Reddit mentions: The best tablet mounts

I don't know what all her factors are, but I would think that the most accessible way to play the Switch would be to use regular Switch and a larger TV screen via the "full" Dock, with an appropriately ergonomic controller. The Switch Lite screen is pretty small. Plenty of people--even people whose sight isn't great--can still use it enjoyably because, as a handheld, you can hold it pretty close to your face. However, that means you're using the built-in controls, which are decent, but probably not the most ergonomic for people with big hands and (possibly?) knuckle issues.

If you want to use an external controller, you'll have to use a stand. If you want to use the 8bitdo adapter, that stand will have to also be a mini-dock with USB ports. In either case, it requires a table or flat surface and you'll need enough room for you to hold the controller at a comfortable level and then have the Switch screen at some distance that's likely further away than that...unless you do something interesting, like sit on a low chair at a table, having the Switch more at head or neck level, and then hold the controller closer down by your lap.

Summary: the Lite works great as a handheld, but might be a little small as a tabletop console.

Another option for optimally positioning the Switch without worrying about your table level is a gooseneck stand like this one.

As far as controllers go, is this the one she likes?

A PS4 controller matches that layout. So does the 8bitdo SN30 Pro+. Keep in mind if you think the gooseneck stand idea is interesting, you probably couldn't use that with the Lite's charging dock (which has the USB ports the 8bitdo PS4 adapter would need), so you'd be limited to controllers that functioned directly with the Switch, sans adapters. So the SN30 Pro+ would still be an option.

Depends on the age of your kids but this was the best road trip purchase ever. My kids were able to watch movies on the tablet (Netflix lets you download them to watch online) and play the switch as well.

Tried freezing water balloons for the cooler so we could reuse them, but I'd recommend legit balloons (egg sized or so) instead in the future since they're thicker.

Mostly stuck to the rest of my original post and the trip went great! I hope yours is as well, and I hope to hear an update about it :)

Any tempered glass screen protector from a reputable maker for one.

The Pro controller is one of the best feeling controllers I've ever had.

A high end battery pack if you can afford it. Should support USB-C/PD charging. I managed to snag this RAVPower battery on sale.

For Splatoon players who like split Joycon play, grips can be helpful to add comfort. I personally have Nintendo's official battery grip, provides a pretty nice girth extension.

And I guess a case, though beanies are pretty convenient to slip your console into.

Edit: Would also like to add a tablet mount for lazy bed gamers. Position it above your face, take off the Joycons, and relish in the comfort while feeling like you're in Wall-E.

>I'd be interested in your tablet recommendation that is worth spending 150-200-300 and is wildly better to read manga than a Fire 8

If your absolute limit is $300, based on my personal experience, I recommend Samsung Galaxy Tab s2..

Long version recommendation:

• Any tablet that is 9.5 inches or bigger. Bigger screen size just looks better for reading manga, I dislike reading manga on a 8.5 inch screen size.
  
• Make sure to have a resolution of 1920x1080 or higher unless you are okay with reading low quality manga from mangahere or other sites with awful resolution.
  
• I recommend anything with 32gb memory and then buy a SD card for more memory. Downloading a lot of manga will take up a lot of space, so you want them to go straight to the SD card. You can get away with a 16gb, but then you will max out your internal storage very easily just by essential apps. Don't bother with anything less than that.
  
  If you want to shave down specs to save money, Samsung Galaxy Tab E is a good choice. I emphasize on screen size because I feel it really enhances the manga reading experience.
  
  Whether or not you decide my above opinion is worthless and decide to get a Amazon Fire Tablet to save money, I will also suggest getting a Tryone Gooseneck Tablet Stand and a Bluetooth mouse so you can read manga on bed or whatever. It helps getting the perfect angle on how comfortable you want to read your manga and sometime swiping on the tablet with your fingers is annoying.
  
  

I reallllly need a license plate frame, and this one is really awesome and has Prime! I could also really use this trunk organizer thing.

And this tablet car mount looks very nice and has amazing reviews!

Hope I was able to help you in your search a bit =) Thanks so much for the contest!!

