Looks sturdy, I will try it this weekend.
Cheers!

That looks a lot like this Arkon mount but with a different head / holder attachment. Theirs is adjustable; I'm wondering how well the holder that came with your mount fits. Your thoughts?

I have the same holder as the OP. It works really nicely.

2 way adjustable with knobs, I stuck the suction cup against a window inside, holds up firmly. the holder for the cellphone goes on tight. for 9$ im really satisfied with how sturdy the unit is, the plastic is not cheap, i'd be really suprised if this ever broke with normal day to day use.

Second that. Or is it third

How is the spring on the suction cup lever? Usually they are weak or the plastic for the cam lock is very weak so after a couple months they fall off the windshield.

HTC official pouch for EVO

So before I sold my og EVO I got me the HTC pouch from amazon and it runs for like 6-7$ most of the time, is nice, it protects the phone and is magnetic close, the phone fits tight but loose enough to get it out without problem, I like my phone "naked" so if you use cases then it might be a problem, well just want it to share
Here is a link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003DZ13P0/ref=mp_s_a_28?qid=1310950676&sr=8-28
And here are some pics of how it looks

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
Is there a belt clip on the back, or spring clip? Just curious, and thanks for sharing.

Looks like a good pouch case for $10.

If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
I have the same leather pouch. Bought mine at Best Buy for $25 about a year ago when I got the Evo 4G. It fit the 4G perfect but its too tight on my 3D for my liking...
i have the same one.... love it

Windshield Mount

Just recieved this one, ordered through ebay, and it's of very nice quality. It fits my note perfectly, too perfectly actually, as it wont fit with a case on it. But I like TPU cases that are fairly easy to remove, so I'll just remove the case when I want to mount it in the car

that one looks quite nice, but doesn't seems safe, only 3 point hold
i'm just using a generic one for all cell phones from DX
it works way better
since i keep switching phones faster than i switch accessories, might as well use a universal phone mount for the car

False, fits like a glove and very secure. No way Note will fall out without actually depressing the release tab as it's not a spring load, but formed to fit the note.

Fair enough, but I prefer a custom fit to a generic. I find that a custom fit is far more secure than some foam and springs, and it looks better/cleaner too

Zenus Case Mini Review

So i opted for the folio wallet vase in black leather patterned in carbon fiber. The look and feel is extremely high quality and my note fits very snugly. I've already dropped my note (on purpose) from varying heights and i can attest to the cases ruggedness. It will protect the phone. The snap is very small and aided by a magnate. I feel comfortable leaving this rig in my back pocket and sitting on it. Also the snap fold out of the way when the phone is open. The kickstand feels very durable, though I'm sire its just high quality plastic with leather cover. My only wishes is that there were nfc tags and if they could somehow turn off the screen when closing the cover. All in all a great purchase at $60 on amazon.

I just bought proximity screen off and it has a setting to turn off and on with the opening and closing of the cover.

Theres an app called smart cover that will turn the screen on or off when opened or closed like the ipad. been using it with the samsung flip cover and works great
After a few days with the case I'm very satisfied. I've dropped my phone several times and everything remains intact. The only problem is the when you have things in the wallet side, it puts the case at an odd angle and the kickstand doesn't work.

What? No pics with it on your phone?
I do not recommend this. I got this even before my note arrived. It feels nice and not too bulky, but cutout are little off everywhere. Good for temporary protection for the minimalistic look , but I couldn't stand for the awkward cut outs for camera, power... And volumes... Pain on my eyes once it catches

Hmmm, I've got no problem with the cutouts on mine, they are perfect. I would compare this to the leather case for the iPhone 5S, although this isn't real leather, it is very nice and adds no weight really.

Isn't there any thing that can be attached to the Note 3??

Hello,
I had an Nokia N97 and I could easily attach my stylus to the phone (or any thread like in the pic :cyclops: )
I like to have a thread or something that can wrap around my hand in case it falls or even if someone tries to steal my phone

Does the note 3 has this opening (where you can attach a thread to) or even any Accessory (a case or something like that)?
Thanks
Nope. I'm sure there's a case out there with one though

Although you can't attach one to a naked note 3 you can get a case that has a lanyard hole... The trident aegis case has one.. http://www.tridentcase.com/shop-products/samsung-galaxy-note-3/aegis-case-samsung-galaxy-note-3.aspx

That's one is expensive
Anyway, I got the idea
I can buy any case and make 2 holes to make that loop
Thanks everyone for your help

Incase you don't want to do that. The supcase has holes for it and is pretty reasonably priced. http://www.amazon.com/SUPCASE-Samsu...qid=1385375516&sr=8-1&keywords=supcase+note+3
