Review on ๐Ÿš— Improved Ringke Power Clip Magnetic Car Mount Holder - Premium Air Vent Cradle with 360ยฐ Rotation and Long Reach Neck - Universal Smartphone Automobile Mounts by Dusty Oner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great in SOME vehicles.

What I would change is the wing lock. The tabs make it difficult to attach the clip in cars where the vents are "built" into the dash rather than flush, or I can't rotate it because the space on either side of the louver adjustment is too small to fit Being able to rotate the vent will force you to place the mount higher on the vent, causing the vent to tilt down under the phone's weight. Works fine in my car. My blinds aren't that loose, the vents are wide and flush with the dash. It just doesn't work on other machines where I use several different cars for work. I can't use it on a machine at all because the blinds are so thin the clip doesn't even close tight enough. On the other car I have to put a folded piece of paper under the wing of the lock to support it so it doesn't lower the blinds. I've tried lowering it a notch but then I can't turn the lock as it hits the bottom of the vent/top of the dash and there's no room to move it in any direction. It's not bad and if I can place it in the right spot it keeps my phone out of the vents so my phone doesn't overheat which I really need it for so 5 stars for that. But only 4 due to a lack of understanding and foresight of the various vent/dash designs making this mount almost impossible or impossible to use.
