Review on πŸ“± Optimized Panavise PortaGrip Phone Holder with Windshield Mount by Tony Wilson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Use it on your daily commute paired with the Waze GPS app and it stays in place like a rock.

Especially since I use the Waze GPS app every day on my long commute to work, this Panavise has become an indispensable tool. It adheres to the windshield without leaving an unsightly ring when removed. The suction is done with a slight twist of the mount and it just stays in place like a rock. (I live in the perpetually warm Southeast, but I should note that on cold days in winter this affects traction as the windshield is cold. Might be a factor if you live in cold areas. If so, your course might be pointing up windshield to heat it up first before attaching the holder.) There are several connection points that can be loosened with a slight twist to get the right angle and position, and then tightened again to get things on to keep in place. Is there anything I don't like about it? In fact, the release button for opening the side "hands" to release the phone from the vise is on the underdog's left side (when facing you) and is a bit awkward to press due to its position. But not enough to lower the rating. My last PortaGrip was lost when my car was stolen but the replacement holder was one of the first things I ordered with the new car. Very satisfied and highly recommended.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old
