Well it isn't the greatest and I'm sure partly due to phone model etc. I had a hard time getting the magnets to perform their function but overall I have to say yeah I've wasted $3 on much worse things!

I got one and gave it to my son.

He said that there were no instructions and that he could not figure out how to put it together.

Does anybody have any instructions that you could post?

Thanks!
