A soldier doesn’t just jam stuff in his pack and pockets, he has everything prepared and to hand before setting out, and so should you. Phone holders are just one of the items it pays to focus on properly, then you can get it sorted and forget about it because it will work well, instead of impeding vision or falling under the brake pedal at a critical moment. The holders come in all varieties, but mostly those that clip on to the air vents or suction-cup on to the screen or dashboard. The air vent kind are smaller and neater and won’t obscure vision, but they can be less adjustable.
It’s important if you’re using a suction cup type to ensure you aren’t restricting your view or your ability to reach controls. You can still get to the charging port with it in place and the ball and socket have a wide range of movement. You can mount this one-handed and the suction cup gets a very sticky gel pad so it won’t fall off. Equally, it makes it hard to remove and, given the quality of the competition, we’re not sure how the price is justified, even if it comes with a one-year warranty.
There is six-way adjustment in this system but that makes it bulky and tricky to set up right – and a bit item to store when not in use.
This simple, well-made device can be attached to the screen via a suction cup or to the dashboard via a plastic pad. The ball and socket allows lots of movement and the whole thing feels well made and well designed.
It’s True – A Magnetic Car Mount will NOT damage your Smartphone
From compasses to the incredible inventions of today, MRI body scanners, next-generation electric cars, even maglev floating trains and of course magnetic phone mounts, magnets have made our life more comfortable. As the expert from first4magnets, Matt Newby explained, why you might be concerned about magnets ruining your digital devices stems from an understanding of older electronic devices, such as CRT monitors (Cathode ray tube) and televisions, which were susceptible to magnetic fields.
However, he then goes on to explain that, “most modern electronics, like our smartphones, are not going to be adversely affected by small magnets”. Today, you will find a wide variety of different magnets used in many different situations, each one specifically designed for the task required—for example, the refrigerator and microwave oven. The typical type of magnets embedded in a smartphone mount is usually tiny, discrete and not capable of interfering with your device’s signal or data. To make you feel even more confident that magnets will not affect your smartphone, check out this video.
The components or apps will not be affected if you don’t use your phone near a strong magnetic field. When it comes to magnetic interference, the speaker, the screen, the GPS module, the inbuilt compass, and the phone’s cell signal are most likely to be affected.
As I previously mentioned, the only time that the speaker would only be affected is if you were making a call otherwise, it has no impact.
Back then, CRT monitors would generate a picture by shooting an extremely focused electrons beam at a phosphorous coated glass screen and bend the beam horizontally and vertically using magnetic fields.
However, large obstacles like mountains and buildings can affect weak GPS signals and cause them to error. Within milliseconds, your phone converts the sound of your voice hitting the microphone into a digital signal which is then transmitted as radio waves across the cellular network.
At the other end, the signal is converted back into sound by your friend’s phone and played out through the speaker without any noticeable lag. In brief, your phone signal is transmitted through a massive network of cell towers, and these kinds of radio waves are immune to minor magnetic fields. Check this article about the iPhone 4 Electronic Compass to understand part of the reason. (though once you reach a specific limit, adding steel thickness won’t improve your shielding much.)
It has the security and simplicity of magnetic mounting along with the ability to wirelessly fast charge your phone at the same time; automatically aligning itself, all of which I have covered in another article Here are 5 Reasons why you really need a Magnetic Car Mount for your Phone. The testing of the MagEZ Mount Qi proves that careful and clever engineering ensures that the phone is secure and that all functionality works as expected. Coupled with the PITAKA MagEZ Case and you have the perfect combination, the best-looking case and car mount, the strongest protection and secure connection between the smartphone and the mount, and no ugly stick on metal plates anywhere to be seen.
Driving Better With A Baseus Car Mount Holder Review
The Baseus Car Mount Holder was recommended to me from a quick eBay search and then a YouTube reviewer. I ordered the vertical type holder, small ears series, with a magnetic bracket.
The box contained a warranty, phone holder, two magnetic mount shapes, two plastic protectors and extra stickers. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any instructions, so it was back to YouTube to watch a how-to video.
The hardest part of installing was finding a suitable flat spot in our car. The 360° universal rotation design allows you to move the phone easily to check the screen while stopped at the lights. Baseus is a technologically innovative company, we design and produce practical and beautiful products for you.
