this is one of my favorite products. I tried so many phone holders, this is one of the best that stays hooked to the air-condition vent, and everyyyy once in a while you need to tightening it up. i got it as gift also for family members and told my friends about it and they liked it too when they bought it.

Works well

This is a well-designed car vent mount for virtually any style phone. The arms open wide, to allow for larger phones or small tablets to be held comfortably. The "lock" for the vent has 2 sizes- fully closed and partially closed. This may be an important feature for some. For example, I have an old Jeep Wrangler and the vents are much thicker than my daily driver, so this mount can be used in either vehicle.My phone (Moto G something- my wife's iPhone is in the pictures) is on the heavier side and it held the phone in place even while driving over potholes. In my experience with other mounts, they typically always fall off with rough riding, heavy phones or repeated use. Another nice feature is the release button on the back. When you press the button it slowly releases the arms securing the phone. This is important because it doesn't put strain on the actual mount because you are not pulling at the mount. Because it releases slowly to your control you don't have to worry about a quick release causing your phone to fall out as soon as the button is pressed.One issue I've encountered with other vent mounts is that they usually position the phone too close to the vent. If you frequently use your heat or a/c this can potentially damage your phone. This mount creates a reasonable distance from the vent to the phone, minimizing the risk of damage. Still, you should probably keep the vent you are using the mount on closed (especially while using the heater).Overall I am really pleased with this mount. The only thing keeping me from rating this 5 stars is that I would like to see a charging cord holder included (like a little rubber notch that you can slide the charging cord in to keep it in place) or a model that allows you to plug the charger into the mount to allow for wireless charging. My current phone doesn't support wireless charging so that's not a big deal for me but as someone who appreciates technology it would be a cool feature for future models.On a side note, I just want to note that there are no adhesives, suction cups or magnets to worry about. I've dealt with them in the past and every one I've tried is terrible. So that was another selling point for me.All in all, if you are looking for a mount for your phone that will stay in place and not obstruct your view while you are driving I highly recommend this product.

Don’t like it

In the car, I've always just tossed my phone into a cupholder and picked it up if I needed to do something with it. This worked fine, but it meant I couldn't use the cupholder, and it wasn't very convenient if I was using my phone as a GPS. So I decided to give this phone holder a try. I noticed that it was made by the same company that made my earbuds, which I've been happy with, so I trusted that it would be made well.Overall, this does the trick. It keeps my phone up on my dash, which makes it easier to glance at while keeping my eyes on the road. It's really easy to get my phone in and out of the holder, too. I just drop my phone in and squeeze the sides of the holder; this "grips" my phone and securely holds it in place. I haven't had any problems with it falling out or coming loose. To take my phone out, I just push a button and the grip gently releases. It's reliable, secure, and fulfills its intended function.There are some things that could make it better, but it's hard to expect these "extras" at the price I paid; this was a basic, budget-friendly solution. But in a more expensive unit, I would like to see something that allows for easier re-orientation. As it is, my phone is in the portrait orientation. I can switch it to landscape, but it requires two hands and a fair amount of effort re-align everything. I'd love to see a "switch orientation" button or something that makes it easier to toggle between these two perspectives on-the-fly. But for the price I paid, I really can't complain.Overall, this is a nice product, and a great value considering it's relatively low price point.

I actually just bought my second one the first one I bought close to five years ago. I’m buying a second one because I have used that one so much that I’ve lost a couple of the pads. Everything else works on it perfectly. It sits good on my vent, it holds my phone perfectly. It’s so easy to get my phone in and out of it and to clip it onto the vent I never feel like my phone is going to fall out and it feels very sturdy in the holder. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max.

I bought other models and they did not fit in my vent without having to have it side ways and then were not that stable for my car. I drive a 2019 Toyota Corolla. I was picking up my daughter from the airport in Chicago and using my GPS is almost a daily occurrence as I have to travel to unfamiliar places multiple times a week. My boyfriend did not like seeing me have to reach down and pick up my phone as I am a visual and audio traveler. My daughter does the same and had this in her bag when I picked her up. It fits amazing in my vents and allows it to be adjustable for up and down and sideways. I love it and it solves all my problems of visibilty and driving with not worring about where I am going. My boyfriend is trying them in all the company trucks to make sure they fit well and if so we will be ordering many more!!!
