I liked the CD slot mounted holder. Firm mount and good viewing position. A caution, though. After using a few times my CD player started malfunctioning. The screen would start flashing "loading CD" even though I wasn't trying to use the holder or load a CD.
Can this hold a phone that's thick? The thing is, I always have to take my phone out to put in one of these things because I have attached to my cover, one of those rubber credit card holders. It's too thick. Let me know.
This one also comes with a really nice air vent adapter. It has a wing nut on the back so you can tighten on to your air vent so it won't fall off. It's really nice!
I wish the companies would use metal this company called mercury used metal for the whole phone mount the only problem was the part that connects to the vent was all plastic and gave out from there but it lasted a whole year longer than any other phone mount i ever had
Hi all I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max with the external battery case and what Im after is a phone mount that is wide enough to fit my phone in with the external battery case have you any ideas what I can use Thanks
Coincidence or not I was just looking at this mount on Amazon then I see your video on here....Question does it have wireless charging and does it come with a cord or do you have to use your own ???? I read something in the Amazon description that it has a reserved charging but I think they just mean that it has space to plug your own charger...I bought 2 different brands one at Autozone and one Wal-Mart this past weekend that had built in wireless charging and had to return them the same day cause they were not charging correctly....
Not does not have wires charging. It just has a place on the bottom for the cord will go so the phone is not sitting on the charger in the cradle. I really like it for both the CD and vent mounts.
@@HobartsReviews Thanks I kinda thought so....I bought and had a Kenwood DMX9707S installed last Saturday....Unfortunately it does not play Cds or DVDs so I will probably use the air vent....
It comes with a really good air vent clip. You should have an air vent right? It's one of the best in my opinion. It has a wing but to keep it closed so it doesn't fall off.
He said you have to take out the cd....I don't think you wanna hit the eject with a cd and the mount in it....I imagine the mount might not even fit with a cd in it anyways....Who still even uses cds ???? I just had a KENWOOD DMX9707S installed on Saturday with Apple Play and Android Auto....It has screen mirroring too....No more CD or DVD slots on that model....
Have you tried the air vent attachment? I like it better than the CD mount. It has a wing nut on the back so you can tighten down on your vent so it doesn't fall off.
Raeku, because I read a lot of the reviews and watched videos on the others and there was more bad than good. I understand people like to complain so I took those out of my equation. I looked at real problems people were having and it seemed like there was some quality issues with a lot of the popular brands. When I found this one and started reading the reviews everybody seemed to like it. It held up for a while with no issues, everything stayed working over time. So after several weeks of research I kept coming back to this one because the comments and the reviews were great compared to the others. Before I buy something I do a lot of research. Usually weeks to up to month before I make a decision. I read customer reviews, I read online reviews from companies and watch a lot of TH-cam videos before I make a decision. At the end of the day this one won lol.
I've played with them all. NOTHING beats the CD mount. Nothing even comes close, and it's high enough for GPS to work. The problem is a lot of cars don't have CD players anymore. Then it's air vent or suction cup on windshield. All cars have a windshield but many do not have usable vents. Most round vents will not work for example. A problem with the cup holder ones is it is too low to get a good GPS signal.
Depends on what phone you have. It is open on the bottom so that you can plug it into the power but depending on where you are headphone jack is it may or may not work. It's very open on the bottom if that's where it is.
Me gustó mucho la explicación con todos sus detalles. Me convenció y voy a comprarlo para mi Beetle 2016. Ya he comprado otros que no han servido. Muy agradecida.
Nice review 👍 I have the Cars 2 Apps CD mount. It's designed to hold a phone and iPad 9.7" Love have a 9.7" display on my dashboard. A 9.7" GPS is Great!
Do you have air vents? Lol....I am a big fan of their air vent attachments. One comes with this I believe. They have a wing but to tighten so it won't fall off.

Looking at the installation method from the company’s Amazon site, it looks like you installed the CD slot one upside down in your video.
I may have but it worked for me. Also the Chinese sometimes get their images mixed up so maybe that's happening as well.

Let me know.
Bought it on Amazon but it was a bad choice. It kept falling off and it keeps loosing ultimately and it also spread my cd player and left gap.
Sorry to hear that. Worked great for me!
Sounds like you over tighten it.
Extremely high quality review, you've earned my sub. Keep making great content!
Thanks Anwar!
I have a Honda Fit 2019 and it’s difficult finding where to put my phone or finding a phone holder for it. And it doesn’t have a CD player in it?
This one also comes with a really nice air vent adapter. It has a wing nut on the back so you can tighten on to your air vent so it won't fall off. It's really nice!
Does sit work with a thick wallet case ?
Not sure... haven't tried it. It may. The sides are pretty thick. 👍
The CD mount is horrible it vibrates so much you can't even see what's on the screen also it gives you a headache
Thanks for the review. I would have loved to have seen how stable the phone stays or does not stay while driving.

Would the holder get too hot and melt in Palm Springs?
It shouldn't as I live in south Florida and it's fine. 😀
Thanks! Is the upgrade better? But I guess it doesn't have the CD option, right?

But what if you don't have a CD player in your car?

Would you mind doing some extended research for science?
You have to get the cd out or you can still play cd music while the mount is set?
He said you have to take out the cd....I don't think you wanna hit the eject with a cd and the mount in it....I imagine the mount might not even fit with a cd in it anyways....Who still even uses cds ????

Where do you purchase it from? And does it work with aux cable. My phone aux cable is under my phone on the bottom.
Link in the description.😉 And yes it has a cut off for the code in the bottom.
I got one and it’s a fight to keep it in. I hate it. The clips that are supposed to stay inside the CD player doesn’t.

Great review, but I do wonder why you went with Vicseed specifically over other CD fit mounts such as iOttie

Agree, Agree, 👍
i don't have a cd player
Thank you for the review!
Anytime Muneeb!
Is it possible to plug the aux cable (in the headphone socket) while the phone sits inside this mobile holder.
Depends on what phone you have. It is open on the bottom so that you can plug it into the power but depending on where you are headphone jack is it may or may not work. It's very open on the bottom if that's where it is.
Great detailed video, thanks 😊
No problem!
love the work you have put in, helpful and easy to watch

Bruh.. my car doesn't have CD player, any recommendations?

May 2020 and still there are cars with CD players??? well bad research really....
These can’t support heavy phones
It supported my galaxy S10+ and my Pixel 6 pro just fine.
No real world tests

Thank you!
