Vent wouldn't block access to the buttons around the CD slot. One of the reasons I went for a vent mount.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Jrmiller:
have you looked into proclip?

They look pretty good! But also with the cdn dollar as it is, $50 US quickly becomes a lot more lol.

Also, that one linked doesnt ship to Canada :/

I went with a CD mount. I think placement will be best.

you'd think someone would make a better metal plate then the ones out there. Something that you wouldnt be ashamed to put on your device. Stylish even. I tweeted that dbrand (even slickwraps) should make their Nexus inserts for the letters magnetic. Not sure it would be enough to hang onto a base, but worth trying lol

I like the other mount better. I use my phone mainly in landscape mode. If be worried it would fall out of the cradle.

I bought this ibolt last week should be here on Monday.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] thewookiewacker:
Hi guys,

I got the Ibolt USB c, at first i thought it was going to be great, good construction and loads of mounting options, but when i used it, it was terrible, the connected USB c lead is thin and flimsy and only charges at about 1000ma.

Also your phone is mostly supported by the USB, putting strain on the socket.

i have returned to Amazon UK and have ordered a proclip now.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] just_visiting:
I might end up doing the same thing. I have the Spigen Neo Hybrid Ex on my 6P.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Chillz88:
Planning to buy one too. How is it? Where did you mount it?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] gd6noob:

[Nexus 6P Accessories] MaxNXS:
I got the iOttie Easy One Touch 2 yesterday. I looked around for the 3, but Amazon didn't have in stock yet and my local computer store had the 2 so I went for it.

First impressions are pretty good. I have a 2014 Mazda 3 and the dashboard surface is very curved. Installation was a breeze, it took literally 40 seconds. The arm has a bit of flexibility and bounces a bit while driving, but everything stays in place no problem.

I use a Spigen Ultra Hybrid for my 6P and the iOttie has no problem gripping on it. The only minor issue, if any, is that the gripping part matches exactly the Vol - button of the 6P so you won't be able to easily press it once the phone is locked in.

This is my first car mount so I can't compare it to anything else, but so far I'm happy with the purchase.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Viper Daimao:
I recently picked up an Anker suction mount when it was on sale http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Universal-Dashboard-Windshield-Smartphones/dp/B00PAJN32S but found the sides would hold down the volume down button on my 6p. It also left behind an indention ring on my soft foam dashboard. Does anyone know any way to remove it? If I can, I'd like to get a cd mount like Mountek nGroove http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004G1L52Q or the Mpow Grip Pro 2 http://www.amazon.com/Mpow-Universal-Holder-Samsung-Rotation/dp/B00PC29ETE, but if I can't remove it I may as well get another suction cup mount to cover it up and get the iOttie Easy One Touch 3 http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Holder-Samsung-Updated-Version/dp/B01BZC262Q
[Nexus 6P Accessories] gadget069:
I like the iotties but they are massive.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jswclw:
I had previously tried an iOttie but was not happy with the flex in the arm. It allowed the phone to move too much. It was not loose in the dock, the arm the extended from the base to the phone cradle just allowed for too much movement IMHO. That was with a Moto X Pure. I will say that I liked the method used for mounting and un-mounting the phone on the iOttie.

Now with the 6P, a similar size and weight phone, I was looking for something better. I settled on this dock from iBolt. I am pleased with it, although inserting and removing the phone is not as easy. Takes some practice since it involves aligning the bottom of the phone with the USB-C connector while the spring loaded upper bar is pushing down. On the positive side, when the phone it inserted, it is charging - no additional connections necessary.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] crucialcolin:
Flex and movement is an issue.

While ok with Nexus 5 I would not recommend the iOttie Easy One Touch 3 for the 6p or similar sized devices(even its specifically made for them) . The mount is just not big enough to reliable support the weight/size as the phone sticks out too far, particularly in landscape mode . Due to regular surface street road vibrations the part which sticks out quickly begins to work it way towards tilting to the ground. If you don't constantly readjust the mount while driving every few minutes I could easily see the 6P slipping out of the the cradle and falling to the floor(or worse out of the vehicle)!

