We’ve rounded up the very best car mounts that are currently on the market, and included them here. These range from just a few bucks, to over $50. So there’s something for everyone.
iOttie Easy One Touch 2
The iOttie Easy One Touch 2 is a really good option for those that don’t want to use magnets to hold their phone in place (for any reason). This one uses a suction cup to attach to your dashboard and then has an arm that is adjustable, so depending on your dashboard, it can come closer to you. Allowing you to actually see the display. It’s a really good looking car mount, but it’s one of those that can’t really be hidden when you are driving, so unfortunately you might want to take it off the dashboard when you aren’t using it. Since you likely don’t need to use navigation every time you jump into the car these days.
Squish Wireless Charger Car Mount
The Squish car mount is a bit different than the others on this list. This one is a wireless charging car mount, which is going to offer up the ability to charge your Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus while you are driving, and not end up at your destination with a dead battery. Since this one uses wireless charging, it does not use magnets to hold your phone in place. Instead, it has adjustable arms on the side to hold your phone in place, and it also has a “shelf” at the bottom to keep it from sliding out. Which is a really good feature to have. As the last thing you want to happen is, you hit a pothole and the phone slides out of the car mount and hits the floor. Definitely not something people will like, and most would stop using that car mount.
Spigen Kuel S40-2 Turbulence Car Mount
This is one of the most interesting looking car mounts out there, and it really doesn’t even look like a car mount. The Spigen Kuel S40-2 Turbulence Car Mount is a minimalist car mount for those that don’t want to use magnets. This is a car mount that folds down when it is not in use. Just open it up and stick your phone in the mount, in landscape mode and you are good to go. It’s a good option, because it is fairly small when it is not in use, so that it is not blocking your view of the road all that much.
VAVA Magnetic Phone Holder
If you really want something that is minimalistic, then the VAVA Magnetic Phone Holder is also a good option. This is going to be a great option. It’s very small, and magnetic, so you can just slap your phone on the mount and be good to go. You can articulate the mount to point in the way you wish, so that you can actually see it while you’re driving and such. This car mount is a good option for those vehicles that have a lower dashboard, where an Air Vent mount might be too low, but don’t want a huge dashboard mount. It’s a good looking mount, that won’t get in the way when it is not being used.
iOttie Easy One Touch Qi Wireless Fast Charge Car Mount
iOttie is back on this list, and it’s for the wireless car charger that it is selling. This is a fast wireless charger, and the Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10 Plus both support fast charging. So you can mount your phone and once you get to where you’re going, you’ll have a fully charged smartphone. Having wireless charging in a car mount is pretty cool, as you can just put your phone in the mount and use it for navigation, and when you get to your destination, you have a fully charged device. Or at least more juice than when you had left home. This is also a dashboard car mount from iOttie, and it uses a suction cup to stay attached to the dashboard. It also uses adjustable arms to keep the phone in place, with a shelf at the bottom to keep it in the mount, even if you hit a bump. So there’s no magnets here, which wouldn’t be a good idea on a wireless charging car mount anyways.
Maxboost Air Vent Car Mount
This mount from Maxboost is a magnetic mount, making it great for those that want something minimal in their vehicle. It attaches to the air vent in your car, so that it is out of your line of sight through the windshield, but still where you can see it and use it for navigation. Maxboost offers this in a two-pack, so you could get one for your car and another for your significant other’s car, and it’s still pretty cheap. Making it a good option for a lot of people. This does use magnets to keep your phone in place, so you can put a magnet inside your phone’s case to mount it on your air vent. Don’t worry though, as it will not damage your phone at all. Just don’t affix the magnet to your phone, or it’ll never come off without damaging the phone. Slide it inside your case and you’re good to go – and you’ll never even see the magnet!
Roav VIVA with Car Mount
This is a special one, that we’re adding to this list. This is actually a car charger that is bundled with a car mount. And as you might expect, it’s the most expensive entry on this list. Then Anker has included its own car mount. This is a pretty minimal car mount, which does use magnets to hold your phone in place. It mounts to your dashboard and that’s about it. Just put your phone down on it when you get in the car and it’ll start charging. Which is pretty simple and easy.
Wrap Up
This list of car mounts has something for everyone, literally. Whether you’re looking for something cheap and minimal, or something that doesn’t use magnets, or even something that uses wireless charging. It’s all on this list. These range in different prices, so depending on what you are looking for, there’s something for you. Of course, one of our favorites is the Maxboost Air Vent Car Mount. That’s because you’re actually getting two car mounts for about $8. But you are also getting a pretty small car mount that doesn’t look ugly and in the way when you aren’t using it. This does use magnets to hold your phone in place when you are driving. Some might think that could damage your phone, but it does not. You can slide the magnet into your case and then slap the phone on the mount each time you get into the car and you’re good to go. All of the car mounts on this list are great for the Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10 Plus. And you really can’t go wrong with any of them.
