Lots of pumps for car accessories

I don't think it lives up to the name or the hype. The hand amplifies every thrust I hit, vibrating back and forth. It vibrated so much from side to side on the freeway that my phone flipped the screen vertically instead of horizontally. Also, it's almost impossible to install the X-Grip on my Galaxy S9 without pressing the buttons. I tried placing it off-center, but found that the X-grips (instead of the ball/socket) could rotate when the phone was there, so hitting the bumps made the phoneโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Speed

Just buy this item.

Waste your time and money on just one of these villains. There's a good reason they cost a little more than most on the market. I've had many, many poorly made mounts that lost suction, stopped adhering, or just sucked. The RAM mounts are damn strong, suck like the Kraken itself, and will hold any size phone with any case, even phones with pop sockets. Easy to use and you can even open and close it with one hand. Your phone will just fall on the floorboards. I can't say enough about how muchโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Rugged design
Cons
  • Poorly thought out

Great product with one flaw.

I've been using RAM MOUNTS for years. The best phone holder on the market. The only criticism is that the suction cup mount needs to be reworked a bit. (1) The suction cup itself does not hold well. It doesn't take a major blow to break a seal on a windshield or mounting plate and your phones will fall off. (2) The screw holes on the suction cup mount will eventually shed the weight of the phone and connectors and loosen the screws. Which causes him to fail in the end. I've had 3 of them overโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

If you want to buy a mount, always take RAM

Ram mounts are not in the lead for nothing. I use this mount universally in all my cars. It has strong suction that won't damage my bike's paintwork. It withstands road vibrations and daily driving on the country roads I live on. Outside the motorcycle, it is used in the corner of the windshield for long journeys. The X security as well as the rubber clasp do a great job of keeping the phone where it needs to be. Like the RAM company, the bracket can speak for itself. Those who know come withโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Super for a small house
Cons
  • A few little things

I think I've finally found the RIGHT ONE for me!

I had problems with several car phone holders that didn't fit. This is the first window holder I have tried with a suction cup and I am very pleased with the form and function of this holder. I was a little hesitant to spend $50 on a phone holder. I don't usually pay too much attention to my expenses, but there are things I'd rather not spend a lot of money on and this was one of them. I'm glad I bought this one. It's extremely durable and I have no doubt this thing will last me several phonesโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Only available in white

Costs money! - Kickstand

For years I drove my car without having a place in my car where my phone should have been. It's been in the cup holder, in my lap, on the passenger seat, and other cheaper mounts. . . this is annoying for various reasons. As I am constantly traveling to unfamiliar cities for work, I often use GPS. The failure of all previous solutions means I spend too much time looking away from the road for directions. This thing is amazing. Its design allows you to place it anywhere in the car - at anyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in black only

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 optimalโ€ฆ

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product
