Best magnetic phone holders

What to look for when choosing a car phone holder?

When choosing a car holder for a smartphone, you need to pay attention to the following points:

• The assembly must be solid and the materials must be of good quality.
  Examine the device carefully for cracks or poorly fitted joints, or chips at the corners.
• In terms of its dimensions, the device should be as compact as possible.
  If you choose a large model, it will cover the control panel and interfere with the car's driving in every possible way.
  And this, you understand, is fraught with serious problems in the future.
• When choosing the size, take into account the parameters of mobile devices that you are used to carrying with you (tablets, cell phones, navigators).
• In choosing a design, a person is completely independent.
  Whether the device will be combined with the interior of the car or will become a kind of accent - you decide.

Holder types

The reliability of fixation is another important point and I would like to say a little about it.

Important! If the device is not securely attached, one day it will fly off along with the phone. There is a risk not only to break the cell phone itself, but also, getting nervous, to get into an accident.

There are several mounting options:

1. The suction cup is the most common, "classic" option.
   Allows you to fix the gadget in any convenient place on the windshield or control panel by adjusting the angle of inclination.
   Over time, the suction cup loses its sticky properties.
2. Mounting in a CD slot, i.e. into the receiving slot of the player.
   It is held by the attraction of magnets or in a fixing frame.
   Space, of course, is saved, but you can only scroll the installed disc.
3. Magnets of any shape: square, round, rectangular.
   Pros: ease of installation, easy operation, you can install it anywhere on the control panel.
   Cons: on a bumpy road, where it shakes a lot, gadgets from such stands often fly off.
4. Handlebar holder - attached either with a silicone strap or a rubber strap.
   Such mounts are inexpensive, strong enough and easily adjustable.
   But in a situation requiring an emergency response - for example, an accident - they interfere with the hands when changing the grip.
   It also obstructs the view of the control panel.
5. Many drivers use an air duct grill.
   This is a practical solution because the phone is always at hand, and does not interfere with driving.
   But in winter, when hot air is blowing from the grill, the phone may overheat.

Best Magnetic Car Phone Holders

This section contains the holders that are attached to the air duct grille. The fixing principle is quite simple - the mounts are simply inserted into the lattice using a special clothespin leg and are adjusted to a certain angle of inclination. Such models are reliable, and most importantly, they do not block the view through the windshield.

Car holders with other types of mounts

There are other types of holders as well. There are also successful models among them.

What to look for when choosing a holder?

A phone holder is an accessory that securely holds the device in the desired location for easy access. When choosing it, you need to pay attention to the following points:

• Quality. The material must be durable, and the assembly must be of different quality.
• Convenience. The device should not interfere with the operation of the machine, cover devices or hinder the movement of the driver.
• Reliability of fastening. It is necessary that the accessory ensures that the gadget is securely fixed.
• Correspondence of sizes. The dimensions must match the dimensions of the gadget.

The design of the accessory is selected at the discretion of the owner of the car.

What is the difference between tablet and smartphone holders?

The tablet in the car is usually used as an assistant for the driver or for the entertainment of passengers.

If the tablet is used by the driver, then it is placed on the glass, installed in a CD-player or on an air duct. In the first case, the gadget can limit the view of the road, and in the second, close the multimedia system.

The passenger tablet is usually attached to the front seat headrest. There are models that are installed between the headrests using clothespins.

The magnetic method of attaching tablets does not differ from the similar device for smartphones. It works with two magnets - on the gadget and on the holder.

There are accessories that allow you to rotate the tablet 360 degrees, another convenient option is the cable holder.

Conclusion

The position of the phone in the car holder is one of the most important criteria for ease of use while driving:

• When attaching the phone to a magnet, you can choose any position that suits you.
  However, if a weak magnet is installed in the holder, then the phone, fixed in a horizontal position and with strong vibration, can rotate.
• When the phone is fastened in the paws, the device assumes a stationary position, which does not allow the phone itself to be rotated.
  But in some models of holders, the manufacturers have provided for the adjustment of the design of the entire holder, which allows you to turn the phone to a position convenient for you.
