[Q] Proclip charger/holder for galaxy S4

[BigE]

I am in desperate need for a Proclip holder for AT&T S4. It looks like the one for S3 will fit the S4 but i am not sure..

See here: http://www.proclipusa.com/phone-hol...d-cigarette-lighter-adapter-512398-18987.cmsv

Does anyone with a S3 pro-clip holder has any experience placing the S4 in it ? I have the S2 Pro-clip and an iPhone pro-clip on the other car and they are super quality devices.. Note I am looking after the one with the charger option.

Thanks.

+1 I, too, am a fan of the proclips. Has anyone got an answer to this? I don't think there's an S4 proclip available yet.

We have just launched two active holders for the Galaxy S4, the item numbers are 512526 and 513526. We will also launch a holder that fits devices with skins but it is not yet ready.

Answering my own question...

I have never had any car holder with charger , better than proclip..

Recommending (and no, I do not get commission for this .. )

It will be my 5th holder with them, for different phones.

I guess this will not work in combination with the samsung flip-cover?

They informed me that they are developing a holder that will suit the s4 with skins/cases . They didn't have a date as of yet

Im waiting fot that too

Absolutely agree about the brodit proclips system, absolutely perfect. My iphone one worked like a dream and really want to get one for my S4 buuuutttt, Im using arliberator and dont know if I can use any of the docks in conjunction with the mhl connector

It will work with the flip cover as long as you get the adjustable one, I was using with the cover closed, just don't put the right side in and you can still flip open but tight. And I also used it with the cover flipped behind, just had to adjust the holder to fit the leather flip on the left side and the phone on the right. I will post pictures after I go back to the case, using a slim armor for the time being, it fits good too.

I assume you meant the dock and not the dock holder?
Why do you keep buying all these docks?
I would recommend the Craigsdock dock. The one single dock will work with all Galaxy series phones, including Note II. So you just buy one dock and it fits them all. And you don't have to worry about whether you have an extended battery or cover. It still fits. And all in a slimmer/smaller package than the ProClip and with a better (IMO) charging solution.

I've had the ProClip dock. I like the Craigsdock dock better. And with the Craigsdock, you can change the type of USB connector easily. For non-carhome mode, for USB-OTG or for any other type of MicroUSB connector you may need. And it's an easy swapout.
Just a heads up.

Though the ProClip dock "holder/mounting base" is pretty nice.

I have the brodit active dock with usb connection. This model suits the phone with case .
Photo shows the s3 but works on s4 too.


Maybe you can use mhl via the usb I dont have mhl so I cant test.

Is the wire fixed in to the dock. My old iPhone one had a fixed jack in the dock and you plugged the iPhone into the cable into the fixed jack. I emailed Brodit about their g4 active dock because it comes with a molex connector block. I wanted to know what connections the block took but I don't think they understood me

I dont have the active holder with the molex connector. Mine has a male usb . The wire is fixed to the dock . See pic.

OK thanks so I wouldn't be able to use an mhl adapter with it like I need to on that model.

Unless you can plug in the mhl adapter to the male end of the usb lead and from there into the charger via some sort of adapter.

That's why I'm looking at the one with the molex connector. It was so easy with the iPhone. You just plugged the iPhone cable into the bottom of the holder. I was kinda hoping it would be the same with the s4 one.

I think the difference is that there is somewhat of a standard with Apple dock/lightning cables, but it's a zoo with micro-USB male adapters. There's no standard shape for them to machine to. I suppose they could match the OEM cable, but most people only have one of those.
