I'm using this attached to my air vent. Love it so far. With the holder all the way open nexus slips in perfectly. Let me know if this makes sense, I drop in the side of the phone (bottom in portrait mode) and then push in the other side of the phone (top in portrait). Fits with my rinkge fusion

Yep. Using this one also, so far it has been working out well.
No vibration as it's a big beast of a mobile or catching volume buttons on these ??
Using this one, I found it in a small store for 2$. Cheapest was best for me.
The picture is from this morning, 30 minutes drive with lots of hops and bumps, with no problems for the beast. I used it also for my N4.

N6 just fits with the Rearth Ringke Fusion Shock Absorption Bumper Premium Hard Case, although the volume down button is covered it isn't pressed by the side grip. Rarely even notice it.
Mounting is solid with little to no vibration and the "one touch" release is nice to have.

Does it block the power and/or volume buttons?
I just received this one but it presses the volume down button. It also doesn't work well in my car, although the charging is excellent.
Looks like this is going to be a common issue.

It certainly seems like a lot of the docks are all exactly the same only rebranded by a different manufacturer, giving only the illusion that there are a lot of choices.

Same here but I put my Universal X-Grip mounted to their flexible mounting post from the passenger seat. Although expensive, I have yet to have had a phone for the over 3 years I have had this setup and had it not work. Would like something with Qi... but with new phones supporting rapid charge, I have a rapid car charger so having to plug in every time is a price to pay to be able to almost charge my phone to 100% in about minutes or less.... here's some links for what I have:

It sure doesn't. There are 2 little nib that the phone actually sits on, and the poser cord fits between them and right into the phone. I will have to check the power buttons. I use an app that has profiles and once I set it to "car", I only use the radio volume to adjust the sound levels. I will look on the way home tonight to give you a definite answer.
So now let's see some while in their cases lol

What's wrong with the iottie that I posted? My N6 + trident case fits snugly into it. Granted if it was slightly bigger it might not, but the trident case is also pretty bulky.

From my experience it amounts to 'trickle charge'. Qi charges at 1amp, and it just about balances out the draw of using the screen say 50% brightness + data + gps. I hear using bluetooth on top of that to stream music + 100% brightness drains more than Qi can charge.

HOLY DASH MOUNT!! You are going to have to use street view instead of the windshield to see where you are. LOL I'm sure there will be better options soon
Hi,
I'm using one similar to that but mine's a vent mount and its pretty awesome i think. The reason I got one of these friction beasts is so that i can use it with my gps and phone. Yours seems to be better than the vent mount because it swivels. Mine doesn't swivel. But overall it works and its a very good multi tasker. I usually have it on landscape and don't use the little prongs. The foam pads are good enough to hold both my phone and gps.
I bought a cheap one from Frys for $15, it has a very similar clamping design but uses a flexible gooseneck and a suction mount. It works well, the friction mount part holds the phone well. I am not a huge fan of the gooseneck though. I cant wait to get back home and start modding on it, I think I can make it much better!
G1 Windshield Mount

This type of mount actually blocks the charge port so you can't charge it while in the car. Kinda a deal killer because GPS uses so much power. Phone will be dead when I get to my destination.
I ordered one of those that said it had 3 clips instead of the 4 but they sent me one with 4. Then the ebay seller, lovelypriceelement, emailed me back saying that the 3 clips one doesn't exist EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS ON THE PAGE THAT THE USB PORT ISN'T BLOCKED!
Don't buy this if you want to charge in the car.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170403618927&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
I wish I remember where i got mine. It took me 3 different ones before i found one i liked, bought them retail....just kept returning them until the 4th was the best (around $25). It has 2 clips that clip onto the vent, and a support arm between the clips that rests again the vent, doesnt move at all and the charge port is completely accessible.

If you could find out where you got that one, that would be great. Looking for a more elegant solution to mount my G1 in my car.
I've seen the vent mount one at Staples but I don't know if it would work in my car. How long are the arms that clip onto the vent. I have a Mazda 6 and my vents are like the one in the middle of this picture:

For those who have used the vent clip mount, do you think that it would mount to the vents just above the radio in that picture? When open they have a curved front and they are a bit deeper than the average vent.

Hey everyone. So I am looking for a car mount for my S2. I have seen a ton of them out there and wondered what your opinions were on some of the ones I have found and out of those or maybe one that you know of is the best.
I do have a Ballistic Case on my phone so its kind of thick. This is the case
I was thinking about getting
Universal Phone Mount Holder for Samsung Galaxy S II (Galaxy S2) Epic 4G Touch Android Smartphone + SumacLife TM Wisdom*Courage Wristband $14.94
Please let me know any feedback that you maybe thinking.
Thanks everyone!