I have it in the kitchen, seems to make the most sense. It's nice that it automatically shows upcoming calendar events without asking. Offers up some lighter news stories which is neat. My kid likes watching nature videos or calling Nana. I like operating the smart home without having to talk to it when everyone is sleeping. If I used Amazon Photos it could be a good photo frame. It can do recipies and YouTube but neither are convenient enough to use often. If you already have a dot you know most of what it can do. The screen just seems like a bonus and not worth the huge price premium. I would never have bought it personally but it was free for making a skill in October.

If you don't need the special tablet dock for ahow mode I'd probably look at mounting it to the wall. I use these as a mount and this as a low profile charger for my phone and they work great.

I bought an Arkon tablet windshield mount from Amazon that I'm really happy with. I use my tablet as a GPS/ music player/ speedometer if I'm feeling fancy and this one held up well; it held my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" in an Otterbox very well, even when it got pretty rough and bumpy. When I lost one of the little 'legs' for it, customer service was excellent and actually shipped me an updated unit- a while new mount- for free.

I haven't seen anything about the one in the trailer. There are some third party options, but none of them seem any better than a universal tablet mount. I haven't used one, so I can't speak to how well they work, but something like this (Bestrix Universal Headrest Cradle Car Mount) is probably the best you can do until they release an official one.

If you're unable to sit up to play games sometimes, I'm going to go ahead and recommend getting one of these bad boys - https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Compatible-Smartphones-Tablets/dp/B07218SK42/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?keywords=trygone+gooseneck&qid=1550565991&s=gateway&sr=8-2-spell
It's compatible with the Switch and lets you use a pro controller or joycon grip controller while laying flat. Honestly, one of ths best purchases I've ever made for $20. Playing games at 180 degrees is insanely comfortable. Plus, if you get a half-ok android tablet, you can use it to stream games from a PC or PS4 easily enough. Hope this helps. :)

Dude, you need a tablet holder, it will 100% solve your problems. I got this one:

Tryone Gooseneck Tablet Stand
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_h-TFDbXDM9JKF


And it is fantastic. I lay on my back and put the Switch in it, position it over my head, and hold the joy-cons in my hands with my arms relaxed. Ok, it kind of makes me feel like one of the humans in Wall-E, but it's sooooo comfortable.

You could also use it to hold the Switch in front of you when you're sitting up. Detach the joy-cons and prop up the Switch and play all day. I think it would really help you.

I saw many people buy it from this [Link] (https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG) but since I live in Asia, I just bought one from some Chinese company. For mine it's fully flexible and can hold the weight very well (I bought mine for like year and a half now). And if my Chinese knock off work that good I think this one will work fine as well

There are also flash light apps you can use. Most of them are just white screen.

I know of iOS there is one flash light app that you can pick the colors you want blue, red, green and so on.

What might be a good idea is to buy used iPad 1s as those are easy to lug around. And they will be cheaper year by year. You can ask other people to hold them for you or get some kind of stand.

So I've been eyeing up one of those gooseneck clamps for the switch (like this one), but my main concern that I haven't seen addressed too much is how much pressure it places on the switch.

Does anyone have anything like this and can comment on if the pressure seems too great/it feels like it might bend the switch after prolonged use? Also if anyone can recommend one thats good, that would be great.

I got the Butterfox carrying case. Sturdy, holds 19 games, and a pocket for accessories. Great case for a great price.

If you want to use the Switch in tabletop mode, definitely go for the Hori Playstand. The Switch's built-in kickstand has several issues: it's flimsy, blocks the charging port when set up and only has one viewing angle. The Playstand fixes all of those things and yes, it does fit in the Butterfox case's accessories pouch.

If you want to be playing it in the car, you'll want a car charger. I personally got the PowerA charger. I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but it is officially licensed by Nintendo. I also got this car mount; just make sure you put the Switch into it in such a way that you don't block the holes on the back. Those are not speakers, they're air intakes and you never want to block them while the system is running (you're fine in sleep mode).

