Peak Design Mobile System Review (2023 EPIC Review)

[@Nomads.Nation]

Do you want to help me build a game-changing backpack? 👉🏼 nomadsnation.com/building-a-backpack

[@chrisgardill]

I got the PD phone case and tripod after watching this video and, several weeks later, am really pleased with both of them. I'm not a content creator but spend lots of time on video calls and find that the tripod works well for that purpose at home or the office that it goes into my tech pouch/backpack, and the phone case I've found to be durable and functional so far. I have travel coming up, so I've just ordered the slim wallet (since I have the tripod already) to use with that travel and daily commuting along with the vehicle mount for the truck. Keep up the great content!

[@Nomads.Nation]

thanks dude glad you like!

[@Notorious_Be_Right_Us]

The wallet is the must-have item in this video. I’ve tested Moft wallets, Apple wallets, and PD; PD is by FAR the best, and all of the headaches of not being able to store all my cards and quickly retrieve them have been resolved.

[@Nomads.Nation]

The quick retrieval on these wallets is next level

[@peterbernhard6087]

Does the Mobile Tripod fit into teh mobile Wallet or is it to big? Would be nice to fit like 2 Cards, the tripod, and a key inside the wallet.

[@peen2804]

@@peterbernhard6087it’s far, far to big to fit into the wallet lol

[@vettepwr23]

Did you get the stand or the slim version? Do you still have and what are thoughts almost 1 year later? Thanks.

[@V3lie]

Just an FYI, the Mobile Tripod tool DOES NOT adjust the legs. It only adjust the rigidness of the main module which are the three legs combined. You can't adjust each leg individually. Aside of that, great video Aaron.

[@Nomads.Nation]

appreciate the clarification Mr Dynamite ;)

[@tetsuei5928]

It's a bit of a shame that this review misses out on what I think is the defining feature of the entire thing which is the Slimlink. The magnets are nice which a ton of cases have but the positive mechanical locking of the Slimlink and how sleek it is, that to me is what makes this great. For your use case, even something like their Mobile Creator Kit which allows you to easily mount to say a backpack strap or a tripod is still one way you could use it even if you didn't ride bikes/motorcycles.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Thanks for expanding on this!

[@davidwillette4213]

Have you tested the Peak case with Popsocket MagSafe products and do they work well together?

[@Nomads.Nation]

I have not unfortunately. If you find out then please let us know!

[@arsonist_onfire]

I have both the new circle magsafe popsocket and the old oval one and they both work perfectly with the peak design phone case

[@DrLuisEsqueda]

I have the stand wallet, and i have a pro tip 😂, i dont like to use it attach to my cell phone, so instead i put coins in the back of the wallet and stay there with the magnets, so i always get cash with me

[@Nomads.Nation]

Great insight!! I also find myself rarely connecting recently them which is strange but also shows how versatile the wallet is!

[@nealhamamura4263]

Are there concerns about the strength of the magnets effecting the iPhone? I heard Apples does not like strong magnets.

[@Nomads.Nation]

I cannot say for sure, but hopefully someone more knowledgable from the community can help

[@CrispyTuckley]

Another great review, Aaron!

[@Nomads.Nation]

thanks so much!!

[@wick3dheathen]

So I have a standard ekster with the standard money clip but I’m liking this more ❤

[@Nomads.Nation]

its better fo sho

[@tatts4life838]

The fact that the charging stand only charges my phone and not my AirPods and watch in one charger is why I chose a different brand that does and folds up just as thin

[@Nomads.Nation]

I 100% agree. If it would charge my Airpods I would use this thing religiously

[@tandord491]

it does charges the airpods, but one at a time. either charge the phone or the airpods

[@tatts4life838]

@@tandord491 my post aged well. I ended up hating the other charger and bought their charger and have loved it ever since. I almost never need to charge my phone, watch, and AirPods at the same time

[@jacqulynjohnson653]

With the mobile tripod in place, are you able to charge the phone at the same time?

[@Nomads.Nation]

No, it would block the maglock charger

[@КристиянСтоянов-ъ6е]

Can I use the peak wallet with pitaka mag safe case cuz I dont feel like buying necw case only to use the wallet althought is dammn cool

[@Nomads.Nation]

Not sure tbh

[@АлександрКоваленко-р6р]

Thanks a lot 👍

[@Nomads.Nation]

My pleasure!

[@mr0ptimistic]

Will the mobile tripod work on a Pixel 7 without the PD case?

[@Nomads.Nation]

not sure, probably a great question to ask Peak Design customer service - plz let us know what they say!

