Scosche MagicMount Pro 2

The Scosche MagicMount Pro 2 distinguishes itself in the crowded magnetic mount market with its innovative and highly practical swing-arm design. Unlike traditional fixed-arm or ball-joint mounts, this model features an articulated arm that can be extended, retracted, and angled through a wide range of motion. This allows drivers to position their phone significantly closer or farther from the dashboard, helping to minimize glare, improve reach, or find the perfect spot in vehicles with deep or unusually shaped dashboards. The magnetic attachment itself is powerful, utilizing a strong magnet that securely holds phones equipped with MagSafe cases or with the included adhesive metal plate attached to the back of the device or its case. The mount can be installed as an air vent clip or on the dashboard, offering good versatility. The ability to rotate the phone 360 degrees on the magnetic plate further enhances viewing angle customization. However, the very flexibility that is its greatest asset can also be a minor drawback. The multi-jointed arm, while sturdy, may transmit more vibration or exhibit a slight bounce on particularly rough roads compared to a more rigid, direct-mounted solution like the iOttie iTap 3. It is also important to note that this is solely a mounting device; it does not include wireless charging, so a cable must be used if the phone needs power. For users who struggle to find an ideal viewing position with standard mounts, or who frequently switch between portrait and landscape orientations and appreciate extra adjustability, the Scosche MagicMount Pro 2 provides a unique and effective solution that prioritizes customizable placement above other features.
