Any recommendations? The whole topic kinda worries me, either having a suction cup for the windscreen or a velcro surface for the dash. One product I encountered was sold as specifically for the N5 but a review said that it was a generic holder and had a very wobbly hold on the phone.

I use a Satechi one that slips into my CD player. But it's not designed for any specific phone.

We use iOttie. Garbage name, great phone holders.

Ours is the Easy One Touch 2, looks like there's a 3 out now. We have ours attached to the dash, but it could just as easily go on the windshield. We chose dash for a position reachable by driver or passenger. It has not fallen off once.

I have a belkin that plugs in the cigarette lighter. It's ok, but my phone is heavy, so I prefer to tie the mount to the dash for extra support.

I used to use a vent clip with a clamp for my phone but now, since I always use a case on my phones, I use a magnetic vent clip and have the metal disc sandwiched between the case and phone.
