Most of them are for smaller phones
I would prefer one that sticks to the windscreen like a satnav other than clipping onto the air vents
Well, I say best. I just need something basic, so cheap would be good BUT I'm hesitant to buy any non-branded cheap Chinese products from eBay in case they're really bad (don't want my N4 to drop and crack)
Cheers
I really like the iOttie 1 touch mount. 1 handed phone mount/dismount and the suction cup is ridiculously strong.

Agree, it's been outstanding. Sticks to any flat surface.
Capdase Car Mount Holder for LG Nexus 4 is not bad.
I use the one for the Galaxy S3 here. It is rock solid and is adjustable.
I only paid £10.95 from Amazon tho'
I bought one of these a couple of weeks ago: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/supergrip-universal-case-compatible-car-mount-p30552.htm
It's not the cheapest (£17.95!!) but it was well worth the money. I've had various naff quality ones that don't stick, look cheap or fall to bits. This one looks better than in the pics, looks good when the phone is in or out, sticks brilliantly (I've tried just on the dashboard and on the windscreen!). I know there's other alternatives that offer charging etc but for just a decent holder this one is better than anything I've had (and I've tried a LOT).

I use the same mount and it works brilliantly, tried plenty of others too, but it is the only one which doesn't wobble about/swivel or fall off on its own. Well worth trying. You can also find a few cheaper versions for around £5-6 on Amazon which look nearly identical, although I guess it is a bit of a gamble as far as quality goes then.
Thanks for the suggestions guys, do you all mount it on the windshield or find mounting it on the dash/vents is better?
http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/attac...ande-punto-test-drive-review-fiatpuntoilg.jpg
that's my dash (pic from google) so I was thinking maybe sticking it to the dash above the central air vents. how would I stick it to this? adhesive?
If you get the one I mentioned, it'll stick directly to the dash with the suction cup.
With some other mounts you have to mount a plastic disk (using double sided tape) so they suction has a smooth flat surface.
Whats the sticky gel on the 4th mobilefun picture? does it leave a residual on what you stick it on and does it get less sticky over time?
I wonder if anyone could suggest good airvent/grill car mount as I hate obstructing the windscreen. It should be low profile and be able to rotate in all directions. Maybe even universal as i still have HTC desire and use it from time to time as ive got different simcard in that. Tried looking for some but most are either in China or in USA and the ones I saw that I would like do not ship to UK.
Any suggestions? Thank you.

Having tried many over the years Brodit do the best holders IMHO. The adjustable iphone4 holder is a fantastic fit on the nexus 4 and u can adjust it to whatever case or bumper you have for a perfect fit. Mounting option is dependant on your car and though pricey the upshot is if you change car or phone you only have to replace half of your holder rather than the whole thing.
I bought this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Exogear-Exo...Phone-5-Android-Phone-GPS-Black-/130782407854
I've been very happy with it and it sticks perfectly on my car (VW Golf IV Variant 2001) dashboard which isn't too smooth and a normal suction cup would't attach to it but exomount would.
I use the $10 GripGo.. No issues at all, cheapest one I've found, and works as well as any other I've had. Yet it works with any device!
Ram mounts...
I've ran Ram Mounts for years, started with GPSr mounts, now I run a double mount, holds both my GPSr and cell phone on the dash. It's a modular system. Get the cradle you need, the mount type you want, and whatever arms you need to connect the two.. I use the same cradle for my GPSr units in my truck, on the bike, on the quads, all i do is mode the cradle and arm from place to place... But it can get pricey, depending on how complex a setup you run... But on the same now, you can get parts to rig up everything from a cell phone/GPSr up to laptop computers....
the Ram X-Grip I'm currently using does have a habit of adjusting the volume if the phone is centered in the bracket, but it's easy enough to offset the phone slightly. I've used the same cradle for my last 3 phones.
I'm currently in the process of mating a google orb to the xgrip to provide wireless charging in my truck without having to worry about the phone sliding or falling...

