We compared two suction-mount car phone holders: the Blukar Car Phone Holder and the VANMASS Top Car Phone Holder.
What we looked at
Suction cup design, mounting flexibility, and price.
The verdict
If you want the lower price on a 360°-rotating, one-button-release holder, the Blukar is the value pick, at £9.99. If you would rather pay £13.00 more for a larger, upgraded 69mm suction cup rated for 85+ lbs of stability and Military-Grade Drop Test certification, the VANMASS is the stronger-hold option, at £22.99.
A £9.99 suction-mount holder with one-button release.
