Review on πŸ“± RAM Mounts X-Grip Phone Mount RAP-B-166-UN7U | Twist-Lock Suction Cup Base & Medium Arm | Ideal for Vehicle Windshields by Julio Diaz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Super functional X-Grip tentacles with soft tips; Strong fixation with suction cup base on mounting surface

I have to say RAM makes great grips for devices! And it is this product of theirs that follows this very stellar pedigree :-). Note that this (and every) socket on the mount suction cup is better able to grip with that "vise" on the mounting surface - the "super smooth" that surface is. At the same time, such an ideal surface has sufficient intrinsic mass/weight to provide the "stable plane" required for any assembly. And so naturally/usually a material like glass provides such an optimal mounting surface. This explains why this phone/portable device mount works great on vehicle windshields. On the downside, we found such a surface difficult to navigate in a more homely/indoor setting, which might be enough even "on the go" to allow for flexibility of where everyone around the house could take our phones to use. And so this need for an ultra-smooth yet wearable surface was met by a specific product I found on https://amazon.com. Share this product page with others here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073NZZ378/ref=nav_timeline_asin?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1. As you can see, using this product with the RAM X-Grip phone mount is a real improvisation! And the name of the improvised product, Scott Barnes Cosmetics Glass Makeup Palette, speaks for itself and conveys the original purpose. Finally, I add a photo showing the two products used together in our household.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
