Review on 🚲 Roam Universal Bike Phone Mount - Motorcycle & Bike Handlebars, Adjustable - Green - Fits iPhones, Samsung Galaxy and more - Holds Phones Up to 3.5" Wide by Ranjit Ghosh

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not suitable for phones with a volume button in the middle

I have a Nexus 6P phone and a fairly standard bike. Even with all three rubber strips included, I couldn't get the diameter small enough to fit my handlebars. I was able to attach it to the handlebar post and I actually like that location even more, but I was expecting it to fit on the handlebar itself. If you need something to attach to your handlebar tube, this may not be for you. And here's the really bad news. If you have a phone with volume buttons on the side towards the middle, you will find it difficult to use the vise and not press the buttons. On my Nexus6P it actually grabbed the power button and restarted my phone before I knew what was going on. I was able to turn the phone upside down and avoid the buttons, but it stretches much further on one side of the silicone mesh than the other and doesn't feel balanced. I'll give it another day but I think I'll send this one back. If it didn't have a clamp, I think it would work very well.
