ScoscheMAGDM MagicMount Magnetic Car Phone Mount for Dashboard, 360° Adjustable Magnet Head, Universal Cell Phone Holder for Car, Compatible with iPhone, Samsung, and All Devices

I finally decided to add a phone mount in my truck after avoiding them for many years. I got my first Scosche unit at a big box retailer. It worked like a charm for my iPhone 5S in a Ballistic case. I put the magnet inside the case without even sticking it using the tape. The mount attached to my dash easily and stayed there no problem with the double back tape pre-installed on the mount. Using this made driving much safer and kept my eyes up about dash level even when answering incoming calls or looking at the GPS. Later, I bought a second one here at Amazon for my iPhone 6+ in a Ballistic case. I did the same setup as before, bu I used the larger magnet provided inside the case because it's a heavier/larger phone. I had two problems that do not deter me from giving this a 5-star rating, but I want to share to help others out:1) While the Ballistic case for my iPhone 6+ is thin, it's not *as* thin as the one I had on my iPhone 5S so the magnet doesn't work as well. Big bumps or rutted dirt roads will shake the phone right off the mount and it will fall. The 6+ is heavier and larger so maybe that's the issue, but I think it's the case. I have considered putting the magnet on the outside of the case. That said, this system works like a charm and i do like the magnet vs. other systems I've seen2) The tape that holds the mount on the dash completely failed me when I tried to mount this to my van dash. The first one I purchased mounted perfectly on a very smooth surface in my Nissan Frontier, but in a Chevy cargo van, the slightly textured dash didn't hold the stickiness and it just fell off. I went out and bought some super-duty double back tape at Home Depot and that didn't work either. In the end, I need GPS for my business so I just peeled off all the residue on the mount and super-glued it to the dashboard of the van. Be aware that the tape provided will not stick effectively to a textured surface.Bottom line, the ease of just slapping the phone right up on the mount (sometimes without even having to look) and being able to grab it off with ease, makes for a super-great car mount. I don't plan to use anything else.

I needed a dash holder for my iphone that works with a pop socket. Sounds simple, right?I would be but my car doesn’t have a good surface to mount a phone holder and I didn’t want to obstruct my air vents with a vent mount.Then, I saw this! Thinking it could work for me, I purchased it.This piece was the perfect size that I could squeeze in between my air vents but angle down to not interfere with vent flow.Since it’s magnetic and I don’t have a magnetic pop socket case, I found on Amazon, of course, a thin magnet made to stick to the top of the pop socket. It’s the same size with no overlap so it’s a seamless look.Together with this dash mount, it’s amazing. I can angle the mount with my phone attached and it’s super sturdy. There’s no spinning, vibrations, or dropping my phone.It’s a magnetic bond is strong!The only thing I will say is that the adhesive that came with the product wasn’t very good. So I replaced it with a 3M double sided strip and voila!

Works so easily. Stays on window.

I bought the window unit and I really like it. I was looking for something that had JUST a suction cup without that awful sticky stuff. My last mount had the goop and any time I had to remove it from the windshield, it left a residue. And the more I moved the mount from car to car, and through changing temps (mostly heat) the sticky stuff just got nasty... So back to this product. This suction cup (without goop) holds nice and tight to the window without any indication that it will drop or lose suction. It's been on my car for the last couple of weeks now and still holding strong.As for the magnet, that part works great too. I love not having a claw or spring loaded contraption I have to use two hands to either mount or dismount my phone. Holds my LG G4 strong. I use mine primarily in portrait mode. If you prefer landscape, the weight of a charging cable COULD start turning the phone back upright - but I was able to counter this by making sure I was centered on the metal strip under my case, and by sliding it left a bit so there was more top-of-phone weight on the left to counter the pull of the cable on the right. Again, I don't know how much of an issue this is because I rarely use it that way anyway.The bad: It's noted that the metal plate you stick on your device will block wireless charging but info about blocking NFC Mobile Pay was inconclusive. I use Android Pay everywhere it's accepted, and to my dismay, the metal plate DOES BLOCK NFC ANDROID PAY functionality (at least on my LG G4). I'm using the larger rectangular strip rather than the smaller round one, so I can't comment on if the same goes with that but but I'd have to assume it will be the same.Only good thing for me is I'm using a very slim case that's easy to take off and on, so I stuck the strip to the inside of my case rather than to the back of my phone. Want to pay by phone? Just slip the phone out of it's case for a second. Not ideal but it's a trade off.This is second hand info - but my co-worker likes motorola phones and he told me his moto phones are already made of the right metal and will stick to magnetic mounts without the need for an add-on metal strip. Hopefully other manufacturers like LG, Sammy, Crapple... will start designing their phones with built in metal pads for magnetic mounts that will co-function with NFC if these types of mounts gain in popularity.Lastly - one of the other reviewers mentioned that it shakes - well it does a bit - but it's really not that bad. It's true, you probably wouldn't want to use this mount if your primary usage was going to be for black-box or first-person style video recording while driving. But for GPS, quick access to music... the shake is negligible. It was actually most annoying when it was sunny out, the screen was off, and I was seeing a shaking reflection of my own arm. You don't really notice it during screen-on operation. If you mount it in such a way so that the charging cable or even part of the phone is low enough to touch/rest on the dash, the shake is almost gone completely.The arm is EXTREMELY stiff. I can be bent into a custom angle/curve, but it is much firmer than I was expecting. Which probably helps cut down the shake to as low as it is.If I had to buy again - I would without delay.

Great product

This is the sturdiest one yet! I put the magnet on the back of my cell phone cover, and it still works with great magnetism! I was afraid I'd have to remove the cover to mount the magnet, but no! I actually just bought another one for the other car. This is a keeper!
