Bracket is perfectly serviceable and as per description. The only problem is that in my case (I have a Mazda MX5) it means the bracket protrudes into the leg space of the passenger and is uncomfortable against their knee. For that reason its come back out and won't be used. Would be a decent bit of kit if that didn't happen however. Also, very pricey for what it is, would expect it to cost £25 not £50. Seems to be a common complaint and I can see why. Cheers

The tape supplied is not strong enough for the holder. Ended up using a couple of screws Stand quality is good

Babol Website says they have the item in stock then have to wait 10 for the item to come from Brodit before delivery

I am on holiday in Scotland, and have therefore not been able to pick up the parcel from my delivery address, where it was probably delivered the day I set out to drive north..... so am not in a position to write a review .....

The screws were really hard to screw, and they are longer than the thickness of the piece they are screwed to, making them protruding on the other side. Not the quality I'm used to with Brodit.

Great product but took an age to arrive and no updates to when I would receive it.

A good product. It fits solidly to the dashboard of the VW Crafter enabling me to just click the phone into, and take out of place without supporting the cradle unit itself. No wobbles or rattles while driving either. My only criticism.... I have a usb-c sockets in my van and even the cable direct from Apple does not fit/click in place at the bottom of the cradle unit. It has to be modified and stuck to fit the hole. If you have the standard iPhone cable it fits fine. The cradle itself deserves 5 stars, However, i gave it 3 for this issue

Awesome product. Shame about the delay and communication about the delay. But worth the wait. Will never buy a cheap POS off of Amazon that is for sure.

Over the years I have updated my phone and the car mount a number of times. The mounts are good, strong and reliable. Sadly the delivery is slow and unpredictable, sometimes waiting over 2 weeks for delivery, but as Babol is the only place get these mounts, we just have to put up with it. If I could source these mounts elsewhere I would.

Although I was assured this item was supposed to be specific for my car it would not fit and had to be returned. I am still waiting for my refund. A very neat attachment but it was an expensive item to purchase a Pro Clip and attachment for my sat nav cost £34.99 not quite sure how they can warrant charging that price for what it is!

Not very clear that I needed to order two separate elements for the Brodit Car phone holder

The phone holder itself (iPhone 6S with data connection) is OK but nothing special - the flock style covering to mount looks like it will wear away quite quickly, but nonetheless does the job. The mount though was a big disappointment. It works, and is probably better than a vent based alternative, but it could be made much much better. It was unclear from website images how actually it was fitted to dash. I had assumed it would slot under the trim panel that surrounds the radio unit (a simple clip fit element) or perhaps even bolt onto the bolt that retains bottom-left corner of radio itself (under the trim panel). But this was not the case - instead it clips into the gap between the edge of the radio unit and the inner edge of the trim panel. This is less than ideal for two reasons - first the clip on mount will prevent removal of the radio trim panel in future (and it will be hard to remove the clip on mount without damaging either it or the trim panel as there is a glue pad sticking part of clip on mount to the trim panel); second the mounting position requires you to distort the LH edge of the radio unit to get the clip under - which is both quite hard to do and puts radio unit itself at risk of damage. The supplied spudger (small bit of plastic for forcing the radio edge apart from trim) just about survived the installation (but can't see it being much good for anything else now) - and the edge of the mount also took some stress damage during installation - it seems only way to get the lip of the mounting unit into the opened up gap is to jam one end in and then slide the rest in after - but this takes multiple goes to get right and each time the plastic of the lip gets more damaged - eventually (if you had to take too many goes) I think it would become so weak as to not be usable; fortunately I got the thing in place before this happened, but would not expect to be able to reinstall it should I ever have to remove it.

I am sorry the delivery took longer than expected during these times, we are working hard to try and speed up the process of goods entering the UK.

I thought I was buying direct from Brodit. Ended up coming from Babol??? Order update lacked delivery info, as although the items were supposed to be in stock, the order took two weeks to arrive.

Sorry for any confusion with the name, Babol operate the Brodit UK online store. You're in safe hands, as between us we have over 100 years experience of the Brodit product and work very closely with the brand in Sweden. Unfortunately one of the items on your order was a special order and the reason for the delay in shipping.

Great equipment and reputation but not that durable unfortunately. Fitted my cradle and the bottom fitment snapped against a flimsy plastic car vent.

Excellent products, nothing else like them on the market. Infinitely adaptable. Just a pity about the delivery. Products showed as being in stock, but took 3 week to arrive.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I am sorry for the delay in receiving your order. One of the items was designed for a left hand drive vehicle, which would always be a special order as not held in stock, and I am sorry if you did not see this at the time of ordering. The lead time for these is typically 7-10 working days, however with your order being placed just prior to Christmas and then being held at the ports this extended the usual lead time. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused by the delay. Kind Regards, Customer Services

Product quality and service are excellent. However, on this occasion I felt the design of the angled Proclip mount for a Volvo XC40 lacked “angle”. The phone is too square to the dashboard rather than facing the driver. It needs the angle improving by a further 5-7 degrees.

We are sorry to hear the angle isn't quite enough for you, when combined with a Brodit holder, you will be able to achieve a movement of 20˚ in every direction. Alternatively if the ProClip is being used with a third party holder or mount, then we would have a solution to adjust the direction of where the face plate points. Please see Brodit item 215162 for an additional 10˚ angle or if you have any queries please contact our customer services on 01905 677555.

The phone holder was alright. Good quality and easy to fit but the design of the holder isn't great for Pixel phones. Because it grips the side of my phone it keeps activating my google assistant. I have turned down the squeeze sensitivity to get around the issue but now mu interaction with that app isn't as smooth as it used to be. There was no clear explanation as to how the holder worked, it was just selected from make and model, kinda wish I'd just bought a cheap holder tbh.
