Scosche - Car Holder for Mobile Phones - Black

My 2016 Honda CR-V has a cut out in the top dash for a small screen which works in conjunction with the radio, nothing of major importance, so this holder fit perfectly in this area to hold my iPhone for navigation. I was concerned because the dash has a pebble texture and my past experience has shown me that these types of holders never work with this type of dash surface. This one does and does it well. I put it on once and never removed it and it has stayed strong throughout Multiple uses. The clamp is tight, very tight so it takes some force to open the jaws which puts twisting forces on the clamp and most clamps of this type would be twisted off the dash, causing you to remount it when you need it most. This one has stayed mounted. I followed the instructions and I’m very happy to own it. Works great.

It's Okay for what it's suppose to be - a phone holder. expected the holder part to have a screw where you could adjust the width of the holder once and leave it there. But for this particular model, you have to stretch it out every time and that's a bit inconvenient for me. It takes a bit of effort to stick the base to the surface of your dashboard; else the whole thing just topples over because of the weight of your phone.

This isn't the best car holder for your mobile phone, but it isn't the worst either. The only thing I don't like about it is if you want to gently loosen the grip of the clamping arm to place your phone into it, it's not easy to just do it with one hand. Especially if you are in the middle of driving. And if you pull your phone out of the device, it snaps back really loud. It makes me feel like it'll break after a while if it keeps doing that when you try to remove your phone from it.

I had hoped to attach this to my dashboard but mine had too much texture and not enough flat space. However, it has attached securely, and worked well low in the center of my windshield so that I can see the driving directions as I drive, without impeding my view. I also use my hands-free speaker system in my car and my husband has reported that this placement provides better clarity and sound quality than any other place I have tried to put the phone (cup holder, passenger seat, center console, etc.)

Loved the idea of this cell phone holder. The only problem was it blocked my vision on the dash of my car which was the only place I could put it. I have a large Android phone and was able to use it vertical or horizontal, but with the design of my dashboard it was right in the line of vision. Great cell phone holder if you have the right dashboard design of car.

I have figured it out but not mounted it in my car. Fits my phone (up to 3.5" width) fine; a little hard to open and it can pinch your fingers if you are not careful. Seems to stick pretty permanently to your vehicle. Not a temporary mount; has gummy stuff to attach to surface. Not sure how that will react in the car. There are many other phone holders out there that seem much better and cost less. Look around first.

I've had this attached just behind my rear view mirror for months without any problems. It IS possible to have these lose grip, but that seems to be always caused by not cleaning them or the windshield properly prior to attaching. If you remove them at all, assume you need to wash them thoroughly and not touch them with anything that might leave a thread, much less lint.

This thing is a piece of junk! When it does stick to the window or dash (for a short time of like 2 minutes before just falling off) it shakes and wobbles so bad its rough to read/follow the GPS directions. I should be able to just glance at the phone to see if I'll need to take a left or right next and I can't do that with this even if I could get it to stick. It's just junk. Do NOT buy.
