Swayvoo Foldable Magnetic Phone Stand vs CX-5 Magnetic Rotatable Phone Holder

Both are foldable aluminum magnetic phone stands, but they are not equals. The CX-5 is the stronger pick: N52 magnets rated at 12N, a damped 180-degree pivot, full 360-degree rotation, and a second function as a selfie stick. The Swayvoo is a simpler desk and dashboard stand with a non-slip base and a 4.2 rating from 26 owners, but it lists no magnet strength, no rotation spec, and no selfie-stick mode. Buy the CX-5 for sturdier magnetic hold and more adjustability; buy the Swayvoo if you want a plain stand for a desk or nightstand and don't need the extra modes.

  • Choose the Swayvoo if you want a simple fold-flat stand for a desk, nightstand or countertop and don't need a selfie stick or 360-degree rotation.
  • Choose the CX-5 if you want the stronger magnetic grip, damped pivot, full rotation and a stand that doubles as a selfie stick.

What reviewers say

Swayvoo Foldable Magnetic Phone Stand

  • 4.2 / 526 ratings

Buyers rate it 4.2 out of 5 across 26 ratings, generally pleased with the sturdy build and the convenience of the magnetic hold. The main reservations concern how well it grips phones without magnetic support.

What people mention
  • BuildPraisedOwners describe the alloy frame as solid and more durable than plastic stands.
  • MagnetMixedThe magnetic hold is convenient with compatible phones but weaker with non-magnetic devices or thick cases.
  • PortabilityPraisedBuyers like that it folds flat for storage and travel.
  • StabilityMixedThe non-slip base keeps it steady on a desk, though heavier tablets can feel less secure.

Questions and answers

Which holds a phone more securely in a car?
The CX-5. Its N52 magnets are rated at 12N and it uses magnets on both sides, which is built for movement. The Swayvoo relies on an unspecified magnetic plate and a non-slip base.
Which is better for a desk or nightstand?
Either works. The Swayvoo is the simpler choice with its non-slip base and fold-flat design. The CX-5 adds rotation and angle control if you watch or video call a lot.
Does either work with a non-magnetic phone?
The CX-5 needs a magnetic case or a metal plate stuck to the phone or case. The Swayvoo's magnetic plate has the same requirement; a plain plastic or glass back won't stick on its own.
Which is more portable?
The CX-5, at 58 x 73 x 23 mm folded in an aluminum body. The Swayvoo also folds flat but publishes no folded dimensions.
Is the CX-5 worth stepping up to over the Swayvoo?
Yes if you want a selfie stick, 360-degree rotation and a stated magnet strength. If you only need a steady stand on a flat surface, the Swayvoo covers that.
Which lasts longer?
Hard to say from specs alone. The CX-5's all-aluminum body and damped pivot suggest better wear resistance, but it has no owner ratings yet. The Swayvoo has a 4.2 average from 26 ratings.
