I mount my iPhone in my front pant's pocket. My wife chooses to use her purse. And we use Car Play on the really big screen.

I"ll 2nd ProClips for the mount, but NOT their phone holder. Perhaps the magnetic, as mentioned above, is OK, but their "slide in" leaves ease of use to be desired. .. I bought their 17 mm ball adapter and put an IOtti (my favorite) phone mount on that. ..

I will say before I came to ProClip, I had gone thru at least 3 other mounting systems, all of which proved to be inadequate.

My 2¢

I like this one from Amazon. It has wireless charging, and more than just a magnetic attachment. It grabs your phone. The cord is long enough, if you tuck it up under the right side, to reach the center console USB for a hidden cable installation..

Proclip with the adjustable mount so I don't have to buy a new phone holder every time I get a new phone.

Yep, don't need a iPhone mount. Use CarPlay. Or Android's version.

Second this. Bought one used of a forum member, easy to mount, works great and charges the phone also. Only negative for me is I had to change the phone case and it doesn't work with magnetic mounts on my other cars. Oh well.....

ProClip USA. They only have one Dash Mount (Part #855719), but you choose the Phone Holder based on your phone model and case thickness as applicable.
I have a Samsung S24 Ultra and went with the Adjustable Holder for Rugged Cases Holder (Part #241690) since I have a 10-11mm thick case.

The Holder "wedges" behind the Infotainment by the dash/cluster hood and clips around it. I have the Carbon Bezel around the Infotainment and there's no fitment issue.
4-Screws attache the Holder to the Dash Mount. You can adjust the tension of the holder using the center screw.

I didn't go with a charging holder since I use the built in charger in the waterfall if necessary. To each their own, but I also didn't like it in the cup holder, or laying around that area.
I like up there where I see it and get to anything needed without having to pick it up. I never notice it, or consider it in my way (field of view)

A side question here. Does anyone use one of the speed limit apps when the phone is
up next to the display? Since the speed limit display disappeared from my display months
ago, I've been using Waze for that purpose but I'd like a larger display if possible.

I use a V1G2 with the JBV1 app on my Pro Clip mounted phone. I have that app show the speed limit, and my speed and have an alarm set if I exceed 20% of the posted limit. (Or is it 20 mph over? ... can't quite recall now. and can't find the setting)

I just added a Scosche MagicMount Pro Charge5 charger to my ProClip mount.
Amazon Amazon

I love it, magnetic is so convenient. As the photos show, there is an exposed charging cable but with the included cable management clips I think I did a pretty neat job of keeping it out of the way.
Its close but the glove box door opens without fowling the cable. And the install is completely reversible.

Probably worth mentioning that the actual chargers that ProClip sell are from Scosche - the are the best!

I have the Proclip also and it works perfectly. I would encourage you to watch the installation video-or maybe I'm just not smart!

I installed the ProClip with wireless charger today. Works great, but couldn’t get the magnet to stick to my phone case. I had to remove case and used double sided tape to affix magnet to back of phone. Nice system. Install took about 40 min.

There are reasons to run an app on a phone at the same time you're using CP or AA. THe JBV1 app that works with the Valentine 1 is my reason.
