Great design!
I bought this to hold my IPhone 16 Pro Max in my 2023 Ford Explorer.This basic phone holder works well and is cheap. I’ve used other products that wouldn’t hold the weight of larger devices, but this holds the phone well. It offers an easy way to adjust to fit different size of devices.Overall, I found this cheap solution to be more effective than its more expensive competitors.

Fantastic product!
Works well with an Android Motorola stylusThis product holds your phone tight and snug, with plenty of space for your phone to charge while in the stand. The main base has a bevle joystick ancher. You loosen the nut to set the phone position, then you tighten it to lock into place. The arms are spring loaded release. Squeeze together to close. Press the easy access release button on the back of the bas to release the phone. The base attached to your heater vent, and the anker allows you to use both vertical and horizontal vents with easy repositioning. Its design comes with a lever locking “kick stand” that tightens the clip to the vent. The kickstand causes the clip to grip and lock tight into the vent, so if you hit a bump, turns a tight curve, or go over rough tracks, this product will hold firm and not fall. An easy to install, easy to adjust, and easy to use product!

Great budget phone holder!
Budget phone holder that fits a variety of air vents. Adjusts for different width phones. Does a good job holding even larger phones steady enough to display map apps. Rear button releases spring-loaded jaws when you need to take your phone with you. Comes with detailed instructions. Can hold phone horizontally on smooth roads, but heavier phones will fall out on bumpy roads.

Way better than expected! Bought 3 more!!!
For the price, I expected this to be pretty cheap and not work very well. It came in a little later than originally indicated. However, once it arrived I was surprised by the quality! It connected easy to my car vent and I can just sit my phone in it and squeeze the sides together. It stays put, even when needing to slam on breaks! I love that the bottom is cut out so I can even charge my phone while it is sitting in this stand!

Just what I wanted, until…
Simple to put together, install, and use.There is one point in the instructions that could have been clearer (they don’t really show that you need to *push* the ball into the main body until it clicks) (if you don’t, the ball won’t fit and will seem to slide out of the assembly), but it only took me a minute to figure that out.Sturdy, fits well (please note that that are two different tightness settings on the clamp that attaches to your vent, so one will probably work better than the other, depending on the thickness of your louvers), rotates readily to horizontal or vertical. Clamps on the side hold the phone in place with a gentle push; an easily accessible button on the back pops it open to release the phone. Can’t beat it, especially for the price.Edited to add: I changed my rating from five stars to three. Most of the things above are true, but: It was great the first several months but then, after only using it for 6(?) months, once or twice a week, it suddenly started coming loose and falling off the louvers. It doesn’t unclamp, it simply comes loose from the louver and hangs down or falls off. Not very convenient when you’re driving. I can open the clamp, put it back on the louver, and tighten it again, and it’s good for a week or so, then it happens again. Considering I only use it a few times a week, for me that makes it very unreliable. Will replace it with something else ASAP.

Bulky, inconvenient, and not at all durable
I bought this to replace a similar phone holder (not Amazon brand) that I let someone borrow and never got back. The one I originally bought is no longer sold, so I bought this one because it was the closest product I could find to what I’d had before. This one is terrible in comparison! The form factor is super bulky, which is very inconvenient in my car because there’s not much space between the vents and the steering wheel. You have to reach around the back of the phone holder to release your phone from its grasp, which is particularly inconvenient because it’s so bulky. The mechanism by which it clamps to the vent is not actually adjustable, it just toggles between a couple different options for the width of the clamp’s opening, and after less than a month and a half of use the clamp stopped properly closing on the smaller width option. In fact, after less than a month and a half of use, several parts of this phone holder gave out and it would not hold my phone steady while I drove. I don’t recommend this product!

Truly universal fit for any phone large or small. Easy one button release. Nice locking mechanism has two settings for slimmer or wider vents. Ball mount means endless viewing angles are possible. It does remain stable when locked onto vent but my vent has flex so does move slightly up/down, but thats no fault of the mount. Its better than other vent mounts that are just friction fit, however be careful as you can potentially break flimsy vents. Its best to have the bottom rest on the dash to prevent excess stress on vent. Its easy to remove and move between vehicles, nothing permanent or glued. One of the best mounts period, highly recommended.
