Lamicall car headrest tablet holder

The biaxial extension arm is the standout feature: it lets you adjust the viewing distance and swing a tablet towards the space between two back-seat passengers. That shared position can be handy on a road trip when a screen mounted directly behind one seat would be awkward for the other passenger to see. The arm can also be pulled out or retracted as needed, while a ball joint provides 360-degree rotation. Fit is the key check before buying, since this mount attaches to headrest rods and won’t work on a seat without them.

Key specifications

The holder is designed for devices with screens measuring 4.7–11 inches diagonally, a screen width of 5.5–8.6 inches and a maximum thickness of 0.67 inches. The compatible headrest rod spacing is 2.8–5.9 inches. These measurements matter more than a device’s product name: check the tablet’s dimensions and the distance between the rods on the seat where you plan to use it.

The headrest crossbar is metal, and the device clips have anti-slip rubber pads intended to help keep a device in place and protect it from scratches. Installation requires no tools, the product description says it normally takes about 5 seconds. That’s a simple setup, but the mount’s usefulness still depends on having suitable headrest rods and a device within the stated size limits.

Who it’s for

This is aimed at families or passengers who want to watch on a tablet from the back seat, especially when two people may want to share the screen. For example, on a longer drive, the arm can be angled towards the middle so both passengers have a view, then pushed back when it’s not needed. A fixed holder positioned behind one seat is a simpler approach, but the extending arm offers more flexibility in where the screen sits.

No te encajará si the rear seat has no headrest rods, the rod spacing falls outside the stated range, or your device exceeds the clip’s size limits. The adjustable angle offers positioning options, but it doesn’t remove the need to check fit in your particular vehicle.

Everyday use

The arm’s two-axis movement and rotating ball give you a choice between keeping the screen behind one seat and swinging it towards the centre. That makes the design more adaptable than a mount with a fixed viewing position. The trade-off is that there are several measurements to match: screen diagonal alone isn’t enough, because screen width, device thickness and headrest rod spacing also count. If the device is close to the thickness limit, include any case when checking whether it can fit in the clip.

Buying questions

Will it fit a seat without headrest rods? No. The product description explicitly says it cannot fit a back seat without headrest rods.

What device sizes does it support? The stated screen diagonal is 4.7–11 inches, the suitable screen width is 5.5–8.6 inches, and the maximum clip thickness is 0.67 inches.

Can the screen be turned towards the middle? Yes. The biaxial extension arm can swing the tablet between two seats, and the ball joint rotates 360 degrees.

Final verdict

Choose this Lamicall holder if your vehicle has headrest rods within the stated spacing and you want the option to move a compatible screen between a one-seat and shared viewing position. Its practical advantage over a basic fixed mount is that adjustable reach and rotation, its firm limitation is the need for the right rods and device dimensions. If either fit check fails, this design isn’t the right match, even if the tablet’s diagonal measurement appears compatible.
