Yes. I've the same one.

I was right.

How well does the suction cup hold?

On glass it has not lost suction once, and thats with a very bumpy ride because of my crappy shocks.

I've been wanting a sideways dock to use the desk clock and watching videos from my nighty stand. It wouldn't be that hard to make n i can even put speakers in it. Sounds like something to do tomorrow.

I would, however every do it yourself job has only been USB charging unless you are running a custom kernel. The OEM dock does AC charging and invokes the dock mode which gives proper landscape with the OEM launcher.
USB charging is not enough to keep up in Navigation mode.

I found something interesting in the description that they provide (will be higlighted in bold)
The OEM Samsung Desktop Dock is designed to hold the *Samsung Galaxy Nexus while charging it. The dock comes with a standard micro USB input that can be used with either a main charger or USB cable and a 3.5mm audio line-out connection so that you can connect your device to an external speaker for high-quality audio reproduction. The dock has been designed to be used in both portrait and landscape orientations. This means that you can switch from answering emails to watching YouTube clips without having to unplug your device. The dock also has additional volume controls on the side so that you can adjust the volume regardless of the orient of your phone.
I wonder what these additional volume controls are. Because looking at previous pics of the dock I didn't see any actual buttons on it to control the volume. I hope they aren't referring to the volume on the phone or external speakers.
It is just a shame that I had already ordered the dock from expansys.ca and expecting it in a couple of days otherwise I would have went with this option.

hmm this has been out for a while in canada... almost a month, if not longer

I ordered two of them on April 17th. They are being shipped (from Vancouver). I have the tracking number, and the expected delivery date is April 24th.

Cool I ordered one yesterday but no tracking as of yet

Yeah mine is on the way as well, should be able to pick it up from my local store on Monday!

Mine is showing shipped now. Should be at my store by Monday I hope. Excited to test it out.

Pogo
Are you sure it is coming? I ordered this from gocellular and the guy who runs the website there told me he was misinformed by the person he ordered it from... it was just one of the portrait docks. Not trying to burst anyone's bubbles but I would hate you guys get a landscape dock just because of some unscrupulous supplier.
Please post if you get it! I would be glad to order from whomever has these things.

From the pictures and video I have seen, I don't think it will work with a case on.... that being said nothing stopping ya from making alterations to the case to make it fit. It is plastic... I have one en-route and will also be getting a case as soon as I can decide on what one. Dock is cheap enough to risk being a bit creative.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium

SIII naked is a tight fit.
SIII with a case is an absolute 'not happening'.
With that said, you can take a heat gun to the plastic arms of the Infuse case and bend them outwards. Doing this will let the SIII fit with a case on.
But whether or not it will "snap into place" as it does naked, or whether it retains the ability to hold it in place at all... is not something I can say for certain.
I do plan on trying it though. Just need to find the spare time.

Do you have a link to this thing online somewhere so I can see what you're talking about?

I believe I found the dock on AT&T's online shop, current price $17.99. I'd post the link, but I've got under 10 posts (this is my first) so that feature's disabled for me. Best I can do for the time being: /shop/wireless/accessories/cases/sku5190308.html
Very interesting, I'm considering grabbing one for my Verizon S3, because I currently have no car mount of any kind and have been looking through my options.
For those with one already:
Does this dock obscure the S3's headphone port at all?
General thoughts on build quality, windshield suction strength, etc.?
Are there any other decent car docks with comparable prices I might want to look at?

It's really sturdy with a GS3, suction is good as well. No vibrations even on at high speeds. Headphone port isn't obscured, although remember you can just use the audio out jack on the dock itself so that you don't have to fiddle with plugging/unplugging an aux cable in your car.

Got mine, now just waiting for my S3. Looks pretty nice for sure.

I just got mine this morning, and tried Pandora and Play Music and neither would play audio through the usb. Not sure if I'm missing something, but audio is being played from the speaker.
EDIT: Went into Settings>Dock and "Audio output mode" wasn't checked. Checked it and now audio plays through usb.

You just need to go into phone/settings/dock/ and enable audio-out through 3.5mm jack. Then connect a 3.5mm audio cable from dock to car stereo. You do not use the headphone jack on the phone. You use the port on the dock.
Or use bluetooth.

Is this the one you're all talking about?

Car Dock??

