Wow. Outperformed my expectations.
I didn’t expect much from this style of mount. I’m a fan of andobil and own a few of their products. Their phone mount that tightens into a cup holder is my favorite product. I decided to try this new phone mount based solely on the brand. At first I was skeptical at its ability to adhere to the dash. It does so very well. I also sat it on the floor mat and loaded it with lint and debris, effectively rendering it useless. Then rinsed it off with the hose. Let it dry and it mounted right to the dash like new. It’s not so much of a sticky back like tape is. It’s tacky like a cling decal. As far as the mount staying in place and being reusable I had no problem. For context I have a jeep with a padded leather-like dash. It’s dimpled/textured. The kind of dash that suction mounts won’t lock to. It’s also very curvy and rounded. This mount stayed where I put it through regular driving. I didn’t go off roading or hill climbing, but I did do some highway maneuvering and went over potholes and train tracks without issue. I thought putting my phone in and removing it from the mount was going to be impossible with one hand. At first it was. But with a little bit of technique and persistence I found how to insert and remove my phone one handed. I have an iPhone 8 in an Otterbox defender. So not a huge phone but bulky with this case. I also tested it without a case. Then I tested an LG G5 with and without an otterbox. I was able to get the one handed mount/removal technique down easily with the lg. All in all I was pleasantly surprised by this mount. It feels durable and no parts of it look like weak points or areas for concern. It’s super easy to move around, but stays in place when you’re driving. I live in the Midwest where it’s not uncommon to see all 4 seasons in a 24hour period. Suction mounts never work for me. This is the first dash mount I’ve had that leaves me confident in its ability to work in any weather. The only drawback to this mount, is the little rubber nubs that hold your phone in place. Depending on your orientation or specific device, those nubs can cover a tiny bit of your screen. It doesn’t at all in portrait, but in landscape it did slightly. Not enough to complain about but worth mentioning as it my bother some people. Read more
