When you’re traveling you’re most likely packing light and not worried about taking a bulky laptop. However, that does mean you can end up with just your smartphone for entertainment on lengthy bus rides.
There are many situations in which this would not pose a problem, but some bus journeys in South America, for example, can last as long as 24 hours. In that period of time, you may well want to watch some videos on your phone without having to prop it up against various objects before watching it fall over due to the vibrations of the bus.
That is where the Amigo Phone Stand comes in. You might think it goes against the principle of packing light to take a dedicated phone stand with you, but the beauty of the Amigo is it doubles as a cord minder. It’s incredibly small form factor means you will hardly notice its presence, aside from the fact it keeps your phone charger from becoming part of the cable spaghetti you’ve been cooking up in your backpack.
The square plastic device fixes to the bottom of your phone at 90 degrees, making for an L-shaped object capable of standing up itself. Now, you can watch your favorite shows to your heart’s content by placing your phone on the meal tray on the back of your seat.
Fend off travel boredom with the Amigo and you will hardly notice the hours pass on your way to your next adventure.
