Handy little thing!
||Posted .I was in a rush to buy a dash mount for an upcoming trip the very next morning and didn't have a lot of time to research, or the luxury of ordering one online. I had to go directly to Best Buy and browse their in-store selection which, IMO, was pretty sparse. I read all the packaging on them and couldn't decide. I wanted something simple, but sturdy, that wouldn't damage my dash, or drop my new iPhone 6s. This one was tossed on the bottom shelf along with some other clearance items and the packaging was taped back closed (guessing it was a return/resale). I was skeptical but with not a lot of options, I just went for it. This thing is SUPER easy to use and SUPER sturdy. I cleaned my dash off beforehand. You just twist it to suction it on, and twist it back to suction it off (and pull the release tab). That's pretty much it. I was able to mount it on a flat level area of my dash as well as reposition it closer to the front on a slight curve and it still stayed solid as a rock. (Can't go too curvy though, I tried that and it was too easy to pop off.) As for the size adjustment, piece of cake. Top slides up and down for phone height (small notch locks it in place), and the bottom edges swivel out to the sides (or inward) to adjust for width. I was able to adjust this even after it was already mounted, to make my phone nice and snug. I used it for my trip and it didn't move an inch. I was even able to press buttons on my phone while it was mounted and it didn't wiggle or come loose. I was also able to plug my car charger in while it was mounted which was a must. After my trip I removed the mount and stored in my center console. (I've read that leaving them out on the dash for extended periods of time, in the sun, etc. is not good for the mount, or your dash.) I just love how simple this is and that it doesn't take up any space at all or have too many moving parts or complicated adhesives. Just what I was looking for. It also came with a bonus USB adapter to charge your phone in the car. Side note: I'm noticing that the photo representation of this item doesn't look exactly like mine. I've attached a photo of my exact model.

Works Great for Most Things
||Posted .I love this mount. It's helped me get from point A to point B many times now. It fits a wide variety of phone sizes too (more on that below). Two problems I want to mention: First, the suction cup gets dirty (and is rendered useless) very quickly due to its sticky texture. Fortunately, it cleans off easily with just a little bit of water and some gentle rubbing. Second, the neck of the mount isn't quite long enough (or the angle of the mount isn't flexible enough) for the angle of my windshield. With my 5 inch phone in either a horizontal or vertical state, I can't make the suction cup make contact with the windshield in order to mount it. I've ended up putting it on my dash where it works great though.

Works well
||Posted .So this works pretty well, unlike other stands with suction the holder basically dosen't move. Drove 3000+ miles on a road trip and had to put it back on once, probably because the elevation change had changed the pressure it was stuck to the dash with. It get's 4 stars for two reasons, with a case the iphone 5s which I have dosen't fit super snug. Still, it stays in for the most part. The final complaint is that the top part of the holder is very close to the power button, so sometimes getting the phone in their you end up turning off your screen. Minor complaints, so 4*'s it is.

Gets the job done
||Posted .A little difficult to mount because you have to turn a dial to lock it down while at the same time pressing it down firmly on the dash. Could require you to be a bit of a contortionist depending on where you mount it. I suggest wiping down the mounting location with iso-alcohol. I have a protective case on my phone and it does not seem that the phone mounts very securely but to date the phone has not fallen out even on rough roads. I have another style of Bracketron mount in my truck that I like better than this one but I do not regret this purchase and to be honest, this is in my wifes car and she's quite happy with this one.

Works just OK
||Posted .I bought this because it was one of the few docks available at the store that would work for my phone Samsung S5. I mount phone mounts like this to my dash typically and this mount has a fixed angle on the arm, such that I can not bring my phone down any closer to the dash. This makes the phone stick up, into my normal field of view, more than I would like. It also has no way of tightening the pivot point. This makes the phone way too easy to move when you are pushing tactile buttons on the phone. It also makes the phone way too apt to vibrate when driving down the road. I only rated this mount as high as I did because it does work as a vehicle mount, before buying this I was stuck having to put my phone in a cup holder. I'm just not very happy with it's performance. Previous to getting my Samsung S5, I owned Motorola phones and they always had very solid vehicle mounts, with build in power connections and a clip point to mount the headphone jack to the stand. Going from that, to this, has been a huge disappointment.

Fantastic but short
||Posted .I love this mount! It holds my phone very steady and mounts to the dash well. Unfortunately, I can't use it to mount to the windshield because the neck is too short for my phone to clear the angled glass. The grip is a suction cup that is slightly sticky which really helps it stay on whatever surface I put it on. The only thing to watch for with sticking it is to make sure the base is clean (this is most easily done with a little bit of water and gentle rubbing to remove particles)

Good but flawed
||Posted .I didn't want to use an adhesive, so a suction cup phone mount sounded like a good idea. It was great for awhile. It's very unobtrusive, it held my HTC Ten just fine. The set up was inconvenient for my phone since it either covered up my charging port or headphone port. Minor inconvenience and one I was willing to live with. Major gripe was the suction failed to work after I tried to move it from its original position to a more convenient one. It wouldn't attach after several attempts even after cleaning both the cup and the dash with water and air drying. If it had adhered after moving, I would highly recommend this but because it failed to hold my phone conveniently I cannot recommend this to others

Does the job for me!
||Posted .I purchased an open box version even after reading a few negative reviews. For the price, it was worth a shot. I have no idea why someone wrote their phone won't fit. Is it their iPad?? My iPhone 5 in a big waterproof case is held just fine. The only time the mount has NOT stuck is when i pull on the phone without lifting the latch. I do have it mounted on a non-textured surface in front of the clock display on my Accord. Maybe it's different on a textured dash. I can probably guarantee it would work on the windshield just great as well. Love how I can tilt it back to plug power into bottom if needed. Very happy with this purchase.
