This is the one I keep checking on. Amazon keeps showing them unavailable.
There is a good mount at the end of your arms.

If he uses his arms while driving to hold his NOTE to watch a movie, he won't have a hand free to hold his beer.

I use a Bracketron unit. I've had it for a few years now. They make them with different mounting options. From windshield to vent to the cupholder version I use. They are like 30 at BB or can be had much less online. They are fully adjustable for size, tilt and swivel. I'm going to take a picture to give you an idea.

Thanks for the heads up. I checked on a regular basis the last few days with no luck. I was to busy today to check. But I have one on the way. This will be great for using in different vehicles.
Heres my set up. Sorry the picture is rotated.

My thoughts exactly. Maybe he should watch the road, or get a car that's so entertaining to drive that a movie isn't needed...
Got my Mountek CD slot mount today. Installed in my Audi Q5. Looks great, it only went in about 80-90% of the slot but it feels really secure and tight. Best solution for mounting I've seen so far.

im using this one www . proclipusa . com/brodit-device-holder/proclip-other-holders/regular-adjustable-holder-with-tilt-swivel-for-wider-devices-with-or-without-a-skin-875214A-13978.aspx
...doesnt work with reiko premium hybrid case.. actaly works if i remove rubber part
ps: remove spaces in the link
I have a Proclipusa [Brodit] mount in my Toyota Prius and it's great. I've been using Proclip mounts forever and highly recommend them. They're expensive, but they're precise and I think there is enough room in the back for an extended battery as it just has rails on the side that hold the phone with a big space behind it.
I'd take pictures, but I use my phone to take pictures.
It's a two piece mount. One part fits your phone perfectly, while the other part fits your car perfectly and mate together for a perfect fit.

No they wont, and you can have a CD in the player and still listen to it, you just cant eject it or load one obviously. Ive been looking at these for awhile and still flip flopping back and forth. To get he best idea of how they work just watch an installation video on it and you'll see it's quite simple and seems to be a very solid mounting method.
I prefer windshield mounts, as I can look at them while still keeping an eye on the road. Looking down at my dash I might as well be holding the phone..
Arkon is my preferred brand, their suction cup is very large and holds up well, I've had an Arkon Universal 14" for several years and it works great for my car with a long windshield, I bent the 14" arm so it comes off the windshield, touches the dash, then has the phone pointed at me, so no bouncing or vibration. They have a larger mount, but the Universal I have (slightly different than the current one, so might check specs) worked fine for my Nexus One and works fine for my Note.
I use the Samsung OEM mount, it's super solid, charges and has a 3.5mm Audio-out jack to run into your car's AUX-In.
I have two, one is vent mounted, the other is window mounted above my speedometer.

The above works just fine on my i717.

If you happen to have an old Droid X holster lying around, no need to purchase one for the Rezound as it fits in there quite nicely.
A little loose looking at the bottom but it really doesn't move at all as the clip keeps pressure on it.

I have been wanting to hang mine from the CD slot, but those clamp on ones aren't very elegant. Lots of bolts, thumbscrews, hinges. Looks almost like a Transformer. I wish it were slim, simple and elegant.

interesting. Wonder how well it works with the extended battery and case.
I love my speck case but there's no way i can take it on and off my Note everytime i go somewhere. Anyone know of a car mount that will fit mid size cases??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Doesn't have to be specifically a speck case, just something with extra room..
Universal or phone specific? I use a Bracketron universal holder fitted to a cupholder mount. They also have suction cup for windshield/ dashboard mounts as well as vent mounts. They sell at BB and a few others. Typically around $30 or so. Mine expands very wide and should have no issues fitting the Note with any case on it.

Just ordered the Exomount Universal. Should have it in a few days. Had to order it with a Galaxy Nexus screen protector and case plus car charger since everyone is sold out of the black mount only. Still cheaper off Amazon than direct from Exogear and whatever I sell the extra stuff for makes the mount even cheaper= win.

