Motrr's Galileo motorized iPhone dock for panoramic photo taking

Motrr has aimed their Galileo dock squarely at iPhone photography buffs looking to shoot consistent, high quality panoramic and spherical photos.


Motrr’s Galileo is available with two connectivity options: a Bluetooth model supports Apple’s iPhone 4S and above, while a 30-pin dock connector-equipped variant works with all other iPhones save the first generation. Both versions can be had in either black or white; we were supplied with a white Bluetooth model that retails for $149.95.


Out of the box, the Galileo feels solid and well-constructed, crafted from a high-grade plastic with a texture reminiscent of that found on the top of Apple’s Airport Express and Apple TV devices. A compact three-inch-by-two-inch cylinder, the Galileo takes up just slightly more in-bag space than a baseball.


The dock is hefty, but not heavy, in the same way as Apple’s iPhone 4 series. We carried the Galileo with us everywhere we went for a week — aside from day-to-day errands, it made trips in a backpack while hiking Hong Kong’s Victoria Peak and in a messenger bag while roaming Macau’s hilly streets — and we barely noticed the added weight.
