A car offers three places to mount: the air vent, the windscreen or dashboard, and the headrest, which is more for a tablet. There are three ways of gripping, too – a magnet, as on the MagSafe-compatible Joyroom and Spigen models; a clamp that closes under the phone's own weight; or a plain spring clip. If the mount also charges, check that the case is not too thick for the magnet; a separate metal plate helps where needed.
