Arkon Cellphone Mounts and Holders Make Using Phones in Your Vehicle Possible
When you're trying to navigate hands-free, driving can be challenging. Fortunately, Arkon cellphone mounts and holders for universal models are available in a variety of different types, meaning different smartphone brands can be mounted. A range of ways to mount into a car means that your vehicle model is irrelevant.
What colors and finishes are available?Arkon cellphone mounts and holders are available in a variety of different colors and finishes, including black, multicolor, metallic, matte, and glossy. Materials include different types of plastic and metal. Metallic finishes have a sheen to them while matte finishes are shine-free and smooth. Glossy materials like hard plastic give off some degree of shine.
What types of cellphone mounts are there?Cell phone holders are available in bike mount, car mount, selfie stick, and tripod formats. Some are even convertible. If you're taking the mountain bike out for a little triathlon training, you might simply transfer your cellphone mount to the bike. Same navigation capabilities exist in a different location. Selfie sticks can be used at parties; they are long, extendable poles that hold a phone at one end to take pictures or offer a host of other mobile capabilities. Tripod mounts hold the phone on top of a triangle-like three legs.
What mounting types exist?Mounting types include clips, grips, adhesive sticky pads, magnetic car mount holders, and suction cups. Clips typically hook onto car dashboard vents with slots in them. Grips can adhere to different surfaces at the front of the car, typically those contained in the dashboard. Magnets are attracted to metal components and may be a practical choice if your car's interior has lots of metallic trim. Sticky pads are versatile and can stick to many different surfaces. Suction cups work by pressing the air out of a space to create a seal.
Which locations can mounts adhere to?Cellphone mounts can adhere to air vents, cigarette lighters, cup holders, dashboards, handlebars, and windshields:
- Air vents: These are the pieces at the front of the car in the dashboard that have slots which can open and close. The clips can fasten to these relatively easily.
- Cigarette lighters: These offer a power source for mounts that include charging stations.
- Cup holders: These can also serve as a place to mount a phone for a variety of purposes.
- Dashboards: Generally, these serve as a common mounting location, as do windshields for a slightly different angle.
- Handlebars: These work well on a bike.
