I have purchased three of these, the oldest about a year ago. The "older" versions I have (two) have a black "sticky" suction cup base. The one I just received had a clear sticky suction cup. I almost returned it thinking it was a non-sticky suction cup... until I removed the film covering the suction cup. I'll try to keep the Pros/Cons short: Pros - Suction cup is very sticky and I have yet to have one fall off on its own. I mount them on a clean windshield and have not tried mounting on a dashboard (though I would imagine you would need to clean it well beforehand). - Has not broken on me yet (all others I've tried (6) have broken within a year). - It holds all of my phones (Pixel XL, Nexus 6p, even my daughter's iPhone 6 Plus) WITH cases (Otterbox Defender series). - The jaw is strongly spring loaded. It holds my phones (in cases) very securely. (See Cons below.) Cons (minor) - Bendable tube is 6". The IPOW version is 7.6 inches long https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013Y4S2RQ/ . - It is made almost entirely out of plastic (what can be expected for ~$10?). - It requires two hands (though I struggle to imagine how you could use ANY of my past phone holders with one hand). - The jaw is pretty strongly spring loaded. I sometimes find it challenging to open. The IPOW "updated" version says their jaw is easier to open (than THEIR old version), if hand strength is an issue. Summary I didn't think I'd like this style of "jaw" clamping mechanism, but after having used it for awhile, I find it is my favorite. I have only been able to find two of this type, this one and the IPOW longer version (IPOW also makes a "Truck Mount" version that is 11 inches long). Even though it is plastic it has not broken after a year of heavy use (~4 times a day). I DO expect that these will break, I'm just saying that they have lasted for me and I have now bought three of them because of this. It is possible that the "upgraded" IPOW version may be even more durable. I will try them next, if this one breaks. I should note that after having so many of these phone holders break (I don't use magnet style because of my case and NFC use), I have found that you HAVE to learn to balance the pressure to open the clamp (on any of these) to reduce the strain around the suction cup area and the ball connection at the clamp. If you don't, these PLASTIC weak points WILL break. I really wish someone would make these with (quality) metal parts in the high failure locations, even if it would cost $30 or more. Perhaps with a "lifetime" warranty. At ~$10, I highly recommend this phone mount!

Worked as intended to. But not recommended for delivery drivers who constantly have to use their phones at every stop. The clamp is strong, hard to use one handed. It lasted me a year before the bendy arm broke from my constant adjusting. I expect it would've lasted much longer had i not had to use it 10+ a day.

I recently replaced this out of due to a fault of my own. Hence I felt it deserved a review. This product served me well and was a great phone holder with limitations. If you're not going to remove your phone much it's absolutely wonderful. But removal is a pain. It holds your phone securely but certainly it wouldn't be considered an easy in and out. The spring in the clip has a lot of tension on it and it could actually strain the muscles in your hand if you have to remove it and reinsert it regularly. I recommend it if you're not going to remove your phone much. But if you have to do a lot of in and out, I recommend you look elsewhere.

Great Phone Holder

The suction seems strong. I have only had the product for about 3 weeks now. I am curious to see if it will continue to be just as strong in the next couple of months. I have been able to leave it up in the extreme heat and it has remained intact. I do not care for the claw feature that holds the phone. You have to open it very wide to get the phone in, but I will say that the phone has never fallen out. You just have to take your time and make sure that it is secure. I do wish that it had a longer stem that could reach to the dash with some support in order to keep the phone from shaking in the claw when you're driving on the road and hitting numerous different bumps or potholes.

I thought upon receipt that the product seemed good, stuck to the window easily and held my phone fine (after a bit of struggle, as the mount hits parts on the phone right where the volume and/or power buttons are, so you have to adjust appropriately). Had the device for much less time than I would have expected before it flat out broke right off the suction cup (mount under the clamp down where the spring & device attach to the suction cup). So it was not longer usable as the suction cup is essentially no longer attached to the mount. Here's even more concern - the same thing happened on all 3 of the devices I bought within a very short time of each other. I informed the company of the issue via direct email, no response, and had pursued purchase of another much better product that I'm happy to say is working great and is such a better build for this type of a car window mount, way more sturdy & durable. I hadn't heard back and pinged on the refund request again, was asked for pics (which I could no longer provide as I'd thrown away the bad devices), and because they didn't trust my inquiry and the fact that it had been several months since I bought the item, I was told refunds would not be possible. So - buyer beware, this is a bad product, poorly built, doesn't hold up, will break, and likely you won't get a refund. Buy something else from another company.

These are probably the easiest car mounts EVER. Have been struggling earlier with a more sophisticated version, bought it 3x times - never worked after 3 Weeks. With this one I guarantee you wont fail. A shame really as some of these can really cause traffic incidents if not doing the simple tasks they supposed to snd will distract you by the faimure. Go with these bulletproof ones!

Muy bueno, agarra muy bien y es duradero

Bon produit, solide et simple d'utilisation

Veramente ottimo prodotto, la pinza ha una presa solida e stabile, il braccio non ondeggia più del dovuto durante la marcia della macchina e i movimenti che subisce, la ventosa non cede né d'inverno sotto zero, né d'estate a 50 °C. Grande qualità costruttiva, è un prodotto molto qualitativo come pochi altri si trovano per questa categoria di prodotti e tra l'altro è disponibile pochi euro. Consigliato a chi cerca un modo per avere il telefono appeso in macchina, visibile e orientabile.

I love this car mount! Works really well! The suction never comes off unless you remove it yourself. The only suggestion I would make is, make sure to bend the connector in the position you want when you first set it up. It is bendy and repositionable at the beginning but over time, the heat from sunlight hardens the plastic so if you tried to force bend it after some time, it will break. I actually broke one after that happened to me and bought a new one because it’s serves its purpose with good value (less than $15)

Très bien. Ça fait un moment que je cherchais un support pareil et je l’ai trouvé. Je le recommande. Le point négatif la membrane flexible est duuuure.
