Differences between Magnetic Mobile Phone mounts and Vent Mounts

There are a number of different types of mobile phone mounts available today.  Two similar types are the vent mount and the dashboard mount. Both use magnetic s to hold your phone. These smart phone riders allow you to attached your phone to a windshield or vent and talk hands free or use map apps or navigation devices.

If the two are compared to one another. The Vent Mount only attaches to the air vent in your car, so they can only attach in a few places. Some car vents have a minimum depth so not all vent mounts can work on all cars vent systems. Yet a windshield mount works on all windshields for both front and rear windows of your car. Vent mounts can damage your vents over time as a smartphone is fairly heavy and the vents are not made to handle the stress. They also obstruct your air vent, so if you're cold or hot you will have this phone mount slowing you're cooling or heating. Also if you're heating your car then the vent will also heat your phone. Both situations are not ideal.

The Windshield or Dashboard mounts don't have these problem. The windshield mount maybe further away from you then the vent mount, but well within reach for speaker phone usage and to access navigation equipment or apps.

The numerous draw backs of a vent mount provide the windshield/dashboard mount as a ideal alternative between the two products. The vent mount can cost less but there are too many limitations. Take a look at the Nettohome magnetic car mount via amazon. Just type Nettohome in the search or see how it works on youtube just search Nettohome there also.
