Rank #9 in Best Car Phone Holder 2026: 10 Ranked by What You Can Actually Check
Blukar Dashboard Car Mount, 15.7cm Arm
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Blukar Car Phone Holder is the budget end of this guide: £8.47, 4.3 stars from 25,403 ratings, and Amazon's number two seller in its Mobile Phone Automobile Cradles category. It is a suction-cup mount with a 360° rotatable ball joint and a cradle that locks and releases with a single button, and its arm is listed at 6.18 inches.
Its Maximum Weight Capacity field reads 65 pounds — about 29.5 kilograms. That sits near the top of a range this guide found running from 130 grams to 55 kilograms, and it describes nothing a phone holder actually does: the same listing says the cradle takes phones from 4.0 to 7 inches. It is a pull-off figure for the suction base, not a load anyone would hang on it. The rest of the table has the same feel, with 'Connector Gender: Unisex' and 'Water Resistance Level: Waterproof' sitting next to 'Mounting Type: Dashboard'. So the numbers worth checking are the ones a buyer can see: the 6.18-inch arm, the 25,403 ratings behind the 4.3 stars, the histogram where 67% of ratings are five-star and 6% are one-star, and the £8.47 price. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing rather than from testing by us.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“I LOVE this phone holder. My older one didn't hold my phone snug enough and when I hit a bump it flew out. But this holder is amazing. Amounts easily on my dashboard and has so many adjustments, and softly and securely holds my phone high enough to see it when I drive but not in my vision to bother me when I drive. I am buying 2 more, 1 for my other vehicle and 1 as a gift for my friend! If you are looking for something is well made and looks good and works exactly how you want it, and highly recommend this. Happy safe driving”
Verified purchase“Used it on a trip to Manchester airport and back.A bumpy road at times but it was incredibly stable and held the phone in place at all times.No complaints, very happy with it.”

Questions people ask
What does the 65-pound maximum weight capacity actually mean?
The listing gives no explanation. A 65-pound (roughly 29.5 kg) load makes no sense for a phone holder, because the same listing says it fits phones from 4.0 to 7 inches, so the figure most likely describes how hard the suction base is to pull off a flat surface rather than anything you would ever mount in it.
How long is the arm and how far does it adjust?
The Arm Length field reads 6.18 inches. The Blukar mount also has a 360° rotatable ball joint, which the listing says lets you rotate it horizontally and vertically and adjust it with one hand.
Will it fit my phone with a case left on?
The listing says the holder takes phones from 4.0 to 7 inches without removing the case, including thick cases, and it names iPhone 17 Pro Max through to iPhone 12, plus Galaxy, Google Pixel and Motorola models.
Where can I mount it?
The Mounting Type field says Dashboard, while the first bullet also mentions the windshield and 'other flat surfaces'. It is a suction-cup base, so it needs a flat, smooth surface to stick to.
Is it waterproof?
The listing's Water Resistance Level field says Waterproof, with no further detail, on a product whose Mounting Type is given as Dashboard. We have not tested it and cannot say what that covers in practice.
Is there a warranty?
No warranty length appears in the specifications supplied for this listing, so there is nothing here to compare against the other mounts in this guide.
