The smartphone is the most common everyday photography methods in use today, so the Shoulderpod S2 aims to make the process more comfortable for avid shutterbugs to appreciate. The mount consists of an adjustable mechanism for holding a smartphone in place and is designed to accommodate smartphones of all sizes including phablets. A [wooden grip handle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sony-gpvpt3-multifunction-shooting-grip) allows users to easily keep hold of their device as they walk around a new location to let them snap photos or capture video without running the risk of dropping their smartphone.

The Shoulderpod S2 [smartphone mount holder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leica-lux-grip) also features the ability to be [mounted onto a tripod](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silence-corner-mambapod) or rig to accommodate professional photos or video to be captured. The mount will streamline selfies and first-person videos to make the content highly shareable.
