GAME CHANGER (Just buy it!)

I've owned several car mounts in the past, but they each had their own problems (magnet not strong enough, difficult to mount/unmount with one hand, cumbersome to adjust angles, etc.). This car mount, however, solved ALL of those problems, and also fixed issues I didn't know I had. The magnet is strong and my phone sticks to it with confidence. The arm separates the mount from the vent just enough, allowing its arm to freely rotate. The locking system firmly grips the vent and does not rattle. The mount also pivots, allowing you to control the angle at which the phone is mounted. And this can all be done using one hand. It's also built like a tank. Absolute game-changer. Worth every penny.
This car mount has exceeded my expectations in all respects. It is very high quality and robustly made and provides an absolutely secure hold for all our iPhones. Peakdesign has delivered an absolutely recommendable piece of technology here. Keep up the good work!
Maybe that was an exaggeration. But it is, hands down, the best phone car mount I’ve ever purchased. So convenient. So sturdy. 10/10 would buy again and again.
I bought this specifically for our international trip, as were renting a car and needed the familiarity of our phone for GPS. It’s a solid piece, like most PD products, machined at a high degree of quality. Feels bullet proof. Easily fit the vent of the Peugeot we rented and served its purpose well. I looked at cheaper options, but at the end of the day, invested in PD due to the track record.
Most vent mounts suck. Can't handle the weight of these bigger heavier phones. Plus they tend to block the vent itself making the vent unavailable, except a cool or heat your phone.
With the secondary anchor point of this vent mount, it won't move. Plus the swivel pad to put your phone on. Moves it out of the way of the vent so you can use the vent and your phone at the same time. Loved it so much. I bought two.
