The convenience of a tablet or smartphone device's small size makes it ideal to bring anywhere, and the KEYTINI stand helps to convert the miniature gadgets into [portable viewing screens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onze) for watching media hands-free. The stands allow consumers to watch movies, listen to music and read without having to hold the device. The added convenience of using the device hands-free provides the functionality of a television screen in a much smaller format.

The KEYTINI metallic stands are incredibly small and compact with a design that weighs in at 150-grams. This ensures that the stand is portable while the metallic material provides a durable and flat surface to keep tablets and [smartphones standing upright](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twelve-south-curve-nano). The angle of the stand can be adjusted so that the viewing height is always suited to the user's needs.
