For those that dont know where to put your iPhone 6 in your car.

dvboy · Sep 27, 2014

My old iPhone 5 fit nicely in my arm rest in my car,but the new iPhone 6 is too big to fit in there,so I found a solution for myself that might work for others.I purchased this genuine leather pouch off Ebay....
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/161383182499...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Mounted it on the center hump of my car with double sided foam tape and it worked out perfectly.I posted a video of it up on YouTube...

Here is a pic of it on my car....

Thanks for sharing. Probably if you want to charge your phone at the same time, put it up side down to do so

Thanks,the phone option I used was the Samsung Galaxy S5,my iPhone 6 has the apple leather case on it during the video.I am sure it would work well naked,or with a little bulkier case.

Do you know if this will fit 6+ with a case?

Sounds like it will fit the 6+ with a case. I will be receiving mine tomorrow, so I will check to make sure and post as soon as I receive the Kenu airframe plus.

Just got the Kenu+. Love it.

Fluttershy · Sep 28, 2014

I use Kenu with my Apple Leather case with no problem, I am quite sure it could fit a bigger phone, she can take it

Just received the Kenu+ and tried it with my iPhone 6+ Case (phone arriving tomorrow) and it works great. Here are some photos.

Kenu + just doesn't work for me. I'll sell at a discount if someone wants it

Very nice, thanks! It looks huge on the vent, I'm excited for the maps to be bigger.

Do you think there's a little extra room for a bigger case than what you have?

I'm very interested in it! I can't send a private message yet though

Yes, it has an additional 1/4" of spread beyond the Seidio Surface (Platinum) case I used in the photo and about 1/4" additional thickness available.

So not otterbox room, but most others?

Also, does this mount angle? Sometimes I want to move the one I have to the passenger side center vent so I can feel the AC better but then I wouldn't be able to see it directly. Thanks!

Why didn't you like it?

I'm kinda on the fence about getting one. Just concerned about it blocking the vent and potentially falling out.

Except in the winter when the heater is blowing hot air on the phone.

It pivots around (turns) but doesn't angle. You may be able to angle it slightly by not pushing it all the way in on the vent, but it may not be as stable on the vent.

Yeah I have to find elsewhere to store it - at least in summer it's cool air

mattroman246 · Sep 28, 2014

I heard this can cause condensation in the camera lense? Is that true?
