Smart Forfour/Fortwo Phone Holder, Smart 453 Phone Holder in Car Radio Mount Car Holder Stand (Black)

Product Information

High-end accessory designer Mous produces a range of premium phone cases and stands, engineered to protect your device without compromising on aesthetics.

The black plastic accessory is another one that's vent-mounted, thereby leaving your windshield free from obstruction. Similarly, the version with a suction cup works particularly well, which is always reassuring if you’re the owner of a highly prized and rather large smartphone.Nevertheless, top marks should go to the Vicseed Car Phone Mount for its neat ball-joint, which allows you to move your phone screen into a prime position and keep it there. The telescopic arm on the one we tried was fab too, with an additional pivot capability that delivers plenty of scope for viewing your phone screen no matter where you’ve got it mounted.

The other benefit of the powerful magnet setup is that it’s able to handle heavier phones without any fuss. Even clunkier are mounts that have a ball and socket attachment: you’ll need to stick a metal socket to the back of your phone case, which clips into a ball on the in-car mount. There are a lot of ways to secure a phone to a mount, but the most convenient makes use of very strong magnets. Keep your phone fully charged as you drive with the Scosche Wireless Charging Vent Mount, which fits neatly into your air vent and makes sure have full power when you need it, as well as 360 degree movement for seamless viewing at any angle. What’s really useful about this model is the gooseneck part of the design, which allows you the freedom to position your phone just where you want it.

In addition to dash- and window-mounted phone holders, some are actually built right into power banks. The best car phone holders are designed to hold your device securely for safe screen viewing while driving.

Not so with the TechMatte edition as it attaches to a variety of dashboard vents without fuss or, indeed, leaving marks, scratches or scuffs in the process. Our favourite budget option is the MPOW grip pro 2, which balances build quality and function in a cheap but hard-wearing package. This little device may not look like much, but it can even hold your tablet and is said to stay put even when driving on uneven terrain. However, those with a standard smartphone can expect this mount to provide a great deal of flexibility with minimal effort.A good phone mount is an essential accessory for any vehicle that doesn't include a built-in navigation system. This sleek option from Kenu is just the ticket, with 10W Qi wireless charging built in, saving you from having to mess around with unsightly cables.
