I purchased this for my Droid X. The X fits allowing access to the usb port for charging. The camera sits above the mount so you can use it to shoot video while driving. The only negative comment I have with this product is the vent mount. In both of my vehicles (Taurus and Siena), the clips really don't hold all that well allowing the whole mount to move with the additional weight of the Droid. Further, trying to use the phone requires holding it steady first. A quick and easy solution was to add a small piece of rubber tubing to each plastic clip. I picked this up at Ace for < .50. The vent mount is now rock solid, like the windshield mount.
I prefer the vent mount as the Droid X has an issue with heat. This keeps the phone out of the window and allows the AC to blow across it when on.

With the large screen of the Evo, I finally ditched my Garmin, and I'm using my phone as a GPS. This mount is perfect for the phone. You can adjust the bottom supports so they don't get in the way of the charge port. Also, the side arms hold the phone securely without getting in the way of the volume rocker.
The build quality of this mount is very impressive for the price! The plastic feels solid, not flimsy, and the suction cup is stronger and larger than the one that came with my Garmin. I was concerned about this, as I didn't want to risk my new phone in something that wouldn't hold it right. But after trying it out, I'm very pleased with how snugly the mount grips the phone. It's not going anywhere.
I like this mount so much that I came back to order one for my other car (only to find that they're now back-ordered).
One thing -- the vent mount doesn't hold very tight on my car, so that I don't feel comfortable using it. Maybe it's my particular type of vent (it's an old, old car), or maybe I'm not installing it right. However, the windshield mount is excellent.
I would definitely recommend this to a friend.

I use this product to hold my HTC Incredible to my vent mount while I use it as a GPS and Music Player (via FM Transmitter). Arms holds the Phone snugly so it will not move or fall out, the location of the charging cable and headphone jack are not interfered with by the mount. The vent mount swivels nicely to allow for a good viewing angle while attached to either the driver's side or passenger's side central vents of my cars.
I have not tried the windshield mount.
I guess my GPS vent mount is from the same company because the mounts are compatible and I now I don't have to detach the vent piece when swapping between using my car and my wife's car.

I haven't had much success with car mounts for either the HTC Hero or Droid Incredible, but the Arkon has been the best I've tried so far and is inexpensive compared to others. I've used it in both a Honda CR-V and Toyota Yaris.
Pros:
- The windshield clamp is secure and doesn't fall off, and the cradle also holds the phone safely.
- Inserting and removing the phone is very easy, which is important since you'll be doing that quite often!
- The mount is very flexible, and can be set in a wide range of positions (it can also hold the phone either vertically or horizontally).
- It's very simple to install, though be aware that there's only one windshield adhesive so you can't use the windshield mount in more than one car.
- The vent mount works flawlessly in the CR-V, and seems most suited to vents with thin plastic bars that are fixed.
Cons:
- Conversely, the vent mount doesn't work in every vehicle. It won't fit on any vent in the Yaris at all.
- The windshield clamp can be tricky to attach (you have to make sure you create enough of a vacuum).
Overall, so far so good - I can finally use my phone as a navigation unit while it's charging in the car. Note that there are no power cables or FM transmitters included.

This mount works great for the iphone 4 and more than likley any smartphone or pda. It is very solid plastic. Can have it dash mounted and then change window mount any time you wish. Can turn phone to landscape view by just turning while in the mount. Doesnt bounce to much while driving. Very solid mount. Great purchase for me. Love it.

Okay, so if you don't know how to use this product properly, you probably shouldnt have bought it (i'm talking about the other reviews. the package comes with the windshield mount (suction cup), a vent mount (clips), and a dash mount (sticky pad). all of the mounts work with the included holding piece. i'll review each piece separately. i read a review on here before i bought that the suction cup doesnt stay at all. whoever wrote that review is straight up inept. you have to pull the lever behind the suction cup to induce suction. after the lever is pulled, the cup stays VERY firmly. you cant pull it off unless you release the lever. i never used the dashboard mount because i dont have the real estate on my dashboard to place it.
the vent mount is the only relatively week point in this product. the clips seem flimsy (but havent broken yet) and the whole mount is hard to keep steady ( i guess thats what you get for it being universal). when i say hard to keep steady i mean the leg of the mount that is supposed to push the mount up from a spot under the vent isnt too sturdy and moves around alot. the vent is STILL adjustable depending on where you place the mount. im sure moving it around a few inches to find the sweet spot isnt that big of a deal. on the bright side, the mount stays upright and is cooled by the air conditioner. WARNING: if you care about the electronics you place in this mount, dont turn the heat on when using the vent mount. the holding piece works perfectly. the plasting holding "rails" if thats what you want to call them are adjustable on the bottom of the mount, so that you can move them around according to where a charging or headphone jack is on your product....

Simply the best for the price
I paid $15.00 and I did not expect to get such a great product at that price point. People are complaining that the vent clips are weak, in my honest opinion, it's quite sturdy and... Read more

Works great
This comes in very handy! Works great in my car, but I'm not a fan of the vent holders. Can't get them to stay or to stay very well. Overall I enjoy it and use it a lot.

I've only used the vent mount so far and love it. Stays in firmly and doesn't move on its own. Holds my Samsung Galaxy S3 with its bulky wallet case. Read more

Good Universal Mount
Works with both my iphone and GS3. I got this to use the air vent mount which once you figure out how to make it work is ok, but is by no means a "firm" hold. Read more

Great quality
The main mount is really good and the rubber sticks to the windshield easily. However the vent mount is not very useful if you have a heavy phone. I liked the product in general. Read more

Trustworthy item!
So far, I've used the vent mount since I already know how the windshield mount works. This vent thingy surprised me. The clips themselves go in rather securely. Read more
