What are the best xbox controller phone mounts available?

Hey gamers!

So, I've been getting more into mobile gaming lately, and I'm tired of propping my phone up against random stuff while I play. Time to get serious, you know? I'm thinking of grabbing one of those phone mounts for my Xbox controller, but man, there are so many options out there!
I've been reading reviews online, but I want to hear from real people who've actually used these things. What's your go-to mount?

Here's what I'm really looking for:
- Something that won't wobble when I'm in the middle of an intense match. Nothing worse than your phone flopping around, right?
- It's gotta work with the new Xbox Series X|S controllers. I upgraded recently and don't want any compatibility headaches.
- I switch between phones sometimes, so it needs to handle different sizes. Bonus points if it can hold a phone with a chunky case!
- And obviously, I don't want it to fall apart after a month. Build quality matters!

If you've got a mount you swear by, I'd love to hear about it. Or hey, if there's one that's absolute trash, warn a brother so I don't waste my money!

Thanks for any tips you can throw my way.

I noticed some mounts come with additional features like adjustable angles or even a charging port. Does anyone think these features are worth the extra money, or should I just go with a basic Xbox controller phone mount?

I think it depends on how often you plan to use it and what features are important to you. If you're gaming for long periods, adjustable angles can help prevent neck strain, and a built-in charging port is great if you're worried about your phone's battery life. On the other hand, if you're just casually gaming or using it for short sessions, a basic Xbox controller phone mount should do the job just fine. Personally, I went for one with adjustable angles, and it's been a game-changer for comfort!

I've been using the OtterBox mobile gaming clip for my Xbox controller phone mount. It's super sturdy and fits my iPhone perfectly. Definitely one of the best xbox phone mounts I've tried!

For me, the WEPIGEEK Controller Mobile Phone Holder is the way to go. It's a solid phone holder for xbox controller that works great with both standard and elite controllers. Bro, plus it folds up nicely for storage.

don't forget about weight!!! distribution when choosing an xbox controller phone mount, you want something that won't make your hands tired during long gaming sessions.

I recommend the Orzly Xbox Controller Phone Mount. It's a great phone holder for Xbox controllers and works well with both iPhone and Android devices. It's adjustable and has a good grip, so you don't have to worry about your phone slipping.

Has anyone tried those generic brands on Amazon? I'm wondering if they're any good or if I should stick to the name brands for an xbox controller phone holder.

I've had mixed experiences with generic brands. Some are decent, but I'd recommend sticking with known brands for better build quality and compatibility.

xDDD, just hold the phone in your hand while gaming. Who needs a fancy Xbox phone holder? Your hands are free anyway, right?))

For those using the iphone xbox controller mount, does the mount obstruct any of the buttons or ports?/ I've seen some mounts that seem to cover the headphone jack or charging port,, which would be a dealbreaker for me.

No worries, the iPhone Xbox controller mounts I've used don't block any buttons or ports. Just make sure to choose a mount that's specifically designed for Xbox controllers and iPhones, and you should be good to go!

I've seen a lot of phone mounts for Xbox controllers, but I'm still on the fence about getting one, they seem convenient, though..

It would be nice to have something that I can use both for gaming and as a regular phone stand))

Who needs a phone mount? Just duct tape your phone to the controller LoL