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 PM ----------

* Forgot to mention I also noticed resonance in the phone itself due the 6P thinness when used in this mount. This could potentially exasperate the bending issue that some have been seeing.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Chillz88:
Do you use the ibolt with a case on your nexus 6p?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jswclw:
Yes, I use it with the case, but it isn't a massive case. My case is the Spigen Rugged Armor.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] marvi0:
This looks like what I need. Anyone else used this please? Am more concerned about reports of the magnet causing issues with the 6p?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RichJo86:
I'm using a simmilar system from Tetrax (Italy) and I have no issues with that. No problems navigating or such.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] asianrage:
I've been using it for a 2-3weeks now. Love it. If you have a case, you can place the metal plate between the case and phone. HOWEVER, the thickness, as well as the surface finish, of the case will be an important factor. If you stick the plate onto the back of the case, you'll be amazed at how strong the magnet is. I've not had any issues with the magnet.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] marvi0:
Oh great thanks. When you get a chance could you please post a picture of what the magnet looks like when sticked on the back of the phone please. Also some have mentioned issues with the screen sensor and magnet have you noticed anything?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] asianrage:
I didn't stick the metal plate on the phone, but rather, on the cases themselves. FYI, the magnets are part of the mount.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] bckrupps:
I have the iottie 3 and it works outstanding. Funny thing though is that they recalled them because of a spring design flaw. Mine actually broke also. Their customer service in incredible. They sent me a new mount redesigned and 2 extra tops in different orders. Apparantly their customer service is too good lol. Back to the point though it works outstanding. Very solid with lots of adjustments. I'm sure there are better and worse but for a $20 spot on amazon i have tried a lot and it's tough to beat imo.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Viper Daimao:
It doesn't interfere with the volume buttons?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] kellybrf:
I've tried I think every iottie and even with the telescope all the way in my phones bounce so much it's unusable. I love everything about them and try them again everytime a new one comes out but there is just so much wobble it's incredible

I just got this Aduro U-GRIP for my N6P to use in the car.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AX4A2P0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The rubber gripping clip mount is easy to slide into the vent slats & grips tightly without movement.

Swivel ball joint does 360° rotation so I always get the right screen angle esp. useful for sun glare.

Pretty compact & low profile.

Like most spring loaded adjustable mounts - this is NOT one handed operable.

But the springs for the holder's expandable jaw is not too tight so you get your phone in there without too much stress just with TWO hands.

The 2 rubberized clamps have deep grooved partitions to get the exact secure fit you want for your phone.

Unfortunately only comes in red.

Not sure if it will fit with otterbox type cases but for my Spigen Hybrid TPU case, it was a perfect fit.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Mister-C:
Hi, I am thinking of buying a Spigen Thin Fit case along with a magnetic car holder but am unsure whether this case will take a magnetic plate/strip inside. Can anyone recommend a magnetic car holder to go with this case?

I have this one:

http://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00QXYUTOE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s01

You just put a metal plate between the case and the phone and the car mount is magnetic. super easy
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dwswager:
I also have this Mountek CD Slot Mount. It is about as compact as you can get because it is really made for an Iphone 4/5. It holds my Galaxy Note 2 in an otterbox case (almost 3 years now), but just barely! And it grips strong enough to keep it vertical or horizontal. The real issue isn't size, it is depth of the phone with the case on it.

My only negative comment would be there is not much available tilt either side to side or up and down to this thing with my Note 2 mounted. If you have a completely vertical dash setup or one the has a large rake to the console, it might be difficult getting the phone into a good viewing position.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Velocifero:

Having recieved mine yesterday, I have noticed that my clamp type holder is not suitable on this phone due to the position of the power/volume buttons. It keeps pressing them both.

