"It's literally been glued to my Ally X since I got it. They are one piece. Worth every penny."

"Honestly I was a little skeptical at first. But I gotta say, I'm a believer now. Holds phone in both orientations and holds it well. It doesn't slip or turn unless I want it to. I ended up getting other mounts too. Great Stuff!"

Evolves with you and your devices.

We are not just a brand. Our ecosystem is built out of spite for bad design to expand with you as your collection grows.

Open Source Spirit

We don’t hoard innovation, we share it. Our designs started on Reddit and we always give away 3D files for free. If you’re a maker, you’re in the right place.

Small team, big ideas

No boardrooms. No VC money. We're just a few people solving real gaming problems like it's our job. Oh wait, it is.

Less friction. More function.

Every product exists because something out there sucked. Our reviews don’t lie. People use words like “finally,” “perfect,” and “why didn’t this exist before?”

Mechanism
Built by frustration. Improved by obsession.

The only mounting system made just for gamers.

We’re building an ecosystem that makes your setup cleaner, your sessions longer, and your life easier. Every product fits together. Every new release upgrades the last, fixing all the pain in so called "Portable Gaming".

Over 35,000 orders later, we’re still weird, still scrappy, and still giving away free 3D files so you can build, remix, or hack it yourself.

Welcome to the only gaming brand where frustration leads to innovation - and your arms don’t fall asleep mid-boss fight.

Any questions?

Great warranty replacement experience

I had this part replaced under warranty for my gaming pillow and the experience getting that completed was really smooth. Not sure why the locking piece failed but I am glad Mechanism stands by their products.

Thanks

Thanks for your help in getting me the replacement part!

It's does the thing.

Fit, finish, and function is all there, but I worry about longevity of the locking clasp. It would be a good idea to add in a rubber pad to the inside of the socket so you don't have to tighten so aggressively on the screw cap, and that would keep the threading from premature wear.

Amazing

Amazing. Works perfect on a floor standing iPad stand. I now mount my switch2 and an I have an amazing dual screen setup in the living room.

Fits perfectly on a desk mount solution I purchased previously. Works great and keeps my Steam Deck comfortably suspended above my head on the couch and in bed.
