There are a few things I really like about this mount; in my opinion, the most important thing is that it does its core task really well and reliably: holding a cell phone. To do this, I attached (glued) the included magnetic ring to the back of my Samsung Galaxy S9. The ring is really very thin and doesn't interfere in the least during normal use, i.e. you can also put a protective case around the phone without it significantly bulging out. The next positive point is the stability of the holder: with the matte aluminum, it not only looks high-quality, but it also feels the same when used — the rotating mechanism for creating the vacuum on the suction cup runs cleanly and gives haptic feedback, giving you a good feeling of how far you have to turn. But even the hinges, which are used when opening and adjusting the angle, are still stable even after several weeks of very intensive use of the holder and do not simply slip. Yes, they may be a bit difficult to use, but they should also hold the cell phone securely in position. And for that, the resistance that you have to overcome to adjust the angle is quite appropriate. Also nice: if the holder was attached to a glass table top or something similar with a suction cup, for example, I could easily remove the cell phone from the holder with just one hand without it appearing unstable. I think that the manufacturer really succeeded in balancing a secure, firm grip and normal operation. That's why I have a clear recommendation for this product for anyone who needs a new mount for their home or car.
