I have Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM version.
I know there are many topics about car docks for Nexus GSM. However, it looks like nobody could suggest an viable solution.
I would like to ask if any of you bought one and happy with their product.
bumping this..
i wish to know too any excerience with some car kit
thanks in advance
I bought the Mountek mount from amazon. It works perfect for my needs.
look into a slipgrip, they make great docks and they're solid.

OEM fit. Expensive. But good quality.
The mount can be used for future/other devices too.

From what i understand you'd need to have your sgs2 out of the case for the official samsung one. (can't verify that from personal experience)
I can't post links since i'm new here, but if you google "Omniholder" you'll find a universal mount that might suit your needs.
Sorry about not being able to provide a direct link!
Thanks for the reply, I have since found a post on here which recommends some car mounts.
The Exomount looks good.
Thanks again
I found one that works with case fitted!
I bought one that fulfills you needs from e-bay a few days ago. I can't post links, so search for "ulette10" member's items (I think no other seller offer this item), and you will find the holer soon.
I'm very satisfied with it, I tested with two different cases (a TPU and a rubbery one) and worked percfectly with both. Easy insert and not as easy remove (but not hard). Has a really goot suction feet and a ballhead for easy orientation.
And it's cheap, at least compared to original Samsung car holder (of course it's a passive one vs. the OEM is active - i.e. charges the phone, I think).
I just got the Brodit 511258 mount, which is designed to work with thin (e.g. TPU) cases. Seems to work pretty well with mine. Harder than hell to find -- no one in the US sells them, so I had to go to clove.co.uk.
I'm using mine with a Brodit SGS2 adjustable holder with phone in a Casemate Tough. Fit's nicely.
Many thanks to all of you for the replies.
I will look at all the suggested in car holders.
I can recommend the Breffo SpiderPodium. Works great and is more than just a car holder too

Any chance of some pics?
I've been using Brodit for several years now but ended up buying the official Samsung car holder for some reason. Unfortunately, it'll require the removal of my Case Mate Tough Case each time, which may become tiresome.
So I may end up going down the Brodit route again, especially if the holder you refer to will accept the phone with a case on.
Today I was looking for Galaxy Nexus car mount holder on Amazon.
I came up with this car mount holder.

It is the best selling car mount.

Is any of you tried this?
I have Galaxy Nexus GSM. I'm wondering if it fits.
I sent an email to the customer service but I'm wondering your comments
I sent email to customer service and this is the answer that i received
Dear xxx,
I have searched on google about your phone, and it says the width is 2.67 inches wide.
Our car mount's adjustable width size is from 2" to 3.2", so it won't be a problem.
Hope this information was helpful, and if you have any other question, please feel free to email us back.
Best regards,
Christina Kim

However, I'm considering to buy the OEM Galaxy Nexus car dock.
i used a slip grip with my cased droid x and found it worked very well.
SlipGrip Galaxy Nexus Options
That looks pretty good,I used to use a $5 belt clip from ebay on my Eris, but now they only make them facing in. Thanks for the link. A bit spendy, but the best option for a case I've seen.

You're welcome.
I checked threads about car holders and I couldn't see anything about this car holder. Even though it is the most popular one in Amazon shop, it is not popular here.

Does this car mount have a clear view when using the camera? Some car mounts you can see a bit of the mount attachment

I have the iOttie mount and its just decent. I have my Gnex in an otterbox defender case and it barely is wide enough to hold it..with maybe a 1/4" to spare..
My phone vibrated and fell out some. It might be more stable if I permanently mounted it to the dash instead of putting it on the windshield.
But give it a go if you want. Its dirt cheap on amazon.

Thanks for comment. I think I will order it.
I'm willing to buy an office car dock for GNEX GSM, but I think it is still not released?

Hi,
I tried searching the forum but with no results.
I recently bought a case for my phone a Galaxy S3 Otterbox Commuter Series.
I am looking forward to buy a car mount but can't find one that fits the phone + the case. I dont want to have to remove the phone from the case everytime I want to plug it in the car.
Is there any car mount that will fit the phone + case? I also prefer suction cup mount but I can't find any.
There is the Mounttek Universal Car Mount in The Master List for Accessories thread but it fits in the vents.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Sorry,
I thought I posed in the accessories section.
Can a mod please move my thread?
Thanks.
I found these online.
I'm looking for the same thing, but not wanting to spend $30

There is a company called vtec that makes an adjustable mount. I used to see them at the local auto parts store pretty much fit any phone in there. except the gaudy note.
I love my exogear, sticks to anything. Does not matter what case it's in.

Can anyone recommend me a car dock for Gnex. My Gnex lives in Otterbox Commuter. I am interested in this one but not sure if this is compatible with Commuter or not.

Thanks
Cheers!!

Thanks but that's a mount , i am after a dock.
The Samsung one you linked is definitely NOT compatible with any case, much less an otterbox.
Its a tough squeeze to get the naked phone in it.
There are no pogo or micro USB dock for Gnex + case.
We waited 7 months just to get the first car dock for GSM.
If you don't want to take off the case everytime you get in the car, you gotta DIY.
What connection were you planning on using?
Post your photos and reviews of car mounts for the HTC One.
I picked up one of these. It fits the One really well, it is easy to insert and remove the phone. The suction cup grips my dash really well, there is no way this thing is coming loose. The mount is not too large so it does not take up a lot of space on your dash and it is well made.

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the iOttie mount it has over 3000 reviews on amazon.

I used to have that one. A good mount, solid, but too bulky in my opinion. I highly recommend this:

its so minimal and awesome. goes right on my air vent for close access. I use it in landscape and just have to press down with my phone to put it in and out

I have one in my car right now. It's awesome. It fits a Note 2 and still works with smaller phones like the One. The one handed removal and the auto closing feature is great to get the phone on the mount quickly.

This is the one I use, I got it on sale when it was around $15 and has served it's purpose well.
Unlike most dash mounts, this one goes into a CD player deck which I hardly use for CD's anyway. It locks in and it holds pretty secure.
i just bought one of these. it looks nice, but it wont work with a case on your phone. http://www.ebay.com/itm/121120265750?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

I have tried Iottie, Mountek before. Now I have been using Steelie and all I can say is that Steelie is the best car mount for me. It is really easy to use and it covers very little space on your dashboard or console. No vibration at all and it is really flexible that you can adjust any angle really easily.
I also have the car mount in the OP. It's awesome. I've had it for about two weeks now, and it hasn't budged.
I bought this one from Nokia.I thing this is the perfect car mount for HTC ONE !
Only 17 euro.
Wow I really love that car mount!! Thanks!

Any dock with integrated charger?
So far the only 2 options I saw were the stock dock, which doesn't work for me since I have a cover. and the iBolt, which is somehow universal and flimsy, I had the iBolt dock for my S3 and hated it.
I've use Proclip for years with my Galaxy Nexus. I just picked up a HTC One so I've got one of their mounts on order.

It' the same company that made the official sprint dock for the Evo LTE
I was browsing this a while ago and read about the Kenu Airframe. Ordered it last week. Shipped on monday and arrived today. Probably one of the most solid car mounts I've ever held for that price. Fits great even with a case and fits my circular vent perfectly. Was a bit skeptical because my vent is a bit recessed, but it worked out fine and is pretty damn solid. 5/5.
What a deal
Picked this up while browsing the clearance section in TJMax discount store. Made by "Digimaxx". Only paid $4.00!
I highly suggest the niteize steely also.
Ordered the airframe as well. Gotta agree it is solidly built and is alot smaller than what I imagined. I like how it can hold different devices and has enough pressure and grip so there will be no slipping. Great product and design.
