TechMatte MagGrip Air Vent Magnetic Universal Car Mount

Top Pro

Cheap

For around $10 this is probably one of the cheapest mounts out there. See More

Top Con

Blocks 1 of the car's air vents

If you're using the AC on a hot day it could be annoying. Using the heat on a cold day does the same and can also heat up your phone, depending how hot you set your heat to. See More

Yonatan's Experience

I've had these for about 6 months now, I bought it because I didn't own a car but rented cars pretty often and this mount is very portable, you just push the mount into the air vent and you're done. Removing it is as easy, just pull it out. The magnet works great and is pretty strong. I now own a car that has deep vents (Mazda CX-5) so the phone's magnet doesn't attach perfectly onto the mount and half of it is not really touching but it still holds my phone perfectly and it never fell. It's cheap, really easy to install and you can get more magnets for other people that may drive the car so that's very convenient. I highly recommend it! See More

Top Pro

Universal

It works as long as you attach the magnet to your phone which could be just putting it between your phone and its case. See More

Top Con

Requires a magnet unit for each phone

Each phone that needs to be mounted needs to have a magnet unit. If you don't use the adhesive to attach it to the phone then you can transfer the magnet between phones but that could be annoying. On the other hand, you can get more magnets and it's pretty cheap. See More

Top Pro

Powerful magnet

The magnet is powerful enough to hold your phone even if the 2 magnets are not 100% aligned and touching. See More

Top Pro

Portable

It's really easy to install and uninstall the mount. Just push into vent to install and pull out of vent to remove. See More

Very strong mount

The mount is both suction and sticky based, which combined keeps a very good grip on the dashboard. See More

Top Pro

Fits any smartphone with a spring powered grip

The gripper is spring powered meaning it can stretch to fit a large variety of phone sizes, whether it's an iPhone or Galaxy Note. The spring is very powerful and holds your phone in place so it won't fall out. See More
