Sturdy but doesn't work.

I had one of the old model airplanes and it worked great so I decided to try this one. It appears to be well made and seems durable. I've only had it for a couple of weeks and so far the suction cup is holding onto the dashboard pretty well. Now for the bad. It will not charge through the Otterbox Defender case. Not a big deal, so I put on Apple's thinner silicone case. This will charge it, but only for about 5 minutes. This ends the loading time. I've tried setting up the phone and making sure

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Almost never

Just Buy - Accessories

At the time of release, the iPhone 5S had an original Kenu vent mount. I gifted it to my sister and bought the Plus when I got my iPhone 6 Plus. I now have a Mi Mix 2S that supports 10W wireless charging. I looked at other wireless car chargers but wanted a mechanism similar to Kenu's. Randomly looked for a Kenu wireless car charger and randomly found this one. I can't get enough of this charger. Went in place of my previous Plus model, holds my phone perfectly and charges with no issues. The…

Works well but has some caveats

Pros: Very comfortable, durable when properly attached; cozy; The best phone holder I've ever used. Cons: Tends to detach from the dashboard at times (you can easily detach the suction cup and then reattach it; the phone can get a little warm while charging; my main con: the phone can't be rotated from portrait to landscape mode without that Cable to pull Charger plate and the port you plug the cable into are together, so when you want to rotate the phone from portrait to landscape it pulls on…

Pros
  • Builds confidence
Cons
  • I'll add later

Pull out 12v plug included

Dash mount is as expected considering it's a ball mount. The air vent side holds up well, the pad rotates easily but stays firmly in place when you leave it on. The Qi range is good, it transmits power even through a thick hard shell. A USB-C connector (latest type) and a 1 m cable are included. The real downside is the included 12V cigarette lighter plug. I haven't found a way to take it apart to cut the spring. Basically this part is useless. You'll probably need to buy a different lighter…

Pros
  • That's great
Cons
  • Quick start guide

I have an iPhone X and bought this product for my car. The product came quickly after ordering. It came in a nice box with great photos and detailed information on how to use the product. It also came with printed instructions, but figuring out how to attach it to the vent was easy. Very convenient! Ventilation clip with push button ensures secure attachment to the ventilation grille. It also has 360 degree swivel and rotation functionality so you can tilt or rotate the mount so the phone can…

Pros
  • Best in class
Cons
  • Only available in black

Limited tilt/angle, poor suction

So the item works as advertised. There are a couple of big issues though: 1. The locking mechanism causes my Pixel phone to compress, which is very annoying but somewhat unavoidable unless it's a magnetic mount2. the articulation of the head from the base is quite limited. It will move a few degrees in each direction, but I couldn't find a single spot to place my base that wasn't in a very awkward position3. The charging pad is really specific. They almost never align the panel correctly…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Nothing

Great mount but wireless charger gets hotter than other wireless chargers

I was looking for a new wireless charger and mount to replace my old vented wireless charger. I found this on Wirecutter's recommendation and although it's more expensive I thought it was a solid product. Pro: The assembly features of this product work great. It's solid on the lightly textured DashCon and why I'm returning this product: I use multiple wireless chargers throughout the day and none of them heat up my phone significantly. With this mount, my phone gets so hot that the screen dims…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Newer model could have been chosen

High quality cell phone holder with wireless charging

I have been using this product for about a week after switching from a dedicated Garmin navigator to my cell phone. The first impression was very positive. Appears to be of very high quality materials, fit and finish including cable and dual port charging connector. I install this on the car dashboard air vents. There is a compression clip that opens when pressed and clamps the bleed rod when released. I found the attachment to be above average, very reliable for everyday use. Much better than…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Secret

Don't skimp on a cheap charger.

When it comes to wireless chargers, you really have to make sure they are of good quality, otherwise they transfer too much heat to the battery and shorten its lifespan. This is a good quality charger. I haven't tested it in summer yet, but it doesn't heat up my phone much at all. On my Galaxy S7 at 80% brightness, Google GPS and Bluetooth audio is actually a net drop of 1% every 30 seconds. Protocol. At 50% brightness, it increases by 1% every 30 minutes. Without GPS, the phone will charge…

  • Ugly packaging
