Smartphone Mount

The other day, I was asked, “What smartphone mount do you use to secure your phone?”

My husband had fixed his smartphone inside the car while driving the 911 Cabriolet (992) at Fuji Speedway, and after seeing the photos, someone asked about it.

When he drives on the circuit, my husband uses the official Porsche app called “Track Precision.” This app is very handy because it records and lets you check various data like speed, RPM, throttle opening, and braking.

When I asked him, “Someone asked what kind of smartphone mount you use,” he said:

I’ve actually bought and tried a ton of mounts and failed a lot. Even when mounted, the vibration would make the phone wobble and the video shaky, plus there’d be rattling noises. They were all pretty cheap and disappointing. But finally, I found one that meets my quality standards. This one doesn’t shake at all—it’s perfect!

He shared the details with me.

Here it is. The mounting part and the suction cup are separate products, and he combines these two to get the perfect setup.

About this smartphone mount, my husband said:

First, the mount itself is made of metal, so it’s very rigid and doesn’t budge even with strong vibrations. The phone is secured not by a spring but by a screw mechanism, so it really locks in tightly.
And about the suction cup: Strong suction cups tend to be large, but if they’re too big, they show up in the video footage. After trying many, this is what I discovered.
It’s compact but sticks very powerfully. Also, the connector part between the mount and suction cup is made of very rigid plastic, with no unnecessary moving parts and is short, which adds to its rigidity.
It’s hard to find a product with such a short connector. With this combination, even when pushing a GT3 to the limit on the circuit, there’s absolutely no shaking or weird rattling noises. I think it’s the ultimate setup.

He highly recommends it.
