Olixar Universal Smartphone Windscreen In-Car Holder Reviews

Chose to buy this new cradle because my S8 was too wide for my old cradle.

Bought it Feb 2018.

Mid June 2019. I've just finally got rid of this olixar phone holder because the sucker plastic has half torn away from the hard plastic of the suction mounting disc. The weight of the phone and arm basically peels the sucker away from the windscreen.

It's lasted 14 months, which i suppose is ok.

Cradle is working fine. Arm is fine too. It's just IMO a poor design of how the soft plastic of the sucker itself attaches to the rest of the suction mechanism and arm.

The cradle rotates between portrait and landscape and has a small sliding locking latch. It's a bit fiddly though and will only lock at horizontal and vertical (took me a while to work that out).

The feet of the cradle slide outwards, which is a nice touch. Gives support to wider phones and can handle different placements of e.g. headphone jack or USB ports.

The cradle grips (sliding) mechanism is smooth.

Arm is fairly long, so functional in that respect. There's a bit of vibration due the leverage of the long arm. Not too bad though

One of the pads of the side grips (bits that 'hold' phone) came off almost straight away but the glue seemed ok enough to mean i just put it back (it's not come off since but does feel much of the time that it could fall off, when i pull my phone out of the cradle).

So, a mixed experience, really. For all these reasons, I've only given it 3 stars.

Worked as expected after making a modification

Very happy with my purchase makes it far easier when using your maps whilst driving

Great value for money

Works really well, had no problems since installing it!

Excellent product

I've had about 5 or 6 different in car phone holders over the years, some stuck on the dash, some clip to the air vents and I've had one other suction one that was sh**

However I found this product to be far superior to others. Literally never drops off the window at all, stuck it on the first time and 6 months later when I needed to take it off that was the first time it came off. The arm that holds the phone is really sturdy too unless you want to move it. really can't recommend this enough, excellent value for money.

I needed a smartphone holder that actually fit the phone... Prior to this I've tried a few different holder's and they just disappointed..... However after purchasing the olixar I am very happy... Thanks...

Works well, strong suction cap, holds position well. I have one in my 4wd and it still holds the phone off-roading.
I purchased 5, one for each of our families cars.

Bought this as it is very adaptable and easy to use. Good anchor to the windscreen. Rotation good and length of arm spot on. Delivery was on time and product perfect. Ideal for use as backup gps using your phone

Mobile Phone holder -very good purchase, fast delivery

A very sturdy piece of equipment and holds the phone tightly

It actually sticks to the window! Bought a cheap one before it and it would fall down before I put the phone in it but this one hasn’t fallen down yet and I have it stuck a good 3 weeks now! Worth the few bob!

fits my iphoneSE & holds it on three sides. can mount it so that the bottom is touching the top of the dashboard to prevent shaking. reasonable price

Perfect for my needs and great product

Good functional and sturdy product, I highly recommend it.

Sturdy, user-friendly and stays put on the windscreen!

I’m happy so far but wondering if it will hold on roads that cause vibration in the car as the product does wobble a fair bit on the windscreen

I have an unusually wide protective phone cover. I was anxious that the holder would be able to hold it. Absolutely no problem .

The arm is a little too short.

As described very pleased.

Super useful, easy to set up, getting one for my mum too.

Its really good device to use. Recommended

Exactly what I wanted as a product and easy to use

Very useful bit of kit, not expensive either. If you use your phone as a sat nav its much safer than having it moving about on your dashboard or lap or whatever you do. The fact that you can move it about means you can get it right in your eyeline, which is much safer.

Use it all the time with my iPhone. I would definitely recommend this product.

It is a great product that keep phone secure inside you car. It is working great,
Love it

Hi I bought smartphone car holder for mobile fun.com. The product came to my house super fast. And its a very good quality.i am so happy and I recommend this 100.10% thanku fun mobile.

Very sturdy and so far so good. The flexible arm allows me to change the position especially if the sun shines on my phone screen. Good value for money.

As normal the service was spot on prompt delivery, item as described no problems. Happy as always thanks

Does exactly what it says on the Tin.

It does exactly what it says on the box. It is what I was looking for and very competitively priced.
Excellent product.

the phone holder shakes too much, making it hard to read the map the properly.

I got the olixar phone holder and have found it very useful It is well made and adjusts to suit my iPhone 6s The only snag is that it does shake a bit on bumps but I adjust it so it is touching the dash which prevents the shake

Compared to other holders I have tried the suction cup on this one is very strong so its unlikely to fail when you adjust it. Also the width of the clamp allows the phone with a bulky case to be placed into the holder.

I would definitely recommend this product

I haven’t opened it as it’s a Christmas present.however the packaging on the outside looked perfect ????????????

My husband has a similar one which is really good, so I was looking for one like it. It is just what I wanted. I am very satisfied.

Good product works as described

Very good and happy as

How well it holds the phone.

I bought this as a replacement for a more rigid holder that broke. The swan neck is useful and the adjustable phone grip works well. However, most phones will extend a fair way over the top of the holder. This, in itself, isn't a problem but the grips don't hold it firmly enough to stop the phone tilting within the grips when tapping the top half of the phone (e.g. when using a sat nav app on the phone).
On the plus side, the description makes no mention of the removable clear plastic cover that sits behind the phone. You can put a picture of your family/dog etc in there for when it's not holding your phone!

