Can't wireless charge with a metal plate for a magnet mount on the back of the phone.

Beatsonic mount if you can get it still. I went to a magnet mount but still use Beatsonic base to attach it.

Otherwise RAM makes really solid options.

Another recommendation for ProClip. I've had mine about 2 years with zero issues.

The magnet mounts are shaped like rings so the phone can still wirelessly charge.

I have this Natomount.

Can anyone verify a good vent phone mount? Not sure where I can stick a magnet, I don't have a surface for it. It'll be either too low or too high so a vent mount would be perfect

Would seriously consider a magnetic one, I ended up springing on the below for my Galaxy S9+.

https://www.ft86speedfactory.com/sco...ent-mount.html

Putting the larger magnet plate on the bottom half of the case, below the "wireless charging surface", hasn't affected my ability to charge it on its stand at home, and it's a pretty stiff fit on the left center vent. Your mileage may vary, however.

No worries, it’s been my favorite mount so far but I need to mount the metal piece on the back of my case so it holds a little better on winding roads.

Do you have the charge cable going to the USB right under it or to one of the other charge ports?

I just bought one this week from Best Buy for $20 on sale

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/iottie-...?skuId=6220244

Not a vent mount but I have it stuck to the little triangle window up front so its about at vent height. Very happy with it so far.
