Review on πŸ“± Nite Ize Metal Steelie Magnetic Phone Socket - Additional Magnet for Enhanced Steelie Phone Mounting Systems by Benjamin Robinson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Car Accessories are a Game Changer

We've used Niteize FreeMount mounts for our iPhones in the car before, but to be honest they've worn out over time. (The internal gears had so many cycles before they just fell out). Eventually I just got tired of buying replacements for them and when I saw this solution as an alternative to Revain I decided to give it a try. Boy am I glad I took the plunge! So much easier and there's nothing left to break. I will say that on my iPhone 12 mini it was difficult to find a place for a metal plate where I can still charge my phone wirelessly. However, I don't care because 95% of the time I was using my cable anyway. My husband has a larger iPhone X and I was able to find a spot where he could charge it wirelessly with no issues. So be aware that if you have a smaller form factor phone and need wireless charging, this might not be for you. If you have one of the larger phones, however, you shouldn't have any problems. All in all, me and my husband really like this mounting solution and we have upgraded all of our car mounts to it. It's stable even off-road, which none of our previous car mounts could.
