Is the Gooseneck Windscreen Brodit an Alternative to the Brodit Proclip?

The Gooseneck Windscreen Brodit works better for some cars. While the Brodit Proclip is designed for almost any dashboard, some people still prefer to attach their Brodit car holder to their windscreen. This may be because of the make of the car, or because of something like their height. For some people, it is easier to see their mobile device when it is attached to the windscreen rather than the dashboard. It still makes the mobile device and the car holder portable, it is just attached to a place other than the dashboard.

While the Gooseneck Windscreen Brodit is an alternative to the Brodit Proclip, most retailers will still recommend using the Brodit clip over the gooseneck. This is because The Brodit Proclip has a unique type of grip that holds onto the dashboard with a permanently strong grip. It won't slip or fall off while you are driving, and yet is is still portable. This way, you can take it with you when you when you want to use it in another car of the smae make and model. It fits on most dashboards and doesn't obstruct the view of the driver like a windscreen mount can.

Of course, the Gooseneck Windscreen Brodit works well with all of the Brodit car holders. This includes car holders for mobile devices from Nokia, Garmin, Blackberry, iPod, TomTom, HTC, iPhone and all of the other car holders that Brodit makes. The gooseneck is a more universal solution for mounting a car holder, because it really does go in any kind of car. It uses a high adhesion sucker cup, which works similarly to the Brodit Proclip; it just attaches to the windscreen instead of the dashboard. Depending on the kind of car you have, this may be the solution for you. This is especially true if you change cars often.

The Gooseneck Windscreen Brodit is better than other suction mounts. You may read reviews about windscreen mounts that come off while driving, or never stick in the first place. The cheap windscreen mounts are probably the worst. If they do stick, they usually come off at some point while you are driving. There is nothing more frustrating than a windscreen suction cup that falls off in the middle of traffic. It can be frustrating and even dangerous while you are driving. The anxiety of wondering whether or not the suction cup will come loose is frustrating and the source of a lot of anxiety.

The Gooseneck Windscreen Brodit, however, is superior in quality. While it is not the first choice for Brodit car holders, it certainly is a better choice than most windscreen mounts out there on the market. It is functional, long lasting, and as long as you take care to stick it up properly - it will keep you car holder and your mobile device in place. There are many reasons to try an alternative like a windscreen mount, and if you need one, the Gooseneck Windscreen Brodit is probably the best choice when it comes to windscreen mounts.

The Gooseneck Windscreen Brodit is one of the better suction cup windscreen holders on the market. If you have special needs for your car mount, this is a quality product to purchase.
