Hi all. I purchased this from Amazon and it arrived yesterday. So far, it's just awesome. Small footprint, feels very sturdy, holds phone securely and allows you to adjust the angle it sits for optimal viewing. I did not notice my S6 Edge getting unusually warm like others have said about other chargers. For the money, I think it's great. Any questions, let me know.

A few questions for you:
** Are you using a case with your S6 Edge while charging?
** Do you have to move the phone around to find the sweet spot to get it to start charging?
** Does it hold the phone well if you have the charger angled a lot?

Hi. Thus far, I only have a thin plastic screen protector-ish thing on the back of the phone, but I am guessing it won't work with a case on very well - if at all. I imagine it depends on the case in question though. I have not had an issue where I had to find the sweet spot at all. I place it around the middle of the back and it just works!
I do have a case arriving today though, so I will test it out with the case on and report back.
For $25, I am very pleased so far. So many others were upwards of two to three times the cost (although some were cheaper too). Hope this helps.
EDIT: Okay, so my new Kavaj Tokyo case arrived and to my surprise, not only does the charger still hold my phone, it charges it through the case! Now I really love this case!!

Had one of these from ebay for my vibrant and the phone holder bracket kept coming out so I would retighten the lock screw on the back and it broke the connection to the phone holder bracket

Just an update...
This holder is still going strong , well worth it imo..
The holder bits actually pull apart so there are 4 bits holding the tab in place not 2 like in the pics (if that makes sense lol)
Please dont think of this as thread crapping... but why do I see no one talking about the actual Samsung charging holder? Is there something wrong with it?

No it's excellent! A bit pricy here in the UK so I got mine from a US ebay seller. I use it all the time when out driving. It's well engineered and functional. I'll post a pic of it some day....
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Got mine via amazon, but i am still using the air vent holder that used with my Vibrant, imo i will not use the windshield bracket as it it will not look good and blocks a lot of the windshield.
Bought one.. Out of stock, Back order. Hope its as good as you say !!!
I'm after a car phone holder with a USB connection built in. Has anyone come across one for a sensible price?
All I can find is the official HTC one which is over £50!! I've toyed with the idea of using a desk dock (£12), however I'm not sure whether this is a good plan as the phone's USB port will be put under some strain from the vibration of the vehicle which could lead to it being damaged.
EViS try ebay I got mine from there about a year or so ago, don't use it now (ebay that is )
I use this one in my car:
dealextreme.com/p/usb-ac-battery-charging-dock-cradle-for-htc-hd2-100-240v-44622
Works fine, connected both usb-connections to chargers... also charges extra battery.
Just attached with some welcro to the underside and the dash.....

Will that fit the TMOUS HD2?
I know a USB connection was required, but those are hard to find for a car cradle. I just got one of these for $7.50 on Amazon.

Card Cradle on Amazon
Works great. Sticks to my windshield and holds on. Pefect fit for my TMOUS HD2 in the holder with no lame thick padding. Camera functions also via an opening for it in the holder. Turns many ways for custom angles. I'm buying a second for my desk at work because I'm just that geeky.
Does that one shake while you driving?
I've got me self something like this but when i'm using it with eg. alaprecoreder app i cant get decent video....

It does just a little bit. I didn't think about that and video. I'll do a test video when I head out for lunch later.
*Edit*
I ran some video tests and was impressed with the results. If your car rides smooth, the holder should stay still. My truck does not ride smoothly but most of the time it worked and the video was very watchable. I only had issues with bumpy road spots, shifting, or when I got over 70 mph (112 kph). Not an issue with the holder, just my truck shaking some.
So I'm buying the Z2 tablet soon and I wanted to get a good case with it.
I looked around through the various cases, and I found this one I liked the most:
Coodio® Sony Xperia Z2 10.1 inch LTE Tablet 360 Rotating Stand Leather Cover Built-in Hand Grip Card Holder with Auto Wake Sleep Mode (Black). You can google it to find it on Amazon, I can't post links yet.
I like the rotating part so I can have my tablet stand vertical (for reading books and textbooks).
Anyone know if this is a decent case?
Are there any other cases that have the rotating thing so I can stand my tablet vertically?
Also will the case fit on the Wifi model? I checked the dimensions of both and they seem the same so I hope it will.

i am waiting for someone to buy and try these..lol
i hate the headphone jack being at the bottom ..so i want to know if using rotating case..the headphone can be plugged in while inside the case and using its stand..
I have the official case and it works perfect with headphones. Just fold it like that ....

Don't get sad; there's a secret about that headphones-friendly position of the original case proud owners seldomly talk about: Just look hard at it - and it will come down like a house of cards. You cannot use the screen if the cover is folded like that - just touch it and it collapses right away.
Does anyone have a motorcycle mount for S7 Edge? I have never used any of those. Maybe you could recommend some brands. I've searched through google and it looks very limited, thanks.

Look for Ultimate Addons cases. I have the one for the S5 and it's great! Loads of vibration protection and waterproof - including charging
RAM mount so I used a tefflezer (or something like that) yoke mount. Works really well.
The S5 case I had one of the clips snapped - they replaced the whole case withing 2 days. Their Customer Service is brilliant.
But the S5 case was about £30...

Can't recommend anything specific, but I would recommend something that completely encloses the phone and locks it in place, like this:

Many years ago I had a Palm Treo in a mount that simply clamped on the sides of the phone (similar to this):
Had an accident, and the phone flew about 30 feet down the road. Found the phone (with the antenna stub ground down), and the battery cover, but never found the battery.
Ram mounts are very secure, sold on Amazon. I use them on bikes, know people who use them on motorcycles.

Well, RAM mounts are the only ones I kinda 'like' so far. However, after doing some research I noticed some people had problems with their mounts losing phones (especially in horizontal mode). Can't say I am convinced... Would rather get something like @meyerweb posted in his first picture.
EDIT: Alright, as I ain't trusting this RAM thing (simply found too many negative reviews) I came upon something like this http://www.givi.it/motorbike-accessories/Supports-for-mobile-devices-and-power-supply-kits/S957B
Givi is solid when it comes to bags and stuff but how about this holder? Can't find many reviews but it looks neat.
Just recived the little gem in the mail yesterday took about a week for shipping from China to arrive. And so far I'm using with my otterbox symmetry case and it doesn't protrude the case and no more fumbling to get the charger in correctly. And it works great with fast charging and File transferring from pc
Will post more pictures later if anyone want to see any.

I'll order a few just for the heck of it and pass them out to some friends. I'll let you know of their feedback.
Thanks.
I bought something similar from Wish.com a year ago, it worked great but it eventually killed the charging circuit on my Galaxy Tab 3. I'm a little nervous about using electronics from discount websites from China.

I ordered mine from Amazon.
They might be originating in China though... but these days a lot of things are unfortunately.
I used one for a short time, didn't last long. The magnetic part didn't hold the best, although it held better than I thought it would to be honest but it still wasn't enough. The LED on it was extremely bright and bothered me at night. Also they're a pain to remove if you go to plug into a computer with a different cable or want to use the Gear VR.
In my opinion I'd be more interested in a case that converted our connectors to USB-C so you still get the ability to reverse the connections while at the same time is a good hold if it's slightly tugged.
