Great design but gets way too hot while charging
on August 16, 2024
Posted by: Levi
Great car mount with an elegant minimalist design that everyone comes to expect from Peak Design. But with one fundamental flaw. The mount and my phone get very hot while charging. To the point where my phone literally overheats and shuts down functionality like maps navigation. I have a Pixel 4XL with the universal adapter. Maybe this combination is responsible, maybe not. So on longer drives I have to unplug the mount and plug into my phone. Which essentially makes the charging feature useless for me.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Brilliant and so unobtrusive

Got the the non powered Car Mount recently and followed the 24hr install time - PD says it needs 24hrs for the adhesive to cure so took their works for it.
Its adhesive is holding very strong on the top of the dash in my 2020 Skoda Kodiaq - even with the slight texture.
Holds my 15 Pro Max in the Everyday Case incredibly well. Love it!

Simple and secure

I have been using my car mount for over 6 months and I have no complaints with it. My phone attaches super easily to the mount and I don’t have to worry about it falling off. The adhesive that attaches the mount to the car is super strong, it holds up well even in the extreme heat. I would definitely recommend this mount.

TOTAL OVERHEATING
on September 3, 2024
Posted by: JG
I have the Qi2 and it always overheats so much that the iphone stops working, the car mount burns with heat and also has no heat dissipation design so the iphone system slows down so much that it stops working temporarily until it cools down by taking it out of there, and I have done many car trips and using the GPS google maps (offline maps) and it is always the same.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not great at charging
on September 10, 2024

I think this is probably an issue of sunlight on a dash and the heat generated by wireless charging but on a summer day, my phone doesn't get more than a handful of percent after sitting on this for an hour drive. I think the phone/charger limit the charging because of the heat. Super clean design, the wire clips aren't very permanent, solid.

The best Mobile phone vent magnet!

I purchased the vent mount phone charger and love it! Not a rapid charge, but keeps the phone steady and visible. Bought the non charging for my wife as her holder would let the phones drop.
These are the best and strongest in my experience.

Great secure mounting slow charging
on September 7, 2022

I purchased the wireless charging car mount. I have had this for about a month and the mounting is secure. I use this in conjunction with the Peak Design case for the Pixel 6 Pro. The charging is slow/non-existent. On a 3hr drive it drained battery lower then where I started with the drive. This was while not using any navigation or music on the phone. I've tried using the USB ports in my truck, a wall outlet and it's still the same effect. Checked all setting on my my phone but it just doesn't suffice to charge. Using the same case with my Pixel Stand charges just fine just seems to be issue with the wireless car charger from Peak Design

Strong magnet with a slim profile, but…
on February 18, 2022
Posted by: Mike

I got this as part of a kickstarter release, like the sucker for Peak Design stuff I am- bought of the products they’ve launched this way- this one hasn’t been all that great, I Love the slim profile and the strong magnets. However the adhesion process is tricky. I cleaned the surface and used a small c-clamp to hold it in place for 24hrs over the weekend, the mount has fallen off twice :^( I understand the reason for the curvature on the base, however on my case it might be to strong and it’s detaching form the center of the base.
