    Overall great deal for the price. It clips into the air vent grill but since this and the phone are heavy, it will sway side to side. I like it

    This is one of the best purchases I have ever made! It’s so easy to put in and take out, and the fact that I don’t have to clip my phone in because it’s just a magnet is amazing.

    The Perfect Solution for Hands-Free Driving

    I recently purchased the Magnetic Car Mount for iPhone from Best Buy, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase! This mount has completely changed how I interact with my phone while driving. The mount attaches securely to my car's vent, and it hasn't budged since I installed it. I love that it doesn't obstruct my view of the road at all, yet keeps my phone easily accessible. The magnetic hold is incredibly strong and works perfectly with authentic Apple phone cases. Even on bumpy roads, the mount keeps my iPhone firmly in place. Before purchasing this mount, I was concerned about my phone slipping or falling off, but those worries quickly disappeared once I started using it. Overall, I highly recommend the Magnetic Car Mount for iPhone from Best Buy to anyone in need of a reliable, hands-free solution for using their phone while driving. It's a game-changer!

    Does exactly what it’s intended to do at a more affordable price than other brands. Make sure your Iphone has MagSafe feature and a case that doesn’t prohibit that to work. Be aware that this is a vent mount so if you blast heat on it while phone is connected you will at some point get the phone overheating message. Connection is strong and product works well.

    Make sure you have a MagSafe compatible phone case! That’s the only thing you need. I’m using even and off brand $5 case and it holds like glue. Secure it by pushing it all the way in (that’s what she said) and center your phone with it. When removing try a downward or turning motion so that you don’t bring the holder with you or loosen it. $10 well spent, don’t regret at all. Stay happy my friends

    This phone charger is great, has a very steady strong hold. It also has a very nice and sleek look. I would recommend it if you are only looking for a phone holder, not a wireless charger, like I thought it was. Also a great buy for the price.

    It is decent and easy to use with strong magnetic strength. I think the strength of the rotating thing is going to depend on the weight of the phone and could be worn out over time. It is good to buy if you don’t like car mounts on windshield. But it is going to block the air from the vent you put this on.
