  1. I’m OBSESSED. I need more than 1 for my purse, one to leave in my car, one for my bathroom, one for holding my phone while I listen to music, podcasts, and YouTube for cleaning/cooking, and I already have a MagSafe desktop charger next to my laptop.

    I thought I was the only one wanting MORE for filming Content. You NEED mounts in all parts of your home so you can easily create B-roll anywhere you are. I can leave the house and easily forget to grab a mount so to have one that stays in my bag and my car is KEY.

    I can’t find the ONE BEST with one that can sit on the desk, with the best suction and the strongest magnet for my fridge. Some are so heavy.

  2. First I want to commend you for using your own money to procure these products and give us a totally independent and unbiased review. I wanted to find the best and affordable magsafe cell phone to attach to my windshield. However, at the end I was so disappointed that I could not pick one from the ten you reviewed. So can you recommend a magsafe holder for my iPhone, and tell me which one you would buy that meet my criteria:

    1. The magsafe cell phone holder has to be easily mountable to the windshield, and adjustable so I can find a position to see the GPS at a glance.
    2. The magsafe holder has to be strong enough that if I hit a pothole on the road or go over a speed bump, the phone will stay attached.
    3. The built in charger is a nice to have, so I did like your critique of the chargers that took long to charge the phone, but #1 and #2 are more important. So yes, this is a nice to have feature. A long enough USB cable (maybe 6′) for my Apple iPhone to attach to my cigarette lighter to the holder is important to come in the box.
    4. In order to get 1-3 features, I am willing to pay up to $25 for essentially a plastic mount, but $40 is way too much.

    Thanks in advance.
