Greetings everyone, just noticed that this phone holder has gone on sale, it was extremely popular the last time it went on sale, however it seems like the quality significantly dropped after the first batch was shipped.

This is a genuine updated version of the phone holder and it's really good quality. Make sure to choose the "Updated Edition". Green is the only colour in stock at this price unfortunately.

The deal lasts for 22 more hours so get in quick if you want one.

Please note: You can also get $4 USD Coupon for $5 USD Spend When You Download The AliExpress App at the moment if you haven't downloaded the app before, you could get 2 of these for $2.35 AUD shipped with that, which is awesome!

Back Again 12pm: Both Green and Grey in Stock

As always, enjoy!

Update Monday 12 Feb: Back in stock, with a decrease of around US $0.35 cents in price.

      Same, bought during the last special on OzBargain, use it all the time.

    • virhlpool on 31/01/2018 - 21:52

      Will it work with GPS (broader than phones)?

      • jvdv001 on 31/01/2018 - 22:04

        The unit will expand to 3" and it just fits my Garmin 2455 which has a 4.5 inch screen so I doubt it would fit any Garmin with a 5" or larger screen. Not sure about other GPS brands.

    • bestbarginever on 01/02/2018 - 18:19

      In your experience, will it bend the air vent over long term usage? I mean surely the weight of the phone will bend the plastic right ?

        I've used my Kenu Airframe phone holder for 5 years and have never bent or broken my vent fin. YMMV, but in my experience it works really well.

        I also make sure to position the holder close to the edge where it has more support, rather than the middle of the vent fin.

    it seems like the quality significantly dropped after the first batch was shipped. There are $1 options on eBay, but they are much worse quality and not worth it.

    So did the quality of these drop or not? And what does ebay knockoffs have to do with this model?

    • doweyy on 31/01/2018 - 20:44
      +1

      The quality of this one didn't as it's genuine, but the vendor of the other deal started to ship fake models. I decided to remove the $1 part as it was incorrect info.

      • deadpoet on 12/02/2018 - 23:48

        It's a surreal thing when folks start to make knockoffs of the knockoff!

      All the better for spotting it instead of forgetting it in a rental/mates/stolen car.

  • JuryWheel on 31/01/2018 - 20:57

    Got one, just wish it stuck out from the vent a bit more

  • a20c87 on 31/01/2018 - 20:57

    Does it work for the GPS? GPS width is typically more than phones.

  • touchmylemon on 31/01/2018 - 21:40

    What is the difference between the basic and update version?

    • doweyy on 31/01/2018 - 21:42

      It's just a difference in the clip as seen in the photos, seems like a much better design to clip onto the vent.

  • matt-ozb on 31/01/2018 - 21:46

      Works perfectly on my computer? You can only select green as grey is sold out.

      • matt-ozb on 31/01/2018 - 21:54

        Yes, I am trying to select one of the two colour options that are in stock (after selecting China shipping option).

        • doweyy on 31/01/2018 - 21:57

          That's weird, it works perfectly on Chrome on my Macbook.. Can't see why it wouldn't let you do it.

  • webtonmoy on 31/01/2018 - 21:55

    I can't get the coupon code. When I put the code "NEWUSERCOUPON_APP_0115" in the app, it says "expired"

    Am I missing something?

    • doweyy on 31/01/2018 - 21:56

      You don't have to put a coupon in, if you went through the prompts and got to that stage it should auto apply at checkout before paying.

      • wtfnodeal on 31/01/2018 - 22:50

        Nah didn't apply any discount and bought 2 was charged full price $7.52 😔

        • doweyy on 31/01/2018 - 22:52

          That’s weird, it should’ve worked fine if you got the pop up after opening the app and accepting the coupon? It would say the discount in blue text at the checkout.

        • wtfnodeal on 31/01/2018 - 23:04

          @doweyy: I used Apple app if that's the reason?

        • doweyy on 31/01/2018 - 23:10

          @wtfnodeal:

          Nah I used the apple app to try it too, really not sure why it didn’t work for you..

        • ScrubCorps on 01/02/2018 - 01:25

          @wtfnodeal: I had two accounts and it only worked on my barely used one.

        • wtfnodeal on 01/02/2018 - 07:25

          @ScrubCorps: it was the first time I registered and bought from Aliexpress. So the discount code is for existing customers not new customers?

      • webtonmoy on 31/01/2018 - 23:10

        Did not work for me, tried in both the app and desktop. :(

      If you have an android phone, go to application manager and "clear data". Then sign back in and redeem the coupon again. It should apply the discount at the checkout, this is what I did and it worked for me.

  • gezza90 on 31/01/2018 - 22:52

    This is a solid product but keep in mind it's not one size fits all. The slots at the back of this mount is a T shape and might not fit some vents. Also be careful when putting it on the vent as it's very easy to break the vertical moving fins in the vent.

  • AssociatedKapinny @ Rock OfficialFlagship Store on 31/01/2018 - 23:10

  • spuderump on 31/01/2018 - 23:11

    For those with weird car vents where these holders won't fit, I have been using one where it just plugs into your cars cd player and acts as a phone holder. Works a treat.

  • BigRedBlackCar on 31/01/2018 - 23:15

    The one peeve about this product is how it ends up blocking the vent. I end up turning my phone upside down so it isn't covering as much.
