Vufine Pro Mount

nice

Works exactly as expected

This is just a worthless piece of plastic not even worth a $1 DON'T BUY. It doesn't even secure the product, it's worst than the original frame...

$30 for a chunk of plastic and this is the best packaging you could come up with? you could've at least used a ziploc. this is miles better than the eyeglass mount but I'm astonished it arrived in one piece with this packaging

Very handy piece of plastic. Holds on to the Vufine much better than the brackets that comes packaged. Seems a little pricey for what you get, but I guess it is a specialized market.

On the one hand, I prefer it having a solid clip to attach to instead of magnetically attached. That design seems improved. That's the only positive at all, and might be worth salvaging for parts in a DIY project, but my god this is NOT worth $30 at all. I'd be upset if I paid more than $10 for this - it's functionally useless. Even though it has a double-cable feed for the original micro-hdmi and micro-usb cables, it's literally not possible to go more than about 10 seconds before it starts pulling downward no matter what you do. Outside of a custom 3d print for your head there's nothin you could possibly attach to that would be anywhere as stable as glasses. It's unfortunate because the display is relative cheap and has a lot of potential for wearable devices, but the actual design is a total failure. Don't waste your money unless you really want the attachment piece. Even though it has a few degrees of rotation to pivot with, it's basically impossible to line up properly with your eye for more than a few seconds.

This will be lengthy, I have opinions on each part of this. Firstly for a tldr: don’t buy this as is. What does it do correctly? The concept is great, and the details are there. The unit clamp (where the vufine goes) is excellent, I would not change that. That’s about it though. My complaints and where I hope this product gets improvement for the future: The plastic used in the entire construction is the wrong material for several parts. Particularly the hat/band clamp, and the arm. The clamp does not have enough clamping force to hold the unit in place when clipped underneath a strap or cap, which is due to the flimsy and super thin plastic that makes up the part. It can’t hold the weight it needs, and just pivots the display towards your chin. This was the most disappointing part to me. For the arm, it’s missing a degree of freedom. The arm should be able to slide back and forth at the base to allow the unit to be extended further out or nearer to the users eye. It would make positioning far easier than it is currently. The joints are alright, but I feel like they should be able to move just a bit further. I attempted to mitigate my hat problem by attaching the pro mount to the brim of my cap, but the joints just couldn’t pivot far enough. Likewise with the clamp, these should also be made much tighter. Who cares if it moves smoothly if your unit won’t stay in place? Now, as mentioned, I like the unit clamp and the wire holding detail on the band clamp. The head band that comes with this isn’t of bad quality either, so I’m not going to return the item (lest an offer is made with an improved version which (no offense) I don’t expect).

It does what its supposed to do. Its not very comfortable but it is functional.
