Merry Christmas everyone, was looking for this phone holder and found it is on sale currently. Thought about posting this as it is very popular among the ozbargain community.
Make sure to choose the "Updated Edition" - Last 2 colours and not the Basic version. Both Green and Grey available at time of posting.
Mod Note: Price has been updated to include GST.
Please add GST in price as AliExpress charges GST at checkout.
Have a few of gen1 and love it!
Shows up at $4.97 USD?
Wrong pricing please fix.
It's back on.. just bought 2.
whats the difference between 1st and 2nd gen?
Two is better than one
Better vent holder in two. Tight, strong and does not leave marks on the car vents.
Thanks bought 2. The mobile site is very bad, I had use my computer to complete transaction.
I used the app and it worked like a charm
Thanks IShibby, I totally forgot about the app.
First time buyer thanks OP, they must be good if they’re the mount of choice at ozbargain right? Also showed as $2.68 for me.
Fell for the hype on one of these a while back, it didn't last long. It fell out a few times whilst driving, eventually the clamp at the back broke or something. Replaced it with a Kmart magnetic one, INFINITELY better to have a magnet instead of arms holding the phone. The rubbers eventually wore out on that one and replaced it with a Taotronics one from Amazon the other day. It feels a lot more sturdy and despite costing $15 I'd choose that one again over this any day.
Link to Taotronics please
I grabbed the TT-SH023 from this deal which sticks onto the car and frees up the vent again, it feels very sturdy. The magnets are strong even through my relatively thick phone case, stronger than the magnet I had attached still from the Kmart holder.
When you have your phone mounted to the vent, you can keep it cool with the air conditioning. Heat is a killer to phone batteries.
This thing rocks, still so "tight" after all these years haha
I don't know if anyone else has the same issue, but my one warped (the clamp loosened outwards instead of staying straight) after about 2 weeks of use. It looks like maybe I got a dud one?
one of mine is acting up also. I think I may prefer my version 1 for this reason, plus tilting mechanism isn't really a necessity for me.
not sure if i wanna handover my details to ali
Will this fit a note 9 with chunky case?
I'm using one but with a slim case on my note 9.
What's the difference between version 1 and 2?
Going by looks it appears to have a part that latches onto the vent to stabilise it.
Actual cost AUD 3.13 paid from comm bank
Is it save to use credit card in ali express because they don't accept the paypal ???
Never had any issues using CC with Aliexpress even with refunds.
Thanks dingdong 😀
Just don't save your CC details. That's important.
just bought two thanks op
Bought one of these in the last deal and it has been great! Highly recommend.