How does it scratch the phone? Or are you just having a hard time getting it pulled off?
Anyways...I bought http://www.walmart.com/ip/Grip-IT-Vent-Mount-Kit/20451899 this mount last Christmas on a roadtrip to hold my Inspire 4g in a CaseMate.
It holds my note just fine as well. Mounts in my vent, all buttons/ports are accessible, very adjustable, rotates for landscape just fine.
Depending on your vents it may work pretty well. It worked fine in my gfs focus, and is perfect in my jeep. Yes it fits my note with speck with room to spare.

I actually like the phone naked, Buy I did pick up the Samsung Leather Case
(about the size of a checkbook) that fits it nicely while in my pocket.
Yeah, I'm a naked phone user myself.
Any suggestions for universal ones or mounts that will work with an otterbox commuter?

I've had good luck with my Arkon mount. It even fits on my custom Nuvi-based mount for my car http://images47.fotki.com/v422/photos/7/7305/1460783/IMG_2462-vi.jpg
I'm soon to receive a tablet mount from them as well that I'm hoping to incorporate somewhere close to my dash.
Here's a start for you: http://arkon.com/Galaxy-S-II/index.html
This is the one that I got for my phone, works great with my cases (Ballistix and Seidio Active): http://arkon.com/Galaxy-S-II/megagrip-galaxy-s-2-flexible-windshield-car-mount.html
The camera is a little covered though, so I had taken a dremel and cut out a square piece to allow for it to show through. Sanded it off and it looks great, doesn't affect the performance of the mount at all.
EDIT: Supposedly the RAM mounts are very good as well, but are somewhat pricy. http://www.rammount.com/
I use the RAM mount on my motorcycle and it works well, so it should work great in a car too. It will also allow you to use the phone with any kind of case.

I've used Samsung and even one day bought one at Walmart both work equally well. I prefer using the Samsung with the app iOnroad. Grab that app if u don't have it very cool. In fact a similar option in my last car to what it can do cost an extra 2 grand.

That's cheap enough. Only worried about whether it works with a case - both in fitment and whether the charging pin is long enough to plug in still with certain cases.
Good price but it's a cheap product from China that make me worried for my note 3.

That one's smaller, not designed for the Note 3, connector is also the old USB 2.0 design
That cheaper plug still works (N2 plugs, etc still work on N3 just not USB3)
However, thats making the phone stand up on its own weight almost & is puttting more stress on the plug then there really should be (hence the cheapness, bad not thought out design) I actually had a iphone 5 dock from china that I got for $4 the lightning plug snapped off from the phones free standing weight.
Ive owned those cheapy chinese docks for other phones, and...Honestly NOT worth the money even at that price. Finding one that has actual support behind the phone would be better...

Not sure which one you have but the one posted here has back support. I use a Ringke Slim Case which perfectly snugs in the dock.
EDIT: I however just tried using my spigen bounce case and it wouldn't fit Good thing I stop using that case.

Yeah going with naked phone with cheap docks are scary
:cyclops:
Just ordered mine. Pretty cheap, even if I end up not using it like most of my gadget accesories.
There are too many types of this product. What is the best for note 2 and note 3?
does somebody here have it?
I would be glad if somebody will post here a link for ebay that fits.
thanks.
I use the iBolt. I know a few have had some issues with charging but mine works fine. Love that it does dock mode and is flawless with my asteroid stereo.

Had this one saved in my Amazon cart for a while now. I read about it in a post somewhere on XDA. The guy was very impressed by it.

For a dash/windshield mount, I picked up the iOttie Easy One Touch XL from Canada Computers after getting my Note 3. It fits it well, even with a case, and the adhesive on the suction cup seems to hold it more reliably (especially when the temperature changes wildly like in the winter with the heat on).

Thanks everyone.
What about a one with a cd slot?
I bought the iOttie XL from Amazon. I highly recommend it.
