Kensington Universal Windscreen and Vent Car Mount-Black-for All Smartphones, Including iPhones, Android, Windows Phones (K39217EU)

This sturdy little device is hard to fault. It's a tad more expensive than some of its competitors, but once the package is open the quality and simplicity of its design are apparent straight away.DO read the (largely pictorial) instructions first! Unless your car's facia shelf is very narrow or you're mounting it fairly high up the screen, you may have to pre-shape the stem before fitting it. Be prepared to use strong fingers, as it's surprisingly rigid (that's a good quality once it's in place!).Once the suction pad is applied to a clean screen it sticks very securely and remains firm in all road conditions.The phone support element is much lighter, but no less well-made. The padded sliding clamps hold the phone firmly, without blocking access to either the power socket or the main side switches.Once you're familiar with the release button at the back, loading and unloading your phone is delightfully simple.Considering the length of the supporting stem, some oscillation becomes inevitable when driving on uneven roads, but this separation from the screen may actually serve to protect your phone from the full impact of the worst vibrations.My verdict: very well made and definitely worth the money.

This is, by far, the most solid and stable windscreen mount I've ever used or seen. The suction cup is incredible. Once attached, I won't fall off your windscreen.The sturdy but flexible arm is very long, so suits new cars with large dashboards well. Once you've bent the arm into position to suit your car, it won't move whilst driving.The mount itself is designed well and will hold most phones. Dare I say, any phone? It holds my iPhone 6 plus!I've bought 4 of these now. One for me, and 3 for friends and family who have liked it when they've seen it.It has served me well with my iPhone 3G, iPhone 4, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c and now my iPhone 6 plus.Please note, I am using the official Apple leather case on my 6 plus, and it just fits comfortably in the mount at it's widest setting. I fear that it wouldn't fit if I were using a bigger case.If you're looking for a good, sturdy windscreen mount that you don't have to replace every year, get this.

Updated:Had to buy a second because the clamp mechanism stop working. I had fiddled bit with it so probably my fault. Having said that, I now have two goosenecks and two vent mounts which is a bit wasteful. Shame you can't (or can you?) buy only the bits you need.Earlier I had said the air vent mount is excellent. Moderated my view a bit because in my car (at the time a Golf), after using it for a while found that the weight of the phone cause some vanes on vent to split so gave up on it. However it is adaptable it should fit any vent (unless the car designers have been particularly radical). Once fitted it can be removed (the 'legs' rotate to allow them to be unlatched). Sufficiently stable not to adversely impact driving apps that monitor your driving. If you do like a lot of hot air coming from the vents then perhaps the gooseneck is your best bet. Like others of its ilk, the suction cup requires a nice clean surface but once stuck is fairly rigid owing to the solid construction. Initially I only used the gooseneck briefly because I found the air vent more practical because it allowed use of shorter charging cable and left the space available for a dash cam should I want to use that. But because of damage to vent moved to gooseneck. Yes it does wobble a little in transit, but no-one stares too long at the phone - or shouldn't -when driving. If you arrange to have gooseneck resting on part of top of dash, at risk of marking dash, the wobble is minimised.If you have phone in protective case/wallet then it is a little more fiddly attaching/remove phone but does work.As an aside, I recommend https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07589CXLF as a useful aid to allowing the phone to be quickly attached to car power source (also need something like https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0794PNBBP). Using the magnetic coupling has the distinct advantage of being quick and reduces wear and tear on the phone connector. But keep away from sources of iron filings and the like!

I bought one 3 years ago and everything is great. Its been knocked from pillar too post and its still excellent. In 3 years I think its come off about 2 times. Suction is very very good and its not a typo.I am so happy that Kensington hasn't replaced profit before quality. Still an excellent product. Reason for the new one is a second car.

This mount sticks to the windscreen very well and holds my phone very well too, but the 'arm' part vibrates making it not particularly easy to read the display of my phone. I suspect a slight smaller 'arm' would lead to less vibration - the arm is longer than it appears in the product photo (~25cm from the suction cup to the back of the phone part). It's also made of cheap plastic - especially the phone holder part - but you can't expect much for £10 odd.

Very useful, easy to use and reliable. I started using the windscreen mount, but switched to the vent mount, since it doesn't obstruct visibility whilst driving. Both of them are very reliable and have never fallen while on the move. If you want to connect an auxiliary cable too (I have an iPhone 5S and no bluetooth in the car...), charging at the same time can be tricky, but is possible. I have a bulky shock-proof case and fits perfectly. would definitively recommend.

I really like this item. I use it with an Iphone and even though the phone is quite heavy, the mount is firm and very reliable. It's really good because it can be placed in different places, the cradle pivots for landscape and portrait modes. It includes both windshield and vent mount-use, it's flexible arms let you insert and remove the phone with one hand, very useful when driving! I really recommend this item. Price/quality ratio = excellent

Après avoir testé plusieurs engins du même type, celui-ci sort du lot : la ventouse tient de manière fiable et ne vous lâche pas en pleine route. Le système de sécurisation du téléphone est très bien conçu et maintient parfaitement le téléphone. Un bouton à l'arrière libère le téléphone de manière aisée. les matériaux sont de très bonne qualité. Le bras est très rigide et ne vibre pas pendant les trajets y compris lors de passage de ralentisseur ce qui, pour moi, est très bien. Offert à un ami qui regrette de ne pas l'avoir eu avant. Très bon matériel.

