Review on ๐Ÿ“ฑ Arkon Seat Rail or Floor Car Truck Mount with Gooseneck for Samsung Galaxy Devices by James Dominick

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great design, poor materials

I love the design of this Arkon mount. It does exactly what I want. Also, the flexible gooseneck and floor mount feel pretty solid. Unfortunately, the strength of a chain depends on its weakest link, and this attachment has a very weak point. I had just finished installing and started to rotate the phone clip slightly to a different position when the clip came completely free. I have not coerced, abused, or used the mount in any way. It just broke because that part of the mount is made out of pretty flimsy plastic. Arkon, I would happily pay twice (maybe even triple) the price for an all-metal version of this mount. I hope you build such a mount in the future! In the meantime I have requested an exchange. I'll handle the mount as carefully as possible and see what happens.

Pros
  • Slim Grip Ultra fits smartphones and tablets up to 6.75 inches in height
