Motorola Car Mount for Droid User Reviews

Works Great

User: Tim xof, Feb 11, 2011

Pros: Good Price, works great
Cons: None, really

I really like this mount. It works well in all conditions. My one minor complaint is that the camera is covered. I removed some material from the dock so the camera was exposed and I could use my droid as a dash cam when Im driving.

Modified for use as dash cam.

Pros: holds phone secure, goes into navigation mode automaticaly when snaped in.
Cons: finding windshield space that dosent block vision.

Works great for designed pourpose. Even better as a dash cam if you carefuly drill a hole for the camera lense. You can also dash mount and turn it around to catch the kids on camera to see who did what.

Is what it is.

Pros: Sturdy enough, holds the phone tightly, no issues.
Cons: -

Does exactly what its designed to do. Not much to be said really, it works.

Most awesome mount!

User: Dale Burke, Jun 28, 2010

Pros: Very stable, tight joints, good suction, stays on windshield.
Cons: Mount blocks camera, power cord pulls down on phone.

IMHO this is THE best mount I have ever owned. It is even better than my old TomTom mount. Thinking of buying another one for my other car.

Just What I Needed

User: Hal Humbert, Feb 28, 2010

Pros: Made for the Droid so it fits perfectly and there are no worries about it slipping out. Its easy to release the phone from the holder. Its easily adjustable to suit my field of vision. The Droid automatically goes into "car mode" when its put into the hol
Cons: I have to remove the case every time I put the phone in the car mount.

Im glad I started with this mount kit- it makes more sense to me to go with a product thats designed for my Droid.

Sturdy, good quality car mount

User: Douglas KuddlKat, Jan 29, 2010

Pros: Good construction. Good fit. Allows for both portrait and landscape positions.
Cons: Ball joint could be tighter.

Overall, I really like it. I wanted to modify it to allow for the camera to be uncovered, but it may weaken that corner as it isnt one fully solid piece. The fit is perfect on a bare DROID. The snap/release is excellent (plastic thinned to allow for slight flexibility) even in below freezing temperatures. I would liked to have seen some kind of clip that would provide strain relief for a power cord so it wouldnt be pulling down on the connector.

Great car accessory!

Pros: tight joints, comes with charger
Cons: built-in power plug would be great

Solid design, unlike cheap car holders, the joints are tight, theres minimal shaking, even with my cars stiff suspension.

One thing not advertized here, it comes with a rapid car charger too, I almost bought an extra one! But, it would have been perfect if the power plug were integrated into the dock, like Seidos. No biggie, I zip tied the cord to the arm of the dock, so its always convenient.

Time to throw my Garmin GPS away! :D

Car Mount Wons Stay Attached In Heat

User: Dana Franks, Aug 4, 2010

Pros: Its wonderfully useful and convinent when its mounted
Cons: As soon as the weather turned warm, it started falling off

I love this mount in almost every way. However, I bought the phone in February and had absolutely no problems until the temp outside got warmer. Suddenly, the adhesive attaching the mount started coming unglued and I would get to my car in the morning to find the mount fallen off the windshield. Went to a Verizon dealer and they gave me another adhesive circle. That lasted about a month and started falling off again. Not sure what I can do on my end to fix this, but its annoying and also sometimes hard to get a GPS signal without it mounted.

doesnt fit if using protective casing

User: Jen Rotteveel, May 18, 2010

This mount works great IF you do not have a protective casing on your motorola droid. I have a snap-on rubberized casing on my droid, and the extra thickness added to the edges and back of the phone prevent it from fitting into the bracket of the car mount. I will have to either buy a universal adjustable-grip style of mount, or fashion my own from some scrap acrylic.

Junk!

User: James Mason, Nov 6, 2010

Pros: mounts on the windshield nicely.
Cons: Poorly designed

The cheap plastic clip that holds the Droid in, broke in about 2 months! The CL charger that came with it, shorted out in about 6 weeks. very crappy, and not cheap!
