Smartphone mount for car

dave · 05-21-2018, 08:47 AM

My wife uses Logitech magnetic mount - clips solidly to vent -- and she absolutely loves it, had it for probably three years now. I was a little taken aback by the price at the time - I think around $40 -- but it was well worth it.
I got the cheap crap from Amazon and my phone flies off all the time - usually onto the passenger floor -- and always at the most inopportune times

I've been using this for about 2 years with no issues....mounts to vent and easily movable/transportable...magnetic with an unobtrussive piece that fits between my slim leather case and the I-phone X....and it's 5 bucks via prime...

Looks like a heck of a deal. No issue with the clips on the vents? That's where mine have gone south....fall off the vent when I look at them wrong

I haven't had any issue at all...swivels fine too....nothing special about my vents that I know of....used with Iphone 7, now the X...both with an Apple leather case so not bulky or heavy....

...and vent I'm using is a horizontal vent if that makes a difference

Just Received This. Wasn't Sure It Would Work With My XL iPhone 7+ In A Big Leather Case, But It Holds It Very Securely! I'm Impressed!
