How To Select Iphone 6 Plus Car Cradle

By Dave Hunter


In the past year, it's been estimated that 64% of American mobile phone users use an iPhone. Apple also earns million of dollars from producing accessories that are exclusive for Apple customers such as lightning cables while some accessories like earphones and an iPhone 6 plus car cradle, for example, can be under a different brand. This article will help you choose the best cradle for your iPhone 6.

If your iPhone has a casing, settle first if you want to keep it or you are willing to remove it when you use the mount. This is the typical mistake of mount buyers and they will find themselves either getting rid of the case or the mount eventually. If you want to keep the casing, pick a universal mount. The holder will be flexible enough to accommodate the extra bulk.

There are many minimalistic mounts that are in line with the taste of the Apple user. The magnetic mount for example, although very small, works best without a phone case. Some custom mounts will be very model specific. Any other phone will slip and slide.

Second, you need to pick where you need to place it in the car. The most prominent ones are the suction cup mounts, which are normally connected to the windshield. You need to check with your state's rules' however if they permit this kind of installation. Ensure the suction cup is 3 inches in diameter and won't obstruct the view of the driver.

Air vent mounts can be tricky to use because some vents are too narrow for the clips. It's dependability also relies on the stability of the vents. If the vents are broken, the mount will droop. This type however put the phone in a less conspicuous place, away from prying eyes.

Mirror mounts are the newest models and they have clasps that will be connected to the rear view mirror. Many users prefer this type because it is in line with the driver's sight. It means that whenever he uses the gadget, he can still see the road on his peripheral vision.

The lighter mount is the best type to be bought if the lighter port is vertical. You also have to check if the port is deep enough to support the weight of the phone. Otherwise, it will topple over. You also have to take care that it will not obstruct you from using the stick shift.

If you haven't decided on the type yet, or if you want to give it as a gift, it is best to get one that has different attachments. These attachments can make the mount for a vent, for the dashboard or for the windshield. Although it can be more expensive, the user is free to change the mount's position if one doesn't work for him.

Cradles that have been endorsed by Apple are also worth looking into because the company will most likely endorse the ones that will improve the user experience. You can also check some that has additional use like amplifying sound and double as charger. Finally, do not buy second hand mounts because chances are, the adhesives will not stick well and that the handle has been abused already.
