📱 Arkon RoadVise Phone Holder for iPhone 7, 6S, 6 Plus, iPhone 6, 5S, Galaxy S7, S6, Note 5 - Retail Black Review

I bought this phone holder to use with my DJI Mavic Air drone. The controller clips are too narrow to be used without removing the phone's protective case. This holder together with this plate is the perfect solution. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XJS7WPS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have had Arkon products (various phones) before and you can't go wrong. This is used on a 17mm bullet in my jeep to hold my phone while driving. Holds tight (requires two hands to insert/remove) without fear of phone falling out. Currently used with an iPhone8 in a case, but my wife's 8plus in a case also fits in the holder.

This replaced the gripping portion of my Rugged Ridge Jeep JK phone mount. This Arkon device offers excellent grip. The grips actually fold over to form a lip that holds the phone. My phone used to pop out of the original grip on rough trails, but now it won't slip out. The handle uses the same 7mm ball joint as the heavy-duty comb handle, so it just had to be replaced.

I've had at least 5 or 6 of these - 4 motorbikes and 2 bikes. I always had to glue the ball that goes into the socket where you tighten the plastic nut. No matter how I put it on, it spins too easily. The rest of the RoadVise - the part that holds the phone - is second to none. That's why I always have to deal with a weak socket. Too bad they didn't find a way to just permanently attach the 17mm ball to the rear instead of that socket, and that way it was able to attach to a RAM-like clip.

Update: Still works great and I love it. I just got a bigger phone, the Samsung Note 20 Ultra and just wanted to say that it holds it lightly while my normal size X-grips can't, I need a big X-grip. It's just slightly larger in body to fit in the X Grip, not the Arkon. Like others, I bought this to add to my Jeep Rugged Ridge dash with phone holder because the one that came with it didn't work with my phone. . This one is amazing and easily holds my Samsung S8+ in both the Otter Box and battery

The clip is very secure, I have really trouble pulling out my phone. I also got used to the previous design where there is a place behind where to hang the USB cable. And since I'm a courier, my phone has to be turned off every time I go to pick up a delivery. The only downside to the previous design was that the inner skeleton of the claws was too short. When the rubber finally broke, the phone popped out from time to time. If you could make that inner hard plastic longer or just rubber coated

I love that it holds my iPhone X in an OtterBox Defender case. I removed the sprocket because the nut holding it on the ball end is very difficult to tighten and the jaws are very difficult to stretch. If I try to open the jaws, I feel like I'm about to break the non-ball mounted stand (I use the Rugged Ridge Dash multipurpose storage system). It also weakens when the Jeep hits bumps and the phone is pointed down. Update: This holder is well made of metal, except for the ball socket that holds…

I don't usually write reviews, but wanted to add one factor that might help someone decide on this device. This phone holder works great with my Rugged Ridge phone mount, but what really makes me nervous about it is that it works with my PopSocket. I know they might seem silly to people who don't use them, but those of us who do know them are very cool. Typically, accessories like these rings and PopSockets require you to place the phone in the mount asymmetrically, or place the accessory on…
