Tablet stand recommendations please

[StingRayBoy42]

I've joined the 21st Century and got a tablet (Samsung Galaxy A9+) for my dots.

Can you folks reccomend a decent, sturdy, fold-up-able free standing tablet stand?

Ta!

EDIT: I'm after a free standing one, not a mic stand clip-on.

...no disrespect intended — I have been known to use a music stand & bits of paper

Assuming clip/fix onto mic stand, I've used both Hercules and K&M.  The Hercules lasted longest in respect of my affections.  I initially tried to save a quid or two and bought cheaper but regreted it.

I'm after a free standing one for reading gigs.

IIRC the Hercules comes with an adaptor to screw to the top of a mic stand.

Got this recently - absolutely spot on. Great quality as usual.

I got a cheapie off Ebay, similar to https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284697979139 (same tablet as you). A couple of others at an open mic I go to have the same one. Works well, though I've found that to keep the tablet pointing up at the sort of angle you'd have a music stand at, you need to grip the tablet across the bottom. Maybe I should try using the holder lengthwise instead of widthwise <makes note to do that when I've got the tablet holder out of the car>.

I have the Hercules, it’s great, rock solid and clamps onto the iPad really securely.

I use a K&M tablet holder which screws to the top of a mic stand when all I need is the tablet. 

 

When I'm doing rehearsals or gigs that need a larger stand, I use a RAT Stand Jazz stand. 

 

I can see that they've just started offering a tablet stand too:

Can't really speak more highly of the Jazz stand, so I would have thought the tablet stand would be at least as good.
