Customers like the magnet strength of the portable electronic device mount. They mention that the phone sticks to the magnet like magic, and it creates a firm, secure mount.

Customers like the size of the portable electronic device mount. They say it's compact, portable, and blends well with the interior dash.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I have a 45 minute commute, and I use my phone for audiobooks, hooked to the car's bluetooth. I also use my phone as my GPS. I have a TomTom, but my phone works better, so the TomTom never comes out anymore. So I really needed something to attach my phone to the car.
The first method I tried was the sort that clips into your vent and grips the phone from the sides. That method didn't work. The holder itself was large and heavy, and because it caused the phone to jut out from the vent by about an inch, the vent tilted down and you couldn't see your phone. Plus, not all side-grippers work with all phones, and it's a pain to put the phone into the device. You can't do it once you start driving.
The second method I tried was the grippy rubber mat you put on your dash. Supposedly nothing slides off it, so your phone can sit on it. So long as you don't put your charger cord in (inevitably tugging the phone off the dash) it works OK... until the rubber gets dusty. Then it doesn't stick as well. Getting dust off rubber is not easy, let me tell you. And any method you use compromises the mat's stickiness.
The third method I tried was one of those devices that sticks into your CD player. It didn't fit into my CD player, though I tried. I even shaved the thing down to try to get it to work. No dice. Even if it had worked, I wouldn't be able to listen to CDs. Having been a teen in the 90s, I still listen to music on plastic discs.
The fourth method was this magnet. It's amazing. I put the large flat no-stickum metal plate INSIDE my phone, right on top of the battery, so you can't even see it. Nothing is adhering to any part of my phone. Nothing is glued onto my car. No rubber mats. Nothing jammed in my CD player.
How well does it work? You'd be suspicious that the magnet wouldn't work. It does. It holds my Galaxy S4 very well. I've tried taking some turns hard just to see, and it doesn't budge. It holds it firm, even with the charger cord plugged in, dragging it down. If you have the charger plugged in, the phone WILL gradually rotate out of landscape orientation, though, so you're stuck with portrait orientation if you're charging, unless you wrap the cable around the steering wheel or use some other sort of shenanigans.
"But Jon!" (you might say) "The S4 is not as big as my phone!"
Yes, true, the S4 is a little smaller than a lot of smartphones. But I had a rubber case on, making it larger. OK fine. It's still relatively small. To test it with a bigger phone, I tried it with my wife's Note 4, also with a rubber case on. Nobody would say a Note is a small phone! It stuck on just fine, and I took a turn pretty hard to test that one too. (Howard County Police, please forgive my driving. It was for science!)
As for vent tiltage (see failed method 1, above), no problemo! The magnet dohickey only sticks out about a quarter inch, so the phone winds up being flush with the dash, and it doesn't tilt.
It also looks good. The black is a little on the grey side, which matches the dark grey of my air vents almost perfectly (Hyundai Sonata) and the device looks attractive and subtle. I can even use the air vent (for AC, but not heat - but you should be using the floor vents for the heater in winter anyway!) because it only covers half the vent with the phone on.
All in all, I was very pleasantly surprised how well this worked, especially after trying three other, crummy, methods. Get this thing. It will improve your life.
Edit. Weeks later still works fine.
The base fits snugly onto the vent, and although it eliminates the ability to change the angle of the vent, that isn't a huge deal for me. Once it's in place, I can almost toss my phone up to it (no, I don't actually do that). The magnets hold it strongly in MULTIPLE positions, it doesn't have to be centered on the plate for maximum hold. The rubber coating on the base assists with this, preventing the device from sliding around and breaking magnetic contact when you hit bumps in the road. My phone covers about half of my vent when it's installed, which is fine, because the other half is pointed right at me :) and it only blocks half of one vent. (I have a 2013 Dodge Caravan so I'm sure different types of vents will produce different results)
Even with my AUX and charge cables plugged in it doesn't affect the strength of the magnet at all. I can have it in normal or landscape orientations (useful when using a GPS app) and coupled with Siri it makes it incredibly easy to use the device handsfree in the car. The magnet is strong enough that it prevents the device from spinning on the base (gravity pulling the heavier side down).
Another neat feature, and I'm sure this has been noted before, is that because the phone is attached to the vent it keeps it cool while charging on hot days, or when using GPS (the screen produces a fair amount of heat when it is on and at full brightness for an extended amount of time). I haven't used it in the winter when the heater is on, but I usually turn the heater to the defrost anyway so it isn't blasting warm air directly into my face.
Another important note is that this magnet base may work with many phones without the included metal plate - My wife just bought a Samsung Galaxy S8 and has a clear PC case on it, and without the metal plate the phone sticks to the base with no issues. Again, the magnet isn't strong enough to affect the components in the phone aside from perhaps the digital compass in a smartphone, but if it is affected strongly most smartphones have an alert that lets you know. My iPhone 6s has no issues with the compass while using this base and my wife's Galaxy S8 also has no loss of functionality in the digital compass (and the magnet is attracting directly to something inside her device!)
Five stars and two thumbs way up for this simple, cheap device that has revolutionized the way I personally use my phone in the car.
