Loncaster Car Phone Holder Silicone Dashboard Pad - Slip Free Mount

In this review the Loncaster Car Phone Holder is judged as a simple, no-fuss dashboard solution for drivers who want a stable horizontal mount without tools. The biggest reason to buy is its sticky, washable silicone base that grips a wide range of phones and GPS devices and stays put during sudden stops, making it a practical choice for everyday commuting, delivery drivers, school bus operators, or anyone who needs a quick and removable phone mount.

Key Features

• Wide compatibility: Holds most phones and GPS devices between 6-12mm thick, including recent iPhone and many Samsung models, so users do not need model-specific mounts.
• Slip free grip: A soft silicone-textured bottom with sticky pads keeps devices secure during sudden braking and sharp turns to reduce bouncing or flying out.
• Tool-free installation: Adheres directly to a smooth, flat dashboard area without mechanical installation, so setup is fast and reversible.
• Horizontal viewing only: Keeps the phone in a 100 degree angle on the dash to avoid obstructing forward vision while providing a stable horizontal display for maps or media.
• Washable and reusable: High-tech adhesives rinse clean with water and dry back to near-new tack, extending the pad's usable life and value.

Who It's For

The Loncaster pad is best for drivers who want a compact, unobtrusive solution for holding phones or small tablets horizontally on a smooth section of dashboard. It works well for delivery drivers, carpool drivers, and riders of vans or school buses who need a reliable mount that can be moved between vehicles.

Drivers with highly textured or curved dashboards, or users who require portrait orientation, should look elsewhere; also devices in very thick protective cases like heavy-duty otter-style cases may not adhere or fit within the 6-12mm effective thickness range.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Sticks firmly to smooth dashboards and holds phones steady even under sudden braking.
• Compatible with a broad range of phone brands and sizes when within the 6-12mm thickness range.
• No installation hardware required and leaves no trace when removed.
• Washable adhesive restores tackiness for repeated use, extending product life.

Cons

• Only supports horizontal mounting, so it is not suitable for users who need portrait orientation.
• Requires a smooth flat area about 5 x 5.1 in on the dashboard and may not work well on textured or curved surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this hold my phone in a portrait position?
No. This holder is designed to support phones only in the horizontal position.

Can I use it with a thick protective case?
It may not work well with very thick cases such as heavy-duty otter-style or life-proof cases because the effective thickness limit is 6-12mm.

How do I restore the adhesive if it gets dirty?
Rinse the silicone pad under water, let it air dry, and the adhesive properties should return close to new.
