Quality kit!
I have now purchased two of these holders and combined with the Brodit mounting clips, they provide a high quality mounting solution for my phone.
I know these are not the cheapest on the market, but in my opinion they are the best and I highly recommend them.

Custom holder
This is the first phone holder I have had that works like the custom car-kit's, that were last available about 10 years ago. Just drop the phone in the holder and with a light press, it's fixed in place and charging.

brodit active holder fir htc desire
Holds the phone very securely. Locates onto charger easily. Would have been 5 stars if it came supplied with stick on pads which I had to go out and buy rather than securing it with the screws supplied and causing permanent damage go my dash.

Hi, thanks for the review, if you do not wish to damage your dashboard, please purchase a Brodit ProClip which can be found here.

Brodit active holder for HTC Desire
An excellent bit if kit. The Brodit holder for my Jag is inconspicuous and fits securely without any damage. The phone holder is as minimalistic and adjustable as it could be. The charger is also very good as it charges the phone whilst being heavily used (e.g. as a satnav)- others have just "kept it going". As has been said in other reviews, pricier that some options but much much better. Oh, and the service from MobileFun is exemplary!

Hold and Charge
Have used Brodit active holders and pro clips for years. A bit expensive but robust and do the job better than anything else I've tried. Holds my Desire well and can be adjusted easily for best viewing angle.

A brilliant in car phone holder
I was fed up loosing my new HTC Desire at the bottom of the car and ordered a Brodit Active Phone Holder with Tilt Swivel. Good web site, value for money and arrived the day after I ordered it. Works like a dream, no more flat batteries and with my blue tooth hands free am safe and legal! Brilliant! I would recommend it to eveyone.

Great
Used Bordit before as with all their products this holder works great. Holds phone solid and easy to get phone in and out. Works best with a car bracket.
I took the tilt & swivel unit off, still cheaper from mobile fun than buying direct.

Best Brodit holder yet
I have used Brodit products on my cars for about ten years with the major advantage being hundreds of ‘clips’ to suit most vehicle type that clip onto the dashboard meaning you don’t have to drill holes in your new car. Add to this range of clips the specific holder for the HTC desire and you have a great piece of kit. A previous holder for a Sony Ericsson did block of the speaker slightly but the HTC one has no problem with the rear facing speaker being well clear of the holder. Additionally the HTC slips easily into mini USB connector and remains firmly held regardless of portrait or landscape position. Recommended.

As other's have said, don't forget to buy the ot
Great unit this - just slide the Desire on, and it's away and charging.
Sometimes a bit fiddly to engage the charger, but that's more of a shortcoming of micro-USB than this unit.
THE BRODIT SYSTEM IDEALLY REQUIRES YOU BUY TWO COMPONENTS AND SECURE THEM TOGETHER...
Buy the component for your handset (this), and the component for your car. You then screw the two together to form a bespoke vehicle mount.
You do not need to screw this directly into your dashboard.

Top Holder
This holder was delivered the very next day and I was not disappointed. it was a doddle to fit as i already had the Brodit fixing plate in place so just had to remove my old holder and change to the HTC one with 1 centre screw.my phone fits perfect into the holder and connects very securely.if you are going to buy one buy from Mobilefun as they are the cheapest around and the service is untouchable

Brodit Active Holder with Tilt Swivel - HTC Desire
I have purchased a few of these items for different phones over the years and this again is an excellent item and come as described. If you want a cradle come charger, there's no better item.

nearly a 5 star kit
I found this website really easy to use and the staff more than helpful. Delivery was excellent. My only complaint for the product is you can only mount it on the face of your dashboard not the top, and seeing as my car has limited flat space I'm now forced to buy an extension piece to put it on the top. The product itself is excellent, solid and thankfully not bulky.

Brodit Active Holder with Tilt Swivel - HTC Desire
Generally works very well, I would be happier if it were a little more substancial but the engineering is basically very sound. I would reccomend it.

A few issues
Overall the product is good however.
1) It is quite a tight fit for the Desire. I had to sand the sides of the dock for the phone slide in and out nicely.
2) Fixing it to the dashboard of my car proving problematic. It comes with no adhesive and I have no idea how to fix it firmly. I'm considering screwing it to my dashboard.

Desire Holder
Just want to point out, you don't screw it to the dashboard! You can buy car specific mounting plates, these clip on to various places in each car.

Brodit Active Holder with Tilt Swivel: HTC Desire
Very pleased with the product. Looks good in the car and fits perfectly with the HTC Desire. Allows rotation to both portrait and landscape which is ideal for using the phone as a sat nav. Bit more expensive than some, but worth the money. The expected method of attaching the holder to your car is by screwing to the dashboard. I didn't fancy putting holes in my new car so bought some sellotape sticky fixers (that double sided sticky foam stuff) which did the job very nicely. Can't fault it, would highly recommend.

Excellent bit of kit
First time I have bought a Brodit product, always bought cheaper phone holders, but this is the bees knees for Desire users. Super build quality, perfect fit for the Desire and its so easy to install. If you get one of these get the Car Dock app, works a treat with the Brodit. Highly recommended.

Better than I expected..
This is the 2nd Brodit phone holder ive bought from mobilefun now, the first being for a Nokia 8800 but that was just an active holder and decided to go for a passive one this time.
I suppose this is must have seeing the Google Maps nagivation is now active for the UK and with Bluetooth and GPS running, the already poor battery life was shocking hence the decidion to go for a passive holder instead.
The fit to the phone is very good and the sides are hard rubber not plastic so dont worry about plastic on plastic scratches.
This is NOT suitable for desires with invisibleshield coverings (although I havent got one myself) I cant see the extra space you need.
The charger bit lines up with the phone perfectly, and slides right down onto it, with a nice engaging click with keeps the phone onto the bit and the charge status doesnt 'flicker' with a bump in the road. One of the nicest bits of the holder.
The power in part to the car is a bit shocking, with some blue light in the shape of a lightning bolt, that could have been better, but im thinking of housing this in the dash for a permanent connection.
The 'eyeball' style movement is good, and is positive enough to easily move but stay still under bumps in the road.