I like the idea of not having a case so dont fancy the magnetic one. Any other ideas?

Simple to make custom mount

I've already got a Brodit car-specific bracket which a Brodit holder is mounted on for my Nexus 5.

What I've done is to buy a swivel mount that I'll mount to the existing bracket and give me a common 4-prong connector.

Then I bought an adhesive plate that connects onto the 4-prong connector.

Finally I've bought a cheap hard shell case for the Nexus 6P which I will cut the top half off.

Connect the lower half of the case to the self-adhesive plate, then that to the swivel mount which I've screwed onto the Brodit bracket and I've got a custom mount that I can just slide the new phone into for £10.

If you've not already got a Brodit car-specific mount, they cost about £15. Alternatively the swivel mount comes with a foam adhesive sticker that can be used to mount it straight onto the dashboard without screwing into it.

It also comes with metal piece shaped like a circle with adhesive on the other side to stick it to a naked phone. Shown here as the circle:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/81Rzz5cJ7mL._SL1500_.jpg

Understandable if one doesn't want that on their phone though.

This is their pick of CD-mounted holders with the traditional grip; http://www.amazon.com/Exogear-ExoMo...B00G024X32&tag=thewire06-20&ascsubtag=WC15011

But the cost is double.

Thanks to Ovrclck and MrWilliams2 for info on their setup. I ended up buying the Proclip mount for my car and then jumped over Ram Mounts and purchased the X-Grip RAM-HOL-UN7U phone mount that I will attach to the Proclip. Can't wait for the gear to show up and to install. Thanks again!

I completely forgot about Proclip. I loved their mount for my Garmin GPS back in 2000! I'm going to see if there something that works for my car!

Is there a Proclip mount that works for the 6P or do people have to get 3rd party ones?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] effraie:
First time I read about proclip... Theyre dashboard mounts seems awesome... But is there any phone older for the 6p yet? (for the price, i expect it to fit perfectly...)

I've had proclip mounts for years, same mounts as brodit, currently I have the N6 version in all my vehicles and love it. I've opted for the hard wired versions and I did not tie them into the ignition switch so all of mine will charge even when the ignition is off. I'm sure the N6P holder will be made but it usually takes them a couple months after a phone is released. I'll be modding another proclip mount to work with my N6P, when I get it, until the N6P version is released.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dmarden:
I sort of like the high quality adjustable mounts... but I prefer ones that can be used with one hand, like the iOttie I have now. Unfortunately, the volume button placement is an issue so I am investigating options.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RED ZMAN:
Which iOttie are you using? I'm still waiting for my 6P and was hoping mine would work fine.

http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Holder-iPhone-Samsung-G4-Retail/dp/B00JRGOKQ8

More so, I wonder if there's a way to disable volume buttons. IE: get in the car, swipe over my NFC tag to raise volumes and turn on bluetooth/waze/beyondpod, and have it disable volume buttons. Then enable them when I get home at my home NFC tag.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dmarden:
That is the same one I am have. Until I find a replacement, I am putting the phone on the mount a little higher, instead of on the bottom leg thing. The side arms hold it well enough, I guess... but it's not ideal.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RED ZMAN:
How much higher would it need to sit? I may have a solution.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dmarden:
I can check more precisely next time I'm in the car, but... Not much, half an inch?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RED ZMAN:
See if you can measure it. I can think of 3 or so ways to work around it right now.

1. A rubber bumper mounted to the top of the bottom foot to sit the device higher.

2. Rubber hose, I've done this one before. Get a section of thick rubber hose and push it over that bottom foot. Your device now sits higher.

