Phone Holder – for: 2014-2020 A3, S3, RS3, e- Tron (8V) – Low-Profile Magnetic Mount

The product is as described. I didn't know exactly how it would install and didn't pay much attention or dig very deep. It fit my car; I needed a magnetic holder for my phone; the price was right, so I pulled the trigger. If you are reading this wondering how it installs, it is basically tool-free. I used a small knife to help pull out the vents. Yes, they pull out , exactly like the instructions say they do. They are in there, so some force may be necessary but not so much that you will damage anything. I like the fact that they are snug. After both vents are out, you wrap this thing around both vents, run it all the way up to the vent tops, and push back in. It is super sharp, super tight, and an excellent fit for my phone. I couldn't be happier. A++++++++ 10++++++

I have been struggling on looking for the best magnetic car mount for my car. My car has unique curve on its dashboard and the surface is coarse. I bought probably five different adhesive mounts, even uses 3M dual sided tape, but they keep on peeling during hot summer days.This product is just plain stable since it uses mechanical connection with the airconditioner exhaust. It is easy to install, the magnet is strong, it comes with 2 metal plates with adhesive.What I did in my case is I attach the circular metal plate at the back of Apple's MagSafe Charger so I can charge my iPhone at the same time. You can attach the MagSafe Charger directly without adding plate but it is stronger with real iron plate.Note: Make sure you pick the right model as most of the complaints I saw are related to mismatch sizes. The rest should be perfect!

Really well engineered and attractive phone mount option for my A3 8V. Easy install. Strong hold. Looks almost like a factory feature. Couldn’t be happier with this product.

The mount is easy to install, and the strong magnets keep your phone securely in place while driving. The holder is designed to be mounted on the dash, which provides easy access to your phone without blocking your view of the road. Additionally, the mount is adjustable, allowing you to position your phone at the perfect angle for your needs. Overall, the Clearmounts Phone Holder is a great product that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and stylish phone mount for their Audi.

You get exactly what you pay for an expect with this. It is a durable product that I've used every day for the past few months with zero issues. It arrived fast and neat. It was pretty easy to install (directions included were easy to follow). The only trouble installing was getting the vents out but hey, they aren't supposed to just pop out without a little elbow grease. The whole thing took me about 5 minutes. I feel like this product will last a very long time.

I purchased this product a week ago and installed the magnetic mount. Fully tightened it was not stable compared to the clamp style mount which was stable. There is a significant difference in the "socket" dimensions of the clamp style phone mount that allows it to work better. The manufacturer knows this as they quickly responded to my emails containing pictures and video. My advise is the magnetic phone mount option wont work unless you wrap the ball socket with duct tape to create more friction which gives more clamping force.

I ordered two of these and the seller only sent one. After numerous attempts to contact Amazon had to finally refund me. Buyer beware!The product is ok. Works as expected.

I recently purchased an Audi A3 e-tron, and all of the usual ways I attached my phone to my old Subaru did not work at all. I saw this mount, and it looked great, but I had a few concerns:1. I was concerned that it would be difficult to install. Not at all. The vents on the A3 slide out with some (firm) coaxing, and they are clearly meant to do that. The rings on the mount are then held by the vents as you slide them back in, and the mount itself looks like it was meant to be in the car from the beginning.2. Would it work with my case? Not having had a magnetic phone holder before, I wasn't sure that I would be able to continue to use the case that I like with this mount (it wasn't clear how the metal plate for the mount installed onto your phone). As most people who have used magnetic mounts before probably already knew, these types of mounts come thin metal plates which are thin enough to slip into the back of your case, and then your case of choice works with this magnetic mount.3. Would the magnet cause odd behavior with my phone? Nope. The GPS works fine (it isn't affected by a magnet) as do all the related map, phone and data functions. The compass doesn't work properly (I just did one little test), but since I don't really use it driving in the car, no big deal.Overall, I am very pleased, and given there were so few reviews (one of the other reasons I hesitated before buying it), I felt it really needed more reviews - so here is mine.
