Cup Phone Holder for Car [Upgraded Adjustable Gooseneck & Firmly Stable] Car Phone Mount Cell Phone Automobile Cradles for iPhone 16and All 4-7 inches Smartphone(Black)

I was skeptical. I have a Nissan Sentra and the cup holders are probably 3 inches or so, wide . I adjusted the goose- neck first so as not to put stress on the rest of it while adjusting. It positions easily. I placed the base in the cup holder and tightened it and it's very secure. Just tightened it little by little for the best fit and less chance of damage. I didn't have to torque down on it. It snugged right up. They also provide three pads to add to the expanding base, I think to make it tighter if necessary. Mine was tight I saved them but didn't use them. Next, I placed the phone holder onto the end of the goose neck. It's a little tricky and took more than a few seconds to attach it right. I don't drive over bumpy roads so on regular freeways and parking lots it is very sturdy and doesn't wobble or fall. I've got a MOTO phone that's 3 1/4" wide and 6 " tall. It easily fit snugly, the padded ratcheted jaws open and close smoothly horizontally and vertically. The bottom piece extends if necessary. I pulled it all the way down to fit my phone. The jaws hold firmly. The only time it failed was when I accidentally slapped it reaching for the gear shift. It knocked the holder off, but the phone stayed in the jaws which was good. I snapped it back on and readjusted the neck, so it wasn’t in the way and it’s done exactly what I wanted it to do. I admit I am price conscious and looked at all the phone cup holder types. This looked the most reliable, less expensive and in theory not much if any difference. I am very happy.

I have a Samsung 9 Plus with a thick Otterbox case. I searched everwhere to find a car cup phone holder that would have deep enough clasps to hold my phone with the case. The other attribute I wanted was a tall gooseneck that would allow me to position the phone as high as possible to be able to more easily glance at google maps when driving. This fit the bill perfectly! It fits the cup holder securely with a simple twist, the gooseneck is flexible but sturdy, and the adjustable clasps are the right size to secure my XL phone. In a sea of junky products it's great to find something that seems to be designed with real situations in mind, not just a product that sounds good but "almost" works. Sincere thanks for solving my problem at a reasonable price!! I will share a tip if someone runs into the same situation I had... when I tried to slide the phone holder into the gooseneck, I could not get it to go no matter how hard I pushed. I was ready to return it thinking I just purchased another piece of low quality junk from the internet when I thought of one thing to try before I gave up. I put the tiniest bit of hand cream on each of the four plastic hooks and tried again. They slid into the notches with ease! Very secure! Update: Well, I"ve only had it for about a month and the top part fell out of the gooseneck when I tried to slide my phone out. I realized two of the plastic prongs / hooks have snapped off! So, in the end it's just another piece of junk from the internet! Very disappointed!

This phone holder is for my Samsung Galaxy S-7 Edge. While the phone holder is very well made, the most important factor to consider is the type of cup-holder configuration on your car or truck. My car, a 2008 Buick Lacrosse CXL sedan, has the "moveable" separator device on the car's cup-holder configuration. Basically, the "moveable" separator has been designed by Buick to retract forward, or rearward, which would then allow for a larger cup or thermos. A good Buick design, but the "moveable" separator cannot be disassembled from the car. The result: Using the new Upgraded Car Cup Holder Mount properly requires a placement of a sturdy glass or cup within one of the car's console cup spots. I know, sounds confusing. Still, the new piece works great!

I had an expensive RAM suction cup mounted phone holder but it kept falling off the window, especially in the summer when the window is hot. This was dangerous because when the phone and holder dropped on the floor, the charging cord pulled out of it and dropped onto the base of the steering wheel and got trapped there. I couldn't safely retrieve it while driving. If I turned the steering wheel, it then got wrapped up in the base. One time I almost couldn't get it out of the base. I have to charge my phone while driving as it's old and the only way to route the cord to the phone was above the steering wheel to the side window where I had to put the phone to avoid interfering with my car's Eyesight system on the windshield. I'm explaining all this to show that I was rather desperate for a better, safer solution. The dash and air vent mount products didn't seem like they would work well in my car. Then I found this solution, that goes in the cup holder. While I don't like giving up a cup holder, I need to safely mount my phone in the car to use the navigation on it. This screwed in very securely to the cup holder and was easy to screw. The only difficulty with installation was I couldn't get the phone holder piece to securely snap onto the gooseneck. It kept sliding off and I couldn't figure out how to make it "click". My husband finally got that figured out. Once it was securely snapped on, the holder works great. When the phone is mounted, it does wobble some since it's on a gooseneck, but that doesn't interfere with usage. And being in a cupholder at the center of the car puts my phone close to the charging port, so I don't have to route the cable very far. I also really like how easy it is to put the phone in and out of the holder, much easier than my RAM mount and more secure. The RAM mount had an X-configuration of arms with rubber tips and the rubber tips kept working their way off the arms, causing the phone to pop out of it, even when I glued the tips. My only concern is whether this product will last, since it feels rather cheap. But it's not terribly expensive so I can always replace it if it breaks. I am very happy with this product and would recommend it to anyone. Just make sure to measure your cupholder so you know it will fit properly.
