Universal Car Dock?

Anyone use a good Universal Car Dock that will work with the GNex?

Amazon seems to have a decent selection. I just ordered an Exomount. The have a demo video on their site and it looks pretty good.

I ordered the Skiva StrongMount today. Should have it by tomorrow.

I ordered a Empire universal mount. Don't buy it. It's advertised with GNex compatibility, the side arms push down the volume keys, even worse, It broke what I was trying to extend the arm. It was only $8, I guess I got what I paid for.

Sure. Just got it. Gonna try it out tonight.

The mount is surprisingly small. The base has some type of sticky element that allows it to attach to multiple surfaces. I'll find out tonight how well it holds up on a car ride.

Hello Jerk82,
How do you like the car mount?
Thanks

I'm wondering if I would be able to mod this with my official GSM Car Dock. My case on the phone (a small/slim TPU case. It's really popular here, I just can't remember the name) has cutouts for the pogo pins, but my phone obviously won't fit into the car dock with the case on.
Something like this would be perfect if I could "enable" the pogo pins.

I dig it. Its been on my dash since I bought it and its fallen off twice, which I think is due to the heat from being in direct sun light for months.

i want a extra slim case to protect the carbon back cover!!

I am looking forward for some cool vehicle mount this time from samsung lets wait and see if worth the shot.

For vehicle mount I think I will stick to Brodit. Mostly because I already go the base mount installed in my car

I believe they are doing a blood pressure monitor attachment. I might get one of these for when my credit card statement arrives.

I would love to get those flip cases

thanks - although that's quite expensive...especially those screen protectors.
I got my set + a silicone protection for £4, here they are charging £12 just for 5 protectors, which I doubt are cut to shape.

Bike Mount
This is the mount I use on my motorcycle. It is designed to fit the phone with the Seidio Active Case with kickstand. They have other models for other cases as well and they also have models that are designed for just the phone without a case. The mount is excellent and I have no complaints whatsoever with it. I also had one of these mounts for my previous phone as well. Never had any problems.

Look into the Rokbed by Rokform. Should be coming out soon and the mount is very very good. The Kraken is nice, but isn't very solid. If you're doing some hardcore riding there is a chance it could fall out or shake too much.

This is the trident kraken case I got at www.cyclopscase.com I have it mounted in my mountain bike. Case holds on great and takes a beating.

looks awesome now that its out! Problem is, case is 45$ and the bike mount is 69! Kind of pricey ;/

Also on the search for a bike mount.
One concern I've heard regarding the Rokform is that it's not at all waterproof. There are so many open areas that could potentially allow water to destroy your phone! And let's face it, if you're biking, you're probably going to encounter water. That (along with the insanely high price) is a definite deal breaker for me.
The Kraken at least has port covers.

I've been looking at the Ultimate Addons waterproof case on Amazon UK which comes with various handlebar mounts. It's sold through buybits UK as well.
www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B009YU7IMA/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1363340290&sr=8-3&pi=SL75
I don't think it's fully submersible waterproof but looks fine to use in a quick downpour.
It's just a little big for me for a full time case and I can't justify getting one just as a spare for the motorbike when my tank bag has a clear section for phones.

oooohh...
Well for the first one I posted, the Seidio Convert holster, you can't buy it alone. You have to buy the Convert Add-On kit thing from the Seidio website. It's the only only one of the three (Surface, Active, Convert) that they don't sell individually. (yet?)
However, the price for the add-on thing is 29.95 which is the same price they sell the other 2 holsters for. The only difference is with this one you'll get a couple extra pieces for the same price.
You could most likely sell them to someone who already has the Seidio Surface case or the Best Buy version(the Platinum case)... that is what the add on is for anyway.
Keep the holster, sell the other 2 pieces or just leave them hanging around the house. lol I'm too lazy to sell something so I'll probably just have extra pieces floating around my house.

[Q] N1 Car Holder for the Dashboard

Hi together,
im quite new here and want to say "Hello" on this way with a Question. (btw im not sure if this forum is right, i hope so)
As the Oppo N1 is a really huge Phone, btw i like that size, its too big for my trouserpocket, especeially when i drive in my car to get it fast out.
So i want to install a car holder in my car. it sure can be screwed on the Dashboard of my car, i dont trust thesuction cup ones for the mechanical/vibration stability.
But im unsure what car holder to take, the most seem to be too small for the N!, do you have any Experience and can give me some advise?
Thanks in Advance and Regards
Danny

This technically belongs in the accessories forum.
I gave been using the mountek grip. It goes in the CD slot so it is very secure.
