“Best” car mount depends on where you want it and how bumpy your commute is.
For most, a quality vent mount (MagSafe/magnetic for iPhone, or clamp for everything else) is tidy and legal, while a dash/windscreen suction mount suits tall cabins and 4WDs.
If vents are flimsy, a CD-slot or cup-holder mount keeps things steady; riders of the rough stuff should look at Quad Lock or similarly rugged clamps with wireless charging if needed.
Pick something that keeps the phone below the dash line, doesn’t block airbags, and stays put in summer heat—Belkin, Quad Lock, Spigen and Scosche make reliable options.
In Australia, remember the phone must be secured in a mount and not obstruct your view; set-and-forget, then use voice or steering-wheel controls like a responsible rebel.
