Miracase Phone Holders for Your Car with Newest Metal Hook Clip, Air Vent Cell Phone Car Mount, Universal Automobile Cradle Fit for iPhone Android and All Smartphones, Dark Black

I purchased this phone holder for traveling. I wanted something small enough to pack in my backpack and use when renting cars. What I found is the stability of the phone holder is 100% dependent on how sturdy the car vents are. My first rental this holder worked flawlessly. It held position and is easy to install and remove the phone. Another rental had flimsy vents and it made it difficult for the holder to stay in place. I have been using it for about a month in 4 different vehicles and if you have sturdy vents, this holder works great. It is easy to install, holds position well and compact enough to take with you if needed. Quality seems good and works as intended. Downside is it does restrict some access to the controls under the vent area. Not a deal breaker for me. All in all, I recommend it.

I like this phone holder a lot. I needed something that has a wide and tall grip and won't let go of the phone. This holder was very easy to install with an adjustable metal hook that attaches to the back of a vent blade. Once attached tightly it will not let go. It grips very strongly with the base tightened against at least 3 blades which forms a very stable base. The .8" tall side grips were just what I needed since my phone with its protective case and other items is about .7" thick. My phone and case is also about 3.5" wide, so the 4.2 " opening works fine. Once the phone is placed in holder just push the grips toward the phone tightly. I was able to locate it perfectly between my car power button and center display so I can still see everything clearly. I love its location. Its very easy to reach and I don't need to take my eyes off the road. With an easy to install ball above the hook adjustment knob, it just pops into the back of the holder and then you can tighten it to your preference.It has a universal 360 deg swivel around and can swivel about 60. deg. backwards and forwards. Just push an easy to get to button on the back and the grips open slow and smoothly.The holder does not really block the vent that much since it is held about 3" above the vent. I still feel a lot of air coming from that vent. I really don't have any other place to mount a phone holder without interfering with something and I don't like mounting on the windshield or dashtop. This holder will not block any view through the windshield. It was only $11 and seems really well built and holds the phone stably without any real vibrations. I am not worried about the phone falling out of the holder.

It's easy to connect to your car and has a nice release mechanism. However, the cellphone doesn't attach securely to it—it’s always a bit loose. While the phone doesn’t fall, it does shake a little. Overall, it's a decent product, just not perfect.