I am using MotionDetector and tasker. I guess it is a little hacky in that is a bit complicated to get it just right but it runs on 3 screens and every now and then if it isn't waking up(maybe one screen every week or so), I just reboot. You can google other peoples instructions but I think this is the clearest. Basically it works like MotionDetector looks for motion and triggers tasker to wake up the display. Nice sensitivity settings and stuff. Doesn't need much light.

I bought 10.5" galaxy s tablets on ebay(2560 x 1600 resolution) for $100-150 and mounted to the wall with these(get the 2.0 like the link). I put in recessed outlets behind the tablets and put a light sensitive night light in one of the outlets plugings so it has back lighting. I also put in the outlets with the usb built in and got the 90 degree angled short cords to make it clean.

May not be exactly what you are looking for but I’ve been using this mount with my 11” pro and have been very impressed with how easy it is to set up and get the perfect viewing angle.


Gooseneck Tablet Holder, Lamicall Tablet Stand: Flexible Arm Clip Tablet Mount Compatible with iPad Mini Pro Air, Nintendo Switch, Samsung Galaxy Tabs, Fire 8 10 More 4.7-10.5" Devices - Gray https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GQNRQ86/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Dpi0CbV6VHNF0

I bought a gooseneck tablet holder that I hook up to my bed frame so I don’t even have to hold the switch in bed. Most comfortable gaming experience ever.

Edit: adding link to the product below. Looks out of stock right now but there are similar ones on amazon. Only feedback I have is I wish it were 6 inches longer, but that’s nitpicking. It’s a great product for a lazy guy like me.

https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B071HQJ1LS?psc=1

Along with something like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01MZAUPD6/ref=pd_aw_sim_23_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=Z4TK98THH470EXZEFRQ0&dpPl=1&dpID=514gjFeuUQL

Should have ya set up pretty good. As long as you have enough joy-cons you should be good to go.

Saw someone else on here use these mounts with some success. I'm pretty happy with them. Tryone Gooseneck Tablet Stands. This chair has a slide out leg rest that I like so I couldn't center mount the keyboard and trackball.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_JFaUAbZ08R0GG

Not exactly the same, but something like this does a very similar job and works great (that's the one I bought). Fixes firmly to anything within a certain width.

If you have somewhere to clip a mount then this one from Amazon or something similar is really good too! They're very sturdy and supports phones/tablets too. You can mount it right up to your head level which makes it very comfortable use as you don't have to tilt your head.

Edit: I just realised someone posted the same mount in a separate comment already, but I'll just reinforce that this is an amazing purchase I guess!

It's [Mumba Nintendo Switch case] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072M2G7S8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and I also have this screen protector. I don't know how comfortable grip is. I haven't used handheld mode ever since I got the pro controller. But it seems very sturdy and got 5 star reviews on amazon.


fyi try this goose neck mount if you want to play on the bed! I love this one when I'm feeling super lazy. But it's pain in the ass to adjust and put the switch on the mount. Maybe there is better one someone else can suggest.


Edit: forgot to mention, you cannot use the stand when its on the case! I wish it has a stand built in on the case. Also I dont know if it fits in the dock because I took it apart and replaced it with smaller dock.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AUQ33LG and yeah it works pretty nicely! Definitely some movement when tapping, but it's perfect for how I use it, as music control.

My friend, your doing it all wrong... put the switch in this, hold the joy cons by your sides. Enjoy maximum laziness.

Pro tip: have your mom bring the hot pockets to you, so you never have to get up!!

Tryone Gooseneck Tablet Mount Stand/ iPad Stand Holder/ Nintendo Switch Mount, Bolt Clamp with Spring Grip for iPad or Android Devices, 38 Inches Overall Length https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07218SK42/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_XVVTzbDWC3V8Q

This is the closest I've seen with pretty good reviews, pretty sure you could use it on a headrest

\> I'd like to play in bed before I go to sleep.

Imma bout to blow your mind.

