Review on πŸš— Incipio Moto Mods Vehicle Dock Mount System MT-404-BLK-V for Verizon and Motorola Moto Z - Black by Troy Hamilton

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Solid mount, some issues

I have had a Moro Z2 Force for many years, one of the most reliable phones I have ever owned. I have a lot of moto mods and at one of my last jobs I had to use maps for commercial photo locations. I decided I needed a mount for my car and lo and behold, Incipio designed it specifically for the Moro Z! I should have. When it arrived and I installed it I couldn't be happier with its durability. I have used suction cups before and they are not that permanent. They usually don't hold up well after a hot day. leave a residue. etc. This attaches directly to the air conditioner vents and can be easily rotated. It doesn't fall on sharp turns, just a strong mount around. Unfortunately, it's far from perfect for me. The Moto Z uses turbo capabilities, so I've already bought a turbocharged car adapter for my Incipio car mount. to buy. I was dismayed to learn that the Incipio mount does not support turbocharging. If I wanted to take advantage of the turbo charge, I had to plug the phone directly in each time instead of using the charging port on the mount. -1 Another question from StarMy is more software than device functionality. When you connect your device to the incipio mount, your phone will automatically launch the "Android Auto" app. While Android Auto provides a more streamlined experience for using your device while driving, it prevented me from using my device for work-related tasks. I had to quit Android Auto every time, causing severe lag on my phone. I'm pretty sure they could have made the mod attachment that causes Android Auto to open automatically optional in the mod's settings. While it's not their fault Android Auto isn't a great program, it still might not open when you plug in your device. At least make it optional to use the Android Auto app. -1 star. Those two specific things aside, it's an amazing mount and could be bought again even with those minor hurdles.
