How long is the flexible arm? I'm concerned that it won't long enough to get the phone much above the seat.

It's roughly about a foot and a half to two feet long. I would have to go measure to be sure. I have it in my sonata and it's at perfect height by the console

the arm is about 18 inches long and it will reach well above the seat. ( unless you have a pick up truck or large SUV.) for me this was the best way to mount my cell phone and i could not live without it.

About 20 inches total. My phone sits about 8 inches above the seat and 2 inches higher than the console of my Prius. When I first installed it, I thought it was too high but it has proven to be perfect.

The arm is about 18" Long. The mounting plate has several holes in it to allow a variety of mounting options. It just depends on where your seat bolt is located. I have also seen people mount this directly to their floorboard with sheet metal screws. If you have a tall tunnel between the seats, this might get it up higher, although if you go that route, you should first make sure that the screws don't wind up going into anything important, like a brake or fuel line.

mine is 18" long , once I flexed it to view the phone the way I want it sticks up 16", you need to measure the distance between the bolt that holds your seat to floor and the top of the seat ... in my car that distance is 9", this holds my phone at about the same level as the radio .... so it makes it easy to view the gps while driving :)

On this model SM488, the length of the flexible aluminum mounting arm is 18". However, if you need longer, Arkon does offer a 22" version of the mounting pedestal. Unfortunately, it's not available in a bundle with the universal smartphone holder. The model of the 22" pedestal is GN088-L22-SBH. For more info on it, email feedback@arkon.com

Without the extension, NO. With the extension, it is no problem. I think by design it is long enough to reach the armband, not the waist.

It is bonded by it's limitations - at about 2.5 inches you create stress on it - "do-able" but not much beyond that, if you asked me about 3 inches, I would say you are better-off duct-taping your phone... sorry if this does not help.. we use ours to help GPS in the car or hold my wife's phone on the coffee table....

The rubber arms of the RAM Mount are pretty long. It should not have any trouble accommodating your Note with extended battery.

I don't have any measuring instruments with me right now, but I'm sure that it's 2.8 inches or less at the top point of the curve. I saw below that some say it won't stay on the cradle when hung vertically. IT WILL, but the tab that it hangs on needs to be pointing up. There is a removable plastic tab in the cradle that comes with the "hook" turned inside--so that the consumer can't see it. The little plastic piece is obviously movable. This "hook" will hang up the phone too. The handset is heavy enough that it stays pretty well.

It's somewhat adjustable/flexible (though very sturdy), but I'd say it puts the center of the phone screen about 6 inches above the top of the cup holder. FWIW, I love this thing.

If you have an armchair armrest that is not much longer than where you rest your arm, this 6 pocket arm rest organizer may not be the best for your use. I bought it for my lady's use because the armrest area on her chair allows her enough room to place the organizer at the most forward part of the armrest and still leaves her room to rest her arm comfortably. I can't use it on my chair due to the length of the organizer. Pay close attention to the information listed for ANY armrest organizer. It usually tells you the dimensions of the product.Joe

Hello, it does not extend very far at all. Just the depth of the keyboard is all.

The support is adjustable at both ends , I found the item far to short . It needs to be a bit longer giving you more support to more of your arm.

when the phone/device is inside, it is hard to get a tight fit on my arm and I am 5'4" and 130 lbs. It kept slipping off. Probably because phones aren't rounded! I would say if you're smaller than me, it might be hard to get a tight fit.

I use mine for my nokia Lumia 920 which is a rather large heavy phone by today's standards. The phone is a bit over 5" in length plus the rather bulky case and it seems to secure it right in there. There seems to be more room for the spring loaded backing to get something larger in there it may open all the way up to 6" but I don't think much more. As always, use the elastic band. I've hit some bumps and even took a few spills. And my phone still works.

they are not long @ all you have 2 unattached from the top of cell phones 2 use them. That's the reason I said I wanted to be able to extend but they can't too short

I use it to keep plugged in when in gooseneck style cradle with USB power in base in car and usually don't stretch to more than about 18-inches. If I need to take it farther away than that I just unplug the phone so it's not being tugged on constantly while I'm using it. I use a bluetooth earpiece so I don't have to bring the phone all the way up to my ear. That all being said; after several months of constant use, it still is coiled as tight as when I received it.

My lanyard is approximately 34 inches long without stretching it. The attachment adds another inch. When I hang my iphone on it using the additional 3 inch cord, the phone itself hangs below my waist. I am 5'5" tall.

I installed this for an elderly woman quite a long time and have no access at the moment to give you a measurement as I note another responder provided. Please note that the distance between the arms is VERY adjustable, determined by which holes in the mounting bracket you use when you attach it under the toilet seat using the seat's two mounting screws. Using the outermost holes of the two brackets will give a very WIDE arm position.

Yes, the mount will grip the phone and you can adjust the arm. It may not work if you have a cover on you're phone. Depends on the thickness of the cover.

3 feet or so. There's quite a bit that hangs down when I use it in my car and my phone is in a cradle on the dashboard.
