Want to mount my iPhone on side of center console. How's the suction?

It works great on my windshield. There is an adhesive pad included with the kit and it may be better to use that than suction if you are mountng on the console. Have to say, I like having my phone up on my windshield as its very easy to glance at it while driving. When I use my phone in my husbands car, I have to look down on the console and I prefer having the phone mounted on the windshield.

I'm using 2 feet and is great. It mostly depends on how far is the stereo from wherever you're gonna place the phone, and how far away you wanna be able to pull it. In my case the cup holders are seating about a feet away from the stereo (in a straight line) and I only move it towards myself (never to the back).

The section of my dashboard that I have it on is smooth but the grip with the jelly thing on the bottom is so strong that I think it would. When I went to reposition the mount, it was hard getting it to unstick.

It's fairly long. It's a cord, so you have plenty of room to work with. I have the cord plugged in by the gear shift and my iphone/otterbox is sitting on my dashboard. I even have enough cord to clip it to the side, away from all the console buttons. It's a little unsightly, but gets the job done.

I used it with an iphone which is 2.5 inches wide. At 1.5 inches wide, using it with your phone inserted the long way (turned 90°) may be right for you. Device worked fine. I moved and haven't seen it since. Now I use the suction-cup type. It works fine, too. The Naztech is easier to manage while driving if changes are required.

I have a 5S and a lifeproof case and this works great on my golf cart. It has only lost suction once in 3 months but a clean wipe of a cloth and reset it's good to go.

Well the mount has a sticky suction so is reusable and has a latch to compress the air to keep the suction to dashboard together

I am using it for my Galaxy note 3 and its holding my phone pretty good. May add my phone has the extended battery and still holds pretty well. The suction only works on the windshield not on the dashboard.

I leave it in place, but it is fairly easy to move and removable by turning releasing knob. The instructions included are accurate. The gel suction cup sticks well to my Honda Element's textured dash, surface must be clean, dust free, flat and u can clean and re clean gel pad with water to renew maximum suction to dash. It requires two hands to place the phone, l-pod on it and has fairly good swivel capability. It has stayed in place well for me, I have had it for 4 months. I like it.

Check dimensions of Iphone 5 to 5C.... This mount/case is not very stable (very shaky) when used for auto racing. Also the touchscreen portions bows-out when the case get hot and makes navigating on the screen pretty difficult. I am not sure your application or if you will have these issues......

I like it better than the vent mount which is what I had before. I have have a 5 and it works fine with the case on.

I bought one for my son and it was mailed to another state. My son, a techy, is happy with it. I read the advertisement and it states it is also windshield mount. Also, from the available pictures, I can see that the phone holder is ball mount, therefore, it can be moved 360 degrees for viewing. The advertisement states it comes with 3M sticky tape for surfaces not perfectly flat - so you can put the tape on a flat surface, mount the rubber gripper, then mount the suction clip device holder. I think you would be safe with this purchase.

No I put the mount on top of the dash just right of center. Extend the arm out and down, so when I put my ipad 2 in it, it sits just below of the dash. Hope that helps.Dave

Yes....you are going to love the functionality of this item. It's like a clamp and holds your device in place and the cord hangs loosely next to it. It stays on the dashboard and does not slip.......I am so happy i found this item and highly recommend it.

Yup.. It mounts really well on the dashboard and swivel is fine. Swivel might be bit hard at start. So far the product has worked great for me. No complaints.

It swivels, not a great deal, but enough to be able to see it when driving which is the main reason I bought it. I'm using an iPhone 5, but it gets very wide, so I'd be surprised if it didn't hold the S4 in the Otter. Its worth a try.

I went ahead and bought the mount. It works fine with the bumpers on my i4. In fact, I have to say I prefer it to the original Satechi mount I used for my 3Gs previously. I recommend it, for what that's worth.
