Before purchasing the ShiftCam ProGrip I tried two other phone camera grips with bluetooth shutters available on Amazon - one for about $30 and one for about $40. I have concluded that when it comes to these devices, you get what you pay for.
I've had the ShiftCam ProGrip for a week and today I was able to spend an entire afternoon using it to shoot photos and video with my iPhone 13 Pro. The ProGrip holds the phone securely - I was holding it down by my side when I wasn't shooting and walking around and I had no concerns about the phone falling out.
When shooting, the grip is comfortable and the shutter button is well placed. After a little adjustment (loosening), the hand strap provides a secure means of holding the grip and the phone. I debated getting a wrist strap, just in case I dropped the phone while shooting, but with a properly adjusted hand strap I don't think I'll need a wrist strap.
The shutter release worked EVERY time. With the less expensive grips the shutter release only worked 50% to 75% of the time and changed the phone's volume the rest of the time, rendering those less expensive grips unusable for serious photography and frustrating even for casual snapshots.
The ShiftCam ProGrip easily rotates between landscape and portrait shooting without changing your grip, a nice feature. The less expensive grips require you to contort yourself to change orientation, as you would with a digital SLR, but doing that with a phone and a small grip is much more awkward than with an SLR.
The wireless charging feature of the ProGrip worked well (my iPhone 13 Pro is in an Apple Mag Safe case). Just press the charge button on the ShiftCam ProGrip with the phone mounted in the grip and the phone immediately begins charging. You can download a template for lining up your phone for charging but I didn't need it with the Mag Safe case (just align the circle on the case with the circle on the ProGrip). You can charge and shoot at the same time and the ProGrip appears to have good battery life.
My only complaint about the ProGrip is the price, but I've decided I'd rather spend the money for something that works very well. After investing $1,300 in a phone with an excellent camera, I had to ask myself what it's worth to be able to comfortably and securely use that phone to take pictures. I've decided the ShiftCam ProGrip is worth the money.

Keep your phone powered throughout the day and shoot up to 3x more footage with fast 15w wireless charging. Connect a second device via the included USB cable and charge both simultaneously.
Landscape / Portrait Mode
Switch from landscape to portrait without changing your grip. The 90° rotation on the clamp accommodates selfies, vlogging and storytelling on-the-go.
Wireless Shutter
The wireless shutter allows you to shoot comfortably with your index finger, and integrates perfectly with your native camera app.
Free-standing Charging Dock
Weighted for stability, and angled for video calls and hands free vlogging, ProGrip can be used as a tabletop dock in landscape or portrait mode.

A Good Way to Start Expanding Your Photography Skills
DSRLs are super cool but huge and just one more thing to carry. I've also been wanting an attachment like the ProGrip, so it can let me take photographs and video much more naturally like any DSLR camera. This is probably the closest product to what I was looking for. I can use just about any DSLR attachment, as you can see with the Cold Shoe Mounts, elbows and accessories. There are only two reasons why it didn't get a 5 star review, there is no zoom lever or buttons and the cold shoe mount they provide. just sucks. It's not metal and it has a hard time staying put and needs retightening. But overall it's a great product. Super happy.

Purchased this product for my hubby last Christmas and he loves it! He takes a lot of pics with his cell and this is a great addition for photo taking. Very easy to use and has a very strong grip on your phone so you don’t have to worry about it coming apart dropping your cell. Very comfortable in your hand and easy to reach buttons. Highly recommended!