Get a "gooseneck" mount and attach it to your nightstand assuming you have one. This is the one I use:

Tryone Gooseneck Tablet Stand

I pull out the top drawer of my nightstand and mount it to the side of the drawer, which is a nice flat surface for the grip to attach to. It's adjustable but stable, as long as you aren't touching the device. If you're using a wired controller via USB OTG it can sometimes wobble if you pull on the cable but that's probably a fixable issue. It's strong enough to hold a phone or a tablet. Can't recommend it enough.

a mounted holder has worked pretty well for me. bonus: it holds phones/ipads/nintendo switches as well.

​

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AUQ33LG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01EMMKI4O/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This holder works perfectly. The neck is sturdy enough that you don't have to worry about it drooping over time and I've not once been worried it was going to fall out of the clip. The neck is also loooong so, no matter how you lay, you can get it in the perfect position. I've been using it for about 8 months.

Pretty easy! Not sure about eBay but if you’re okay with Amazon, I recommend this one:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07218SK42/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ifj9AbKB0RM4A

Yeah I have a gooseneck tablet stand and I love it! When I got the flu I clamped it to my headboard so I could still play Dragon Quest XI haha. The one I Have is "Tryone Gooseneck Tablet Stand, Tablet Mount Holder for iPad iPhone Series/Nintendo Switch/Samsung Galaxy".

Fine, fine, when I made the comment I was on my phone, haha.

One I'm using currently is Tryone Gooseneck Tablet Stand, UK amazon link, US amazon link. Reason why it has so many reviews is probably because it came out in 2016 and goes on discount every so often (I got mine for around £10 during a lightning deal for example). Don't over tighten it,, and bend it into a S or circle shape for best stability; if it's straight, it will wobble like mad, haha.

There's probably better ones out there, but this does the job for me. You can always alter it by sticking memory foam on the sides where it clasps the switch so it doesn't grab it so tightly if you want. :D

Ok so this is working perfectly for a car mount if anyone is interested: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01554PVDQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Just get a gooseneck mount instead, like this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_.QQkDb1HH7Q1W

The labo VR only supports a few games and it’s not the greatest quality for long play sessions. You also can’t leave out the lenses because they hold it all together. Go with a gooseneck mount instead, I have one attached to my nightstand next to my bed and it’s been awesome.

While you're in the market for a switch, I'd suggest taking a look and seeing if a Tryone Gooseneck is something you'd be interested in having. I attach mine to my bed head. Best way to play in bed.

https://www.amazon.com.au/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG

Here is the set up I got:

Arkon SM517 Windshield Mount for 7-Inch Tablets
~$12 bucks. Work suitably.

I also got CoPilot Live Premium and it's better than my Garmin GPS.


I did also get a 2 amp charger cause it needs some mad power.

1 Port USB Car Charger 2.1A - Black

And I had a sandbag type mount from the Garmin.
Bracketron UFM-100BL Nav-Mat GPS Friction Dash Pad

I like it! Good luck!

I use this when i wanna play in bed.

https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Cellphone-Android/dp/B01AUQ33LG

I've bought this for slower games like RPGs and stuff so i can lay down and have the screen above me. Works great.

I highly recommend purchasing one of these:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01EMMKI4O

It allows me to play my switch with my pro controller in the perfect position while in bed.

My sedentary hobbies predate my IC issues, so I always have a handheld gaming console nearby. My 3DS gets the most use although I also recently picked up a gooseneck stand for my Switch so I can play more comfortably in bed. When I'm flaring, I stick to relaxing games like puzzlers (Picross) and laid back sims (Stardew Valley).

Edit: added link

I use my Nexus7 for gps on long trips and it works great. I built the mount out of two different mounts. The idea came from somebody else on here and it works great. The one is a normal tablet mount for a car and the other is a neat one that attaches to the CD slot of the stereo. The navigation works great but you'll need an internet connection to get it started, I use a wifi tether from my Galaxy Nexus

I've had it for almost a year and I can play my switch comfortably in my bed

I know you're asking for a mount, but just wanted to suggest a holder;
https://www.amazon.com/iKross-Cellphone-Adjustable-Extended-Smartphone/dp/B00F0IQTE8/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1482516524&sr=8-5&keywords=phone+cup+holder
Have a 2016 and got it in the cup holder closest to the dash. Very adjustable, comes with two type of holders; phone and tablet. Base can expand for a snug fit.
Can slightly get in the way of rowing gears, but isn't bad.

