Much better than I expected!

I love everything about this phone holder. I'm very impressed with how durable this thing is. I've probably had a dozen different phone holders, and each one was flimsy, looked like cheap plastic, and eventually fell apart. This one, on the other hand, is rock solid and feels like metal and hard rubber. The way it is designed is also excellent. The "grips" that go around both sides of the phone wrap around the edge of the phone to really hold the phone and not just "squeeze" it between the foam. Even if you let the grips loose slightly, the phone is held in the "grooves" of the grips so it won't fall out as long as it's held upright. Once you secure your phone in this mount, you will not be able to take your phone out of the mount even if you try. You'll understand what I mean when I say that sometimes you can just "feel" the difference between cheap and quality. You will feel the quality as soon as you take this holder out of the box. The on/off switch is not very practical, at least for me. I connected the charger through the fuse block so it turns on and off with the key. The on-off switch is difficult to use due to the waterproof coating, but I just leave it on and use the bike key to have it turn off when the key is in the off position and turn on when the key is in. Position "ACC" (accessory) or "ON". I have mounted this mount on a Yamaha Venture 1300 handlebar and I have absolutely no worries about the mount rotating on the handlebars or my phone ever falling (or dumping or bouncing) on a freeway or a bumpy country road. I also like the fact that I can plug in my headphones (or FM transmitter) and charger (at the same time) while it's in the holder without the holder getting in the way. The quick charge function works as it should. I have the USB charger version so I can charge other devices that don't have wireless charging capability. If you're trying to choose a holder for your bike, I really hope you choose this one. Revain can sometimes be crappy with fake reviews and cheap products but I am very happy with this purchase. It's better than I expected and it's better than any holder I've ever had (including car holders). This is a really good holder. This holder would be worth the money even if it was just a holder without a charger.
