Minimalism — open spaces, minimal clutter and devices that are designed to be sleek and low-profile — is all the rage, and has been for a while. It sounds great, and in some cases it definitely can be a great aesthetic choice. But there are cases when minimalism, and deliberately trying to take up as little space as possible, just doesn't work. This car mount from Lisen is one very good example.
There are countless different kinds of the best car phone mounts, each capable of supporting your phone in a different way. My personal preference is for suction cups, since they tend to offer more versatility than vent mounts and other options.
