The processing of the bracket is top! Everything makes a robust impression, nothing wobbles. The suction cup is very strong. A long lever travel "strong" vacuum is created. It is therefore not comparable to the cost mounts that already fall off by itself. Also, the rubber on the "suction" is very well made, so that the area is properly. This is also very important if the suction cup to keep.
With 2 screws, the position of the bracket is fixed. Everything is quick and easy. The screws (or the plastic that is screwed) also makes a very robust impression. The adhesive surface I have not tried (I use the bracket to the windshield), but for the suction cup fits perfectly.
In order to use the HTC One, the upper bracket is folded up (there's no spring, as we know it from the other mounts, but this bracket you can fold in two fixed positions - on and on). HTC One fits properly and is then fixed by the bracket. On bracket soft material is installed so that the HTC One can be anywhere scratched.
Once you connect the cable from the bracket on the device that HTC One automatically in "Car" mode ("Car" application is launched). If the charger cable is connected to the holder, then of course also loaded. In "car" mode, the unit also switches without that the charging cable is connected.
The removal of the device from the holder proves to be very comfortable. After the bracket has been opened, you can grab the bottom with your thumb in the opening and so the HTC One exit very easy and safe.
In comparison to other currently available holders for the HTC One such holder is clearly the best in my eyes. The airline brackets set already when suction cup on a system that I have not personally had good experiences so. Also, the device must be as insert partially, whereas it is it inserts at DONZO more. Thus, the risk of scratches is reduced to a minimum.
The original HTC holder will keep the unit well by using the micro-USB connector. This is not optimal in my eyes. Although I have not used the bracket, but only seen. And have just decided against it. And "Car" mode is started so well with DONZO, therefore I see no difference.
But now I come to the few, but existing disadvantages of the holder:
- The manual deserves not actually to be designated as such. Of course, this does not need to work with the mount, but I want to have mentioned it. Without which is understood rather as the holder works.
- The cable that comes out of the holder and is connected to the HTC One depends more or less unmotivated in the area. The "support rails" on the back are in place, but not to be used specifically for the HTC One. And the claim is "Immediate charging function by inserting your phone in the cradle" in the product description of course nonsense - the mobile phone is charged when the cable to connect manually after inserting the device. But for me it's more of an advantage - not always, when I insert the phone into the cradle, I also want CAR mode is started, or that the phone is being charged.
The disadvantages of this bracket are meaningless to me and because I find that the bracket is very well thought out and handled properly, get the support of my 5 stars.
The review has become a little longer than planned, but hopefully it will help someone further.
