The only magnetic kit that really works. Don't cheap out on other magnets. Do yourself the favor and pay for the quality.

This thing does exactly what I wanted in a car mount... complication-free, unobtrusive, inconspicuous, rugged (there's no moving parts, so there's nothing to break), and quiet. You barely notice the silver ball on the dashboard, meaning, it doesn't "stick out" visually. If you're not looking for it, you may not notice it at all. The magnet is strong, but not insanely strong (and there's been *no indication of it negatively affecting the phone in any way). Attaching the phone to and removing it from the ball is instantaneous, doesn't require two hands, or any fiddling to adjust it. It sits still, no slumping or shifting when traveling over bumps in the road and so forth. I thought having the magnet permanently stuck to the back of my (i)phone case might be an issue with slipping in and out of my pocket. It is *not an issue. The magnet is very low profile and doesn't get hung up in any pocket it's been in. I stuck the magnet in the dead center of the case, which means when I lay it on the table, it balances on the magnet, which means I can't really touch the screen without it rocking back and forth. This isn't really a big deal because it extremely rare that I'm trying to use my phone in this manner, like a tablet or something. If I had to do it again (and I will), I'd experiment with placing the magnet just a tad higher than center so that, when the phone is lying on the table, the bottom edge is flat on the table and the top is resting on the magnet. If you do this, just be careful not to go too far away from center or your phone won't sit right and may be more apt to move when it's attached to the ball and you touch the screen for various reasons. The adhesive seems to be very strong. There's no indication of it weakening and doesn't seems like it could pull away very easily. I've recommended this product to all my friends and family already.

Not only was my Mercedes lacking in cup holders or storage space but the fact that I couldn't find a decent place to put my phone while driving was making me go crazy. I had tried numerous solutions. MISSION=Find a functional phone mount that looked as close to factory as possible. ATTEMPT #1: I purchased a phone holder that stuck to the dash via 3M tape that kept getting knocked off because it took up so much space. It was like an arm protruding from my dash that just wanted to poke me at the least optimal time. It was an eye sore. STATUS=FAIL ATTEMPT #2: I purchased a smaller phone holder that plugged into the cigarette lighter. This worked ok but was still bulky and didn't have the factory look I was aiming for. STATUS=FAIL ATTEMPT #3: This ones laughable. I decided to try a dash mat after seeing how well they worked in a friends boat. Excited, I found the perfect sport just under my radio. I tore the package open, "stuck" it to my dash and watched in disappointment as it slide down my dash like under-cooked spaghetti. My fiance found this humorous. I began trying to get it to stick anywhere and eventually resorted to tossing it against my dash like spaghetti against a refrigerator. No luck. It wouldn't stick to anything. STATUS=BIG FAIL (VENT CLIPS-I decided to forgo this option because I think they are the dumbest idea ever. I'm all set with sticking my phone in front of a heater. Phones aren't suppose to get hot.) ATTEMPT #4=I accidentally came across the Steelie Car Mount and was intrigued by its size. It was the most expensive phone mount I've come across thus far but also appeared to be the most promising after reading all the reviews. I had to buy it. Aside from the magnetic ring that looks rather out of place on my phone, this thing is awesome. I mounted it in my car in the same spot that the dash mat was suppose to go, between the stereo and heater controls. It's very functional and looks great. It's definitely worth every penny. The only improvement I would like to see, is a decrease in the size of the phone magnetic mount or at least offered in other colors so it's less noticeable on. STATUS=MISSION COMPLETE ----------------------UPDATE----------------------------------------------- I've had this for a couple months now and still love it. One thing I never thought of when purchasing this was, will it interfere with my wireless charger? I tested this out and it will work but I wouldn't recommend it. The magnet gets ridiculously hot, so hot you can't touch it which could be a potential fire hazard. I, also, travel a lot and one night I had my phone in my pocket along with my hotel room key. When I returned to the hotel my key wouldn't work. The magnet on the phone wiped the data on the room key.

I love the concept of this mount. It has held up so well and I have moved it to the new car after purchase and moved the magnet to a new case after getting one. here are my pros and cons however: Pros: Holds VERY WELL!! Moves and piviots when you want... makes it easy for passengers to view phone at will Looks really cool and it's so simple to use I had zero issue with instillation even after moving it to the new car and the new case. I put it on a soft back Otterbox and had no issues! Removes easily with dental floss. Buy new stickys and you're back in business The magnet on the back of your phone is nice for putting phone on fridge when following recipes... or your metal cubical wall at work. :) Never had a problem with magnet and phone function. Everything works fine Cons: That magnet on the phone WILL KILL YOUR CREDIT CARDS!!! This happened to me 4 times... and twice I was out of the country. This realllly sucked! The magnet on the phone is bulky... and ugly. I just got a custom phone case for xmas and I really don't want to ruin the photo with this ugly magnet. I'm looking for alternatives now that will work with my Steelie mount. I have discovered that you can get metal plates that fit UNDER you case. There is a company that makes an adaptor for the ball mount. I'm going to try this out... if it doesn't work I'll just put the disc on my new case. The convenience of this mount far surpasses the vanity of a phone case for me.

No need to purchase any other phone mount. This is by far is the best dashboard phone mount that I have ever purchased. The magnet is so powerful and the phone never slips off. The magnetic ball easily mounts to the car dash and can be placed is any location. The magnet holds so well, you can easily turn the phone in any direction at any time. The small magnet that is placed on the back of your phone is super strong too. When in the house, I often put my phone on my refrigerator so I can easily find my phone. I have purchased so many phone mounts but this one is the best ever and I will never try any other brand. This will be my perfect trading gift at Christmas.

