Ulanzi MA35 MagSafe Holder for Vertical/Horizontal Shooting on a Phone with Bluetooth (M032GBB3)
Review
Ulanzi MA35 MagSafe (M032GBB3) — a universal smartphone holder with a magnetic mount and a built-in Bluetooth remote, designed to quickly change the frame orientation between vertical and horizontal. It is aimed at mobile video makers, streamers, short-form authors, as well as anyone who regularly shoots with a phone and seeks stability, convenience and neat mechanics without unnecessary adapters. The magnetic mount ensures instant fit of compatible smartphones, and the rotating module allows you to switch from Stories/Shorts mode to the “classic” horizontal format for YouTube or presentations with one movement.
Ease of use
The MA35 is designed with the “put it on and take it off” principle in mind. The magnetic mount eliminates the need for screws and clips, so the phone is instantly in place and just as easy to remove. The swivel assembly with a clear fixation allows you to flip the frame with one gesture without changing the tripod position or the height of the stand. This is especially valuable in dynamic scenarios: during interviews, walkthroughs, streams or working at events, when the content format is constantly changing.
The built-in Bluetooth remote control makes taking selfies easier: you can start taking photos or videos from a distance without touching your smartphone or shaking the frame. The remote control is fixed in the holder body, so it won't get lost in your bag, and can be quickly detached if needed.
Functionality
-
Instant smartphone attachment thanks to a powerful magnetic hub with centering.
-
Quick format change : vertical for social networks ↔ horizontal for long videos and presentations.
-
Smooth tilt for precise angle adjustment (top-down, interview, talking head, flatlay).
-
Remote shutter release via Bluetooth remote control - convenient for timelapses, group photos, selfies, and macro.
-
Universal mount on tripods/racks with 1/4" thread; easy to add a ball head or mast arm.
-
Accessory integration : possibility to install a lightweight microphone or mini light (depending on configuration and permissible load).
-
Quick relocation between supports - from a tabletop tripod to a full-size stand without reassembly.
Compatibility and scenarios
-
Smartphones with MagSafe or magnetic ring cases: fit without additional clips.
-
Other smartphones : work with magnetic sticker rings is possible; it is recommended to align the center of mass for better grip.
-
Usage scenarios : vertical Stories/Reels/Shorts, horizontal interviews and reviews, streams, video tutorials, timelapses, tabletop filming (cooking, DIY), travel vlogs, conferences, events.
Tip: For maximum grip, use a thin magnetic case or a “bare” case—thick damping cases reduce the effectiveness of the magnet.
Design and ergonomics
The MA35 body is assembled tightly, without backlash; the movement of the swivel assembly is uniform and predictable. The magnetic platform has soft pads that protect the glass/metal of the smartphone case and reduce microvibrations when touching the screen. The placement of the controls is intuitive: the remote control is under the thumb, the latches have a pronounced tactile "latch" for easy operation with gloves.
If the design includes a cold shoe, it is positioned so that the microphone or light does not block the camera or interfere with the grip. The low profile of the assembly and the close center of gravity reduce the "leverage effect", so the frame is less "biting" when the hand moves.

User reviews
Users note that the MA35 noticeably speeds up the transition between content formats: a vertical video for social networks - and in an instant a horizontal plan for a long video is ready. They praise the reliability of the magnetic grip and the convenience of the remote control when shooting yourself. Among the practical tips - use thinner covers so as not to lose the "power of the magnet", and make a small "indication" in the direction of the expected load before finally fixing the angle.