[@mkphilly]

Seems to be a link prob, Aaron... ok it seems it's their site- tried going in directly

[@Nomads.Nation]

glad it's resolved!

[@Lucaemar]

Quite a few of these look really good, such a shame my Pixel 5a doesnt its own case :(

[@Nomads.Nation]

this system works for Pixel phones 🤔

[@Lucaemar]

@@Nomads.Nation They've got cases for 6, 6pro, 7 and 7pro - but no case for the 5a. I could use their universal adapter, but that doesnt seem as enticing imo

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@Lucaemar ahh makes sense, and yea, the universal adaptor doesn't seem as awesome

[@itzcain81]

can you do some small to medium bag revies that would work good for medical supplies please. i have kids and always need some med supplies like Band-Aid burn cream Neosporin Tylenol things like that and want a good quality bag like the ones you review. thanks ps i cant be the only one that carries a small to medium med kit.

[@Nomads.Nation]

For sure Jack! We are hoping to publish a 'best small backpacks' review sometime in 2023. If you need any recommendations in the meantime, feel free to ask :)

[@itzcain81]

@@Nomads.Nation thank you so much. I absolutely love your reviews, and the quality of the stuff/everything you review. it doesn't have too specifically have to be for medical, but it would work.

[@Nomads.Nation]

@@itzcain81 yes to manage your expectations it will not be specific for medical, but it will be about the best small bags on the market :)

[@Shanzanox]

Nice alex hormozi 😂

[@Nomads.Nation]

i dont know what this means but i love it

[@WAYNENYC100]

Quad Lock is much better than this. With quadlock it's much harder for a thief to just grab the phone and run off.

[@Nomads.Nation]

I’ll check it out

[@ChaseWatkins.]

Also, it should be mentioned the bike mount, moto mount, etc... are mounted with SlimLink (that little square on the back). It is a mechanical locking mount, not just the magnets.

[@Nomads.Nation]

appreciated!

[@vettepwr23]

Hello. Nice video. Did you say you prefer the stand version over the slim one? Also, what are your thoughts almost one year later. I ordered the slim one but I am thinking about the stand version now.

[@Nomads.Nation]

All have their pros and cons. I’ve since moved on to a different case but I have to cuz I’m always testing out new ones - I think you’ll dig the slim!

[@shleelm]

Always enjoy watching your introductions to the new products. Well designed way of presenting. Good Video production and please keep up the good work.

[@Nomads.Nation]

Much appreciated and will do!

[@oscarcazares2689]

I really love my PD case, the slim wallet is functional, but my favorite accessory is the mobile tripod. It's expensive but totally worth it imo

[@Nomads.Nation]

Hell yea, it’s a great tripod

[@murillomr7]

As a photographer I have some PD products and the quality and wisdom inside each product is amazing. I bought the cellphone case and I wondering to buy the wallet, thank you for this amazing review, It was really helpful!!

[@Nomads.Nation]

Glad to help!!

[@Luis24AE]

Hi Aaron, thanks for the comparison review. I was wondering- is the magnetic connection stronger on the wallet w/ stand vs the non-stand wallet? Thx.

[@Nomads.Nation]

thanks for watching! I can't say for sure, but my gut tells me they are basically the same

[@adamoc2431]

Has there been any issues/reviews on the strength of the magnets and how they may affect the phone? Compass? Camera?

[@Nomads.Nation]

Not from me, but if you find one be sure to leave us a link to check out 🙏🏽

[@jonathanbeck63]

While I like the look and feel of the Peak Design case, I believe the Moment case is better for attaching MagSafe products. At least that is my experience having used both on my Google Pixel 6. If you plan on sticking only with PD accessories, perhaps their case is the better choice. If you plan on using other products (such as an Anker wireless charger or something) I would recommend the Moment case.

[@Nomads.Nation]

nice! I haven't tested out any Moment products but I'll be sure to check the out 💪🏼

[@jonathanbeck63]

@@Nomads.Nation That would be great! Just to clarify what to watch out for: what I noticed is that while the vertical grip strength is equal (like lifting your phone off a table by the attachment), something about the texture of PD case allows some attachments to slide or twist very easily. Not sure if that makes sense but hopefully you will see what I mean if you get a chance to do a side-by-side comparison.

[@dudultalal]

You can totally charge your iPods on the wireless charger: just lay it flat !

[@Nomads.Nation]

haven't used an iPod in a long time lol

[@AlexMercadoGo]

lol, I’m guessing you mean AirPods

[@meekrodriguez6438]

Cool phones

[@Nomads.Nation]

thanks dude!