This dash kit is small and simple. I like the low profile and slick design. Small magnet but very powerful.

First of all, I have the Galaxy Note 3. I keep it in a hard case. You have to permanently attach a somewhat small magnet (the size of a quarter and thickness of about 3 quarters) to the case (or battery cover??? not me!) and permanently attach a little ball magnet to your car. Everything is made of extremely high quality materials so no complaints there! So what are the cons? Well, if the magnet on the phone is not perfectly centered, the phone will tilt to the side of the phone that's heavier. With a large phone such as the Note, (or a small tablet) this is an unavoidable problem. Next, when you plug in a charging cable or auxiliary cable, the phone sags in the direction of the cable. Next I noticed that the magnet completely screws up my GPS. I bought this so I could mount my phone to my dash and use google maps but that's a no go, because the GPS works fine without the magnet, but jumps around (and I mean JUMPS AROUND) with the magnet in place. Next, since my Note 3 has a digitizer under the screen and uses the Samsung "S Pen", the magnet screws up the sensitivity of the S Pen. I have to take my hard case off every time I want to use the pen. Very inconvenient, and I find myself avoiding the use of the pen because the case is not super easy to take off. Why did I buy the Note 3 if I'm not going to use the S Pen!?!?! Other than that, it works as you would expect. It mounts the phone to the dash just like the picture shows. It's up to you if the Pros outway the Cons. You basically can mount the phone and and use bluetooth to stream music or handsfree calling, but GPS and Note users may as well pass this up ;)

Magnet slips on the metal sphere. High price and Useless.

Pros: Everything! This is the best car mount I've ever owned! I bought one, then after showing my wife and sister they both had to have one as well. They work great and take up very little space in the truck/car. The piece that sticks to my phone does not bother me either, it does not protrude very much at all (about 4mm). I have not noticed any issues with the phone due to the magnet being attached. Cons: The only concern I have is with the one I bought for my sister, we tried to mount it on a more textured surface on her car's dash board, it did not stick properly, and fell off. The adhesive would not stick to anything else after that. I don't know if this is because the adhesive came like that, or if it was because we tried to stick it on a textured dash board. Because of this I had to buy more adhesive tape. I did not want to buy online since it was way too expensive for replacement pads, so I read a bit online and found out that 3M Scotch 4011 exterior mounting tape is basically the same thing. I bought a roll for $4.99 (Home depot), and used it to stick the ball to another spot in my sisters car (a smoother area). It worked like a charm, and I have used the tape around the home as well so it wasn't a waste.

Super praktische Lösung für eine Handy Halterung! Habe das Ding zusammen mit einem Hardcase für das Sony Xperia T in meinem Audi A6 und es funktioniert! Sehr platzschonende und unauffällige Lösung. Die Kleber der beiden Teile halten bis jetzt sehr gut. und die Montage ist auch einfach. Ich kann es empfehlen!

Es la tercera vez que compro este producto, la primera vez fue cuando nadie lo conocía, importado de EE.UU., a través del fabricante directamente y pagué casi 100 dolares con envío y aduanas, hace ya 7 u 8 años, una maravilla. Luego lo compré hará unos 4 años para nuestro segundo coche, debido a lo contento que estaba con su funcionamiento, en eBay, también a EE.UU. Y esta vez lo he comprado en Amazon, las otras veces no estaba a la venta por este medio, supongo que solo se vendía en EE.UU., para tenerlo de repuesto, ya que algún día se estropeará (aunque es difícil debido a su sencillez) o si cambiamos de coche y olvido sacarlo... por lo que sea, pero para tener uno de reemplazo. Es sencillo a más no poder, pegas un disco con un iman de gran potencia en la parte posterior de tu móvil o de una funda para tu movil (lo recomendable) y a su vez pegas el soporte (que es una simple bola de acero de unos 30mm de diámetro) en el salpicadero, lo único que tienes que hacer a partir de entonces para poner el movil en el soporte es acercarlo a unos 2cm y el imán hace el resto o bien tirar de él con firmeza (no hace falta excesiva fuerza) para sacarlo. Mi recomendación, ten una funda para tu móvil del día a día, la que llevas siempre, y compra una funda a parte en la que pegar el imán, ya que sobresale unos 5-6mm de la funda y no es cómodo, esta última la guardas en la guantera del coche o donde te vaya mejor, pero en el coche, y cuando lo necesites usar como GPS o para lo que te haga falta, cambias una funda por la otra y lo colocas en el soporte, cómodo, rápido y simple. La única pega es el hecho de que el imán sobresalga por la parte posterior, pero si lo ha comprado tres veces digo yo que muy incómodo no debe ser, además, no es ningún armatoste como otros, ni es difícil de montar ni supone una inversión elevada, así que lo recomiendo al 100%

Ca fait bientôt 4 mois que je l'utilise et le support est nickel! Le telephone tient très bien et l'aimant est vraiment classe dans la voiture! Petit conseil pour ceux qui hésitent parce qu'il y a un support a ajouter sur le telephone, ayant une coque, je l'ai mis sur la coque et la laisse dans la voiture sur le support directement. Bref, un produit classe, super resistant et très pratique!
