    Not what you want to hear, but my favorite location for my phone while driving is in my pants/shorts pocket.

    I am interested as well in an actual response. I have CarPlay and while it works most of the time, at least once every drive I have to use my phone because something goes wrong or can't be done from the CarPlay screen or it takes 14 clicks to get back to now playing in Spotify. I miss having my phone mounted in a visible, accessible location.

    If I had an iPhone 12 I'd definitely get one of these MagSafe mounts. The Spiegels look amazing.

    Koomus cd slot mag Mount works great. Use in s7 (even with CarPlay), q5 and have a spare for rental cars too.

    I like this one...

    VICSEED Car Phone Mount Magnetic

    Although if you have the phone in a vertical position and turn the car off, the screen hits it when it closes.

    I used this type of solution for about a month. Works well as long as you position out of the screen's travel path, to far-right or far-left, so it won't be knocked off the magnetic holder as the screen closes. I stopped using it in warmer months because it blocked a significant amount of a/c cooling from the vent---the phone turned ice-cold but I couldn't feel much cooling. Then, I found that I really don't have that much use for mounting my phone in the car while driving, so I just leave it in my pocket and life's fine. Call me old school.

    Nothing's perfect when it comes to phone mounts, but this type of solution is low-cost, easy to install and uninstall (in seconds) and reasonably effective.

    I use this one on my S6, but should be the same dash. It clicks into place and has a decently strong magnet.
