One of the things that people hate about wireless car charger mounts is the fact that they don’t hold the phone in place. Sure they might work well for the first few days, but after that you notice that your phone keeps falling off the mount.
Part of the fault is in the design of the mount. It may be able to hold the phone when the car is parked, but when the vehicle is in motion, it falls off when you roll over bumps.
That is not the case with this Vikano. It is outfitted with a motorized clamp that holds your phone firmly in place. That is only one of the features that you will appreciate from this quality charger mount.

This in our considered opinion, is one of the best wireless car charger mounts in the market today. The outstanding design and protection features of this fast charging car mount are a notch above the rest.
Note that all the top 3 wireless car charger mounts in this review are about within the same price point. So the price of the product is not a huge issue. The charger that comes with this unit is pretty fast.
It can charge a phone up to 100% in 10 minutes or less. The clamping mechanism on this charger mount is also pretty sturdy. The mount also has a pair of release buttons on the charging plate, which makes releasing the phone quite easily.
If there is one downside to this thing is that some people make it a habit to touch those two release buttons when handling this charging mount. Thus they end up accidentally releasing their phones. It’s not the mount’s fault though.

Aesthetics
This shouldn't be the first one that you should consider, but we will start with that so we can get it out of the way. Everyone wants their car interiors to look great.
That is why the aesthetics of a charger mount is essential. Some designs are too bulky while others are just plain ugly. That means they don't match the design of your dash or they look like some alien piece of equipment.
The best practice is that you should get one that matches your dash.
Installation
Installation should be easy. You don't want to drill holes for any screws or what not. That will be a considerable inconvenience. All of the top 3 best wireless car charger mounts on our list above are easily mountable on both a car’s air vent, dash, and on the window.
Type and Accessibility
The type and accessibility of the mount should match your driving habits. A lot of them will have a cradle to hold your phone. What you’re looking for is a mount that makes driving and using your phone’s drive features very easy. You don’t want one that will make you look too far down, to the side, or way up from the windshield. The viewer angle should also be adjustable to suit your preferred view.
Clamp
You will be driving over bumpy roads from time to time. It would be quite an inconvenience if your phone keeps falling off from the mount.
Charging Speed and Protection Features
The charging speed is also a concern. A fast phone charger will be useful during times when you need to use your phone while it’s charging. Protection features include overcharge and overvoltage protection among other things.
