The Best Car Phone Mount

Wait 5 sec.

There are few things more annoying than missing an exit when you’re driving on the highway.Figuring out a new route is easy if your car has a built-in dashboard display with a maps app. But if you don’t have a display, it becomes more perilous. Your phone might be tucked in a pocket or cupholder, and pulling it out while driving is unsafe.Mounting your phone in view (and in reach) can help you avoid situations like this, while keeping your eyes safely on the road. With a great car phone mount, you’ll also never have to wait out a song that doesn’t match your mood or fumble in the cupholder to answer a call.I drove more than 500 miles testing 17 car phone mounts and arrived at four picks, with magnetic and tension arm options for air vents and dashboards, depending on what fits your car best.