What you can do is purchase another backplate for the phone and buy velcro and mount like that, but if changing plates all the time is too much of a pain here is a amazon search

Nice to know I'm not the only Velcro-Jockey out there! I got a closeout "case-thing" from the Verizon store that only wraps around the sides, so it pops off quickly, and that's what my velcro is on.
I've been using the Scosche Universal Windshield and Vent Mount:
Can't post links , I bought it from Amazon though.
It's pretty adjustable, 90° rotation, flexible arm, fits a lot of different devices as well. I've had it for almost half a year now with no problems.
I use my innocase belt clip that came with my innocase II, and just built/bent a place to clip it to out of clothes hanger. Took a little work with the dremel to expose the charging jack and the headphone jack while it is mounted facing me, but works great!
I bought mine from walmart for $6. It's a vent mount I picked up in the automotive section.
ProClip(proclipusa dot com) has both powered and unpowered versions. Never tried one, but I've read good reviews on other boards. A little pricey as it's a two part system - a vehicle mount and a device adaptor. I'm thinking of trying the standard non-powered version for the Eris. Only concern is that it doesn't look like it will accomodate a protective case on the phone.
Another option is the "Universal" smart phone mount from Semsons(semsons dot com). I have dealt with them before for GPS and PDA stuff - no problems. I've got a universal PDA vent mount that I think was a freebie from them with a BT GPS purchase. I've used it for years - works OK with the Eris.
I got a universal vent dock that works for my Eris. U have a pretty nice setup as I also have a connection for hooking up cd players to a car's tapedeck. I no longer listen to the radio, and I gave up on CD's a long time ago.
custom dock
Im personally not a fan of vent docks or universals. I found a how to on lifehacker as to make a custom car dock. Granite its not like the moto droid with the magnet, but hell its much better than a universal windshield or vent mount.
Fact is you get any gps mount off ebay. I had an old magellan gps mount laying around. Average price for one off ebay is anywhere from $3-10
Grab a hard case off ebay. I picked one that had a belt clip on it for $2. Shipped.
I had to break the clip off and file it flush.
You can use Rearview mirror windshield mount sticker ,but I didnt have any so I just used standard epoxy. Im sure superglue will work.
Glue the hard plastic case onto the gps mount and your result will end like this.
Sorry for the crappy pics. Taken with my phone on KAOSFROYO 36 and camera works when it wants. Quailitys not that great but you get the picture.
Enjoy.
Has anyone seen a car dock available yet? I'm coming in from a long line of WinMo phones from the Tilt2 all the way back and even on Ebay I've been able to find SOMETHING. So far either for the DesireHD or the Inspire it's a little barren. Anyone seen anything useful? I don't need speakerphone or anything like that, just charging.
I installed this under the driver's seat for my tilt2 and now use it with the inspire.

Generally when you buy something so cheap from China you expect it's crap and it'll go in the trash the moment you get them, but believe it or not both are pretty good, especially the skin. I got them together for $8.50, arived only a week after shipping, and he even through in a free screen protector.

Great quality, really helps with the slick feeling of the phone. Fits like a glove.

I've tried pretty much every type of mount and this is the best IMO:
- No bouncing whatsoever.
- Puts the phone in optimal position on the center console
- No need for suction cup or double side tape on dash
- Portable. Came in handy during a recent vacation.

I actually bought the same exact mount from another site it was like a dollar more but I bought a few other things so it worked out to about the same price and all from one place. I love the design of it and I drive a 2007 Focus so the vents are in the PERFECT spot for this. I hate suction cup mounts with a passion because I'm really anal about my window being clean lol. What's nice about this particular mount too is the fact that they sell different mounts that simply just swap the phone holder. They sell bike mounts, suction cups, and more on the site I picked it up from.

