Will this bend the air vent over time due to gravity and the weight of the phone?

No it will not. The unit has 2 small beams that support most of the weight. Good item

It hasn't bent mine so far. I really really like it and would recommend it. Cheers! :)

I don't think so. I have a 5c phone and it isn't causing any deformation. The only catch is the loss of ventilation flow; but this is minor. I love mine so far.

I have had no problems with bending the air vent. The phone does get cold when the air conditioner is running and hot when the heat is running. :)

You will see on the sides that hold the phone, apply some pressure with your thumb and your index finger on one side till the edge of it bend and continue to go along the edge till you phone comes out. Sort of like popping a zit. Good question, I never thought of it till you asked.

I have not tried to bend it that much. I would be afraid to deform the case. Im sure it would touch end to end though.

yes it's pretty steady for holding the phone itself. But whether is it shaky actually depend on your vents. My vents is pretty easy to go up and down, so when i mount it on the vent, the weight of the phone will lower the vent to the bottom. so it's not a perfect angle to view the GPS when drive. but it still can do its job.

Hello! I have never had issue with the phone slipping and falling for that reason. While it certainly will not hold on a severe incline or if knocked with force, there are no issues in normal activity or useage. Thanks.

It will bend quite well, but would not suggest bending it in half. I do not bend it in half. After doing this for some time it may deform and damage it.

Yes it can. However I would recommend getting a "CD slot mount cell phone holder." I found this vent mount version unstable. For instance, if I made a hard turn the whole mount would come off and fall on the floor! Just search the quoted phrase above to find a much better solution.

Yes. The magnetic rings that come with them are bendable. I had to do that with my LG G3 and they work fine.

No, it will bend. The best I can describe it is like a yoga mat, if that helps

I think it is highly unlikely that it will bend. It is a fairly heavy gauge metal.

It will not bend easily. It's made of (I think) composite cardboard. It's very hard and inflexible.

It probably should since the width increases to fit the necessary size phone, then tightens to secure it

If you have a good bender it should do just fine I've had no problem with bending it and keep it bent. Added a bit of heat to the bend to keep it bent.

It's a very thin metal that is pretty easy to bend. Depending on how much it needs to curve, you might need to be concerned about scratching up the tablet back if the metal no longer sits completely flush.

Unless it is a sharp bend, then no. I believe over time it will start to lose it and flatten but so far mine has been holding up great!

Of course it will.The phone wil also become a projectile it the airbag ever goes off.

Yes, I think it will It is holding my iPad Air so firmly at any angle above 5 degrees And it can bear upto 5 kgs as written