I have this in my car, and I love it! It is so unique and functional. It makes me feel like I'm a jet pilot! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F0IQTE8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_J83qyb1510CTW

The one I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01AUQ33K2 I highly recommend! Super durable and inexpensive.

Not to shill but I got this one a few months ago and have had zero problems with it. Some mounts you gotta be careful too cuz they might scratch the edge of your switch this one has a silicone ish padding on the edges that increases friction between it and your switch for grip but is also not a harder material than the plastic they use to manufacture a switch. I'm sure there are other just as good goosenecks and mounts out there but this one has done me well.

​

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AUQ33LG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Also highly recommend a gooseneck clamp for it. You can position the screen midair in front of your face even laying down. Great for when you're feeling too shitty to even sit up enough to see a standing screen, but still want to play. Should clamp onto one of the handles by the head just fine. May need a longer charging cord, though.

A used 10 inch tablet and a stand like this might be a better option than using your phone and a projector to watch movies in bed. I'm pretty sure those cheap projectors suck, picture quality-wise, and you can still use your phone normally while watching a movie.

This holder costs USD $20 on Amazon. Haven't tried it myself, but looks good!

Separately, there's always duct tape. ;-)

It's this model. It'll expand to fit any cupholder nicely.

> too cumbersome or eventually an arm falls asleep

Are you kidding me? The Switch was precisely made to overcome this. Buy something like this, play with controllers detached (one in each hand). Boom. Now you can play with your arms laying down.

This is what I want to use My cup holders are pretty low so I think this would be great. They have one half the size too.

A thread a long time ago could not identify them and concluded that the show made them custom.

There are certainly other things like it if you search for "tablet arm" or something like this https://www.amazon.com/CTA-Digital-Tabletop-Tablets-PAD-TAM/dp/B01BIJYJ80

This is the one I have. It holds my iPad without any problems, will work for any device.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BX5YU7Y

Also, I recommend The Home Remote over Action Tiles. It's free and has a completely customizable interface. The developer is quick to respond to questions on the support forum, too. That being said, I'm not sure about installing it on Kindle Fire.
http://thehomeremote.com/

Yes. Since it is such a competitive game, I really feel gimped in handheld mode. So much so that if I know I'm going to play it when I'm traveling, I bring a pro controller with me and do "table top" mode. Also, the motion controls don't really work well when reclining in handheld mode, so I also use this goose neck mount (Amazon link) for when I'm splatooning in bed ( ͡º ͜ʖ ͡º).

I recommend looking into a flexible tablet stand. I have seen others on here who use these and really like them.

May I suggest something like this if you have something to anchor it to next to the bed?

Otherwise there's ones out there that have a base that can sit on the floor and you can maneuver the bendy cable to your comfortable eye level.

This is the mount I have. Works pretty good.

Did you google "iPad Tripod Mount"?

This is the first hit I got. Looks meh, frankly. Second hit is a video, didn't click it.

This is the third hit I got from Google. That one looks really nice.

Do I need to show you how the internet works? :-)

By the way, what University? You guys really use iPads to do photography? Back in my day, we had Canon New F-1's and T90's on our University newspaper, top-of-the-line stuff. Several of the newspaper staff went on to get Journalism degrees and are now pro photojournalists. Anyhow, I digress.

If I can advice you something to play/look videos in bed it's this. I have two of them and it's close to perfect :-) https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?keywords=tablet%2Bholder%2Bbed&qid=1554443282&s=gateway&sr=8-4&th=1&psc=1

My current setup. On week 3 and everything has been solid.

Enjoy!

It might be priced awkwardly for your budget, but a tablet holder could be useful. I've been using one to play until I have enough money to get a new low input lag TV. This way I can still use my pro controller. You could make up the difference in your budget with a gift card

The issue with car mount ones is that they require two attach points to be stable, are very short, and are very inflexible. You'd have to either remove the entire thing or never sit up in bed.