Is ibolt still the best car dock? is there seriously nothing better out there?

Made with the S3 in mind, yes (although it says it works with other models, like the S2). I haven't seen anything else out there apart from the Infuse dock which has gone scarce.
I've already got one, and a second on the way for my other car. With the current AT&T ICS software, USB sound works, but phone call sound doesn't route out the USB, so you must use the built-in speaker or a bluetooth unit.
I also have a T-Mobile S3 on official JB release. Works the same as the AT&T software, but I haven't actually tried phone calls to see if Samsung/T-Mobile fixed that issue.
I've been told CM10 supports both USB and phone audio, but I've never seen anyone confirm the phone audio part.

I found this... http://www.wirelessground.com/ibolt-samsung-galaxy-s3-s-iii-intelligent-vehicle-charging-dock.html for $36.95+Shipping (Cyber Monday Special) any better price than that out there?

It's [ibolt] the best option for a dock that has built-in USB cable capability. Unless you use a naked phone, then I would prefer the Infuse dock (does not work with ANY cases).
If you don't need USB cable built into the dock, then there are several options that look better IMO.
I'm really disappointed there aren't better dock options from Samsung themselves. No Infuse type dock for the S3 with case option. Very disappointed considering how many bazillions of S3's they have sold.

I just got the Imagnet holder today gonna test it out

+1 for imagnet. have gone through many docks and couldnt be happier with it

Heres a couple of mounts I found while searching for some different mounting options for my car. They have built-in micro USB plug, but they are a little pricey.
Note, if the link doesn't work, click on device mounts, then choose Samsung and galaxy (obviously) from the drop-downs...

I use the infuse dock. Works great! Cant use with a case though. Its a snug fit.

I bought the Infuse as well, unfortunately, there's not really a good place to mount it in my car. If I use the windshield I cant reach the phone, and most of the dash space within reach is used up by vents/controls/compartments, etc. Kinda disappointed, I was looking forward to using the Infuse.

I had the same issue. The base is huge and the ball joint is not flexible enough. I ended up taking the base off and drilling a hole into my okd nexus dock. I'll post a pic later.

Ive tried the infuse and universal docks, but finally tried the imagnet and love it. I mounted the magnet flush to my center console just under my stereo. Perfect reach, small, phone sticks like glue (while still being able to rotate it). Been waiting for a good solution for a couple years now.

Anyone try the modded touchstone? This topic got me looking and I plan to do that later

Compatible Samsung Dock?

So far there's not a Dock available for the note but I've found this two that maybe work, they're for the GS2-3-4. Obviously they're narrow because are designed for cellphones but who knows if they do the trick for the note. If someone has one and tried on their note, please let us know how it turned out.

The dock fits my Note 2 while still in the case, yet seems to be fairly stable holding the much thinner tab w/o one. Fairly cheap too at $6.71, $2 less than I paid for it.
While you're at it, pick up the BT speakers: http://t.rs-tk.com/t.aspx/subid/186...hone-Intelligent-Voice-Speaker-Red-MINS-597B/

Good.. Thanks, I think the first one I posted looks like it has a more longer area to hold the note... Didn't decide yet but now that you tried one helps a lot, thanks.
I have a similar Altec speaker, thanks anyway..

Here you go. Sorry, I was out of town for the weekend.
It's usable, but tap it super hard and it'll go over backwards. I wouldn't be afraid to charge it this way or do some light reading if you're careful, but it works much better with my Note II.

I'm using the Belkin Charge & Sync Dock for Galaxy S4.
Although it does work as a charger and stand for the note 10.1 2014, it wasn't really designed for it. You probably wouldn't want to do any heavy table use while it's on the stand, and it is not the easiest thing to slide the tablet onto the micro-usb jack.
I search almost weekly for a really good dock. One that is like the Sony Xperia Tablet Z would be perfect, if it had a usb jack in the middle/bottom.

This is looking more promising, I've just sent off for it...will let you know how it performs when it arrives.

Hi Lads & Lasses,
Quick Update on the dock I sent off for.
The dock holds the tablet securely & it's very stable, the pics show it connected up to the mains via usb cable & charging the tablet & no problems, but I noticed when when connected to the PC via usb data transfer is no problem but it doesn't charge, this may be a prob for some users..but it's one which I personally can live with especially for the price.
Hope this helps!!!
