A valuable purchase, some advantages!

Thanks to this holder, I realized what a good device is: I used to buy Chinese ones and they broke in a month or two, simply unable to withstand the weight of the phone. Since I carry it in a case, it was extremely difficult to find a suitable holder. In the end, I decided to spend money . and did not regret it. Now I really understand why it is better to overpay once again and not regret anything. The mount passed all the tests, including on a rough road at high speed and did not fall off. At…

Pros
  • Holds the latest iPhone tightly
Cons
  • Not found

Don't waste money.

I bought two or maybe three of these things. I loved this product until each eventually broke in the middle and there seemed to be no way to glue or fix it. I used one of these for at least a year and a half before it fell apart too. I don't post pictures because they would be superfluous. Just check out the posts of other unsatisfied customers if you want to see how mine turned out in the end. Such a disappointment!

Pros
  • Makes you happy
Cons
  • Good, but not very good

Cup holder mount fell apart after a week

I love the look and size of this mount, unfortunately after about a week of use I went back to my car to find it sitting in the sun and the screw mechanism came loose from the underside the mount I suspect because expansion due to heat was forcing it but for something that should be in the car all the time it should be able to handle it by sending it back and ordering a replacement which I have hope it lasts. The replacement broke exactly the same , clearly quality issues, only this time it…

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

PHONE HOLDER.NOT! on Accessories

I originally gave this product three (3) stars up until this morning. This crap didn't last a month. See photos. I'm so pissed off because, as a Lyft rider, I've been looking for a handy but well-built mount that doesn't hang out of my window. Now I have to get the one hanging on the window. And like MinneMan said, I wasn't DAMAGE about it either. If you just rotate the base, how can you make sure it fits on the cup holder? For $30, Belkin has apparently lowered their standards, so I plan on…

Pros
  • Permanent Test Results
Cons
  • Disappearance

Basically ready to use. One of the "tabs" that expand to secure the holder in the cup holder fell off when I first lifted the holder. I tried putting it in a cup holder to see how it would look and the other two tabs fell out too! This is one of the 'cleanest' cup holder mounts - I hate the ones that look like they're made out of a kit or have a silly flexible plastic grip that looks like a catwalk mic. But why release a product that breaks the first time you use it!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • Large and bulky

to compensate for the stupid taper of the base

The angled shape of the base poses a problem: the cup holder holes in cars are not angled! They are just cylindrical! I had to wrap strips of that mesh material used to open cans, with more strips at the bottom than at the top to compensate for the silly taper of the base. It stays in place, but only because I used this mesh pad to ensure it fits properly in the car's cup holder. I like spring loaded phone grips. And it has a nice, clean, aesthetically pleasing look. it doesn't rise very high…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Empty

A simple solution to salvaging a $30 holder that breaks.

Like the others, this phone holder was great. Better than any other I've tried. Until it broke in the heat of my truck. i wasn't happy I thought it was an accident so I returned it and got another one. Unfortunately it also broke. I tried gluing it and it worked for a day. I looked for another better holder but they were all worse. I finally found a fix that got my broken one working! The downside is that the plastic on the bottom is too flimsy. And the screw below is too short. So I bought a…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Some flaws

I love this article - Car Accessories

This is an overview of the cup holder. i love this shop He has a few reservations. I made sure it stays in place where it doesn't move when I plug and unplug the phone, but this can be difficult/irritating at first. Also, I live in Houston where the summer heat causes adhesive to ooze out of the back and leaves a sticky trail on the back of my phone case every time I use it. I'll try to clean it up to see if it works, but I'm lazy and don't want to do stuff like that. Update: Still like it…

  • Excellent Design

Cup holder Elegant design

This review relates to the cup holder attachment. It is very attractive and looks good in more expensive cars. It's well done. It's a bit short, I had to lift it to the top of the cup holder (there's an inch of air underneath), but the expandable design holds up great and is very solid. He's holding the phone well. Here are a few caveats: - It's not easy to hold the phone with one hand, you really need both hands to release the spring-loaded grips. The phone is easy to detach with one hand…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • I have no negative feelings, everything is fine

Nice design but stopped working after 5 months!

Belkin Car Cup Holder Smartphone Holder - Black I purchased a Belkin car cup holder on December 16, 2016 and in the second half of April 2017 it stopped working! Has the ribbed hinged top of the cup holder stopped rotating the device's side panels (which attach the device to the inside of your car's cup holder) and instead started flipping open the opening of the device? I have no idea how the ribbed platter came loose from the base but I was unable to reattach the platter to its base and…

Pros
  • Enjoy
Cons
  • No Work