You'd be better off going with a floor stand than attempting to attach to a lamp. Unless your lamp is bolted to the floor or weighs a ton, it's not going to be able to support the weight of a tablet.

Mine broke because I didn't have a flat surface to attach it to near the bed, if you do it's much, much more stable and unlikely to break. There are also better brands out there, and more expensive holders.

Basically there's a huge market for this stuff already, but no ones found the definitive solution (unless you pay $200+ for one that is).

This thing.

Just got it a couple days ago. Really works great. That's a 10" Samsung tablet for reference.

Something like this might work.

I would also recommend trying a gooseneck tablet holder. I use this one.

https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1536263407&sr=1-3&keywords=tablet+gooseneck

http://www.amazon.com/Damage-free-Tablet-Dockem-Tablets-version/dp/B00BFIAB82/ref=pd_bxgy_pc_img_z

I think you'll need to buy two packs for your setup to work like mine. Look at my picture and you'll notice that the mount on the right is rotated and is actually a second left-side mount. I did this because it allows easier access to the charging port and there is a built-in wire clip that holds the wire in place snugly.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0148WQKNQ/ I ordered this one. Worked pretty well when testing it out.

I use a Tryone brand gooseneck mount in my bed. That could work pretty well in a car, I'd wager.

Whatever games you play I hope you have access to one of these or at least a way to get one.

I use this one with my S9+ and Nintendo Switch: link. Works great

Here's the arm!

The cable is just a braided Anker 6ft cable. So honestly not too expensive at all!

if you walk they make some cool phone holders that can clip onto you bag. Just use your bag as the tripod. something like this

There are a lot to choose from, you have to skim through reviews to be sure the switch will fit in it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074C1VFZX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_.wSFDb9M0MN6T

This is what I use.

Maybe you could try and find a tablet mount that will fit the DS. That one is just an example. You could have the mount under the DS stuck to the table, and then be able to rotate the DS into the block as you tried. It might give you better control on clicking the buttons independantly. You could just rotate your hand to click them. It would depend how smooth the rotation on the mount is though.

i haven't had any experience with the 12.9 however i think the size itself is perfect for most people.

​

the holder itself is https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BIJYJ80

This is my stand but I don't recommend it its pretty flimsy and actually scratched the wood on my backboard for my bed.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004M8ST36/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Adjust to fit my n4 as well.

Ha! i've had both these exact thoughts. Already looked at these flexible desk arms for my ipad on amazon. And i've got some peg board in the garage I thought about putting up.

I use this, https://www.amazon.com/iKross-Smartphone-Adjustable-Extended-Samsung/dp/B00F0IQTE8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1503505009&sr=8-2&keywords=ikross+phone+holder I drive all day with GPS directions and it is very comfortable to use

I am using this and it is good.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F0IQTE8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I don't own it, but I will buy it soon. Something like this:

https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG

Custom built for commercial. Thought about it and the lack of availability and the multiple options required for all vehicles will make this interesting.

This might work: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010GS5YL0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_b3VQybCXK7ADN

I just purchased this one at the recommendation of another Redditor, been using it since Monday and it seems pretty sturdy. I'm going to post my battlestation later on when I figure out my cable management.

Using a flexible arm mount found on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GQNRQ86/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's attached to one of my wall-mounted monitor arms

There is this great thing that was popular on reddit when the switch had been out for a while, it was like an arm you mount to your bed or nightstand, with a movable part, that could hold the switch.

Here is the one I am planning on buying:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_wBZPBbE9C7JCJ

I have the Hori stand, it has been handy quite a few times and fits in most carrying cases.

Got a Tryone gooseneck to hook on my exercise bike too. Works prety well for the Switch, recommended to me by some other Redditors.

I use this arm. It's well articulated but stays put unlike the flexible ones.

Lying down = Tryone Gooseneck stand. Way more comfortable than trying to support the Switch's weight while on your back.

