Not for every car

Waste of money. Doesn't fit every car. The short arm is absolutely not practical. I cloud't fit it on my Ford ranger dashboard. Definitely don't recommend this product.
I have now owned this mount for 8 months, it was fantastic until the car was outside in temperatures over 70 degrees F. Once you hit this temp outside and let the car bake a bit the sticky part of the mount begins to degrade and then it won't hold your phone any longer.
Just be sure you are ready to invest in new 3M mounting stickers a few times a year if it gets warm in your neck of the woods.
We ordered two of these, one for my partner and one for me. They adhered easily and firmly to the dashboard of both vehicles, fitting in well with the aesthetics and delivering a quality functional experience. We have loved the easy-of-use and convenience, making it easy to keep track of our phones in the car and keep them charged. Highly recommend this product!
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.
I purchased this along with the Nomad case for my 15 Pro Max after seeing it highlighted in a youtube video. I was looking for something to replace the Scoshe magnet mount that I have used for years. I was a little worried that this wouldn't hold up to light off roading, but was immediately impressed at just how strongly this held my phone with the Nomad case on it. It looks great, works perfectly, and was simple to install.
If I could make one suggestion for a future version if it though, I would somehow give it the ability to rotate "arm" and lock it into any position. Or even maybe be able to swap the arm out for other arms of different lengths/angles. To me that would greatly increase the mounting options. For my 2018 Tacoma the only logical place to mount this was just to the left of the hazard light, and thankfully it worked perfectly there the way it is.
This is easy to fit, with just a small bit of flat surface and very simple to use. as it is magnetic, you can almost throw the phone at it and it sticks and with a car cable/adapter, charges while connected. Nifty!
