Car Dock options

Trooper Thorn · Dec 11, 2013

Has anybody found a good car dock for this? I've been using this one http://amzn.com/B0089VO7HE which I like quite a lot, but the charge port is obscured by those rests at the bottom. Also I think the One max is a bit too heavy for it, as it slowly angles down with time.

Anybody find a good car dock that works well with the One max? Most I find are either really bulky, with a bunch of adjustable joints, or would cover up the charge port or buttons on the side. Verizon's website says this http://www.verizonwireless.com/accessories/windshield-mount fits it, but I was curious if anybody had found any others before I went ahead and bought this. All the reviews say this one seems to bounce around quite a lot as you drive.

I had a Ibolt with my note 2 and it worked great; no bouncing or shifting.
Dont know if they have one for the max yet, but here is what it looks like. You can email or call them and see though..

That looks pretty sweet. Looking at the one for the Galaxy S3/S4/Note 2/Note3 (http://amzn.com/B00AOCSFYC) it looks like it might work fine for the One max. You'd have to face the phone the other way so the top mount wasn't touching the power/volume buttons, but that shouldn't be a big deal.

they have a website and an 800 number you can call and ask about it

might want to be careful with getting one designed for samsung devices since they have a tendency to flip the usb port

i use the same one i used with my dna, which looks to be the same general design. and all i do is slide the phone over a little so the top brace doesnt sit on the power button

FWIW I just kept my Samsung dock (http://amzn.com/B0089VO7HE) and broke off the bottom right support, which was blocking the USB charge port on the One max. It doesn't look as good, but I melted the plastic with a lighter to remove most of the rough edges, so at least it's now functional, and can handle my DNA or my One max.

I sold my dock for my note 2 on Ebay when I got this phone..
wondering if there are any other car dock options out there, reasonably priced..

thanks!

But can you put the phone in the HTC dock while the case is on it? I have this case http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G1PI73K/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I ordered this dock a few days ago; less than 1/2 the price, and it looks like it will fit with a case on the phone, as long as its 3.4 inches or less in total width..

Do people not have many tried and trusted docks they use? I'm using a universal tablet phablet car holder which is rubbish. It was fine back when I had a iPad mini. And my Xperia ZU because they had bigger bezels around screen but with this the 3 hooks take up a cm on phone plus its off centre as hooks would touch power button and vol. Do people have solutions. I have a HTC flip case at present and will most likely get a power flip case. But want a holder to allow for that.

I got this Proclip Extra Large Adjustable and hopefully won't have to get another even if my next phone is slightly bigger. It fits my One Max nicely with a TPU case and some room for growth. It says Note 2 and 3 which just means it's big. The phone slides in/out easily and has a little room in the back for air flow. No problem plugging/unplugging the charger.

The seller Crogs571 has been around these forums for a while and I've bought a couple other things from him.

I've got the HTC dock, it's nice but does not support any case on your phone so that kills it for many people

I made my own dock with an old gps support and the belt otterbox defender support ...
