Very sturdy frame

La verdad me llegó en un empaque poco estético y era para un regalo, no lo volvería a comprar para sus prestaciones su precio es muy elevado b

Very sturdy and fits my phone perfectly. I would recommend this product to anybody that’s into film and shooting film with their iPhone.

Upgrading to an iPhone 16 Pro from a 14 Pro required the purchase of this item to go with all of the other fine Small Rig accessories I own. Same quality I'm used to from them.
