I have seen complains with some products having flexible arm like this - Does the phone shake when the car is moving?

Don't waste your money on this product, does not work. I bought one from Verizon for $20.00

The arm is reasonably sturdy, I've never had to re-adjust the arm during a trip if that's your concern. It hold well enough to hold a phone to be used as a gps, or a music player. You might find fine text hard to read, but you shouldn't be reading text messages while you're driving anyway.

yes it bounces a little bit but I'm used to it I have a four wheel drive vehicle with stiff suspension I love my Bracketron I have an auxiliary wire that runs from my stereo to my phone and I can hear my caller through the speakers

Yes it does, but even worse then that, the suction cup willnot stick well at all. In cold weather its absolutely useless. the only reason I bought this was to replace my other one that had a smaller suction cup. I can't even use this one anymore.

It will vibrate slightly but no it will not bend. Depending on how you have it installed, will also depend on how much movement you get on a bumpy road.

I would not use this in a vehicle on bumpy roads. The grip is strong but the arm will bounce & move around.

Maybe bending twisting or pulling on it too much. I ruined my last one that way. I keep this one in my car and it works fine so far.

Mine doesn't move unless I'm driving on a dirt road that has eroded and has a "washboard" surface. Then everything vibrates - even my coffee sloshes out of the travel cup! Tighten the mechanism that fits into the CD player. I have the new version of the product and chose to use the adhesive metal insert for the back of the iPhone 4s inside the slim Caselogic case (also from Amazon). It's great!

It does not wabble or move around while the car is moving. It is very stable. I'm not sure how much smaller the iPad mini is compared to the regular iPad, but it fits the normal iPad to the tee

If you are in a moving vehicle your video may be shaky from the movement of the car but otherwise I think your phone would stay stable - I love this product - bought one for myself and my boyfriend who drives a jeep and they stick really good to the dash - neither of our phones have ever fallen out- the grip is amazing.

No I have had it one and off many surfaces of the car without any problems.

it shakes a little on the rougher roads, but my car (a 2007 Mustang) rides a bit rough. I did modify the cord but I had to take it apart and I don't know the original length. Don't know what the current model will do or if you can get it with a mini usb

Yes it works very well for me. I have had it in the trunk bouncing around and everything is still in place.

The base itself does not swivel. I mounted my grip on the dashboard (glove box) which is at an angle. The neck swivels to allow upright positioning of the phone.

There is a similar thin plastic cover that snaps into place, and while I haven't tested it with anything heavy like a phone, it does stay in place when shook around/held upside-down.

I agree completely with simbp215. I have not had my iPhone 5C slip from the gripper during normal road vibration. I have had it tilt at the ball joint over very bumpy roads. Of course this is on a bicycle, not a Harley.

I have this mount in my truck. As I recall, only one of the arms rotates and is spring loaded. It presses against the tablet and provides enough force to hold it securely in place.

No. I have not heard it rattle at all. The way it fits onto my car's (Honda Fit) headrest is pretty tight so there is no room for it to move and rattle.

I've had no issues with mine, the armband does what it advertises. I'd recommend it if you want it for working out or running. The side buttons all work when depressed too.

You are right, the pictures show mutliple different arms. The one that I received was an 8-10 inch flexible arm. The device worked really well until I broke it by setting some heavy luggage on it. Sometimes it would jiggle around when driving, but I solved that by just adjusting the arm so the phone/device rested on the dash.
