Review on πŸ“± RAM Mounts X-Grip Large Phone Mount with Twist-Lock Suction Cup Base RAM-B-166-UN10U + Medium Arm for Vehicle Windshield - Enhanced SEO by Jordan Weakland

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The suction cup is the weakest link on this model.

This mount holds my Pixel 3a securely enough for in car use but I would never consider using it on a motorcycle tank as I have seen some people - you will lose it and that it's that it holds up well at lower speeds, especially on a Harley. In my car, the suction cup falls off the windshield whenever the temperature fluctuates too much, or every few days, whichever comes first. I've had other mounts that only fell off a few times a year at most, and one that used mild adhesive to ensure it stayed in place, so it actually took some effort to get it off, even after a few years. That being said, it's great to hold the phone right where I want it to be the least visually obstructing. The hand itself is strong. I might consider getting a few extra pieces to increase the length of the arm, but I'd like to find a better suction cup to mount the rest on. Hand spread is fine for the Pixel 3a - again for in-car use. , I would recommend a bike that is one size smaller to provide a firmer grip.

Pros
  • Includes RAM Twist-Lock suction cup base, ideal for vehicle and mid-length windshields, double RAM mount size B; Ball joint technology allows for almost unlimited adjustment
Cons
