Convenient to use in my car

I got my car mount two months ago and I found it very convenient to use while I'm driving at the same time using my phone for GPS locations and hand-free calling. Great product!
As an avid 4x4 Overlander, keeping my phone from falling yet having the ability to quickly grab my phone to get a photo was imperative to my setup….this is perfect!
I would hop into the car, but never found right spot for phone. I would put phone on car dash shelf, drive around a corner, not speeding mind you, and phone would fly across car, or end up under seat or down side of seat or wherever! There would always be that annoying charger cord getting tangled and in the way and usually ends up broken. But now….hop in car, easily place phone on holder - it stays there no matter how many potholes I drive over and…..the best part…..it charges on holder! The cord is concealed with little clips so no more annoying cords in the way. Absolutely love it! And because it is a permanent fixture, it counts as handsfree.
strong bond and lots of angles I can put my phone at - the phone is attached well and I know it won't fall off. My mistake was to stick the mount on to a place that had too much curve. the adhesive didn't hang on. Fortunately, there was extra adhesive and the new location works much better. Love my mount and the phone case!!!
The build of this is amazing. However it "would only work" with the 12v adapter. Due to the design of my truck it didn't work for me. I have 3 USB and 2 USB C ports in my truck and none of them would work for the charger to have a steady amount of juice to charge my iPhone 13 pro when using the peak design MagSafe case. Overall I wish it would have worked.
My wife and I put these mounts in our cars, and they are amazing. They were easy to install (once we got weather above 60!) and have been perfect going on 4 months now. The phones in their Peak cases go on and off easily, but stay in place perfectly. Using them is like magic.
I've tried several car mounts, and this is the best one I've discovered so far. As someone who does a decent amount of offroad driving, I need a mount that will not cause my phone to fall down or shake violently while I drive, and Peak Design's Car Mount fits that bill.
My only two critiques are that it was a small pain to get the mount to stick to the specific spot that I wanted in my car. In addition, the articulation of the mount is not as much as I initially expected. Besides that, the mount is compatible with my PD case and even when I don't have the case on. Would recommend!
