    Magnetic Mount, WizGear Universal Twist-Lock Air Vent Magnetic Car Mount Holder Cell Phones Mini Tablets Fast Swift-snap Technology (Twist Lock)

    • .. Crimps onto air vent (not likely to overheat with sun on it if AC is running)2 adhesive metal plates (1 large 1 small)
    • The magnet component easily clamped onto one of my air vents and the thin metal plate fit with no problem under the backside of my phone case
    • best wiz gear for those who have different air vent sizes
    • Too wide for my air vents that has both horizontal and vertical bars
    • Clamps right on to the air vent pretty securely
    • Works great in my 13' CRV but make sure you really clamp down the wing-nut looking part and it is heavy so your air vent will be held in a downward position
    • Others fall off of air vents
    • So flexible to fix it to your car's air vent at any angle you wish
    • Toyota Corolla and air vent is directed to the floor after I place this gear
    • Addition to review: I'm adding a 5th star because of the excellent customer service experience I had with the company after the clamp piece that attaches to the air vent broke
    • It attaches to the air vent and because of the weight of the phone, the vent droops down
    • Other swiveling models didn't last due to the glue loosening between the part that attaches to the air vent and the magnet
    • When I put this mount on my air vent with or without my phone connected to it, it makes my air vent move down and not able to get AC or heat.
    • It attaches very well to my car's air vent.
    • the weight of the phone pulls down the air vent and then your display is looking down and you can not see the phone properly
    • I was really excited to get this feeling it would hold better than the ones that are rubber that slide onto the air vents.
    • Value purchase since you receive a variety of magnets for your smartphone and the mount has a universal fit to air vents.
    • It is easy to tight down onto my car air vent and it also tightens the swivel on the face of the holder so that it holds my phone firmly at the angle I choose
    • I tried few different air vent mount
    • However, like others have reported, the part that clamps onto the air vent is not tight enough and snaps off when tightened too much
    • The only negative I have found is that because it is so close to the air vent, any hot air coming from that vent will also heat up your phone which of course could be a concern.
    • Works great in my Mini Cooper which has air vents that are somewhat non-standard so typical clip-on models don't hold as well.
    • Slides right off air vents
    • Because the fins on my air vent adjust, I just stuck a small water bottle cap under the mount and it works perfectly.
    • It can be tightly clamped onto an air vent blade and have its magnetic base adjusted to the proper angle for viewing
    • Simple design, easy to figure out and use, not ugly, clamps well on to air vent, and holds my phone (smaller 5 inch screen phone and GPS) securely
    • so I like that it's compact in nature and the grip arms that tightly grab the air vent louvre
    • Sticking this on the air vent doesn’t work
    • Latching on air-vent and tighten the screw takes some effort
    • I had high hopes for this product since I love the one that clips to the air vent.
    • Also, I like that the clip is adjustable so that you can determine how tight you want it secured on your air vent, especially given the differences in car air vents
    • Did not fit into my air vent
    • The only complain it that it blocks the air vent.
    • I like the "active" clamp mechanism that tightly squeezes the fin of an air vent
    • I prefer the twist-lock version of this rather than the clip-on version because I don't like it when my phone is too close to the air vent
    • Found a well located ledge to rest the phone on just below the air vent.
    • The lever allows me to clamp the device onto the air vent, and it stays
    • but the clip is too big to fit in the air vent on that position.
    • Before this mount, I had a spring bracket which also connected to air vents but that was annoying since it wasn't easy to attach and detach the phone.
    • Air vent mounts can only do so much, but they're portable and easy to take on/off quickly
    • I use it on a 2011 Prius and it clips in perfectly on the air vent.
    • so I recommend positioning the magnet first, then tightening it to the air vent second.4
    • Being able to screw the mount onto the air vent means it doesn't gradually lose its grip and fall off, as often happens with vent-mounted gadgets
    • The clamp was not strong enough to maintain the phone on the thick air vent.
    • I tried turning the clip the other way so that when it's on the air vent, it doesn't go
    • The twist-lock Air Vent mount was purchased for my boat which has a solid piece of aluminum to clamp onto works great
    • I thought this one would be easier to clamp onto my air vents, but the prongs are too long for my type of vents
    • Also the air vents in my car are not in the most ideal spot for a cell phone holder.
    • I use this with my 2015 Acura TLX and it fits great on the air vent.
    • A magnetic mount for a cell phone that clips onto the air vent in the car
    • This has worked out very well with my iPhone 7-plus in a Chevy Suburban air vent
    • I can see the phone at better angles because each car has different air vent angles
    • (Not the magnet - which is very strong and the same on both versions) but since the attachment was just a slit that slid on to the air vent
    • This mount is designed to grip your air vents but it slipped off constantly and when I tried to apply enough tension for it stay, it cracked.
