Rumcent Telescopic Tripod Gooseneck Floor Stand For Phone, Universal Smartphone Holder Mount,Easy Clamp For Phone

Product Information

Like many other models, this one works via a clamp system that can be adjusted to hold your phone in place, with the lens centred over the eyepiece. Telescopes with smartphone adapters included Pay special attention to whether a product name highlights its attachment type (vent, suction or adhesive) or how it grips the phone (magnetic or vice/clamp). ESR’s lightweight mount and charger is a top option for recent iPhones, giving you a Magsafe mount that fits with ease into a vent, then provides secure 18W wireless QI charging via a USB-C cable connected to your car’s USB outlet. The ball joint on the vent mount means it works with both horizontal and vertical vents, while a support arm holds the central square pad steady no matter how rough the road. ESR also sells a dashboard version, if you’d rather have it fitted there. If your car has a very flat, smooth interior surface then one of these adhesive attachments might work better, but the interiors of most cars aren't flat in the spots you might place a phone holder. A car phone holder is a must-have. Today’s smartphones can give you easy access to satnav features with up-to-date maps and traffic info, while also allowing you to play music and podcasts as you travel. With voice assistants, you can even use them to make calls or receive and send texts hands-free.

These two parts are made from plumbing fittings: a push-fit straight connector and a blanking plug for 40mm PVC pipe. This can mean it's worth spending a bit of money on a decent adaptor, as you'll need something sturdy that holds your phone well in place. This means that it is easy to attach and remove the whole unit without any fiddling about in the dark.One slight trade-off with the wide range of positioning options that come with the Exshow Car Mount is that the accessory can tend to throw a little bit of wobble into proceedings. However, if you spend a little time getting the positioning right this doesn't really detract from the overall appeal. Larger handsets up to six inches tend to fare better than slightly lighter models with less overall weight. But did you know some phone features are illegal when your phone isn't mounted securely in a holder, but are perfectly legal when it is? Some folks prefer to opt for the vent-mounted phone holder accessory. In which case there are many options at your disposal. One of the most impressive we’ve tried is the Kenu Airframe Pro, which in the tradition of car phone mounts goes for a ‘less is more’ approach on the design front. This is a positive however as there’s very little effort involved in getting the thing into position. Once it’s there, it’s going to stay there, no matter how bumpy the road gets – something that can’t always be said of some of the clamp-style holders. There’s also no maximum phone size to worry about – it will handle devices of up to 650g – and the joint means it works at a decent range of angles. As long as you’re happy with the metal plate on your phone or in its case, this is the best windscreen mount to go for. The adapter fits smartphones from 4.7 x 2.4 inches up to 8.3 x 4.7 inches, and its clamp is designed to fit eyepiece housings measuring between 1.2 - 2.2 inches.
