Excellent mount

I’m extremely happy with this mount. Was in search of a new one to go with my new phone and MagSafe case. I was actually worried how strong it may be, but I couldn’t be happier!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy to Use, Makes Driving Safer

This mount rocks! Easy to set up, the phone snaps into it easily and the swivel is well-balanced - it's easy to move, yet offers some firm resistance. I love that it charges while showing me the way to where I'm going. Would be great if the charger were more powerful, however; another gas station charger powers my phone up like lightning in comparison.

Fantastic and elegant car Mount.

This replaced a wonky old phone holder in our trusty old 2005 Subaru. It was easy to install, is very sleek and works perfectly to both hold and charge our phones. It is quite an upgrade over the old style holders we have used in the past. Thank you Peak Design for another great product.

Great mount for small places

I purchased this mount for my Toyota tundra, which has few non-textured, flat places to place such an addition to the dash. Once I found the perfect location and followed directions on how to stick it to a surface I’ve been happy with the product ever since. There is nothing to fiddle with, just put your phone on it, and the magnets do the work. I’m an outdoorsman and travel on many unapproved roads, so we will see how well it sticks overtime.

Best Car Mount I’ve tried
on December 7, 2023

I still have an old car that doesn’t have car play so wanted a new car mount that was reliable, quick and easy - this car mount is exactly that. Even though I’ve only had it for a few weeks I can tell the adhesive isn’t just going to fall off anytime soon (helps that they give clear instructions to make sure the adhesive is strong). With MagSafe it is super easy to just throw my iPhone on and it stays on with ease, regardless of the bumps on the road, I don’t have to worry about my phone possible dropping off from the mount. Also, with it being able to wireless charge via the mount is amazing. You can tell they have thought through everything with this product - absolutely love it and would recommend to anyone now!

Magnet isn't strong enough for a stick shift
on December 11, 2023
Posted by: Champagne&Gasoline
from San Francisco
I am beyond obsessed with my Peak Design case and have the mounts for both of my motorcycles and my bicycle, and was super excited to add the car mount to the stable. It's very minimal and sleek, which is great because so many of them are hideous monstrosities. Unfortunately though, the magnet just isn't strong enough, and my phone gets knocked off it pretty regularly. I have a 6-speed manual M6, and the console/dash space means there wasn't a great place to mount it that is well out of the way of the stick. Inevitably the phone gets bumped when shifting and that's usually enough to disengage it from the mount and have the phone end up at my feet. I'm sure if you don't have a stick shift you would have more places to mount it as well as less likelihood of bumping it while driving and it would be awesome for you. Can't say enough good things about the case and the bike & motorcycle mounts that lock into the phone case, and the sleekness of this design is so good. Just needs a locking option!

Good quality but limited usability and movement
on December 11, 2023

The positive: very nice magnetic mount - feels safe, fast and strong
The negative: the short length of the arm between the ball and the dash plate severely limits the placement: it only works if you have an almost vertical space where you can attach the mount to the dash. If you car dash is tilted (or even almost horizontal, like in my case) then the phone will be facing the roof of the car, not you.
There is also the limitation of the available place to connect this mount; both because car designers have not left spaces for this and because the phone will most likely cover another instrument, screen or something if you do find a place to stick the mount.
So carefully check your car before selecting this model.

Since I appreciate the Peak Design mount system, I decided to return this car mount and purchase the ball mount. This allows me to add a longer arm between the dash mount and the phone, thus increasing flexibility in finding an available place to stick it to. The positive: a much more flexible solution. The negative: relevantly increasing the price of the overall car mounting solution by having to purchase the other needed parts from RAM mounts.
