Mobile phone charger recommendation request.

Boy, if you need more secure than that you're rowdy, or something. I used an X-grip with phones and GPS, most of those devices not in cases, on any number of motorcycles for many thousands of miles. Nothing ever budged.

High speed off-road can get dicey. I have the rubber keeper for my X-grip now but I had one of these when I had a smaller phone. It was rock solid!

Here's what I'm looking for.

1) Mounts in a car. It can be can't mount or dash mount. But NOT the ones that squeeze the phone and clip to the vent at the same time. Those last about a few weeks for me. Either the vent clip or the squeeze release breaks.

2) Vertical mount. I need to be able to see the phone vertical (portrait).

3) If it's magnetic, the magnet needs to be strong. The ones I have tried are not strong enough to hold an S6 or S8 with an Otterbox when I hit a bump.

4) I need one lightening plug version and one with the new S8 mini usb.

Yes, my Google machine works. I am just looking for first hand experience if you know of something that is steady and just works.
First #1...what??? Talking about the first paragraph.

2nd you said in the title charger but you are asking about holders. So again....what?
 
This little guy works amazingly in my car. Best car mount I ever used. Works great because of a little metal plate that goes onto the back of your phone or inside the phone case but probably won't work with a real thick case like the otters. No charger. It's held my samsung s7 and iphone se.
I got my mount, and you were right it works great.
