Two iPhone Car Mounts That Will Make You Happier On The Road

iPhone accessories in the car can make your life easier. If you find the best one, that is. And so far, all of them have little annoying details that will bother you. These new ones seem to solve some of those problems. Will you fund them?

 

The first one we take a look at today is "Smario Car Kit", dubbed "The Most Integrated Car Kit Solution". It is an all in one solution for a phone mount, car charger and a bluetooth device. 

 

Smario was designed for any mobile phone so your iPhone will love it. There are four different colors and the device itself will only be 3.1 by 2.9 inches (80mm by 74mm). 

 

The Kickstarter project developer says Smario has Bluetooth 4.0 Quality Audio. You can use that to stream music to the car speakers, control volume, select songs as well as access Siri and use dictation. The device is designed in such a way that it holds your iPhone with or without a case. It has spring loaded clamps to hold it in place. The Smario comes with a lightning connector, a 30-pin and a MicroUSB. They are all inside the device so you can just rotate it and get to the one that works for you. 

 

One of the nifty things about it is that you can actually mount it inside the CD or Cassette Slot in your car. Just insert the back piece and the rotate the knob to secure it in place. Smario will cost $35 if the Kickstarter project will be funded. It only has nine days to go and the $100,000 goal is not that easy to reach. 

 

The second device we're going to present is the iMagBond - an anodized aluminum magnet mounts that looks awesome and can be used both in the car and in your home. You can either use this with your car vent or attach it to a good looking sturdy base. 

 

You can use it to hold your iPhone as you drive so you can talk on the phone, have a dashboard video camera or a GPS. 

 

The basic kit is $19 (€14), but you can only get it if the project will be funded on Kickstarter. There are only nine days to go and the developer needs an extra $6000 to get it off the ground.
