Could anyone share a good suction cup car mount that I could use with a seidio case? A universal is fine, just want something with good quality. Doesn't need to charge but allows a car charger to plug in while mounted.
Thanks for any input.
I bought this Exo-Mount from Exo-Gear on Amazon.

That one is sweet too... Gotta make up my mind. Haha
Arkon's Mobile Grip sticky mount can be mounted to the windshield or dash, though they market it as a dash / console mount.

It will work with the GS2, I've put a Galaxy Nexus in it.
You could even use this as a desk mount if you wanted to.
Exomount is where it's at! Just got mine in the mail yesterday and it is solid!

its better quality than the arkon mounts ive had in the past. also, it doesnt look cheap either. i dont know why you'd be worried too much, because i dont see how you can break this if you use it properly.

i'll take a "cheap plasticy" holder THAT WORKS WELL than a fine looking pos holder anyday. i vouch for the exomount. the reason i got it was its capability to hold a device with a case in landscape mode. the last universal holder i had couldn't do that very well. it barely held a vibrant in landscape mode. that clip design is where it's at.
I received my exomount today. I love it! Not cheap plastic at all. The suction cup is awesome!
Got my exomount a couple days ago.
I surely didn't have to worry about the jaws opening enough, will certainly hold any case.
Works great.
I posted a review with a video for the exomount. Just do a search and you can see it with our phone and in a case.

I also have the exomount. Awesome mount. Holds very well to the surface and holds the phone well too even with a case (I use it with the body glove).
I use it as a tripod for recording also.
I will say that the plastic did feel cheaper than expected. I think the only place that would be an issue would be at the swiveling points. If you are adjusting your viewing position a lot I could see the plastic snapping if you accidentally use too much torque at a bad angle.
Good evening!
I'm in need of some suggestions.
I'd like to get a mount to put my phone in but I'm kind of out of ideas..
Here's where I'm at:
-I don't want a window mount. I've had one fall off and explode my phone before.
-I don't have a CD player so I can't use a CD slot mount.
-A cup holder mount wouldn't work well in a 04 Aveo's cup holder.
-A lighter mount wouldn't work because the cup holder is on top of it.
Otherwise, I have no idea where to mount my phone!
Any ideas/suggestions?
I bought a Kenu Airframe for my current phone (iPhone 5. Waiting for my OPO!). It's a mount that goes onto your air vent. The phone doesn't slip or move at all. I got it on sale. There's an Airframe+ for 5.5 inch screens. I haven't tried the Airframe+, but I suspect it works the same.
Can you let me know if the OPO fits in the original Airframe? People were reporting it working with a Galaxy S4 with a case so it might be close. The vents in my car are vertical, though, so I wonder if it would slip off...

Can confirm, the OPO fits in the original Airframe. Using it with mine, works great.
You can rotate the rubber teeth 360º so it can be used with any vent setup (vertical/horizontal/rotating vents)

perfect. i'm going to see if i can find something about how it performs on vertical vents and that'll probably be the one i end up getting. Thank you!

I have but when all is said and done, having to buy a clip then a mount, it seems to be restrictively expensive....
I got my OPO today. Here's some pictures of it in the mount. It cannot fit in the mount with a case on. I tried it with the Diztronic.

I thought this also, but with my HTC One, and now my OPO I wouldn't go anywhere else but Brodit Proclips...they are perfect.
OPO has to use a universal clip, but even that fits than 2-3 other ones I've tried for the OPO.
If you have the cash, give it a go.

I've emailed their support and they said they're pretty sure that it'll work fine on my car and that if it doesn't, I can return it for a full refund.
This may be the way to go.

I got my Airframe the other day and can confirm that it works just fine with the OPO and my vertical vents.
I have to make sure the direction of the vent is all the way up or it pushes the vent fin out of alignment (requiring me to take the dash apart to fix it!)
It's a little wobbly for my taste but it's better than the phone sitting on the seat next to me!
Thank you guys for the suggestion.

