FWD the price is certainly right but would it fit a Samsung Galaxy S4 in an otterbox defender case?".
edit: seems perhaps not. Teh ad says
"Suitable for 3.3-4.3" mobile pone" (sic)
I wonder how they measure that.
In the case mine is 3" x 3 3/4
Maybe they measure it like a TV....
On the diagonal its 6 1/2 "
I use one of these Kenu Airframe - Kenu I swap it between my disco, the wifes bus, the work ute, and whatever else im in,
It opens wide enough for the iphone in a otterbox defender and a bit wider so I reckon the s4 should fit.
also if you decide to order one I think there cheaper from the apple online shop than from kenu direct
in the discovery 2 it pushes onto the plastic between the radio and the air vents, just above the air con stuff
I'm thinking the RAM mount but torn between dash mount (self adhesive) and windscreen sucker !
I have a dash mount on both of my defendersQuote:

Mine has stuck well , secret is to wash the area where you want to stick the mount , with metho or a bit of petrol and dry it then stick the self adhesive dash mount.
That holder just fits in my s4 with a dodgy unbranded case, total sizing at 83mm wide x 150mm high.Quote:

Unfortunately I could not find a similar mount in a larger size.
Another tip re where to mount, especially if self adhesive, so less able to relocate than suction type . . . if you're using GPS you'll need to have it on charge, as battery drains quicker, so wherever you mount it, needs to be in easy reach of your in-vehicle charger to 12 volt plug/cig lighter plug.Quote:
