It's OK. It does the job for the most part, however it is not secured well in the power socket and when you make turn faster than 10 mph it rotates to the side and falls out. I have to constantly make sure it is plugged in and re-adjust it. Not a convenient thing to do when driving..It is a rare occasion that I buy something from Amazon that doesn't work out. This one is a dud. I have a Samsung Galaxy S3. I have tried every position that I can get the holder in and it is not strong enough to hold my phone upright. It stays upright for a while, but then it slowly moves (rotates) downward. But, that's not the only problem. In an attempt to give it some stability, they added some rubber gaskets to beef up the part that goes into the charger hole (sorry for that technical description). While that seemed like a good design choice to me, what it does is interfere with the charging connection. Blue light on, off, on, off, etc. Every time it makes and then breaks the connection, the Galaxy gives you a little beep. I thought at first that I had screwed up a setting on the phone it sounded like an alarm going off. I guess if your car charger is positioned exactly right you will be able to get the phone rest upright on a flat surface. I have a Lincoln MKZ and a Dodge Ram 1500, the holder doesn't work for either.I purchased this for use in my car (Chevy Malibu) which has a plug that is almost horizontal. The flexible neck bends easily to hold the phone vertically, and the connection is plenty strong to hold the phone exactly where I need it. Most of the time I use it as a mount, but when needed I have expandable USB cables to plug in for power. There is a blue LED on the base which lights up when the mount is inserted enough for power. It holds the phone just fine even when it is not inserted enough to trigger the power.
The mount easily adjusts to hold either my Samsung Galaxy S3 and my wife's iPhone 4S.
My only complaint is the that the universal mount is a little thick on the bottom corners. This makes is a challenge to tap the 'back' arrow on the Galaxy S3. If not for this minor issue (which is not an issue with the iPhone) I would give it a 5 star rating.Not worth the money, trust me. Why? Because it's poorly designed, you risk damaging your phone using this. It keeps on falling out, and won't stay still when you make a turn. There is no way I would trust this product to hold a $600 phone.The car charger phone mount worked for a few days but the phone won't stay in position. Seems top heavy and I have a galaxy phone that is very light. It won't stay in the power outlet and the charger then is disconnected. Very dissapointed.
