Android – Iphone – Applications

So as it turns out, I had just one more Arkon mount to talk about, which the folks out at Arkon sent for review–specifically, we’ve got a look at the Arkon Slim Grip Mount.

The Arkon Slim Grip Mount is actually pretty similar to earlier Arkon models, except it’s more specifically a slim model.  Where earlier Arkon models used side-mounted clamps, the Slim Grip uses top and bottom mounted clamps to hold your phone of choice in place.

Now, the good part about this is that it offers everything earlier Arkons did, and it does it in a package that’s a lot slimmer and fits in more spaces.  It’s more versatile, and versatility is never a bad thing.

The bad part about this is that it’s actually quite a bit more difficult to work with than other Arkons.  First, it requires assembly–you have to snap in those little grip feet yourself, which is something the earlier Arkons didn’t have. But second, there’s no release lever here like other Arkons had–this one requires you to pull a spring-loaded slot open in order to slip your phone in and snap it closed.

Still though, if you’re willing to put up with a bit of a hassle to get a device that gets the job done in a lot more places than the others in the Arkon line, then the Slim Grip Mount is going to be just the tool for you.
