Nothing Phone 3 Has a BIG Problem… Here’s the Fix (Ulanzi MA38)
Nothing Phone 3 fans: the phone is slick, the camera is fun, but there’s one big pain for creators — no built-in magnetic ring on the back. That means your favorite MagSafe-style mounts, grips, car mounts, and quick-swap tripods don’t “snap” on like they do with iPhones. In this 5-minute video I show the simple, affordable fix: pair a MagSafe-compatible case with the Ulanzi MA38 MagLock mini tripod/stand to get fast, solid, creator-grade mounting for shooting video, Reels, and photos.
What I’m using
Phone: Nothing Phone 3
Case: MagSafe-compatible ring case (adds the magnet array so accessories snap into place)
Tripod/Grip: Ulanzi MA38 MagLock Phone Stand (T163) — a pocket-size mini tripod/handgrip that snaps to MagSafe/Qi2-style rings and flips between modes fast.
Why this matters for Nothing Phone 3
No native magnetic ring = slower mounting, wobbly clamps, and fewer accessory options.
Adding a MagSafe-style ring via a case unlocks snap-on tripods, grips, lights, and gimbals—perfect for mobile filmmaking and mobile photography.
What the Ulanzi MA38 does well
Five quick modes: tripod, handheld grip, stand, mantis/hook, snap-mount for metal surfaces.
Strong dual-magnet connection for confident holds with a MagSafe-style case.
Ultra-portable: folds small, toss in pocket; 180° tilt for framing.
Great for vlogging, B-roll, time-lapses, product shots, behind-the-scenes, and desk POVs.
If this helped you mount your Nothing Phone 3 like a pro, drop a comment with your case pick and your favorite mobile rig. I’ll pin the best ones.
