Padlette Grip, Handle, Holder for iPad Mini Compatible with Kindle Paperwhite, Fire or Any Tablet or e-Reader with Screens 9 inches or Smaller. (D2 Pink)

I have used this for just over a month and have noticed a reduction in wrist fatigue. It is a little funky to get used to, and unfortunately the most useful way to strap this onto my samsung note 8 if holding it portrait (tall) mode makes the strap rub against the power button. Works great holding it in landscape (wide) though.I was playing with the strap on my wrist today, because I am a fidgeter, and just discovered that I can use this as a wrist mount for my smartphones! As an uber nerd, I was trying to find a wrist carrier ala Star Trek communicator and most styles are jogging armbands that go on the bicep and completely cover the phones with clear plastic because they are targeted for joggers, gasp!, making them fairly useless for actually taking notes, texting, googling, etc. I use my phones for all kinds of work stuff (and tablet too). I am able to fit the center strap of the Padlette over my wrist and secure the phone with the outside straps. It's a bit chunky looking and my boyfriend is chuckling at me right now, but I am totally geeked. It works for my work iphone and my personal Samsung Note 3, both with Otterboxes.I am buying the D3 in a few moments to see if I can somehow strap the tablet onto my wrist and be hands free. I will get the purple one to be the stylish trend-setter of wearable electronics haha.

This works OK. The rubber has that rubber band feel - is not slick - which is good for keeping it from accidentally slipping off hand. The band for hand insert as shown in the picture humps up due to the small size of the Fire. BTW, it only works as illustrated - not if the unit is horizontal.Because of the drag of the rubber band, I have to kind of wiggle my hand to get four fingers in and it fits snuggly. I have very small hands so not sure how those with larger hands would like how tight it would be on the Fire. I have to maneuver it off with my right hand also - no quick slide off.Using it does provide a better balance and security experience than holding at the edges with fingers - again, only vertically. I have RA and so holding the somewhat weighty Fire it up at the edges gets rather crampy after a while. This helps with that. I just don't like having my left hand trapped in the rubber band for very long.This holder does not work with the Kindle Keyboard unit - it interferes with the keys.

These are great if you have devices that don’t have a huge variety of cases. I have a Boox e-reader and the oblong padlette is the perfect size. Also, they sent a tiny version for free that is great for strapping around my AirPods and keeps them from sliding to the bottom of my bag.

Like this a lot - very handy and provides a superior grip - but it would be better without the bulging part in the back. Just a flat silicon band would make it easier to carry in a bag and also make it easier to use it with a simple "picture stand" type tablet stand. The bulge gets in the way and makes that difficult. (So it seems - I've never tried it. Can anyone recommend a simple plastic ipad stand that works with the Padlette D2?)When holding, I usually ignore the bulging out loop and slide my fingers under one of the flat parts of the band - just the very tips of some of my fingers. My iPad mini basically melds to my hand and they become one unit. Nifty. But then there is the loop if you want a more flexible grip.Also can't lay it flat on its back, though if you position it properly the bulging silicon folds somewhat and the tablet is in a pretty good position (portrait) for typing, etc. It's a bit lopsided, though, which is kind of annoying.All in all, I like it. Somehow, though, it is difficult to find exactly what I want.

Fits great for my Kindle Paperwhite. Easy to hold, but not quite perfect - the rubber is comfortable but sometimes the edge will eventually press down on the skin between my fingers. It's a little looser than I expected, but I think it will keep the Kindle from dropping to the floor if I should fall asleep while reading. With a little tweaking of the position I can get it to where I can use it comfortably with either hand, so it was just what I needed. My Kindle has the origami cover which I need for a stand, so that means I can't keep this permanently attached to it, but it can't be used as a stand anyway, and at least it's easy to put on and take off.

Watch out - The Padlette D2 for the iPad Mini requires much more pull to stretch it over the iPad mini when compared to the larger Padlette D3 for the iPad. It sticks out too much on the back and is awkward to hold. It was probably developed for the smaller Kindles that are under 7 inches. The iPad mini is larger than 7 inches. The Padlette.com website states -- Dee Two Designed for all 7-inch tablets like the iPad mini -- It's just bogus marketing. So my 11 year old won't be using it because it's a bit of a hassle to remove whenever he wants to use a case.

One of the downsides of the iPad, including many Apple products, is that Apple seems to have a fetish with making things smaller and smaller, and thinner and thinner. So, holding my iPad, especially in my bed, has always been cumbersome, and uncomfortable. Now after using this rubber-band-esque grip, I can finally hold my iPad! It's not immediately intuitive how to use it, but you get the hang of it early on. I had read that the biggest downside of the D2 was that it did not let the iPad sit flat on its back. I thought nothing of it since the complaint mostly made no sense to me. After using it, I totally get it. The D2 does not let the iPad sit flat on its back, and that can be annoying. However, being able to hold my iPad comfortably, outweighs that issue for me!

I use this on my I Pad at work as I have to walk around with it all day part the job these days. It makes holding it much more comfortable and also there is less chance of you dropping it or it accidentally slipping out your hand.

Great

und doch so genial. Ich bin sehr zufrieden, nutzen tue ich den "Griff" für ein Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4. Es spannt zwar ganz schön, erfüllt aber seinen Zweck.Pro:- Super zum einfachen Halten, egal in welcher Position (sogar für das Querformat ist es super). Einfache Konstruktion, aber jeden Cent wert!- Es kann leicht verschoben werden und hält dennoch. Selbst beim schmalen Rahmen des Samsung Tablets liegt es nach Justierung nicht auf dem Display.Contra:- Der Preis ist recht hoch, es ist sein Geld aber wert, da es sich nicht um billiges Gummi handelt.- Beim oben genannten Tablet liegt es schnell mit Druck auf dem An-/Ausschalter, daher ist mein Tablet beim ersten versuch heruntergefahren, da ich es aber selten entferne, ist dies kein Problem.---Ich würde es jederzeit wieder kaufen und werde es im Freundes- und Bekanntenkreis weiterempfehlen!

se avessi letto prima la recensione (cosa che faccio sempre prima di ogni acquisto) non avrei speso inutilmente questi 20 euro. La qualità della gomma sarà anche buona ma non è affato comodo per mantenere il tablet. Inoltre non è adattabile in tutti su due i lati in quanto il mio Asus 7 pollici ha i comandi in alto a dx che sarebbero inutillizabili perchè coperti dal Padlette. Come ultima cosa lo trovo COSTOSISSIMO. E' la prima volta che resto veramente delusa da un acquisto fatto su Amazon dove in genere compro di tutto.

Das Produkt ist für uns genial! Wir setzten die iPad mini als mobile Kassen ein und mit diesem Halter liegt das Teil gut und sicher - und im richtigen Winkel - in der Hand (sagen meine Mitarbeiter) und passen auch noch in die Kellnertaschen/-holster (da sie nur minimal auftragen). Die tolle Idee muss man allerdings auch teuer bezahlen! Qualität ist aber auch gut, nach 2 Wochen Einsatz (13 - 15 Std. / Tag!!!) keinerlei Probleme (keine "Ausleiern", keine "Risse", ...). Es gibt für unseren Einsatzzweck keine gescheite Alternative. Übrigens werden die Halter von ca. 20 Mitarbeitern genutzt, von der zierlichen Dame mit noch zierlicheren Händen bis zum kräftigen Herrn mit Händen wie Schaufeln. Alle sind happy. Klare Kaufempfehlung! (Preis könnte mal reduziert werden.)