La ventose si è attaccata stabilmente al primo colpo (miracolo) e il braccio è estremamente stabile.Complice una posizione 'appoggiata' al cruscotto il cellulare rimane perfettamente immobile.

Genau das bekommt man. Der Schwanenhals laesst sich bis auf ca. 5cm durchmesser biegen (die Abbildung ist durchuas realistisch), dabei beliebig winden aber bleibt gegenueber Verdrehung stabil.Qualitaet ist fuer den Preis ausgezeichnet: der Saugfuss haelt fest an gekruemmter Scheibe - man muss natuerlich die Scheibe vorher Saubermachen. Die Handyhalterung ist auf jeden Fall mit allem Kompatibel, was derzeit als Smartphone (nicht Mini-tablett) durchgeht, insb. auch alle Generationen von iPhones. Die Füßchen unten (bei mir rechts an der Seite weil ich das Teil horizontal nutze) lassen sich verstellen so dass jede Form von Ladekabel passt.Die Polster sorgen dafuer, das nix verkratzt (iPhone 5 ohne schutzhuelle -> kein problem, keine Kratzer). Das phone laesst sich einhaendig einlegen und festdruecken (keine Sekunde). Die Arretierung kann man im prinzip auch einhaendig loesen, was bei mir nur an der dicht zur Scheibe hingebogenen Anordnung scheitert (kein Problem des Teils)Das Teil haelt auch nach jetzt 5 Monaten noch stabil. Beim Zurechtbiegen ist ein wenig Geschick gefragt, vorbiegen sollte man es bevor man den Saugnapf festklemmt, und man sollte nicht zu viel Kraft auf die Halteschale aufwenden, das ist nur Plastik. Der Schwanenhals laesst sich mit ein wenig Kraft in den Fingern recht gut zurechtbiegen. Er haelt dann aber auch diese Position, muss also nicht nachgebogen werden.Hinweis: Man darf von einer Halterung fuer unter 100 Euro keine Vibrationsentkopplung erwarten. Jeder der sowas verspricht ist ein Scharlatan. Beim iPhone 5 ist der Kamera-Stabilisator in der Lage die von diesem Arm uebertragenen Vibrationen fast komplett zu kompensieren. Andere Smartphones mit schlechterer Kamera duerften hier u.U mehr Probleme haben. Das ist aber bei *ALLEN* Konstruktionen der Fall, die keine aufwaendige mechanische Entkopplung mit Gegengewichten haben.Das ist Elementare Physik, da koennen auch noch so bunte Werbefloskeln nix dran aendern. Als feststehender Schwanenhals ohne Gelenke (die sich lockern koennen) verstaerkt es Vibrationen zumindest nicht all zu sehr.Den Preis auf jeden Fall wert. Die Lueftergrillhalterung passt uebrigens nur auf bestimmte Sorten Lueftergrille (z.B. nicht auf meine) - weil ich aber genau eine Saugnapfhalterung wollte gibts dafuer keinen Abzug.

Una vez fuera de la caja se aprecia buena calidad en el producto. El dispositivo además del soporte de ventosa para el parabrisas, trae otro soporte para el acople a la salida de ventilación, que va bien, pero que a penas he usado. Respecto al de ventosa, el brazo es bastante largo para que una vez acoplado en el parabrisas, el teléfono quede lo suficientemente cerca para ser accesible y visible sin dificultad, a la vez que facilita el uso del manos libres del mismo. El brazo es flexible y la base sobre la que va el teléfono gira, facilitando la orientación que se desee así como el usarlo en vertical u horizontal.El acoplamiento del teléfono sobre la base que trae el dispositivo, se realiza apretando los laterales de la misma (que vienen con partes acolchadas para mejor agarre y reducción de vibraciones) hasta que este quede sujeto. Para soltar el teléfono basta con pulsar un botón que hay en la parte trasera.Yo lo uso con un IPhone 4S y va fenomenal, permite la conexión a un cargador de coche (para mi imprescindible) y lo bueno es que si cambio de terminal, podré seguir usando el mismo soporte porque es polivalente en cuestión de modelos de teléfono.Estéticamente se ve bien una vez instalado en el coche, el funcionamiento es muy bueno, no se suelta y sujeta muy bien teléfono, que no se mueve si no quieres.Como pega sólo una cosa y es que depende de como lo pongas puede vibrar algo, yo lo soluciono con una colocación adecuada y soltando la palanca que va sobre la ventosa.Probado en varios viajes por diferentes tipos de carretera sin problema.Lo recomiendo totalmente.

Hatte die gleiche Halterung vor einigen Jahren gekauft, war vermutlich wegen Sonneneinstrahlung brüchig geworden. Hatte eine andere probiert, war damit aber unzufrieden. Diese Halterung ist besser verarbeitet und sehr stabil. Darum hab ich sie wieder gekauft. Bin sehr Zufrieden.
