Bought this phone adapter for digiscoping with my Kowa 88 spotting scope. It is more expensive than most alternatives but is built like a tank out of aluminum and high-quality plastic. The fit and finish is first rate and it has the feel of something that will last for years. Several adapter rings are included in the box to fit most spotting scope eyepieces, one of which fit mine perfectly. The spring-loaded arms that grip the phone are strong and should fit most phones - even those in bulky Otterbox or Pelican cases. The arm ends even have little adjustment wheels to customize them to the thickness of the phone. There are multiple adjustment points to fiddle with to fit your smartphone and it just takes a little trial and error to fine tune the unit so that the phone camera lens is centered and aligned with the opening in the adapter. Once that is done, all of the adjustments can be "locked down" and you can pop the unit with the phone attached off and on your spotting scope with ease. The instructions that come in the box could be clearer, but the product itself is relatively simple to figure out and the company does offer phone and on-line support. Bottom line, this is a premium quality product at a premium price point but is also a good value when you consider that it will likely last many years longer than its lesser quality alternatives.