Mount
*edit* Just realized that the site is sold out of the vent mount at the moment.
Hi, I have just ordered this item from ebay at a cost of $1.87 including shipping!
I assume quality won't be all that great, but I had the same thing for a HTC Touch HD which cost around $15 and never had any issues with it.
So if anyone's looking for a bargain car vent holder here you go
Completely forgot about vent holders, my suction mounts keep falling off so providing it fits my car this is a far better option.
Only ever set my vents to screen and footwell anyway, so not worried about the phone overheating
I don't suppose you know if that's portrait or landscape ?
It's a bit difficult to tell from the pics.
Screen mount is a pain for me as I've got a Ford Galaxy, the mahoosively deep dash means if I use a screen mount it has to be one of the long snakey ones that wobble about like an essex girls backside

pmsl. I would say that it's landscape.

I might have a punt on one, the trouble with the early Galaxy dashes is they are too curvy for a suction mount as well.
I'll deffo need one soon though as I'm off out in a mo to pick up a double din DVD and screen head unit, already got the Nokia composite AV lead, that just leaves a set of optic and a beer tap to fit and I need never leave the drive lol
Have been using this for a few months. Its landscape only but very useful. Recommended
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
that is a nice find !
i like it
i always prefer vent holders than the windshield suction ones, it works way better
I ordered 3 from eBay, hoping to sell the other 2 on craigslist. But since using them for about a month, all 3 are up on craigslist. The holder can be mounted either portrait or landscape by unscrewing the back of the mount and rotating the base to whichever position you prefer. The biggest problem I have with it is the 2 vent pins (or hooks) easily slide out of the slots in the back of the thing. Every time you remove the SGS from it, you'll have a problem with the loose pins. If I drove in a straight line this would not be a problem. I guess I could engineer a solution to the problem, like using a buck store soldering iron to fuse the pins in place or crazy gluing them. But that would involve investing time sitting in my car, trying to get them at the right angle for my round vents. And I just did 3 hours of that installing a Sony bluetooth radio, which means I can put the SGS in the cupholder, and listen to the turn-by-turn, phone calls and music through the radio.
yes I can't see the SGS in my line of sight. But the hassle of carefully removing the phone from this thing. And not having the feeling of solidness the mounting should offer without spending time reinforcing it has me passing on putting a expensive piece of hardware in it. You really do get what you pay for.
great find! thanks

I highly recommend this great universal car mount. It may be the best one on the market.
http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Windshield-INCREDIBLE-BlackBerry-Revolution/dp/B007FHX9OK
Pros:
- The suction cap is very strong on smooth and on grooved surfaces.
- Adjustability in every direction.
- Tightening joints.
- Levers for one hand phone release and a quick button to grab it.
- Adjustment for phone height.
Cons:
- It vibrates a little when the car is running but not enough to bother me
- No wireless charging. Plugging cables is not that much fun but maybe I can DIY something later.
I use an iottie flex 2 really good. I don't put it on the dash though only on the windshield.
For a generic, it looks over priced to me.

True. The price hovers around $20.
To me it's worth paying the money for a good car mount, you guys can decide for yourselves.
Although the stand itself could be replicated for a fraction of the price I doubt
generic mounts use the same quality suction cap. The dash on my car where i have it is curved
and the surface itself is grooved. The suction cap is not made out of rubber and is very hard
to pull out even when the latch is up.
This thing works great. It has enough space to fit the Nexus 4 with a bumper. I also mounted a NFC sticker behind it to automatically open maps and start bluetooth. Works flawlessly. One complaint, the suction cup is too sticky. I have to pull really hard to get the gel cup to release from my dashboard.
Another vote for the iottie Have one in my car and it's perfect! As others have noted, the suction cup is STRONG! Which is a good thing....
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
seems a bit overpriced =)
The iOttie carries a premium in price because of its patented suction cup.
I've had my eye on them for a while, and supposedly the suction cup can work on your dash, even if it has ridges/grooves/isn't perfectly straight.

Unfortunately this is a no-go for me as my CD player slot is behind my touch screen, and I actually use it, so this would not work for me. Thanks for your time, however.
I use the Bracketron Earth Elements Si magnetic mount, it works amazingly well. The magnet is easily strong enough to hold the phone securely, I've never had mine fall or shift even going over seriously bumpy back roads, and it has little feet that flip out for the phone to rest on that make it even more sturdy. You need to put a small metal plate on or in the back of the phone somewhere to give the magnet something to grip, I have mine under my battery cover because I use an S-View case but for you it would be even easier as you can just put the plate underneath your Spigen between it and the phone. As far as convenience and ease of use goes, I haven't found anything that even comes close! Once you try a good magnetic mount you'll wonder how you ever got along without it
Here's the link to the Bracketron site, like I said I use the Si mount but they also have a gooseneck version if you'd prefer.

