Car Air Vent Magnetic Phone Holder

This little unit is pretty amazing. I have a 2012 Nissan Altima with a Kenwood DNX571HD. This little mount goes perfectly right above my radio. The mount pulls the phone very close to the vent it almost looks like My LG G3 was built in. The mount itself has a very good magnetic pull and the little metal plates are so thin it fit right behind my battery cover with no extra buldge! It also features two sizes I actually mounted it on the little vent lever so I can move it side to side and up and down with the vent. I have hit speed bumps and pot holes and the phone does not move. Partner this Mount with Car Dashdroid App and you have a perfect match! I received this product in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
Simply take it out of the clear plastic mold and you're ready to go. Now take out your smartphone and follow the easy instructions for installing the metal plate on the phone or in your case. Hover the phone close to the mount and VOILA! Snaps right on thanks to the synchronous quad magnetic array in the mount!
  • 2-IN-1 DESK STAND & AIR VENT MOUNT ✔ For people on the move! Use in your vehicle vent then take then it home or to the office and insert any credit card to convert it to a desk stand. For use in a car, office, kitchen counter, restaurant or coffee shop and bring a complete entertainment center with you right in your pocket.
  • 360° ROTATION ✔ Allowing an easy, effortless switch from taking calls to following GPS navigation. There's no ball joint to turn, only beautiful magnetic force that firmly holds your phone. Use this mount just once in your car-vent and you'll be wondering why you waited so long to switch!
  • PROTECTS YOUR PHONE ✔ Rubberized head works perfectly with the quad magnet array so that your phone is protected from scratches and so that it won't slide off! The four strong magnets provide the piece of mind that your phone will be held gently but firmly exactly where you need it to stay.

This accessory securely holds my IPhone 6 to the car's air vents. It was easy to add to my phone, I simply slid the magnetic pads in between the phone and case. There were three different magnetic pads, so it was easy to keep the pads away from the camera, etc. The magnetic pads are thin and do not make the phone much heavier. The clip is sturdy and securely attaches to the car's air vents. The angle is perfect to see phone while driving. This is perfect for those hands free states, so that I can see directions and follow the law to be hands free (I'm in CA a lot). The phone remained securely attached for all bumps and turns while driving. The only negative is that this accessory diverts air coming from the vents. I live in the Phoenix area and I can see this being removed in the summer when air is a must! Overall a great addition to my phone and car!
Works very well. The magnet is so strong, you really need to put it inside a case. If you attach the metal to the phone and magnet to the metal, it will be difficult, not impossible, but difficult to separate them. I removed the case of my iPhone a taped the metal plate inside it. The tape is only there to keep the plate from sliding around. You don't have to use the tape. You could use the adhesive backed disk (provided) instead. With the thickness of the case between the magnet and the plate, the phone is held securely but is easily removed. Best way to remove is to slide off sideways instead of pulling off directly. The base of the magnet has two different thickness grooves to slip over the slats of your A/C vent for a good fit. The only negative (small) is the phone blocks a portion of the vent and the magnet's base somewhat restricts adjustment of the vent. This unit allows me to put my phone in one secure place so I don't have to unbuckle my seatbelt to get into my pants pocket to answer the phone. You can remove the entire unit with magnet attached and use it as a stand on a tabletop. Very convenient. I bought two of these so I don't have move the unit from car to car. Now I still have one metal plate and 4 adhesive backed disks to use if ever needed. BTW. The entire unit has a soft rubber-like covering, so no scratches.
Without a doubt, a universal magnetic cell phone holder is a good investment. There are many different types available in the market, so be sure to test out a few before purchasing one.
