OhSnap grip compatible and sturdy mount due to stabilizing vent arm
The media could not be loaded. I should begin by explaining that I was looking for a magnetic mount to use with an OhSnap grip that I installed on the case of my Samsung S21. I didn’t want wireless charging as I prefer the speed of direct charging when I’m in the car. Since the OhSnap grip has a magnet built in which is designed to be compatible with MagSafe devices I decided to take a gamble and order a MagSafe mount that better served my needs than offerings by OhSnap. The Quarble fit my needs for an upgraded vent mount at a reasonable price. To my delight, the mount worked with the grip. However as you can see in my video review, it held weakly with just the mount and grip alone. However, when I put the included metal plate directly on the mount between grip and mount they two held strongly to each other and is very secure.The mount itself appears sturdy and well made. The part that touches your phone has a rubber coating that will protect the finish of your phone or case. The plastics used seem quality too and lack the brittleness I’ve experienced in cheaper options. There is very little flex though and seem to add to the stability. The extra stability arm is what drew me to this model and I believe it does an excellent job in stabilizing the mount. I currently have it pointed down, but without a second stabilizer on the opposite side it could bounce upwards, but the weight or the phone will likely minimize this. Depending on your car vents, this extra arm also helps to spread the weight of the mount and phone, reducing stress on your car vent slats. My car is a 2016 Mazda CX-5 and it’s vents are sturdy, but I take comfort knowing that this mount may help mitigate potential breakage. I’ve only taken a few drives thus far but it appears to be exactly what I’ve been looking for.

holding up just fine so far
I bought this for my road trip and it has been pretty helpful to have a my phone mounted for easy viewing. The little bottom bracket on the mount helps reduce the stress put onto your vent, some competitors do not offer this and will likely result in some broken vents without the support clip. The magnet is strong and I’m not worried about my phone slipping from that portion of the mount.After about 1000 miles the mount itself did start to slip from my vent, I was able to grab it before it ever fell. it’s possible I didn’t install it well enough initially since I just installed it in the dark while driving, so that speaks to how easy it is to install. It’s nice to be able to have my phone visible to make changing songs easier while my navigation is running on CarPlay. I’ll update this to 5 stars if it doesn’t fall off my vent again when I’m done with my road trip… or downgrade it to 3/2 if it does :)I’ve generally used ProClip products which are great, but they are far from universal or cheap. This mount is great since you can just jump in some other car and mount up and go. I do recommend this if you are in the market for this style of mount.

Great product if you are not using phone cover
Good designc it fits great into my car vent. Great magnet, holds the phone perfect if there is no cover on the phone. I am using tiny, coroless silicone cover and hence I needed to glue additional magnet circle (also provided in the package) on my cover. Unfortunatley, this magnet circle comes off whenever I detach phone from the holder. So in my case it does not work unfortunately. Anytime magnet circle goes back on the cover it does not hold as good as originally, and cover is also all messy because of glue. I am thinkng how to approach this problem differently. Probably will search for other solutions.

Works too good!
I have a Samsung phone, and I have been on the hunt for the perfect magnet mount for years. I came across this one but read the reviews and noticed worked with a magsafe case or the iPhone 12 so it suggested I buy a magnet compatible with this , so i did I put it on phone case on the outside like suggested, go to put mount on car put the phone on mount and when I went to take it off it wouldn't come off i had to pull soooo hard that this thing broke now I have the magnet stuck on my phone and the rubber part is broken. I'm so bummed I really like this thing it really holds well but it broke. I had to pull with so much force just to be able to take off I'm scared it will brake my kia telluride vents. So now I have to return and keep using the other that just works ok.

First one I’ve found that works well with my vents
I have a 2014 Corolla. In the past, it’d been tough to find vent mounts that fit my vents well, so with my XR, I just had a dash mount and used a case that had a built-in magnet. When I got an iPhone 13, I searched for a decent MagSafe vent mount (I didn’t want to reattach anything to my dash after prying the last one off).This one works great! It fits the Corolla vents, and the extra support helps make it so I can still aim the vent where I want it without any issues.A couple times it’s popped off of the vent when I grabbed my phone, but if you don’t snatch it off too hastily, it’s fine!

Excellent magnet
Magnet is excellent. Holds my 13 pro perfect. Vent clip, like many others, is crap. Just ordered a different vent clip that I hope fits this magnet mount. I hate having to buy two product s to combine for a perfect car Ben holder but after three different brands I hope it works. I have a 2013 Tundra btw. This product will not secure on my vents. Too wide to hold well although the magnet holder itself is perfect.

Awesome MagSafe Car Vent Mount for IPhone 12 Pro Max
Great find the on Amazon! It holds my IPhone 12 Pro Max with ease and I can rotate it any which way I want and it is 100% secure. The magnet is strong and reliable. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Needs more stability for vertical air vents
Purchased this to use with a car that has cents with vertical slats. Unfortunately The support arm needs to be wider to stabilize a phone attached to a vertical vent. As it stands, the mount wiggles left and right on the vertical vent slats. I would suggest a new design with the support arm split into two sides to make it wider for more stability.
