How they stack up

iOttie Velox Pro Wireless Dash & Windshield Mount

The premium charging mount of the group, adding wireless charging and active cooling that the iOttie iTap 3, iOttie iTap 2, Spigen OneTap 3, and RAM X-Grip all lack. Its magnetic hold rivals the iTap 3, but it costs several times more, which is why it sits second to the better-value iTap 3.

Spigen OneTap 3 Dashboard Car Mount (MagFit)

A clean, affordable MagSafe mount that competes with the iOttie iTap 3 and iOttie iTap 2 on hold and ease of use, generally landing just behind the iTap 3 on raw magnet strength. It lacks the wireless charging of the iOttie Velox Pro Wireless and the rugged clamp security of the RAM X-Grip.
