Forum noob trying to get some insight on phone mounting...

[DrRosenRosen]

I don't really like the Kuda, kinda leaning towards the Bimmian or Pro-Clip. I just wanted some feedback on what you guys are using. I've got a Note 3 with Otterbox Commuter which actually, I don't think will work with the Bimmian. I found some stuff on here from a few years ago, but I would think there would be a few more options now.

I have the Bimmian mount and its nice but I dont think the Note is gonna fit as you stated.

[Avetiso]

I miss my Note 3. :(

have you looked into RamMounts?

I use this for holding my MotoX during track days on the window for timing. It's not the prettiest option but it a great universal holder. They do have specific phone holders if you want to go that route too.

They have a phablet option..

I like Bimmian if you can find a mount that will take your phablet.

Not sure. The Bimmian mount works fine and fits my Galaxy S5. It does slightly poke out the trim, but not a showstopper by any means for me. I've heard some people like the pro-clip too but I don't know anything about it.

Another vote for Bimmian if you can find a mount for your phone. I had one in my ZHP and loved it!

I bought a Bimmian phone mount and I loved it for a while. (http://www.bimmian.com/Mobile-Dash-Mount-for-BMW-from-bimmian.com) Then I got a new phone that was slightly bigger than my old phone. The plastic phone holder didn't stretch open wide enough to fit my phone anymore so the whole thing was useless. I was really mad.

So I had a friend tell me about Panavise.

I ended up buying this phone holder from them and I love it. (https://panavise.com/index.html?pageID=1&page=full&--eqskudatarq=241)

The quality is a lot better than the cheap bimmian one and it bolts right up to the bracket that my bimman phone mount used. So far I am very happy with it.

Right, that's what I meant. Use the bimmian mount base with another clamp. Looks like a good option.

Thanks for the feedback fellas, I'm probably going to go with the Panavise stuff.

I like the Bimmian bracket, but I think the actual phone clip is very poor quality. I bought it this spring, and the first clip lost it's foam pads within a few uses (they are stuck to a little edge of plastic, the design is ridiculous). Bimmian sent me a new one under warranty saying that they've never had this problem before; the second one is starting to go now as well after a month of use.

Dane, does this actually stick to the textured surface of a dashboard? If so I gotta get me one of these babies!!

Foam sucks. I've replaced mine numerous times.

Not sure if the exogear will, but I could take it out of my Mini to try.

Pretty impressive devise. Even sticks to painted drywall.

Right. Just be careful that it doesn't permanently disfigure the dash.

What, like a big 'ol dash hickey?

[danewilson77]

Yup.

[ryankokesh]

Have ya'll actually tried it on the dashboard? I have a different one that claimed to stick to dashes, and does to most I've tried. Just not the zhp dash - I think they tiny crevices are too deep :(

[orange260z]

I ordered two "OSOmount Push" holders from a seller on Amazon.com, I believe they use the same technology (and maybe the same manufacturer) as the EXOmount. Seems pretty cool. The price shipped was quite a bit better than the EXOmount.

I actually more want these for the Veracruz and the 911. I already have the Bimmian cell holder for the BMW.
