Why Your Car Phone Mount Matters
A good car phone mount keeps your eyes on the road and your phone visible for navigation. With so many types available, it can be hard to choose. This guide covers the four main types of car phone holders and helps you find the best one for your vehicle and smartphone.
Types of Car Phone Holders
1. Air Vent Phone Mounts
Air vent mounts clip onto your car's air vents and are the most popular option thanks to their easy installation and removal. Our Universal Car Air Vent Phone Mount features an auto-locking clip and 360° rotation — and at $14.99, it's one of the best value options available.
Best for: Most drivers. Easy to install, remove, and reposition.
2. Magnetic Car Phone Holders
Magnetic mounts use a strong magnet to hold your phone — just stick a metal plate to the back of your phone or case and it snaps into place. Our Magnetic Dashboard Phone Mount is a fan favourite at just $8.99.
Best for: Drivers who frequently get in and out of the car and want one-handed mounting.
3. Windshield & Dashboard Suction Mounts
Suction cup mounts attach to your windshield or dashboard for a sturdy, adjustable hold. Our 360° Windshield & Dashboard Mount works with all major smartphones and offers maximum flexibility in positioning.
Best for: Drivers who want their phone in their direct line of sight.
4. Rearview Mirror Phone Holders
Mirror mounts clip onto your rearview mirror — keeping your phone high and central without obstructing your view. Our 360° Rotating Rearview Mirror Phone Holder provides a stable grip for navigation at $10.99.
Best for: Drivers who prefer their phone above the dashboard, or those without suitable air vents.