I picked up one of these http://www.exogear.com/products-exomount-car-mount-holder.html it even holds my GFs G1 Droid with a monster silicon case. You can pick them up for <$20 online.
http://www.exogear.com/products-exomount-car-mount-holder.html thats pretty awesome
I decided to pick a mount up from Arkon (http://www.arkon.com/) The one I got particularly is the Mega Grip Flexible version (http://www.arkon.com/Galaxy-S-II/megagrip-galaxy-s-2-flexible-windshield-car-mount.html)
It works pretty well, the legs are adjustable and has a ball joint that allows you to rotate the holster 360 degrees. It also has an adjustable arm (not the bendable arm) to change the vertical angle. The bendable arm is exceptionally stiff, much more than my Kensington mount I got for my 3GS a while back. The suction cup works very well on glass, other surfaces I can't say the same as I've not tried it on them. The only thing that doesn't tickle my fancy is the arm release mechanism... every time I use it it feels like I'm going to break it. My phone fits in without having to adjust this every time so it's not much of a concern for me though.
As for the exogear holder you just linked... I wouldn't mind snagging one of those. I'm always wary of gripping ones that don't support the bottom of the phone... don't want my device falling out at some point... especially when I mount it next to the window.

If you look close at the exogear, you'll see the inside of the "clamp" has red rubber for gripping. I hold my phone in portrait mode all the time and it has yet to slide with gravity.
Glad you found a holder that works for you.

This is a good choice and good price, plus it will supply a Line-Out and power to the phone. I wanted Line-Out feature and ended up making my own cable because I required a universal phone holder.
I have the official Samsung car dock - it is excellent!
@OP Maybe you should hold off of buying it at all. It looks like, next year, we won't be allowed to use our phones in cars while driving.

I've had a Proclip mount system for 8 years now, in 2 cars and with 5 phones now. The universal mount I'd had lasted through an iPhone 3GS, a Galaxy S2, a Nexus 4 and the Nexus 5. Unfortunately it couldn't accommodate the N6, so I purchased on of their larger ones which arrived today. It's pictured here with a naked N6, but will also work with the Spigen case I should be receiving Monday.
This is the one I bought --> http://goo.gl/tA2buI

Thanks for the heads up. I was just thinking about this. I have the smaller universal mount, and it does fit with my Spigen Neo Hybrid, but JUST barely! I plan on getting a beefier case, so I need to get a bigger universal mount.
Thanks!

Wow, I just measured. The Nexus 6 with a Spigen Neo Hybrid is nearly 3.5" wide. The Large Universal mount accomodates up to 3.5" wide. No love for a bigger case on the N6

Be sure to check out some of their other large(r) universal mounts. They have some that'll accommodate larger cases.
Thanks for the heads up. I am in the same boat as you were in. Love the proclip and its worked on the last 3 phones I have had but N6 is just to wide for it.
I read on another thread that they are releasing a N6 specific model but would much rather just get this instead of waiting 2-3 months for it to come out.
Never had an proclip, could somebody explain how they work? I see on their site they have custom dash mounts for specific cars but can't figure out how the phone mount fits to the dash mount. Also, can it be easily taken out with 1 hand once all set up?
The phone mount screws into the car mount. I have also used their mounts for years but always the phone specific model that's hard wired. I like that it just pop out in and it charges no cord to plug in before I put it in the holder.
So it's is a 1 handed operation? I like the ram X mount but needing to use 2 hands is a drawback.
I have a universal phone mount attached to a car mount that attaches to the a-pillar of my driver's side. its easy one-handed to pop my phone in or out. Here are stock pictures of what I use:
I bought the proclip for my Garmin a few years back. It is awesome. Might have to look at one for my N6.

Its basically 2 parts. The car specific mount and then the phone mount. If you switch phones you can just get a new phone mount witch screws to your already in place car mount.
They are a bit more expensive but are rock solid and the mounts are custom designed for each car model.
If you switch holders from car to car like I do, their locking move clip system is awesome http://www.proclipusa.com/accessories/locking-move-clips/locking-move-clip-accessories.aspx
I had the same problem - long time ProClip user whose universal mount used for the Nexus 5 wasn't big enough to hold the new Nexus 6. I just took the holster apart, removed the swivel component that limits how wide the holster arms can expand, stuck it back with super glue, filed the edges and put it all back together. It works
They are running a sale right now too. Trying to decide if I should get the universal one or the Note 4 holder. N6 holder doesn't sound like it will be out for at least another month.
20% off with promo code 20THANKS
Ends Monday.
So with the universal mounts you don't get forward/backward movement of the phone? Do the sides squeeze enough to hold it in place or something even though the phone may be thinner than the slot in the mount?

There is a little bit of movement (all of my phones have had some in their universal mounts), but it's still held firmly and doesn't move on it's own. With my Spigen Perfect-fit case it's actually a great fit.

