Default Cell Phone Poll

Hello all, id like to start out by saying that i am new on the forums here so id like to ask a "just for fun" sort of question. I just recently bought a 2008 Lexus IS250 and just wondering where the rest of you put your cell phone. I cant seem to find a decent place to put it and i hate driving with it in my pocket.

Thank you. And good idea. I thought about sliding the center console just a bit backwards and letting it sit there but wanted to see what some of you guys did.

Over one of my air vents. I got a magnetic phone holder that slides into the vent. Keeps my phone nice and cool in the sun since it overheats with use while plugged into my iViC.

How does it hold up on the air vents while driving, does it move around? I used to have a magnetic holder too but it had adhesive on the back of the magnetic plate to keep it stationary where ever i had placed it.

I had a phone holder that clipped onto the vents but honestly never used it. The cup holder works great for my HTC M8.

Usually it just stays in my pocket; isn't that the point of bluetooth?

When I use Waze, I prop it up by the ashtray (landscape mode).

I just put it in the cup holder. I have a Galaxy S6 with a Lifeproof case and it fits snug, I want to get a mount though.

I use the cup holder first. If that's not free, I use the ashtray.

I just place my note 4 under my left leg where I sit . Sorta on the edge of my seat so to speak. I don't know why but I've just always sort of done that? Lol. It works great for me ^-^
