Drive safe with these great car mounts for the Galaxy S20

Distracted driving is completely unacceptable given how flagship phones like the Galaxy S20 are designed with so many hands-free features. All you need is a quality car mount and you can use Google Maps, make calls, or stream music while driving with your hands safely on the wheel and your eyes attentively on the road. These are the best Galaxy S20 car mounts you can buy right now.

Good old reliable

iOttie Easy One Touch 5 Dashboard Mount

Staff Pick

iOttie's Easy One Touch line has been the most popular car mount for almost a decade, and the One Touch 5 is more adaptable and can extend a further distance with its telescoping arm. There are also CD-slot and air vent-mounted models available, too.

Hzrfun Dashboard Clip Car Mount

If your dash traditionally doesn't do well with suction or adhesive mounts, this dashboard clip makes it easy to put your S20 front and center while you drive. This should fit all S20 models, but the flat-screened S20 FE will stay put especially well.

Value pick

Maxboost Car Mount

This one requires you to install a magnetic plate on the back of your phone or case, which might be a dealbreaker. However, the convenience of the magnetic hold means it's easy to place and remove your phone on the mount. Otherwise, it just clips onto your car air vent and doesn't take up much space on your dash.

$9 at Amazon

Bendy and adaptable

Pemsem Gooseneck Cup Holder Phone Mount

If your dashboard is too uneven or too cluttered for a suction mount, consider this flexible phone holder that fits into your cup holder. Don't worry about it wobbling around, either; you twist the base to lock three supports into place.

$12 at Amazon

Low-profile mount

Aukey Magnetic Cell Phone Holder

If your car vents aren't the right shape for magnetic mounts, you can still get in on the low-profile look thanks to this dashboard mount that dips down over the edge of your dash. You can also use it as a windshield mount depending on your state.

From $15 at Amazon

Charge as you drive

iOttie Easy One Touch Wireless

This iOttie car mount includes a USB car charger that delivers power to the QI charging coils so you can wirelessly charge your phone while you drive. It's also available as an air vent clip or CD slot mount.

$30 at Amazon

Minimalist phone holder

Kenu Airframe Pro

This compact clamp mount is specifically designed to accommodate larger phones like the S20 Ultra and S20 FE, but it's also not so imposing when mounted on a car air vent. It's easy to install and remove, and it can easily fit in a carry-on bag or glovebox.

$20 at Amazon

Magnetic color pop

MEIDI Air Vent Phone Holder

I love the Meidi magnetic mount because it's got just enough range to tilt while still being compact, and the color options here include a lovely blue and bright red that will match the S20 FE colors. Just remember to attach the magnetic plates to a case, not the phone itself if you want to still use wireless charging.

$10 at Amazon

Futureproof power

Zeehoo 15W Qi Fast Charging Auto-Clamping Car Mount

While this car mount's 15W wireless charging isn't the profile Samsung uses, it will still charge your S20 or S20 FE at 10W, and unlike most wireless car chargers, this wireless mount can be powered by Power Delivery car chargers!

$37 at Amazon

Keep your hands on the wheel and off your phone with these S20 car mounts

Of all the different car mounts available, we think that the iOttie Easy One Touch 5 is probably the best option for most people. We've linked to the style that can be mounted to your dash or your windshield (be sure to check that windshield mounts are legal in your state), but there are also options for air vent mounts or CD slot mounts as well, which can help keep the larger S20 FE or S20 Ultra out of the way while driving.

I'm also a fan of the Meidi Magnetic Air Vent Mount because even though magnetic mounts interfere with wireless charging, they're just so seamlessly easy to use. Not to mention you can have the best of both worlds if you simply slip the magnetic plate into the case for your Galaxy S20, S20+, S20 Ultra, or Galaxy S20 FE, then slip the case off while wireless charging at home!

For a more premium option that will keep your phone charged, consider the iOttie Easy One Touch Wireless. Yes, I'm recommending two iOttie car mounts — the company simply makes some of the best car mounts you can buy. The wireless charging tech adds to the cost here, but considering you also get a car charging adapter too, it's a great bundle to retrofit your car for your new phone.

The hidden cost of food delivery

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
