SKU: SKU.2288
While i wouldn't want to be running around with attached to me due to the risk of getting bash with it, for the right use case it's excellent. It's well made, is easy to operate and it's a simple but clever design which is quick to attach / detach.
I found the front facing video to be great with or without the extension arm and for rear facing the extension arm was needed for the angles / height.
A well made alternative to typical chest rigs.

I was already equipped with a neck support of this type, to make videos while keeping both hands free, it's excellent. But as with age, I have become presbyopic, it is not easy to keep an eye on the subject being filmed and on the screen of your camera. But this model has a plus which is its articulated arm, therefore composed of two parts. My smartphone no longer falls right under my nose and I gain a few centimeters, which is always good to take, the screen has become more readable.
Another advantage of this model, it is not reserved for the Gopro system, it is compatible with my heavy smartphone (Fold Z) equipped with a Magsafe case, and to make videos, this fixing system has the advantage of leaving the lens, and even the screen well clear. To be able to use it, all you have to do is equip your smartphone with a case with a ring or simply stick the iron ring provided on it, the magnet integrated into the support being very powerful. The arm can also be rotated 360°. It also comes with a classic smartphone cradle. A very versatile system.
Another small additional option compared to my old system, this one comes with a strap to attach around the chest.
There you go, perfect, because this model really improves my old system, it replaces it very advantageously.

This holder sits comfortably on the neck and does not cause any discomfort. The collar is made of rubber with a soft-touch finish. The button on the clasp is activated quite smoothly, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage, as it could be accidentally pressed and the holder could come off.
I liked that the set includes an additional chest strap, which allows you to fix the holder more stably and prevent it from swinging, for example, when playing sports.
The magnetic holder is very strong, and sometimes I found it difficult to remove my smartphone, which was in a case. In addition, the set includes a safety cable that allows you to additionally secure your smartphone. However, I am not sure that it is convenient to use, as in that case it takes more time to remove the phone.
I liked that the smartphone clip has a cold shoe mount, which allows you to attach an additional light or external microphone to it.
By pressing the side buttons on the main holder, you can rotate the holder, which allows you to adjust the recording angle more flexibly. Also, the magnetic holder has a ball joint, and by loosening the adjustment nut a little, you can rotate it in all directions, which is very practical.
Despite all this, I didn't really like that all the parts of the holder are made of plastic. I have tightened the screws quite hard and had no problems, but I have the feeling that this plastic is not very durable. However, this is just my assumption, and I may be wrong.
Overall, I like this holder and I can recommend it.
I hope my review was useful to you and helps you make the right decision.
Thank you for your attention!

If you're looking to shoot a POV perspective with your phone, then this is the solution to your problems. I've Had a chance to test this out and i'm very impressed with what I've been able to capture.
If someone asked me to describe this product, I'd say that it's basically a bike lock around your neck. Although that's how it feels to wear the mount, that doesn't detract from the quality it can bring to your videos! This mount is super secure, locking into place and also offers a strap that goes around your back and locks into the mount.
There are a few different add-ons that you can install on the mount dependant on teh shot you're after or the device you're using. I have both an insta360 x3 and a smart phone that I was able to test with this device. Both times, each device felt super secure and was also easy to operate once fitted to the mount.
Taking the mount off is also incredibly easy, simply press the release button and the mount unclasps. You're also able to rotate the mount to refine your shot!
Definitely worth an investment if you're after this type of POV shot in your content. 100% recommended to any content creators out there!

K&F Concept Neck Mount is just what I wanted for my vlogs as I do unboxing videos for my channel. It is an innovative idea and I must say whoever designed it is a genius.
You can wear this around your neck and forget about it. You will have both hands free to do videos. This would be a great choice for cooking videos as know how hard it is to keep camera on the subject as well as having to deal with cooking etc. I have used other stands for my phone and video camera but they always get in the way and moving them around to focus on the product you are unboxing is a hard job but this little mount solved my problem.
I am not into fast action videos but it is desirable to have this mount for your GoPro camera around your neck to have both your hands free to capture what you are doing.
Like I said it is a versatile tool to mount Action Cameras such as GoPro or your mobile smartphone. There are plenty of options to mount different accessories including a coldshoe for LED light.
I absolutely love this hands free camera mount and highly recommend it.

The K&F Concept Magnetic Neck Mount was interesting to support a couple of use cases, the advertised POV hands free recording and to support my phone when travelling.
I record a fair bit of video to help with training and the neck mount has replaced a head strap as my favorite camera mounting option. I’ve always found the head strap annoying and while the camera is more “in the way” with the neck strap, I find it much more comfortable to use, especially for longer sessions. I’ll also be using it to hold my phone while I watch movies during longer flights, it can be adjusted to hold the phone exactly where I need it.
The quality of the mount is very good, attaching the loop that goes around your neck can be fiddly but once you get the hang it’s easy to do without looking.
You get plenty of options for device mounting, including action camera “fingers” but the magnetic head is perfect for my iPhone and it holds on very well. If you have a use case for the K&F Concept Magnetic Neck Mount, it’s worth it.

This is good quality and solid looking as well. Straight forward to set up and versatile also. Good design and colour. This is handy indoor and outdoor. A bit heavy for me, wish it is a bit lighter. Price is okay not too expensive for me.

I love that this neck mount has an adjustable strap that loops around the back; this made fit feel secure and comfortable around a jacket. I am impressed how flexible the silicone neckband is and it was easy to get the positioning I wanted.
It's nice that there are extra adhesive magnetic rings in case I want to install a device that does not have a magsafe backing; I believe the installation for phones and camera is straightforward as depicted by the operating instructions. I appreciate that the phone holder has a cold shoe mount on top where I can add on additional accessories like an external microphone or LED lightbox.
I did not see any orange 'cell phone drop cord' inside the box as shown on the product page.
My only concern:
- The plastic extension arm and buckle anchor feel a bit delicate; there is a tolerance of how much they can be tightened down and they make a plastic creaking sound when tightened too much.
- Since these are proprietary pieces, I recommend being careful with how much force is applied when trying to secure the positioning of these plastic pieces.
-I do wish that the these pieces were made of more robust plastic or metal; this way I wouldn't have to worry too much about over tightening them.
Construction wise, I believe the plastic rigidity is okay if I am very careful with handling; I did not see any physical damage nor imperfections with the finishes. None of the plastics had any profound odours nor weird factory scent.
Due to the delicate nature of the mounting solution, I believe this neck mount is fine for low-intensity activities; For any other activities where there is a possibility I might crash or fall, I probably will need to use a more robust mounting solution.

Many elements make up this set to fix around you an action camera, for example. A multilingual leaflet with French explains its use.

The neck strap feels good and I like that it is just pretty much a noodle shape as opposed to some other products that have "reinforced" chunks sticking out that dig into the skin. However, the little box that holds it all together feels cheap and rigid, as do some of the accessories. It's a bit of a mixed bag, but all in all, a functional product, especially with the addition of the optional chest strap lanyard for added stability. I also like the fact you can rotate the mounting point by holding the side button.
In my opinion, these neck mounts are never comfortable, and this one is not an exception, but it is the least uncomfortable of the three different ones I own.