I'm using the holder to contain my smartphone which has the app WAZE on it to be used as a sat nav. Excellent! the vibration was a bit of a nuisance but easily remedied.

Excellent item easy to attach and detach.

Am very satisfied with this product. Was as described on the websight

Bit tricky sticking to windscreen but once up held the phone safely.charger moves around quite a lot when driving but easy to assemble and great price.would certainly use your company again

The service is very good and fast I am happy to used your service

Great little gadget,now I have somewhere to store my phone. It's strong and secure.

Very timely delivery and a very sturdy piece of kit. It sticks to the window well and the arm stays where I put it and it fits well for my iPhone XR

works fin e doesn't get much simpler

Not happy with the product at all. It stuck to a windscreen twice and just keeps falling off. Complete waste of money

Detailed description of item along with return policy if unsuitable plus delivery details and cost.

Description on site was good and correct

It does exactly what I wanted it to ... securely hold my mobile in a convenient place. Well built.

Sturdy holder with a good, long arm that’s not wobbly. Can be adjusted to any angle.

Well described in add

I brought this as the one that was given to me snapped, and this is absolutely perfect, I can move it around to a position that suits me, it has a great grip on my phone and beats anything in the shops in my opinion, I would recommend this to everyone as I think it’s the best. And such a bargain for your money.

????????

This really is a great phone holder. Great value for money, very pleased indeed.

Have not used yet but looks good

It's flexibility.

Bought for a present. Good product. Prompt delivery. Would recommend :)

The device doesn't allow a landscape view of my phone and is not secure in the portrait position. If you have a larger phone this device doesn't work.

This product works exactly as described.

Nothing but there are no instructions on how to install it.

This item is the best and very good

Great product and easily transferable between vehicles

didnt like it at all too much movement on it, is big and bulky on your window screen would not recommend.

Broke on first use and though it is still workable its not as secure

sticks well to the windscreen - great suction.

Simple to put together and install in car, easily moved or removed. Easy to put phone in and out of it. Very suitable for using phone as a sat nav.

Good product and quick delivery. Would recommend.

Nothing was informative enough

Easy to install, very stable. Perfect product.

Nothing, the product was pretty well described!

I already knew ho.w good your products are .mates told me

Bought this as needed a universal holder as we share our car.
It wobbles when driving which doesn’t help my vertigo!!!

It does what it is meant to do and does lt well.

I wish I’d bought this ages ago. I have tried various devices and none have worked reliably. This holder really does the job. Highly recommended.

I have an iPhone 7 and although the phone is fine in portrait it is not tall enough to properly support it and can topple out of the holder. Might be a good idea to give height of phone limits. However, well constructed and easy to use.

I already heard you were good.now I now will visit you soon.

Holds the android phone well and is sturdy.

Great quality gadget. Arrived on time. Easy website to use.

Does what it says on the tin. Not flimsy good product.

Bought this holder a few weeks ago for business and I am extremely pleased with it.
The bendy bar provides very sturdy and stable support for my phone. The Suction cup is extremely strong ( strongest of any I have used before )
Very good value and quality made.
I would highly recommend.

Does what it's meant to.

Once assembled correctly it seems quite sturdy. It has been stuck on the windscreen for over a month and has not fallen off. Easy to put phone in (mine is in a skin type case) and can be charged at the same time (charging port at the bottom). There is some vibration, which is a minor irritation, though can be remedied by resting the bottom of the holder on the dash. Can be rotated between landscape and portrait though you need to lock the little latch at the back and this is a bit fiddly. Overall does the job well and have bought a second for the wife.

Phone sits nicely in the holder but the actually holder connecting to the extension comes off easily especially driving on bumpy roads. Fixed this with blue tac and tape to stop it coming off and it is fine now.
Video on the webite should show how to attach the two pieces just in case I have been doing something wrong.

Holds phone ok

Useful as an alternative for the car but haven't yet worked out how to attach actual phone holder to stalk that fits to screen so that it fixes properly.

Fixes to several different surfaces in the car and phone fits fine Several of the universal ones don't grip properly but no problems with this one

Sturdy and sticks well with good gooseneck and very expandable holder.The one small point is that the removable plate which attaches the phone holder to the cradle unattaches a bit too easily if you try to alter the phone angle. I might glue it.

Quick delivery, product ideal

I bought this for my wife after she got booked for using her phone. It is a great and easy to use but the lugs at the bottom that hold the phone broke off after about 6 weeks. So I am about to buy another phone holder but it certainly wont be this one.

A robust in-car holder.Serves its purpose extremely well...

This smart phone holder is chunky and unstable. Disappointed with the quality.

I like the product in general, it does what it says on the tin. However, where the neck and the phone holder attach, there is nothing to lock it in place. The result of this being that as soon as you go over any road surfaces that are slightly bumpy, the holder falls off. I have had to superglue the holder to the neck in order to stop this happening.

Seems a sturdy product. Brought for Mum so cant review the usage.

I bought one for my daughter for Christmas and she raved about it so much I treated myself to one. Its the first holder that doesn't bounce when traveling. The cradle the phone sits in is so easy to adjust, and feels safe. 100% satisfied.

Great phone car holder, especially good with smartphones that have phone cases. Fits well. Very pleased
