Universal! Cheap.
I picked up this clip-on filter mostly out of curiosity, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how useful it’s actually been. I do a lot of casual mobile photography when I’m out hiking or near water, and the reflections from puddles, windows, or just the sun hitting random surfaces were always annoying. This little filter actually does a decent job reducing that glare, and it gives skies that nice deep-blue look when you get the angle right. You kind of have to play with the rotation a bit to find the sweet spot, but once you get it, the difference is obvious.The clip itself is decent—nothing fancy, but it feels solid enough. It doesn’t feel like it’s going to break, though I wouldn’t be too rough with it either. I doubt it will survive to many falls. I’ve used it on an iPhone 16 Pro and even my mums android, and the fit was fine on both. It is very universal. I like that it’s just a screw-on filter, so if you’ve got other same sized filters, you can just swap them in using the same clip. Really handy if you’re into experimenting with different looks. Once you got the clip you can just buy generic 67mm filters. Love that.One thing I’ll mention though: positioning it just right takes a little finesse. Especially if you’re shooting with a wide-angle lens, the edge of the clip can sneak into the frame and cause some vignetting. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s definitely worth double checking before you shoot something. Sometimes I had to readjust a couple of times mid-session to get it centred properly depending on which lens I was using. Not a huge issue, but something to be aware of if you’re bouncing between camera modes.Using it outdoors is where it really shines—lakes, rivers, windows, wet pavement, shiny leaves—all those things look way better through the filter. You do lose a little bit of light but for bright daylight shots it’s honestly not a big deal. If you’re using an iPhone, these things are exceptional at automatically adjusting the exposure. You can always use a third party app for manual adjustments too. I did notice some colour improvement too; greens and blues especially pop a lot more.As for the kit, the little padded case is a nice touch. It’s nothing fancy but keeps everything in one place. If I had to nitpick, it’s not really pocket-friendly once it’s clipped on the phone. It sticks out a bit, so I’ve ended up carrying my phone in-hand whenever I’m using it. Also, if you’re doing any kind of filming—like using apps like Blackmagic Camera—you’ll need to make sure the clip’s not blocking the screen or nudging your framing mid-recording. It’s better suited for photography where you can take your time with each shot.Overall, for the price, I’m pretty happy with it. Definitely not some high-end, cinematic-grade filter, but for messing around on your phone and getting cleaner, more polished photos on the go, it totally does the job. Just takes a little patience with placement and adjusting, but once you get into the rhythm, it becomes second nature. Solid addition to the mobile photo kit.
I hope this review helps someone out.
