Hi all,

I've just bought a new phone, I haven't started using it yet but already I'm having doubts. smile

It's a Samsung S21 Ultra, and it's a right slab, with a 6.8 inch screen. I haven't weighed it but I can feel that it's heavier than my previous phone.

I use a Scosche mount in my car, attached to the dashboard, I prefer this over attaching to windscreen. I'm not worried too much about the magnets but I think the weight of my new phone will pull the mount off the dash.

Has anyone had this problem, can anyone recommend a good mount for a smartslab of a phone?

TIA.

My current mount:

Brodit - you buy two pieces, one for your phone and one for your car. Expensive but well worth it.

That looks interesting, I'll check that out, thanks.

An alternative I guess is this kind of thing, but I'm not sure I'm ready for landscape in the car. smile

Another alternative is to glue the phone mount to the dash, but also a bit radical.