I use an iBolt xPro, bought it a couple of years ago for my Galaxy S3, it fits fine for my Note 4 with Seidio Dilex Pro. It's adjustable in bot axes. I'd contact them and check about your case (if you like this one) to ask about your case/phone combo.

iOttie One Touch XL Windshield Dashboard Car Mount Holder for Amazon Fire Phone and iPhone 6 Plus (5.5), Galaxy S5/S4/Note4/Note3 (HLCRIO101)

I originally bought it for my Note 2 back in 2013. I now own a Note 4, I also have a Spigen Tough Case and it still fits perfectly.

I bought one of these in April of last year for my Note 2, as well. However, when it arrived broken, I decided not to stick with it, and wound up not getting anything.

This one seems interesting. I may look into it and go with it. It's a bit higher priced, but it has some extra features that seem nice.
will the iOttie One Touch XL hold the note 4 with it's UAG case, or it's to big for any car mount?
I'm not looking for a magnetic one or CD/vent holder. just regular suction cup, that can hold a large case like the UAG.

Hey all. I need a good car dash recommendation for my Note 4.
Hi Majin, the xProDock from iBOLT has just become available in a new version that includes a 2.1 Amp car charger with an integrated Bluetooth aux-out streamer & hands-free, see http://www.amazon.com/iBOLT-xProDock-Bluetooth-Charging-aux-out/dp/B00PPAQRUW/ This is awesome if you have a car-stereo with a standard 3.5 mm aux-in port but without support for audio streaming (so called "A2DP"). See this short YouTube video how the streaming part works... Because Android phones can handle two Bluetooth connections at once (iPhone can't!) you can set this little unit to stream music/gps to your car-stereo and have a 2nd Bluetooth solution for hands-free. They will both reconnect automatically when you step into the car... Always cool to stream Pandora, Spotify, iHeart etc. to the car-stereo
The xProDock includes a pre-programmed NFC tag so you can start "DockMode" automatically when you step into the car. The free Dock'n Drive App (link) can start Bluetooth automatically, turn off WiFI, start the Hotspot and much more plus that it gives you a cool interface when you drive. Of course you can download this and use it with any other car-dock too.
Good luck finding the right solution for you!

Thanks. Unfortunately for me, I didn't wait. I bought the other one last month on the 22nd. I really like it, and to me the only downside is I need to reconnect the Bluetooth to my car stereo everytime I get in. A small downside, however.
Thanks again, i'd recommend this one to folks looking for a newer solution.

I have a truck and the iOttie touch 2 is amazing I have a note 4 in a spigen case and it goes no where and could not say better things about it.
Did you guys tried this one?

I bought it for my note4 but since it comes withbtwo magnets i also use with my tab 10.1. Awsome stuff. No pain when getting in the car. Just touch the magnetic pad and it never came off. Best 20€ i spent. Give it a try. I was looking for years for something that worked half as good as this!

Found a store near me that sells both the iOttie One Touch XL & Easy One Touch 2. both fits the Note 4 with good grip. but when added with the UAG case, which is pretty thick, the XL holds it better. still, it's not 100% fit with the UAG case, but will do the job. so i bought it, had the chance to test it and so far it's great.

Get the holder and then choose whatever base you want. I had one of the x-mounts on my motorcycle and the phone never came out unless I TOOK it out.
Might be MORE than what you're looking for, but.... *shrug*

I've always liked RAM mounts because they tend to be bombproof, rock solid. I got this one for windshield mounting my Note 4:

I really like the easy adjustment for different viewing angles.
Recommend the Bull's eye car mount, the world's smallest one made from the highest quality anodized aluminium alloy
