Bumpy roads, take me home: this $9 phone mount is steady on even the roughest rides

What is it?

It's a fact of modern life: We all need our phones while driving. Even if you don't text, GPS is immensely helpful and, let's face it, the radio has nothing on Spotify. But how to stay connected safely? This Hussell Magnetic Car Mount is designed for universal compatibility across almost any phone, and it makes it easy to mount your device so that it can be seen with just a glance. Oh, and the best part? It's on sale for $9.

Why is this a good deal?

This little gadget normally goes for $14. Amazon had already knocked a dollar off that; throw in the 30% coupon and you've got a steal at $9. While it's not the lowest price of all time, it's still a darn good discount.

Why do I need this?

Unlike a lot of other phone mounts, the Hussell Magnetic Car Mount is easy to attach and use. You don't have to worry about your phone slipping off, either — as long as its magnet is strong, it will stay in place where it should be.

What's more impressive is that the mount is designed to work with a broad range of devices. In fact, Hussell even claims it will work with iPads. If you need to mount something in your vehicle for easy access while on the road — without taking the time to look down and away from the road — this is a great option.

It mounts by clipping onto your car's vent, and then you can rotate it up to 360 degrees to find the exact position you want.

What reviewers say

"Perfect, I had several phone holders. I'm short, so I didn't want anything on my windshield that could interfere with my view. This is sturdy. Phone does not fall off when I go over speed bumps or railroad tracks," one vertically challenged reviewer said.

Another fan related, "My first two cell holders were adhesive that eventually fell off the dash. I wanted one for my vents, but I drive a Ford with vertical vents. All holders I had found previously only worked on horizontal vents. This one is awesome! It's strong and doesn't tilt or get wobbly. Only downside is that I can't move my vent from side-to-side. I have a Pixel 3a and magnet is perfect. Maybe a bigger phone won't stay up, but I don't know. Everything is perfectly strong enough to hold and tilt where I want it with my size phone."

"It really works," said a final shopper. "I have a Samsung Z Fold3 and I've been unable to find a magnetic holder that actually holds my phone closed and opened. It easily attaches to the vent and really works. I highly recommend this for any cellphone."
