Default Is anyone using this phone mount from Amazon?

Looks like it's a usable solution, reviews are a bit mixed but generally positive. Anyone here have any feedback on it?

Not using that one, but something similar:

Velcro strap like the one in your link, but this one is a single magnet. Works pretty well, you have to get it nice and tight, and over time it will leave a little mark on your leather, but not a big deal to me. Can't comment on the quality of the strap on the one you linked, but at $25 may as well give it a go!

I have it. It holds better than I expected, BUT it rattles. I tried to tape all parts, but sadly there are some that does not have enough space for a electrical tape. I hate the rattle, so I will switch to something else.

I took this one off my e-bike, used a piece of an old belt under the claws to protect the leather/suede. works great; don't use the rubber bands

Yes, I use that mount. It seemed to be the best for the F-Type and has worked well. No rattles; no tape needed (though that could be because of my particular phone).

Hmm hmm I see you have P300. I have never driven it but I can imagine that this car is probably much calmer than V6/V8. V6 vibrates quite heavily and the rattles are there for sure. When the phone is attached i would say it is calmed down 90% but still buzzing there and there. Without the phone and exhaust open - drive me crazy.

Actually, I did remove it to the glove box because of rattling when the phone wasn't in it. I've since reinstalled and found a folded position where it seems to behave when empty. I mostly use it when controlling Spotify via Bluetooth because phone-only functions don't require mounting/access.

You might want to check your engine mounts. New ones can cure heavy vibrations, I've found.
