Holders and stands for phones and tablets: desk stands, lockable holders and other accessories that keep a device upright or fixed in a convenient place. Our range includes over 50 products, with COMPULOCKS, FIXED, BELKIN and Urban Armor Gear among the main brands.
How to choose a holder or stand
Device size and weight. Check first that the holder or stand is made for your device size: a phone holder is usually too small for a tablet, and a larger tablet needs a wider, sturdier support. A holder made for a specific model grips the device more firmly than a universal one, but it is harder to reuse when you change device. If you use a thick case, allow for that too.
Where you will use it. A desk needs a stable base and a comfortable viewing angle, a car needs a holder that copes with vibration, and a shop counter or reception desk is better served by a fixed stand. Think about how often you will take the device out: a quick-release holder is convenient every day, while a fixed one suits places where the device always stays put.
Theft protection. In a shop, at an exhibition or on a reception desk, a lockable stand or enclosure opened with a key or code is worth considering. COMPULOCKS, the largest brand group in our range, is known for exactly these solutions. At home or in a small office a lock is usually unnecessary.
Angle and rotation. A tilting stand lets you set the angle for reading, video calls or typing on the screen. If you will switch between portrait and landscape, choose a model that lets you rotate the device without removing it.
Charging and access to ports. Make sure the holder does not cover the charging port, buttons or camera. If you want to charge while the device is standing, look for a model with a cable opening or built-in wireless charging, provided your device supports it.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose a tablet stand?
Choose by tablet size, where you will use it and whether you need to change the angle. A stable, adjustable stand is enough for a desk, while a public space calls for a lockable one. Check that the stand fits your tablet with its case on.
Can a phone holder be used for a tablet?
Usually not. Phone holders are built for a smaller, lighter device, so a tablet's width and weight can exceed their limits. For a tablet, choose a stand or holder where the manufacturer states the matching screen size.
What is a lockable tablet stand for?
It protects the device from theft and unwanted removal in public places. It is most often used in shops, reception areas, exhibitions and classrooms. The tablet is secured in the stand or enclosure and released with a key or code.
Can I charge a device while it is in a holder?
Yes, as long as the holder does not block the charging port or has an opening for the cable. Some stands have built-in wireless charging, but that only works with devices that support it. Before buying, check where the port is on your device.
