    I received this as a Christmas gift. And finally received a magnetic phone case for my bday on 3/3 so i was able to finally use. It worked great for a couple days, then it literally broke off the base. No misuse, just using for my phone in my car and taking my phone off when I was done. Very disappointed.my Daughter also received as a gift and hers did the same thing!
