<b>Magnet vs. Scissor</b><br> <b>Magnet -</b> We had long been skeptical of magnetic phone mounts, but it turns out they are pretty awesome. Since most of us have a protective case on our phones, sliding the included little plate inside the case makes for an excellent magnetic connection between the device and the mount. This magnetic mount is so quick and easy to use it is our recommendation for a daily driver. <br> <b>Scissor - </b>We designed the first version of this phone holder 10 years ago. Universal phone holders tend to be bulky, clumsy and cheap plastic; this is a simple, machined aluminum design that (with a size upgrade for 2019) can fit any phone on the market. These phone holders are assembled by hand in our shop and they are a little more expensive than the magnet. The scissor has a stronger grip on the phone than the magnet does. <br><br> <b>Location, location, location</b><br> Your device is so much more than a phone. We use our smartphones as advanced GPS devices with turn by turn directions and traffic avoidance. These crazy valuable features of your phone are really tough to take advantage of unless you have the phone secured where you can see it. This Gemini puts your phone in a better viewing location than any other car phone mount could; it attaches to existing holes on the back of your tachometer. Once installed the phone location can be adjusted easily by pivoting the on the bracket, just move it and it stays put. Both the Magnet and Scissor will then allow the phone to rotate into portrait or landscape mode.<br><br>This mount is designed to fit 3rd generation MINIs:<ul><li>F55 MINI 5-Door Hatch 2015-2022</li><li>F56 MINI Hatch/Hardtop 2014-2022</li><li>F54 MINI Clubman 2016-2022</li><li>F57 MINI Convertible 2016-2022</li><li>F60 MINI Countryman 2017-2022</li>
