The holder is not specific to the Nexus 5 smartphone but a universal mount. The smartphone is held by the 2 clips on the side. Downstairs begfinden 2 webs which can be moved to where the smartphone additionally rests. The Smarthone also holds the LG Google Nexus Cover Cover super in the holder. The suction cup is strong and holds bombproof on the disc. The only thing I lack is a little bit of an additional joint behind the suction cup so you can attach to the windscreen the holder deeper. But that is the only negative thing I can think to the car mount. Otherwise, for the price, top quality.
