Magnetic Phone Holder for Car WixGear 2 Pack Universal Air Vent Magnetic Phone Mount for Car Car Phone

Love these! I use a set in my personal vehicle and a set in the work truck. (This comes with two sets.) Works better than any other vent clip or dash suction cup holder I’ve tried. The magnet holds well. I’ve used mine for over a year, and it just now seems to not be holding quite as well, but I think it might be because my case is a bit dirty and the metal piece inside my phone case might have slipped. This whole entire time I’ve just used one magnet vent holder with one metal pad inside my phone case (an Otterbox case), but I could have the option of putting two metal plates in my phone with two magnet vent holders that would hold it even more strongly. It holds my phone at the perfect place in my SUV. I use the Map on my phone a lot, and this keeps it in perfect view next to my steering wheel. Sometimes I close the vent it sits on, to avoid throwing a lot of heat directly on my phone, but I’m not sure if it would matter. Read more

The WixGear Magnetic Phone Holder is simple, sturdy, and works perfectly. Installation took seconds, and the magnet is strong enough to hold my phone securely, even on bumpy roads. I love that it comes as a 2-pack with extra metal plates, so I can use it in multiple cars or share one. Compact, reliable, and excellent value for the price! Read more

Holds Well but Rotation Could Be Better This WixGear magnetic phone holder comes as a two-pack, which is convenient if you use more than one car or want a spare. The magnet itself is strong enough to hold my phone securely, even over bumps and during quick turns, which gives me confidence it won’t fall. Installing it into the air vent was simple—just push and it clips in snugly. That said, the design isn’t perfect. Once the phone is mounted, it doesn’t swivel or rotate as freely as I’d like. It tends to stay fixed in one position, so adjusting angles while driving is limited. Also, depending on the vent style in your car, the weight of the phone can sometimes make the vent sag a little. Still, for the price and the fact you get two, this is a practical option if you don’t mind minor adjustments. It’s small, discreet, and doesn’t clutter the dashboard like some bulkier mounts. Bottom line: A simple, strong magnetic holder that gets the job done, but expect limited flexibility in adjusting viewing angles. Read more

UPDATE #3: It’s now been almost 8 years since my purchase and I still love and use this car mount. I’m still using it with my iPhone 13 but since switched to the MagOne 2nd Gen phone gripe, which it works wonderfully with. UPDATE #2: Came to Amazon to buy new magnetic plates for a new phone and figured I’d update my review to mention that it’s now been almost 4 years since my purchase and I still love the simplicity of this car mount. I especially love how it still works with a a Love Handle strap attached to the case (read review for details). I originally used it with an iPhone 7 Plus and now use it with an iPhone 13. UPDATE #1: 2 years later and still love this car mount. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I’ve used a few different car mounts, including magnetic types and none of them even come close to how simple and easy this one is to use. A prior magnetic car mount I used came with a bulky magnet that went on my phone and a similar magnet that clipped onto to the vent. However, the magnet that was attached to my phone damaged every credit/debit card I owned as I often carry my wallet against my phone in one hand. The magnet on my phone apparently interfered with the magnetic strips. The other mount I used is the type that has tension arms that hugs your phone, which then attaches via a vent clip. Having an iPhone 6 Plus and now a 7 Plus, it really pushed the arm tension to the max. I would have to remove the mount from the vent to squeeze my phone into the arms each time I used it and often, the mount would come off the vent when trying to release my phone. As a result, the rubber on the prongs began to stretch, tear and bunch up into the gaps meant for the vent. I tried to cut it back but then it wouldn’t fit snuggly and the revealed metal scratched the plastic vent. When that mount broke, I ordered this one, making sure that the magnetic plates did not affect the magnetic strips of debit/credit cards. I’ve had this mount for over a year now and it hasn’t damaged a single one. Since my phone is large and heavy, I positioned both magnetic plates horizontally within the inside of my phone’s case, which is a decently thick hard shell case. This ensures that almost the entire back side of my phone can be attached to the car mount so I can plop it on without having to readjust it. One vent clip magnet did the trick and steadily held my iPhone 7 Plus. But then without thinking, I purchased and installed a “Love Handle”. It’s basically an eslastic loop used to hold my phone for one hand typing, and is attached via a 2.5”x1” inch plastic adhesive piece. I installed it in the center, vertically just over an inch down from the Apple logo so it comes down to about half an inch from the bottom. Needless to say, the added a 2.5” long and 1” wide uneven surface disrupted the force between the magnetic plates in my case and the vent clip magnet. BUT! I remembered this came with two vent magnets so I attached one on the far left of my vent and the other on the far right which created a gap of just over 1 inch. Now, my Love Handle fits comfortably in this gap and the magnets hold onto my phone perfectly. My phone has NEVER fallen off the mount, which is impressive consindering how large and heavy my phone is, especially with the case. I’ve included pictures of my setup in the event you can’t picture it (my car is due for a cleaning). The magnets are so strong that I still can position my phone horizontally without issues, even with the uneven surface created by the Love Handle. The best part? There is no wear and tear since I’ve NEVER had to reinstall these vent magnets so the rubber hasn’t worn or stretched at all. As you can tell, I love this car mount and highly recommend it to anyone looking to buy one! Read more

I recently purchased the 2-Pack WixGear Air Vent Magnetic Car Mount, and I’m thrilled with how convenient and effective it is! The simple design makes it so much easier to use compared to other car mounts I’ve tried. The sturdy rubber base and powerful magnetic head provide a secure hold on my smartphone, even during bumpy rides. The mount is easy to attach to my car’s air vent, and it feels well-constructed. Despite the vibrations from driving or hitting potholes, my phone stays in place with no slipping or adjusting needed. I love that I can swivel the phone to whatever angle I need without worrying about the mount shifting. It stays put, keeping my phone stable and always in view. The magnetic hold is strong and dependable, and it works with any smartphone. It even blends in well with my phone’s design, so it doesn’t look bulky or out of place. The fact that it comes in a 2-pack is an added bonus—I can use one for my car and the other for my partner’s. Overall, this is one of the best phone mounts I’ve used. It’s reliable, easy to install, and makes accessing my phone while driving much safer and more convenient. Highly recommend! Read more
