LOXP Car Cup Holder Phone Mount for 4.0–7.2-Inch Phones

A phone mount that shakes or slips can make navigation harder to glance at while driving. The LOXP cup holder mount moves the phone off the air vent and dashboard, using an expandable base and two locking knobs to help hold its position. Its arm adjusts for height, and the phone clamp rotates for a different viewing angle. The tradeoff is straightforward: it needs a compatible cup holder, so it takes up a spot that might otherwise hold a drink.

Technical details

The expandable base adjusts from 2.56 to 4.06 inches, with silicone grip pads intended to help it stay snug inside a vehicle cup holder. The adjustable arm extends from 8.8 to 11 inches. A ball joint provides 360° rotation, while the upper and lower knobs allow up to 270° and 180° of adjustment, respectively. The phone clamp fits devices from 4.0 to 7.2 inches and has a one-touch release button for removing a phone. The listing says the clamp accommodates many thicker cases, including wallet cases and cases with ring holders, but does not specify a maximum case thickness. It also reports more than 10,000 durability test cycles, that is a manufacturer-provided claim, not a measure of how it will perform in every vehicle.

Requirements

You’ll need a car cup holder with an opening within the mount’s 2.56–4.06-inch adjustment range, plus a phone between 4.0 and 7.2 inches. Since the mount sits in the cup holder, it’s a poor fit if you need that location free for a drink or another item. This placement may appeal if you’d rather avoid a vent clip or adhesive on the dashboard, those styles don’t occupy a cup holder, but they use a different mounting location. It makes sense if your car has an available, compatible cup holder and you want to adjust the phone’s height and angle. You may want to skip it if your cup holder is outside the stated range or already has another essential use.

Usage tips

Place the base in the cup holder and turn the adjustment until it feels snug, rather than assuming every holder will fit just because it looks close. Then set the arm height and viewing angle before tightening the knobs. For example, when setting up navigation before a drive, you can position the screen toward your seat, check that the mount is secure, and use the release button when it’s time to remove the phone. From the way it is set up, the two knobs offer several adjustments, but changing the angle may take more steps than using a simpler fixed-position mount. Keep the screen positioned for easy glances without letting it distract from the road.

Before you decide

Will it fit my car’s cup holder? The base adjusts from 2.56 to 4.06 inches. The product details don’t provide a vehicle-specific fit list.

What phone sizes does it support? The clamp is listed for phones from 4.0 to 7.2 inches. Many thicker cases are said to fit, but no maximum case thickness is given.

Can I change the phone’s viewing angle? Yes. The mount has a 360° ball joint, plus two knobs for additional adjustment of the upper and lower sections.

Final verdict

This mount is worth considering when you have a spare cup holder and want a phone position that can be adjusted in both height and angle without clipping onto an air vent or sticking anything to the dashboard. Its broad stated phone range and expandable base make the fit details useful starting points, not a guarantee for every case or vehicle. Choose it for the extra positioning flexibility, choose a vent- or dashboard-mounted design instead if keeping your cup holder available matters more.
