Where to put phone in RX (merged phone mounts thread)
#76
Don't know your car's dash layout, but in my 2010 RX I use an Anker CD slot holder. I've tried a half-dozen devices over the years, this is by far the most stable and it doesn't interfere (much) with controls.
Remarkable how many different ways folks are mounting phone in cars.

I looked at several and decided on this mount:
I place it on the front windshield on the left. It is out of the way and does not interfere with my front visibility. I'm able to keep my eyes on the road.
I considered the magnet version of a mount but some reviewers indicated that it interfered with charging so I stayed away from those types.

4th Gen Rx Phone Holder Charger
What's evrryone using for phone holder on their 4th gen RX?
I'm looking for one that charges wirelessly, maybe something that doesn't nt clip to the vent, magnetic maybe.

Where are people putting their cell phones in the 2016 RX? Inside one of the cup holders or somewhere else?
I tried opening that smaller compartment in the center console on the left hand side but my Samsung Galaxy S5 does not fit there.
I was surprised to find out my phone actually fit better in the NX console than the RX.
Anyone else have this issue? Would like to know how people are handling this?
Any feedback/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've been considering buying the weathertech phone cup holder. Seems very sturdy, not wobbly and can charge while using it. My Samsung Note 9 fits in the jphone slot just under the dash and the small compartment on the left of my steering wheel in my 2020 RX 350 fsport and also fit in the compartment to my left of the steering wheel in my 2017 RX 350 fsport. Here is the link to weathertech cup holder.

Proclip mount
Have you looked at ProClip? I've had one on my last 4 cars and like the construction, fit, and the way it mounts. Here is a link for the 2016 RX

No, I'm not good on things blocking the air or sitting anywhere on my dash. There was a slot in the rx 2017 I had and now 2 slots int he 2020 I use. If I get something extra I'll get the weathertech cup holder, easier for me that way.

Here is mine:
Gravity Car Phone Holder 360 Degree Rotatable Invisible Alloy Car Mount Air Vent Dashboard Gravity Mount GPS Stand Cell Support
I've must have gone through nearly a dozen phone holders, most of which have terribly designed mounts that fall out of the vent. This one is nice and doesn't look too intrusive in its folded state. I simply like to keep my phone screen under my infotainment so that I can keep my eyes on both if necessary. Most of the times, I'm running two maps, Apple maps for guidance (infotainment) and Waze for alerts (phone) so vent mounting is a must.
