    Im looking for a phone mount for a galaxy s3 on my motorcycle. just something for a GPS and yada yada was just wondering if anyone has a phone mount they recommend that's kinda cheaper but still gets the job done safely without having to worry about it falling off

    what I did was bought a 2nd case and hot glued a magnet to the back of it. then with elmers glue, glued a piece of paper to the other side of the magnet so not to scratch the tank.

    I got one of these for my old HTC Evo... looks like they sell a kit for the galaxy s3.

    When i got mine they shipped it for free and i had it literally 2 days later!

    Ran it for 2 full seasons on the ebike and only stopped because i deactivate that phone.

    Ram mounts are awesome. A couple guys i ride with love them. They cost a little more but work great

    +1 to Ram Mounts. Seriously high quality stuff -- not sure they'd fit the cheap criteria ;)

    this mantra is often heard among software engineers but definitely applies here too..
