For those constantly juggling their phones during video calls or selfies, a reliable hands-free mount is a game-changer. I recently tested the Silicone Suction Phone Case (2 Pack), a double-sided suction cup phone holder promising a sticky, adhesive-free solution. This review dives into my experiences using this product over several weeks, assessing its practicality, durability, and overall value.

The Silicone Suction Phone Case boasts a simple yet effective design. Each of the two included cases features double-sided suction cups, eliminating the need for any adhesive. The silicone material feels soft and pleasant to the touch. The suction cups themselves are numerous and tiny, providing a large surface area for grip. The manufacturer claims the size is 73x43mm/2.9×1.7in. In my testing, this proved just large enough for my iPhone 13 Pro Max but might be a tight fit for larger phones with added cases. This aspect of the design does cause some concern about its lifespan and durability. A thorough clean of the surfaces is critical before initial application.

Initially, the suction was surprisingly strong. I tested it on various surfaces – a glass desk, a car dashboard, and even a slightly textured wall. The phone stayed firmly in place throughout video calls, movie watching, and even some accidental bumps. However, after a week of consistent use, I did notice a slight decrease in suction strength, especially on non-smooth surfaces. I found it necessary to clean and reactivate the suction cups frequently to maintain optimal adhesion. This ongoing maintenance is the biggest drawback of this product. However, this being said, when cleaned they readily reattach and hold the phone securely and well. I suspect this is a feature of silicone, that after consistent use the grip reduces unless this simple cleaning is performed. Regular cleaning kept the product’s grip fairly consistent and thus the product remained very effective throughout my testing phase.

The pink and white color options are vibrant and stylish, adding a touch of personalization to my phone setup. The flexible silicone provides a surprising amount of shock absorption, giving me a slight amount of confidence that the phone is protected against drops.

Pros:

• Double-sided suction for versatile placement.
• No adhesive required.
• Soft, pleasant silicone material.
• Relatively strong initial suction.
• Stylish color options.

Cons:

• Suction strength diminishes over time, requiring regular cleaning.
• May not be suitable for all phone sizes or cases.
• Requires meticulous cleaning for best adherence.

The Silicone Suction Phone Case (2 Pack) offers a convenient and largely effective hands-free solution. While the need for regular cleaning to maintain suction is a minor inconvenience, the overall performance and versatility make it a worthwhile purchase for anyone looking for a simple and portable phone mount. The product is reliable and is not as difficult to use as might be anticipated, the small inconvenience of cleaning the suction cups from time to time is acceptable for the utility it provides.

I would recommend this product, especially for users who frequently need a quick and easy way to prop up their phones. Just remember to clean those suction cups!
