Sorry in advance, I wasn't sure where to put this.

I'm looking for some decent dash mounts for my phone, Galaxy Note, and my tablet. I can find a huge array of phone and tablet holders online, but want to get something sturdy without breaking the bank.

If any of you can help I would appreciate it.

Mob Armor, mag mounts. Clean, easy, holds perfectly. I use the ones with magnetic mounts at both ends. This gives me the ability to remove them and just have a metal plate of the dash. This is important for me as my 85 pound German Shepherd often sits in the front seat. If he knocks into one it will move or come off, leaving the plate still attached. No damage, no issue, goes right back on.
 
I have the Nite Ize Steelie. Works great! Oh and they have a tablet mount as well. I like having the magnet on my phone since I can stick it on magnetic surfaces and be hands free.
 
Always used either RAM (Ipad) or Brodit (phone) mounts. You pay for what you get. Never had one fall off yet and even with the weight of an Ipad, the RAM mount is stable enough.
 
I did quite a bit of reading on this subject recently, and I ended up getting RAM X-Grip mount for my phone. I'm quite happy with it, and although it was on the expensive side, I feel the overall quality and performance justify the cost for me.

Waiting on my JKE Dock and RAM mounts for my phone, tablet, and GoPros! Super excited. Do you happen to know of any JKE Dock-friendly mounts for the Delorme InReach SE? I feel like I spent hours yesterday trying to find a solution and got frustrated and gave up.
 
For my HAM headunit and phone I use a Ram mount X grip and a double ball bolted to my dash(inconspicuously). I use a Nite Ize Steelie to hold my HAM mic.

I think RAM mounts are the gold standard and by far the most configurable.

I use a Ram suction cup on the windshield for my IPhone, and I used Goop to attach a Ram base to the dash to support my tablet
Works great, had this setup for a year now

I use the RAM mount's X-Grip on my motorcycle. Best mount ever. But...
... for the car, I got a ZAAP mount from Amazon. Cheap(er), lets me unhook the phone from the mount with one hand and has a pressure sensitive lockin which makes it simpler. It works well for mild off-road and tarmac.

Coming back to RAM, if hard offroading is your thing, you cannot go wrong with it.
 
If your going to be driving on some rough trails, I suggest getting a RAM mount. Yeah, it’s a bit pricey compared to others but it’s worth it. Plus, their made in the USA.

There is a Ram mount for the InReach SE, but seems like they are getting harder to find:

I use the RAM-HOL-U4U universal finger grip with my JKE dock and it works pretty well.
 
I ordered a Ram X mount for iPhone. should have it here tomorrow... I have a question though.. Will the suction cup suck and hold onto the flat plastic surfaces ok.. I don't want to mount it to the windshield..
