Various Configurations with Android and iPhone
Do you need a place to keep your cell phone on your desktop? The answer is a desktop phone stand and in this article I will detail the one that I use in my work and home office.
A desktop phone stand is an office or cubicle accessory that will add a little bit of class and practicality to your office desktop. I found this Lisen desktop phone stand online and it is well made, easy to put together, and is fairly reasonable in cost.
Desktop phone stands are plentiful in the marketplace and my Lisen mobile phone stand is one of the most popular today.
Desktop Phone Stand – Value, Style, and Practicality
Work desk decor and practicality matters to me and this desktop phone stand certainly reinforces that fact. It not only looks great but it’s adjustable, easy to put together, and is a great value cost-wise.
Nearly everyone today owns a cell phone. I do actually know a couple of people who don’t but they tend to be older and set in their ways. BTW, they also don’t own computers.
From what I can tell, even young children own cell phones so that they can, at a minimum, keep in contact with their parents.

Frequently Asked Questions about Desktop Phone Stands
What are phone stands good for?
It may sound obvious but a desktop phone stand is great for holding any device that you have such as an Android or iPhone cell phone or a tablet. It allows you to always view your device in clear view without you having to pick it up to see who called or texted you. It essentially is your 3rd hand that holds your device.
Are phone holders safe?
It depends on the one that you have purchased or are deciding to purchase. One of the most important aspects of a desktop phone stand is that the base is weighted to prevent any tipping. You don’t want your device to not only drop onto your desktop but possibly fall off onto the ground causing damage to your device.
What can I use instead of a phone stand?
All you basically need is a solid object on your desktop upon which you can rest your phone or device. For example if you have a monitor stand with storage like the Perch monitor stand you can simply open up one of the small drawers and stand up your device in the drawer.
Another option is to build your own by bending a metal coat hanger into a shape that will not only hold your phone but will rest on your desktop. Another option, shown below, is to use an old eyeglass case opened up on your desktop. Here I show a Samsung cell phone in both vertically and horizontally.
If you think you can use this Lisen Desktop Phone Stand in your office or anywhere in your house, I don’t think you can go wrong with the price and the solid construction. The weighted base keeps your phone, tablet, or Kindle solidly in place as you can use your device hands-free!
