iTap 3 Vent Mount

This iOttie iTap 3 magnetic mount is an excellent upgrade. I previously used the iOttie Easy One Touch 6 cradle-style mount, and I much prefer the magnetic version. The magnetic design is cleaner, less bulky, and makes placing and removing the phone incredibly easy. No squeezing arms or adjusting a cradle every time. I’ve only used this mount attached to my windshield, and it has been extremely solid and secure. The magnet is strong and holds the phone firmly, even on rough roads. Installation was easy, and once it’s in place, it just works. If you’re deciding between a cradle-style mount and a magnetic one, this is absolutely the better option. I wouldn’t go back to the old style.

I love this little guy. I’ve had countless mounts, including several magnetic ones and this is easily the best for my Subaru. It locks onto the vent tightly, and holds my phone perfectly. For reference I use an iPhone with MagSafe and couldn’t be happier.

The iOttie iTap 3 Magnetic Air Vent Car Mount is an excellent choice if you want a clean, magnetic-only mounting solution that doesn’t require suction cups, windshield mounts, or adhesive dashboard pads. Its strong magnets, compact design, and ball-joint adjustability make it a solid option for everyday use. However, the tradeoff is that your vent’s mobility is largely locked out once installed — so if you frequently adjust your vent direction or like to move it around, that limitation may be frustrating. Also, care must be taken when placing the magnetic ring for optimal alignment. I’d give it 4 out of 5 stars for performance and convenience. For buyers who don’t mind fixing their vent direction, it’s a great mount. If vent flexibility is critical to you, you may want to consider alternatives (e.g. dashboard mounts or mounts that clip without stopping your vent adjustment).

got 3 of them for work to go in trucks, lo and behold one of our trucks got into a pretty bad wreck, like, insanely bad (everyones okay) and when we went to recover things out of the truck this thing was STILL MOUNTED TO THE DASH, thats INSANE how good the stick and suction and tackyness is that it didnt fly off the dash. i will be buying 3 more immediantly for backups, these are now my go-to brand, i dont care how much they charge.

The iOttie iTap 2 Magnetic CD Slot Car Mount Holder is a good concept but doesn't work well in practice (at least not for a large, heavy phone such as a Samsung Note 8). The device installs simply and easily in the CD slot, so no issues with that. I installed the on-phone attachment plate exactly per iOttie's instructions, needing to place it nearer the bottom of the back of the phone to allow wireless charging to remain useable. I have a very thin silicone case on the phone, and I chose the installation where the magnetic plate goes directly on the phone between the case and the back of the phone. All good so far, but things went bad quickly from there. The magnetic hold between the phone and the holder seemed strong enough when I placed the phone on the device, but at the first minor turn in the road, the phone twisted off axis and seemed like it might fall off the device. You can forget completely about placing the phone in landscape orientation as with the off-center plate position needed to preserve the wireless charging function of the phone, it doesn't stay in place for even a second, immediately twisting out of position (almost to upside down vertical) from the pull of gravity. Finally, one could only imagine the horror story if the phone were to become a free-flying projectile in the cabin of the car if you hit a large bump in the road or get into even a minor fender-bender, let alone a major accident. A modern smartphone is a heavy object and could do real and serious damage to someone in the car if it got to flying around, which seems a real possibility since nothing holds it on the device but the magnets, which my experience indicates is a tenuous force that holds the phone in place. Long-story short, using the CD slot for a phone holder is the best place for a phone in my car, so I returned the magnetic device and purchased the iOttie Easy One Touch 4 CD Slot Mount phone holder instead, which is the same holder, but uses mechanical, spring-loaded arms to hold the phone in place. Works perfectly and I couldn't be happier, but I suggest staying clear of the magnetic holder. It's a good concept that just doesn't function well in practice! and seems fraught with possible danger in the case where it could get loose and fly around the cabin of the vehicle!

If you want something to hold your phone while you drive without spending much, this works. Easy to install. I deliver mail on a rural route with a lot of unpaved, bumpy roads. The magnet does a surprisingly good job of holding my phone. Drops are infrequent and occur on the roughest parts if I hit a pothole or rock going a little too fast. Cons - the arm that allows you to adjust the angle doesn’t tighten correctly so it continues to move phone’s angle and height while driving. I am not watching videos and typically don’t need GPS so it’s more annoying than anything although I do worry about damage to my phone’s camera from the constant movement on bumpy terrain. 5 stars if this actually held my steady but it doesn’t. I can’t really speak to the mount adhesion as yet since it’s winter and it hasn’t been tested in high temperatures. That being said, I anticipate that the adhesive will eventually degrade and need to be replaced. For the price of the mount, that doesn’t bother me. I plan on replacing it with alien tape or something similar when it fails. (I got the flush mount and put it in a central position below my dashboard near vents.)

ottimo consigliato!!

Fits well into the cd slot in Audi b8.5. I've been using it for 2 weeks, seems to be stable on paved roads also. Magnet is strong, I'm using it with iphone 13 mini and the small plate under a case. So far it is doing perfect.

Excellent

磁力強いから厚めのケースに鉄板挟んでいてもしっかりくっつく！ オーディオパネルのボリュームボタンの関係で上下逆で取り付け！ 思ったより振動でブレる事も少なく満足！

The product is very well built, nice look and provide good stability to I Phone 14, highly recommended.
