it’s not very often that i feel like i got a fair deal for my money. i was very surprised with this product though. i bought it on a whim, not really expecting it to work.
my first impression was that of solid construction. very heavy duty plastic. the flexible neck is thick and strong and won’t move even holding the heaviest device.
i was fairly sure this wouldn’t mount well in my 2010 honda fit. the cup holders are all a little oddly shaped. one was small. the other was very large and heavily tapered. another was more rectangular than round. turns out it mounts steadily in all of them.
the device holder aspect it ratcheting. it has pads to hold the device on the sides and two little pegs that fold out to hold the bottom. the pads on the side additionally expand vertically to adjust where they hold the device. all in all, ingeniously flexible in the number of ways it can adjust. considering your device may have controls on the sides and ports on the bottom this is important.
as far as i can tell it would fit just about any size device i can think of. i happen to have a nexus one that is very close to the size of an iphone 3gs.
a note on price / buying options. i paid $15.22 for this. when searching under “nexus one”, i found the same bracketron unit listed for $26.99 (plus shipping) from a different seller. quite a difference. there is also another brand, “gomadic”. they have a unit that, as far as i can tell, is identical to this model (bracketron). however, it’s $29.99.

I’m pleasantly surprised! This fits my HTC Droid Incredible perfectly, and would also work with an Ipod or GPS unit.
The side arms are independently adjustable, so that each “finger” can be spread apart as far as needed to keep volume control buttons and the charge port accessible. I have them far apart on one side of the unit, and close together on the other…because I can.
The neck bends like sturdy heavy wire and holds its shape.
The base is expandable with an easy turn of the dial, to accommodate wider cup holders. But the best feature is the easy rotation that “pops” into place, allowing one to use their phone in a vertical position, or quickly change it to horizontal view with one hand. The bottom supports fold up or down as needed.
The plastic is heavy and solid feeling–I have confidence this will hold up for some time. But it also came with a lifetime warranty if registered at Bracketron’s website.
There was an extra flat plate in the package that would slide onto the base, but has no grip fingers. It has 4 screw holes or could be used with velcro or foam tape. The instructions don’t mention the part. I assume it’s for permanent attachment to the back of an item that would not fit within the approximate 4 1/2″ grip, such as an internet radio receiver or iPad.

I tried 3 different ones for my Ipod touch. This fit the best in my 2009 corvette. It also was the least expensive of the 3.

I bought this product to hold my ipod touch so it would be easier (and safer) to quickly unlock the screen while I was driving. I has worked out great and I’ve also found that it adjusts wide enough to hold my TomTom GPS. No more suction cup marks on my windshield! The only down side I’ve found with it is that it’s a little cumbersome and when I put it in my Mazda Protege 5, with the location of the cupholders I have to work it a little to bend it out of the way of the gear shifter. Other than that it’s great! I’d much rather lose a cupholder when I want to than have to permanently install something inside my car.

I tryed this product with my GPS and am very pleased. It holds the unit firmly and can be adjusted to be used by the driver or passenger.
