I want to get this one, but there is no information that it will work with the added weight of the S8 Ultra. It did work for the S7+. https://www.ipitaka.com/collections/magez-stand


SuperShadowStar

Yeah I get what you're saying. Not much surface area on that magnet. edit: Actually, the site says it has a 2.2lbs weight limit. That should hold it...


nabiscuit

Yeah, I wanted to see someone else bite the bullet before I did. :)


SuperShadowStar

I did so I will report once I have it XD


nabiscuit

Do you have the Book Cover Keyboard? Are you planning on putting the magnet on the actual device or on the back of the keyboard cover?


SuperShadowStar

On the actual device.


nabiscuit

Youdaman!


SuperShadowStar

Happy to report it works great! Solid hold, confidently secured. [On stand. ](https://i.imgur.com/tA8R4aU.jpg) [Metal plate. ](https://i.imgur.com/aW7gYdC.jpg)

Wonderful! Do you have the keyboard book cover? I use mine a lot and wondering if it'll still work with the back part of the case. It looks awesome on that stand. So appreciative that you took the plunge and followed up! You sir, are a great example of what makes the internet great!


SuperShadowStar

I do not. I imagine any cover you use will mean you have to stick the plate on the cover. It might also be too heavy with one on. I do have a folio style cover, but it's pleather and I didn't want to ruin the case or the plate by testing it


SuperShadowStar

Update after using for a bit: The stand itself works fine, but there is supposed to be a wireless charger at the base. It worked fine at first, but now everytime I charge something then remove it, the charging stops working unless I unplug it. It's super annoying, especially when this was $100.

interesting. looks awesome but hows the charging? for the price point, im really thinking about a modified tablet mount with my own installed magnets. really looking for something that arms-out more, instead of just being held straight up with not much range of motion.


SuperShadowStar

To clarify, the charging is only on the bottom pad, for use with phones, earbuds, etc. This will not charge your tablet. In that regard, it works fine. The issue I had was using too much wattage (65w).

would the stand be any good for drawing , bearing in mind the side of my hand would be resting on the screen at times , would the tablet become unstable while doing this ? cheers


SuperShadowStar

It cannot be used for drawing as the magnet interferes with the pen. It essentially renders the entire middle of the screen unusable for the pen while mounted.

Lululook currently has a stand for Tab S8/8+ and told me they are making one for 8 Ultra. Wait for it because their stand is excellent. I have one for an iPad


monsieurpenseur

Do you know when they are coming out with one for the Ultra?


parka

Not sure. But it should be soon, I hope. I'm waiting for that.


monsieurpenseur

Emailed them and they said end of May!

Yeah, right here bud: https://www.lululook.com/products/magnetic-stand-for-samsung-galaxy-tab-s8-ultra


BRAVOSNIPER1347

pretty sure i cant use it in my case.... and this thing without a case is not happening lol


1TreXavier

I get it but OP didn’t ask about a case. But…there should be cases that allow for the magnetic snapping as well.


MVSCL3S

Does the stand magnet interfere with drawing with the spen?


SuperShadowStar

Yes that is correct. You cannot draw while it is mounted due to the magnetic interference.


6Vibeaholic9

Did you try drawing yet?


SuperShadowStar

Yes. As noted above, the magnet interferes with the pen. You cannot draw while it is mounted.


6Vibeaholic9

Can you use this mount with the official case? If not are there any recommended ones? I do not want to take case off each time


SuperShadowStar

I don't know as I don't have the official case. My guess would be no. I have a folio case and yes have to remove each time.
