Hold tight! Tablet accessories

This is a secure mount. Has withstood some abuse while traversing the East Coast to West Coast trails. I've been really testing this device for the past few months. Easy installation, ease of use and versatility. I use a Samsung 8" tablet and it holds up great! Recommend this stylus for use in your car.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Protection

This is a great stone mount! I'm so glad I spent a few bucks more and bought this one.

That's a great mount! I'm so glad I spent a few bucks more and bought this one. It fits perfectly on my 8" Samsung Tab A or my 8" ASUS tablet with protective case. Versatile design that goes with almost anything in this size range. I use it as a chart plotter on my boat.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • I will add later

Works perfectly. Best accessory for tablets

To mount my tablet on my boat's center console. Perfect for any size tablet except my large iPad Pro which doesn't quite fit. Holds up flawlessly even in crazy stormy seas. RAM makes great products. Worth the price if you need something that just works.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • No mold required

Holds my 7 inch tablet great

Bought this for my old LG tablet to control my truck while driving. The suction on the windshield works great and keeps the tablet right where I put it. Even on bumpy or washboard slopes, the mount didn't move. I deducted a star because the release levers don't always work together, sometimes only one side comes out.

Pros
  • Good price
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

Not strong enough to hold a tablet

I have been using RAM mounts for phones for years and have been very happy with them. Unfortunately, it's just their smartphone holder with a tablet-sized mount attached to it. The suction cup cannot bear the extra weight of the mount and tablet. unit, she fell off the windshield three times during a 5-mile drive.

Pros
  • Constructed from marine grade powder coated aluminum, stainless steel components and high strength composite for durability and reliability in the harshest environments
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
