Absolute banger of a car mount that locks-in without fail!
The media could not be loaded. I had been casually teasing the need to buy a spare car mount for my phone for some time now. I want to use it to watch movies, listen to raunchy podcasts, doom scroll social media and pretend-read books while waiting in the passenger seat. I finally pulled the trigger on this mount and so glad that I did. There are a plethora of car mount products out there so it's hard to discern what actually works well and what is mostly marketing. I specifically wanted a mount that didn't block my air vents, and was pleasantly surprised that Andobil released this new mount recently. I already own and actively use another product of theirs, the magnetic phone grip ring holder, so I had a strong inclination that the quality would be equally superb. Unsurprisingly, this mount is amazing. Admittedly, I was a tad skeptical if the base would be secure enough as I have had bad experiences with suction mount systems in the past. Often times, the suction performs poorly under cold or hot temperatures. For reference, I use a naked iPhone 15 Pro Max with no case - yes I am that guy lol. These fears were quickly alleviated after I installed the mount on a cold frigid day ~25F NYC. I ran some controlled stress tests where I set my phone in varying positions and angles while driving, to check if it would fall. I had my hands ready in case of any slight chance of a drop, but this mount exceeded my expectations. I even tested the mount on some indoor tiled walls (bathroom). It just sticks! The mounting base system uses a combination of a strong suction cup + adhesive surface pad. The 3-step setup is simple; you wipe the dashboard spot clean, stick the base, and lock it tight by turning the base. You can readily change your phone position and viewing angle by adjusting the magnet arm. Just be sure to detach your phone before doing so. In terms of aesthetics and quality, this mount has a clean, sleek and minimalist design. I can tell that every part is well machined and thoughtfully considered. The hinges and discrete parts are sturdy and move cohesively together. The Magnet is super strong and rigid just like the ring holder. The mount has a good weight to it; it doesn't feel flimsy or plasticky. The durability of the reusable mounting base is yet to be determined over the long haul, but so far it has held up very well. I can wholeheartedly recommend this mount; it is exceptional value and I would gladly mount my naked phone on it without question or fear of it dropping. My perception has also changed on suction mounts - I guess they are not all the same haha. I have increasingly become a huge fan of Andobil and am excited to see what they offer in the future!