I don't have the phone, the mount, or the charger, so, no.
But according to the specs of all three, there is enough room. However, there may be a problem with the diameter of the charger. It may be slightly too large for the prongs of the mount to close all the way. That could probably be fixed by putting a little padding on the prongs, though.

not seen an app for this, but I've been extremely impressed with the Choetech redesigned one. Search Amazon for B00C40OG22 as I can't post outside links.
A whole lot cheaper than most the other ones but has worked perfectly so far, easy to position about 1/3 bottom of the phone.
I just got the Choetech Stadium 3 coil and it works great so far.
Wow, I guess it's been a while since I looked at qi chargers because these are all < half the price I remember.
Yea, no kidding. Last time I looked the prices were to much for me to bother. lol

I use the Choe and a Nilikin. Had them for a while. The Nilikin doesn't charge sideways if the phone has a thick case and it will not line up the coils. Friend has a huge case and mine is not so big. Don't know about the in between sizes.
Got my Choe Stadium yesterday. Working great so far, even with two wraps and a Ringke Fusion case. At first I thought it was charging slower than it was draining, but decided to leave on while I slept to see. Charged to full np. Not hot or anything.
I don't seem to get almost any variation in charge speed by placement according to Ampere.
Did yours come in a box labeled "UPGRADED" on it? Didn't see a mention of it on the page (might have just missed it), and was just curious.
I just received this today. It works great and you can charge wirelessly on the go or with usb.

The CHOE upgraded and CHOE stadium are different models. I ordered from amazon and they sent me the wrong one so I'm returning it. The CHOE upgraded is a square and has only 1 coil. While the CHOE stadium is a rectangle and has 3 coils.

I actually looked it up after I posted that. Forgot to update.
It is the Stadium, but apparently a newer version. (T511 was the old one I think, from a few years ago)
"T513 QI Compliance UPGRADED VERSION" is what's on the box, as well as the CHOE Stadium stuff on the back sticker/back of the (rectangle)charger.

That is a very good charger for the money. My wife has been using one for a few months and I recently picked one up to modify it for use on my ProClip car mount. Works great. I removed the case and mounted the PCB directly to the mount with 4 small bolts that go through 4 convenient holes in the circuit board then cut the lower portion of the rear case off so the remaining bit attaches to the top to cover the back of the PCB. I have only been using it for a few days but so far it has worked as expected. Looks pretty 'factory' too.
Retails here for ~65USD.

Disclaimer: I was not paid for this review. I did not get this for free but I did get a little discount from a coupon code I had lol.
I was in the the market for a wireless car charger. I have had one in the past, but the location of my Nexus 6 coil was too located to low for it. So my quest to get the perfect one was on! Upon reviews and forums, I was looking at both the iottie and TYLT wireless car chargers. I was initially leaning towards the TYLT one, but the proprietary plug was the deal breaker for me. I didnt need yet another different cable running in my truck. I already have my cool flux capacitor cig charger in place and would hate to lose it! In any case, I then moved my research to the iottie ones. I have heard decent things and first looked at the iottie flex wireless car charger. This looked like the one! But, I saw there were two versions. The flex and the one touch one. What geared me towards the one Easy One Touch version was that of the many MANY ways you can angle and telescope the mount to view your phone. Being having a heavy and big Nexus 6, I liked the various sizes it can accommodate.
When receiving it, I played with all the various gears and levers and screws and found that that this was very well thought out. However, I cant figure out why they put the suction lever to activate the suction cup was underneath the main arm. But its out of the way so thats one thing I guess. The suction cup is clear but has that SUPER suction adhesive that you can rinse off to reconsitute the adhesive, similar to the airdock mounts and various other iottie products use. This sucker is strong! The charger comes with a plate that has more of this sticky suction cups but I already have one mounted so I used that one. Good back up though.
Another fantastic thing is how you insert and remove the phone from the charger. This is the first mount I have ever used that when you put in the phone to charge, you slide it into the back button that snaps the sides in and will lock into place when stops. Awesome. And to remove, simply cup your hand like you are to remove the device and press the two button/levers on the side and pinch together to release into your hand. No issue at all. I am using a Spigen Ultra hybrid case and the Nexus 6 JUST BARELY FITS to lock into place. With the adjustable chin, it is just perfect.
Oh was it a proprietary cable? NOPE, good ol micro usb! Love it even more!
Any questions? Ask away!
I have the iOttie One Touch XL and I love it, but now that I have a Supcase Bettle case on it, it barely fits anymore. I measured my phone with the case on it and is now 3.5" wide. The one you reviewed lists as 3.3" wide. Do you have your phone in a case? If so, which one and do you have any issues getting it to fit?

I have the Spigen Ultra hybrid in gunmetal and it just fits. And no issues getting it in and out. And stays sturdy. I did say so in the review. I had to re-read it lol.
Thanks for the quick reply. Might have to reconsider this one if it BARELY fits. Probably just like how it fits into my iOttie XL mount right now.

Have you tried the iOttie Easy Flex Wireless one?
http://www.shopandroid.com/iottie-easy-flex-wireless-qi-standard-charging-car-mount/3A78A17740.htm
Looks like it closes to the max of 3.5 inches where the XL fits to 3.3.
I don't know, the problem with the Easy Flex Wireless is that the mount is so short, so hanging it off the windshield might make it hard to reach.