    • The magnet works well to hold the phone to this, but at least on my car, I cannot get this to stop slipping off the small air vents
    • with this thing I was able to use the air vent as a place to clip my phone, and not do any permanent damage
    • You need to design some kind of clamp that will hold good on the air vent and some of the air vent has a louver so we can't really cook it on the air vent look at all the air vent in the car
    • Once you put this on air vent, it does not fall off easily
    • It adjusts to almost any car air vent and holds in place very tight and securely
    • However, the air vents in my Toyota Prius are fairly loose and the weight of the WizGear pulls the vent down when I place my iPhone 6+ on it
    • The magnet works very well but the clip falls off every day from the air vent
    • I placed it in the air vent as shown in the video
    • The air vent moves freely, and so does this clip
    • Easy to install and tighten to air vents
    • Twist lock is holding air vent very tight.
    • The only thing I would mention (and this is nothing to do with the holder itself), is that my car's air vent is not designed to hold weight.
    • doesn't stay on the air vent well
    • I have vertical air vents, and this clamp is the only one that works
    • I also don’t like how it blocks the air vent, I thought it wouldn’t affect the air flow too much, but after using it, I decided it wasn’t the best decision.
    • It doesn't look intrusive like previous phone holders that clip to air vents.
    • By nature of design, the overall stability depends on how well the air vents in your car stay put, they may flip around and with that, move the phone somewhat, but I found this very useful
    • I like that it has an adjustable clamp to really grip the air vent,way better than the slipon type that normally fall off frequently.
    • the magnet head could have been mounted just a little further from the air vent
    • I wonder how most other simple inserts work at all; I'm under the assumption that they will come out of the air vent attached to the phone
    • Be wary, though, if your car's air vents aren't strong and can be adjusted with your finger to a certain position, this device as well as other air vent mounts won't work very well
    • this works perfectly as it easily attached to the air vent..great product, great value.
    • +, the weight seems to pull it off my air vent when I grab my phone or falls to the ground with my phone attached.
    • I have used both the, new older one that goes in flat in the air vent, and this one that sticks out
    • I will say that the best use of this is if you put it on the last row of your air vent so that it doesn’t move (versus putting it anywhere higher), or if you have stiffer vents
    • Also my car's air vents are too flimsy to hold the weight of this thing and my phone
    • Update review -the clip broke not even worth it!After using for few months the mount that hooks on to the air vent came really loose.
    • However, since then WizGear has contacted me and sent me an updated version of their product which is awesome and secures to my car air vent perfectly
    • It attaches easily and securely to the air vent and doesn't interfere with my use of the air conditioning.
    • Worked okay, but once we started using it, I realized it's not great to block an air vent in the summer
    • The twist-lock is fantastic as it grips my air vent
    • The locking clip makes it perfect for switching between vehicles and for different air vent configurations.
    • That wing nut thing, seriously has to be tight, so tight I may be concerned with the luver on the air vent
    • This vent clip did the trick and without blocking the air vent
    • The vents on my 2009 Escape are easily adjustable, so putting this device on while adding my Samsung S7 Edge phone was too much weight and shifted the air vents down every time, which is of course annoying in the summer when you want the A/C to be on you at all times
    • The Wizgear is clamped on your air vent on the dash
    • I had the previous version that just inserted in air vent, due to having to readjust, the silicone cover broke, exposing metallic bracket
    • I could just insert this on to my air vent and attach my phone with ease and because it is magnetic so you don't have to worry about
    • I couldn't remove the magnet from my phone cover so wanted to try this item and really like that it is adjustable and securely tightens to my air vent!
    • This can adjust to any car air vent securely and not run the risk of snapping of a piece
    • Distance from air vent didn't block air too much.
    • this works perfectly as it easily attached to the air vent..great product, great value.
    • Be wary, though, if your car's air vents aren't strong and can be adjusted with your finger to a certain position, this device as well as other air vent mounts won't work very well
    • it's cheap and an air vent mount
    • I have to take it off the air vent in order to get AC or heat.
    • However, the air vents in my Toyota Prius are fairly loose and the weight of the WizGear pulls the vent down when I place my iPhone 6+ on it
    • Holds my phone very securely and works well in my air vent
    • Weak magnet and clip too large for my air vents
    • best holder for air vent from i ever had !
    • By nature of design, the overall stability depends on how well the air vents in your car stay put, they may flip around and with that, move the phone somewhat, but I found this very useful
    • Works exactly as it should and has no problem holding my phone (although one corner slightly rests against the radio wall).
    • Find that because the clamp does not close parallel but closes on an angle I was limited as to where I could install it so that it wouldn't slip
    • It's a LOT smaller than the original mount too which I like as it makes room for other things in my case.
    • A little disappointed with this as with
    • Purchased twice, shame on me, both broke as it was being tightened.
    • Holds phone securely and allows the A/C vent to work as it should.
    • This usually doesn't occur with WizGear products, so im genuinely confused as to why it simply fell apart
    • Worked exactly as I had hoped.
    • i have an HTC m8 with sturdy and light i might add case.i upgraded to
