Phone mount for track and daily use

Ive been trying to research what phone mounts would be best for me, and I see the proclip but the Scosche Charge 3 mount really caught my eye.

I see that its not a clip but a strong magnet and was wondering if anyone has used that out on track as a holder for the phone, and if the magnet was strong enough for the job. Its an attractive mount since it charges as it holds for the same price as a proclip.

I use the proclip with the charging cable just leave it plugged in always. I love it I do feel that it vibrates a little but the roads here are terrible so could just be that

Thanks for the input, the proclip is a serious mount!

I picked up the pro clip magnet mount as well but my passengers kept knocking the phone off. And I don't use phone cases on my sleek and sexy nights anyway so it was an all around inconvenience. Rather than go back and order the cradle I found a little vent mount which I have seen at several auto stores. I popped the back off and inside is metal so it does the job and it does it well.

On another note separate from and prior to this mod I also put double sided gorilla tape on the mounts snap vehicle attachment points. Noticed I would have to adjust from time to time most likely due to the Texas heat wearing the adhesive out from the constant adjustments.

Proclip has been pretty solid for me.
Yes I know its on the wrong side, so is the steering wheel.

I like the positioning of the ProClip, but I can't get mine to stay tightened.


I know it's a ProClip design issue, because the one in my wife and daughters car does the same thing.


I have a RAM X-Mount I used in my old car for track days...haven't thought about it for the Camaro.

This works for me. Magnet is pretty strong. I use the thin metal plate that came with it inside my phone case. Holds well.
