There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I put an Apple Air 3 on the front - had to slide it in place since otherwise it would not fit - but it slides in from the side just fine.
the phone camera holder on the back is almost tacky but not quite and will work for most smaller phones well. I tossed it and put on one that screws down on the phone and it is much easier in all respects as well as it handles my iPhone 12 Pro Max without having to pull like hell to get it to fit.
The material cover is well made but it is constructed of heavy fairly stiff material - it would be preferable to have a material that drapes better and encloses more easily and better.
I was able to set it up and have it working in minutes - and I will definitely keep it - this is a keeper.
the upgrade to a better phone holder cost $8 bucks
the cover material seemed to work OK for the testing I did in a fully light room - but I put a thick large microfiber cloth over it to completely darken it. The stiff material it comes with IS really quite stiff.
it comes with a nice case and folds very flat - about 1/2 the thickness of the case.
I put two apps on my iPad immediately - one because it scrolls according to your voice automatically - it understands what you have read and moves the script when you need it moved and stops if you decide to pause or take a breath.

Pretty much zero learning curve
I also added
Teleprompter Premium
It allows for some tweaks for professionals that I might want - have not used it yet - seems like a learning curve.
The Phone Holder I added is the:
Vastar Universal Smartphone Tripod Adapter Cell Phone Holder Mount Adapter, Fits iPhone, Samsung, and all Phones, Rotates Vertical and Horizontal, Adjustable Clamp
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01L3B5PBI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I only used one part of it - I have purchase 2 of these - they work well and hold bigger thicker phones with protective covers and wallets and batteries well - and they are well built - no more pulling on a spring like hell and then shoving it in place.
THE main reason I actually bought this for is being able to look directly into the camera while speaking with zoom people - it works perfectly for this but as the person running the zoom meetings I do need to look at the computer screen occasionally if some activity seems to be happening.
I use Duet for this - it allows my Mac to Mirror on my iPad which I put under the reflected screen. This way all the participants show up where the camera is behind the screen - now I am able to look at, and speak too, each person looking directly at them - (at least so close to directly that it appears direct)
I am happy with this purchase
The good:
1. The track behind the glass is T-shaped, which is perfect for recording on a cell phone because cell phone cameras are located in a corner of the device. So the T-shaped track lets you mount the phone to one side or the other, such that you can put the camera in the middle of the glass.
2. The build quality is solid. Miles better than the Parrot teleprompter that I bought on Kickstarter. For $100 this teleprompter is a much better value. (The Parrot is also $100)
3. You can actually use this teleprompter with a regular camera for filming as well as a cellphone. What might might not be ideal is the length of the T-shaped track behind the glass. If you use a really long lens then it might not fit on the track.
4. The included black fabric is nice and stiff, so it doesn't drape down and get in the shot.
5. I like the carrying case. It's not a super high quality case that will withstand tons of road use, but it's good enough for light travel or for storing the teleprompter.
6. I like that this is foldable. I don't have a lot of space in my house, so I appreciate that I can pack this away when I'm not using it.
The not-so-good:
1. The included cell phone holder is very stiff, and it's difficult for me to get my phone in and out of it. I use a cell phone tripod mount made by a different company and it works much better.
2. The glass is just a hair smaller than I'd like it to be. I film with my cell phone camera in selfie mode so that I can make sure that I'm in frame. I use a Google Pixel (NOT the XL version) and when my camera is centered in the glass (which it must be, or else the corners of the teleprompter are in the shot), my cell phone juts out the side of the teleprompter. I also can't see about a half inch of my screen, so it is hard to tell if I'm centered in frame or not.
Overall, I'd recommend this teleprompter to any Youtuber looking to improve the quality of their videos. It's not perfect--if I wanted something better than I might try the TMP 100--but since this one is half the price of the TMP 100, I'll live with the minor drawbacks.
Top reviews from other countries
- The screws to lock the frame at the correct angle are fiddly and it's easy to accidentally get the hinge screws instead if you haven't used it for a while and forget which one is which.
- It's hard to get a phone close enough to the frame, with today's big wide-angle phone cameras that does mean you're forced to use zoom to avoid getting the corners of the frame in view. No issues with a DSLR, the T-track works great for those.
- The light exclusion hood is quite stiff and not quite big enough for a DSLR, meaning you often get a gap through which light escapes, making it hard to read the reflection on screen. I think this has gone through a few revisions as other people mention zips, whereas mine has toggle cords for securing it.
That said it's one of the cheaper options out there, the glass is good quality with no in-camera reflections and it's solid once assembled with a standard tripod mount. It also comes with a good carry case that has just enough spare space to store a couple of extra cleaning cloths and stow the prompter with a quick release mount attached, making assembling the frame and sorting out the hood the only awkward bits of using it.
The build is excellent, solid but light and portable, and it folds down easily. The screen is a good size. It works extremely well with my iPhone. It also fits my iPad, but I do have to adjust the margins in my teleprompter app so text is not cut off.
I usually film with a camcorder. I do have some issues fitting the hood around the view screen, and the camera lines up slightly off centre to the screen. Nothing insurmountable though.
All in all, an excellent teleprompter for its price. A very good value.