I have a kenu Airframe and the opo fits fine without a case. It does not fit with case.
I've just ordered the Airframe+ to compensate. I'm a huge fan of the Kenu and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Has anyone found a car mount/dock that has a built in charger and/or audio out? It's kind of a pain to have to hook up the charge cord and audio cord every time I want to put the phone in my car mount. My old Samsung G2 mount was like that. Just plug your charge cord into the mount, as well as your audio cord, then when you slipped the phone in the cradle, it would slide into the usb, start charging and have an audio out signal.
used an airframe for my nexus 5, i didnt like it, due to how it was positioned in my honda civic. it was always diagonal facing away from me.
i guess it depends on the car u have. ima try iOttie

Hello guys, I know that this might seem silly to some, but it's the only way I could get a decent screen protector on my V20. Problem is (at least in my country) that there aren't any good screen protectors in the market. Only one store sells them, and they don't stick to the screen at the top and bottom edges where it's curved, so I took some measures and drew a template in autocad, bought an Armorsuit protector (ipad size) and cut it. It fit PERFECTLY and it's case friendly too. I hope this helps

Sure can do, tomorrow i'll take them with my gf's phone camera so you can see it clearly, but it fits PERFECTLY. I use it with a Ringke Fusion Case and there's no lifting in the edge problem or anything like that. Like I said before this might seem quite useless to most, in the US you can easily get the Armor Suit for the V20, but here it's almost impossible so I had to find the way.

My OPO flip cover (original) is falling apart, and I am having a hard time finding a similar replacement. The few that I can find on Amazon or Aliexpress have wallet slots/pockets or the wrap-around strap, which seem to add unnecessary extra bulk. If anyone knows of a good replacement cover, I would appreciate your suggestion. Thanks!
I find myself in exactly the same situation. Best thing I've found so far is this case from mofi. The problem is that I think it doesn't have the magnet that the original case has for waking up the screen. If you have found some other alternative I would love to hear of it!

I have bought that case twice already, it has the magnet. It's a pretty good case, but I liked the original more. Unfortunately the only place where I could find the original is used from private sellers.
I have a new and original blue Oneplus One flip cover in the box. PM if interested.

Thanks to CedArctic for sharing the cover you found, and to sRexMartinus for your testimonial! I have not found better alternatives myself, only an eBay listing of an original cover which had already been sold. I think I will give this one a try.
Hi All,
I've been using Samsung Leather Cover exchangeably with Spigen Air Skin and find the latter a perfect balance between protection and thinness.
I've looked online and could not find cases that would be thin, but have a kickstand.
Has anyone found anything of that sort and can share?
P.S. I am watching the Spigen Neo Hybrid S, but it is still on preorder and not available in Poland, yet.
I am using the Spigen Slim Armor Pro Pen Edition case, although it is going to be slightly thicker - not much though and it does provide amazing protection all around including hinge and holds the S-pen.
As for the Kickstand, an option that I did is stuck a ESR Boost Kickstand on the back of the case which works both with it folded vertical or horizontal and also unfolded so that you have several lean positions.
You could use stick it on your air skin case, but suggest you give serious consideration to the Spigen Slim Armor Pro Pen case if you are using the Air skin, as a better case all-around.
Pics also show my pop socket, another great way to hold the phone, and I also use it with the car mount, and twist off when I wirelessly charge.
Those solutions look quite bulky and I do not like those rings.
Will continue waiting for Neo Hybrid S, unless someone can suggest another good solution
Can u suggest me a strap like the one on the official samsung sylicon case?
Right now im using spigen air case
One strap that looks cool - multi purpose is demoed on GregglesTV Video review which you may like.
I seen another one in one of the forums, not sure which -XDA or Reddit, but you just loop it through the camera opening and the bottom of the camera - very simple but also practical- not sure of the brand or name though.
that setup looks great but I like to use wireless charging I had the Spigen Slim Armor Pro but didn't realize they had a sperate one for the s pen so I returned it

Alredy got the 2nd one u mentioned. Its the ringke back strap. The love strap is not available in india
Wow, India, OK, well those are the two that I have seen...
Myself I use a pop socket, and use it also to mount to my magnetic mount in my car.
When I am going to wirelessly charge, I just twist the pop socket off, and good to charge.

Awesome, happy I was able to help, yeah it looks pretty cool, dual purpose case add-on, enjoy!
Got this armid fiber case from ebay. its so lite and grippy. But i doubt any protection as the cuts outs are so thinn almost i would say negligible. Although it fells better in hand when compared to spigen air
The case seems to be not covering Some of the edges. But i like the matte grippy feel as i have sweaty hands
So, over 2 weeks ago I got the sleek strip and I have to say it is great. I only use it in unfolded state, but it makes holding the phone so much more comfortable, I can really recommend it.
