The 'Orbita' iPhone mount is an aftermarket accessory for iPhone 12 and 13 series smartphone users that will enable them to keep the device within view at all times when working from their laptop. The mount works by being affixed onto the rear of a laptop or monitor where it can be swiveled into position when required. The mount is equipped with magnets that will work seamlessly with the Apple MagSafe technology on the rear of the aforementioned smartphones to keep them in view at all times.
The 'Orbita' iPhone mount has been designed by Andrea Tortone and would work seamlessly for taking calls, using the smartphone as a supplemental display or simply monitoring for incoming notifications.
