Bracketron - Mi-T Grip CD Slot/Vent Mount for Most Cell Phones - Gray/Black

This is the only CD slot phone holder that fits my 2010 Lexus IS250, because the shifter knob is very close to the CD player. I mounted it to the far left in the CD slot and the shifter doesn’t hit my phone at all. Looks good and is low profile from the dash, so it looks sleek compared to some that stick out farther from the dash. It’s all plastic, I wouldn’t tighten the knob for the rotating joint too much because it does feel like it could break with excessive force. Hopefully it lasts a long time. There are soft pads that stick on the grips going into the CD slot and give the device a nice hold. Doesn’t feel like it will slip out while using it. It’s secured by pressing the two sides in and after its placed in the slot you release the sides and it automatically tightens into place. The only downside is you can’t opporate this with one hand. It’s arms that hold the phone have springs that force them together (which holds the phone nicely) but this setup means one hand has to pull the hands apart while setting the phone into place with the other hand. Minor issue, but if you’d prefer a holder that you close with one hand and release with a button press then this may not work for you. Like I said, this is the only one that fits in my car, so it’s worth a tiny inconvenience. I’ll update if anything changes, but so far it’s working as I wanted.

I really like this cuz it holds my device securely without any adhesive materials. The ball joint lets me choose angles effectively and the charge port is accessible without any issues. I also really like that it doesn’t block any of my views while driving. I use the Cd slot option, but I like that I could switch to using a vent if I wanted to. I don’t have to use the actual cd slot as my car has an extra slot to use.

Very simple to set up, works as indicated. Pivots well and hasn’t come loose. Holds iPhone XR just fine.

I hated my vent holder because of heat blowing on my phone during winter. I stumbled on this CD holder somehow and I'm glad i did because i love it!!! It keeps my phone within arms reach at the perfect height. LOVE the fact that I can use my CD slot rather than the vent.

I'm not a fan of cell holder that goes in the air vents. The clamps hold the cell phone great, but being in the vents, my air vents, it doesnt hold up well.

The number of vehicles coming with a CD player now-a-days is shrinking, but if you have one and no longer use your CD player, this is a very sold mount. I wouldn't recommend it for someone to wants to use their CD player on a regular basis. For me it was just a useless slot in the dash, so it works great. The arms grip your phone tightly and I've never had mine fall out. (Maybe almost a little too tight and I have a score of "4" on ease of use for this reason, but I'm ok with it being too tight rather than too loose.) It is pretty easy to install and it stays put. The only real weak point is the ball joint. If you have a heavier phone and rough roads, your phone will eventually start sagging downward.

Phone is at normal sight range, which make following directions so much easier. See who called or texted without the need to look down or grab your phone. I bought for one for each family member last Xmas, saw how it made the phone in the car safer. I finally found one at my local store and bought for myself.

Great product. Holds the phone very well. My kids and I can use it with different phones. Love the hands free.