Would something like this work?

I was hoping that was the case.

Maybe this?

Product page for those legitimately interested

If you have the cash I highly suggest investing in a goose neck for the switch.

They're about $20, though there should be some cheaper options out there. allows you to more easily position your switch and leaves the bottom unblocked to keep it charging.

Just throwing it out thet but would you possibly have somewhere to attach a goose neck? I used to play with the Switch on my belly till I came across this and haven't looked back :)

Something like this? http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005DZT9UO/ref=redir_mdp_mobile

It is mounted. I'm using an old LG tab X i like it because you can lock any specific app so passengers can't look through the tablet.

This is the mount I'm using. Macally Car Headrest Mount Holder for Apple iPad Pro/Air/Mini, Tablets, Nintendo Switch, iPhone, Smartphones 4.5" to 10" Wide with Dual Adjustable Pos https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0148WQKNQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_v5tLa7qpTRRyc

Theres actually a post about it on the new page right now from someone that bought this one. Looks like you need to attach it to your headboard.

I've been using this stand. Definitely recommend it.

https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1540137031&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=gooseneck+stand&dpPl=1&dpID=31pMQqjCrtL&ref=plSrch

I see a lot of people recommending those gooseneck switch/tablet holders (something like say this: https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG ) so you can position it so the Switch is front of your face whatever position you're in, even flat on your back.

https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG/

Other kinds out there, find one that looks like it would mount to what you have near your bed.

What about something like a gooseneck clamp?
https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Cellphone-Android/dp/B01AUQ33LG/
Coil it up on itself, clamp it to a chair, your shoe, etc. Coil it up to store.

There are goose neck mounts available. [Something like this] (https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=gooseneck+mount+switch&qid=1555594039).

Heads up, if you have a little extra space in your carry on, you can also get a gooseneck tablet holder, which will be more stable and functional if you find yourself somewhere without a flat surface.

I got this one, though if you have a Five Below nearby, they've got shorter ones for $5 sometimes, they just don't stock them online

I bought one of thesefor my car tablet. Totally worth it.

PERSONALLY I use this

It holds it very tight from left and right (doesn’t cover exhaust on top) however I can’t guarantee if there will be any long term effects or not. I bought warranty for switch and my phone is a few generations ago so I don’t really care. But I probably won’t use it if I have an iPhone XS

I use a gooseneck tablet stand. This exact model actually.

There is usually somewhere to attach this thing to such that it sits right at eye level.

I used this for the 10h flight to Alaska and it worked well.

Oh, nah. I've got one of those mountable, adjustable goose neck tablet mount things.

This: https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG

I put the switch in there and mount the thing on the side of the wall. I lean back, keep the joycons above water, and totally just lay back and go. Thing's got an iron grip and I love it.

It's much like reading in the tub, it's not that difficult to keep your arms above the water line and in the off chance I dropped anything, the only casualty would be a joycon. No data, no console, etc.

https://www.amazon.com/Tryone-Gooseneck-Nintendo-Samsung-Overall/dp/B01AUQ33LG

This was just the first result so may not be the best - I just play in handheld mode if it's in bed, but I usually only get into bed when it is time for me to sleep.

I've got a very similar mount in my van. My kids play the Switch on it every time we have a car ride longer than an hour. No issues here. The arm is very sturdy and doesn't seem to sound all that much.

I bought one of those so my phone would stop crashing into my face as I fell asleep watching something. Now I use it to play Switch in bed with a controller

Edit: Since so many people keep asking, this is what I use

That was a generic tablet holder. They don't need to make a branded one, because there is a thousand already on the market for $20.

Amazon has so many of them it's silly

Try one of these I have 2 of them in my house now! One I have on my headboard to watch Netflix with and the other I have on my desk to have Netflix while I’m using my computer. Because a $19 mount is cheaper then a second monitor.

Here you go, friend!

This is the one I have.

But I haven't seen using it for my switch cause of reports of warping and bending. Anybody else have this problem or can I use it for the reason I bought it for?

Check this one out. Works with Switch.