3. Bolt. Drill a hole through the bottom foot and put a bolt in it (rubber coat it if needed with plastidip or something similar) with a nut on the bottom. Also would make your phone sit higher. This one you could use as long as a bolt as needed and then a few washers or nuts to space it out and lock it in place.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dmarden:
Interesting solutions, I'll measure later on.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] TroyonXDA:
I'm new and can't post links, but I have a magnetic vent one that works really well. Not sure if that helps without a link, but it's small, circular, and my phone just sticks to it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Cares:
I can't tell but does this item come with everything I need to mount on my window? Or is it just the holder and I still need a mounting piece?

www.amazon.com/Ram-Mount-Universal-X-Grip-Phablet/dp/B00C7B2NV4
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dmarden:
That's just the holder... they have other listings for the holder plus the mount type.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dmarden:
Sorry for the delay here. Measurement looks to be .4", but the other issue with there is that the back/bottom of the holder makes it a little difficult (not hugely) to unplug the USB cable if you have it plugged in and lifted up in the holder.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] effraie:
Do you think that holder will fit n6p, with a case? http://www.proclipusa.com/mobile-de...proclip-holder-t1-246807.cmsv?p_leftorright=0
[Nexus 6P Accessories] bysleeper:
Depends on what case you are planning on using. That holder list the specifications that it can hold a phone up to 89mm in width and 10mm in thickness. The 6P naked is 77.8mm wide and 7.3mm thick.

So a large number of cases would fit unless you plan on using a case that bulks the phone up to something beyond the phone holder's listed specifications, either in width, thickness, or both.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] effraie:
Sounds good to me... Another question to proclip users : looking at the visuals, I fear it doesn't hold very strongly in horizontal position, especially this generic holder... Any thoughts about that?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] bysleeper:
The holder does mention it can be rotated for portrait and landscape view so it should be suitable. In saying that, I do understand your doubts as I personally have always felt the Brodit/ProClip phone holders were designed primary for the phone to be held in portrait (vertical) orientation rather than landscape (horizontal). As I result, I've never used the Brodit/ProClip phone holders and instead, I use the Herbert Richter universal large phone holder. I had now used the Herbert Richter phone holder for several years and it has simply worked well for me.

The Herbert Richter phone holder is mounted to the Brodit/ProClip mounts for my car.

Side note: I also have RAM mounts (X-Grip) and also, very good product. I had used the X-Grip attached to RAM's windscreen suction mount and it is probably the only one you can use it in, to give an example how good the suction is, car rallying without fear of suction failing.

EDIT: Should also point out that I believe the Herbert Richter universal large phone holder holds devices up to 85mm only.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] compchick813:
I have been using the Spigen Stealth and it's been working well. With the power/volume buttons you have to put the phone in to the side rather than centered, but I've found it to be stable so far.

+1 Proclip

I have N6 waiting on 6P. I have always used the Proclip mounts that has charging built in. But on the N6 I went with the universal mount which great I can adjust the width for any phone...I was coming from all Note phones. Tight, snug, fit! Since I have Proclip charged hardwired in I just removed the USB end from one of Note 3 charge mounts so cable end hangs free while still hardwired. This way I can plug the USB end in any phone. With the N6 I just bought a micro USB adapter go over the end to make it a USB C.

Proclip universal mount great love it for gps, music etc.

---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 PM ----------

With these larger phones I rarely have to do landscape for gps or anything with the Proclip. I have for a few videos for kids. Yes it held good. One, about half the phone is in the holder. I have the universal holder for nice fit not to snug just right and it has a cable plugged in bottom. I have a Dodge RT sport model car my average speed is 80-85 and in the curve with my modifications I can hit 40-50 and in that mount position does not move. Just my experience.

For those who are using mounts with magnets, is there a concern there? I mean usually battery and magnets don't play along well?

Batteries and magnets are fine together. The biggest potential issue is that the phone has a magnet sensor that shuts the screen off.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] akwally1:
For anyone who's interested in the ProClip mount for the 6P, I emailed them last month and they advised me that they should have a custom holder out for it within 4-6 weeks after the phone went live and they could get their hands on one. So I figure around the end of November they should have it ready.

I talked to them today too. They said end of November or December and they'll be ready with a 6P holder. They'll have a charger version too.
