That 'magnetic' phone mount ad kept popping up on my feed last month, so I finally caved and bought one for $24.99.
It arrived in a tiny, flimsy box and the magnet was so weak my phone slid right off the dashboard on the first turn. Has anyone actually found a car mount that works as well as the ads promise?

My buddy got one of those from a gas station, the kind with the sticky gel pad. It stuck to his dash for a whole week before it gave up. We were driving and his phone just launched into the passenger footwell, screen cracked on the edge of a floor mat. He ended up super gluing the mount to his dash, which worked until he tried to remove it and took a chunk of plastic with it.

What changed your mind about those ads? I bought a cheap one that fell apart too, but then I got a solid mount from a real electronics store. The good ones cost more but they actually work.

Sammartinez is right about the good ones costing more. I read a whole forum thread where people said to avoid anything under forty bucks.
