      I like to use the Standard or Cinematic stabilization and I favor the 24mm camera as it is by far the best.
      These settings produce nice enough videos for me without absurdly large file sizes and doesn’t require an external ssd/card.

    But you didnt adress the most important thing about using the iphone as a filmmaking tool, and that is a solution for using ND filters for that cinematic motion blur. also looks like the 67mm filter clamp from for example Moment will get in conflict with this mount clamp.
    What I really would like to see thats a clamp or cage with ability to neatly fit USB HUB w/hdmi and 2x usb-c, Filter mount with standard threads like 67mm, and ability to mount handles or other accesories. The closest thing I have so far is Neewer cage, which can be rigged a lot, but still have to make a lot of custom stuff for the usb-c hub and ssd.

    That looks like a beautiful and well-built design, and you are obviously passionate about it and I applaud the work that's gone into this. But as I look at it I def find myself wondering why, esp. as I have a box full of inexpensive under-$20 all-metal phone clamps from a variety of manufacturers that accomplish these goals: No flex with a rock solid lock-up, 1/4 mounts and/or cold-shoe all over, vertical orientation if desired (most can do horizontal too), clearance for the camera lenses (every once in a while have to scootch it over a bit), fits in a pocket kinda-sorta, can go over cases and diff size phones (or even ipads with some of them)... I use them for multi-phone/cam scenes on all manner of creative stands/clamps/poles/locations. So yeah, not meaning to rain on the parade (that does look really nice!), but it is kinda "another phone clamp." For the gear aficionados this'll be popular maybe? And of course you have the USB thing which is basically a right-angle adapter? Why not have a cord port/channel and mount the phone upside/down or just shoot horizontal and avoid the plug issue altogether? Also, don't most semi-serious filmmakers want to shoot horizontal anyway? The build quality does look impressive, so if that hand-feel is important there is that.

I would also add all integrated into the clamp an SD card reader or CF express instead of having to add another attachment to it. Think of it has you add the clamp and it's like adding all your I/O ports and media card with a door to protect them from being pulled out by accident. that would be really cool to have.

    Spring loaded is a clearly better design engineering-wise than all of the screw/knob solutions out there that all of the cheap selfie camera junk relies on to hold the phone in place. The cost of this thing is the only major drawback: $75 for something that will probably be outdated with the next generation of phone design as manufacturers are very determined to cram as many cameras as possible into a phone and relocate and resize them every revision. And it's not clear whether or not this device will work with any phone or just the current generation of iPhone.

    I waited it out for a while, because I figured Tilta/Kondor/SmallRig would come up with this solution, but it’s now looking unlikely, so we’ve started working on it. The battery in mind is the smaller Sony NPF types, as those seem ubiquitous.
