Car phone holder? Topbuy deal?

illumination on 09/10/2012 - 12:52

Hey guys want a bit of advice on a car phone holder.

I'd prefer one that can attach onto the aircon part of the car, since it's illegal to use your phone while you drive and it's a bit more hidden if it's on the aircon part. I actually bought this off ebay for about $5 bucks about a month ago but I don't really like it that much. I then received this in the topbuy newsletter. Anyone know where I can get a decent good holding phone holder?

I use a Galaxy S2 if that makes a difference.

I know this is kind of a "Find me a Bargain" but I thought that the topbuy price may be a deal - so others can see it too. Not confident enough that it's a bargain to post it though!

  works quite well if you stick the bottom part real secure

I tried this -

But the Garmin mount I received wouldn't suction properly (think I got a dud) and the rubberized case I got would clip over the edge of my iPhone 4S so removal of the phone from the case was too difficult.

I'm now going to try this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/261105170526?ssPageName=STRK:MEWN… with another Garmin suction mount.

I'm also going to try this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/160810630247?ssPageName=STRK:MEWN…

But I'm probably wasting my time with these el cheapo solutions and I should just buy a decent one.

You might want to have a look at this: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/150920334876

But not sure about the quality since I haven't bought one myself.

Thanks guys I'll have a look at these.
I'm not really looking for one specifically for a galaxy S2 because I'd like the flexibility of being able to put other phones in it (in case I ever change phones, or if a friend wants to put their phone).
