Aulumu G05 Pro Packs 5 Tools Into $35.98 Magnetic Stand

1 articles · Updated · Notebookcheck.net · Jun 22

Summary

  • $35.98 buys a slim 38 g magnetic phone stand that doubles as five EDC tools—a knife, saw, file, flathead screwdriver and SIM ejector—plus a protractor with 15-degree click-stops.
  • Testing found the G05 Pro strongest as a stand: its flip-out leg stayed stable in portrait and landscape, attached securely via MagSafe or the included adhesive ring, and showed no wobble on flat surfaces.
  • Its trade-offs center on comfort and charging. The flat leg is less secure to grip than a PopSocket-style accessory, portrait mode can be tipped more easily, and the metal body blocks wireless charging.
  • The built-in tools worked but remained limited by their short size: the knife handled tape and cardboard well, while the saw and screwdriver were slower or unable to reach some tasks.
  • Overall, the review judged the aluminum G05 Pro a useful everyday-carry accessory and a solid phone stand, but not a replacement for a full multitool.
