While the Qi /wireless charging works, the inner sending transformer is small and difficult to align on several phones. The plate slot helps align during road bumps. Unfortunately in Florida where my dash can get 100+ F in minutes the adhesive pad completely failed and began to melt. I will find a different solution for my scenario.

Works well enough, depending on your phone case. But also if your trying to use car pay. And you still have to plug it in this is just a waste of money.

Great mount I use magsafe on vent.
Iphone got weight so hold doesn’t seem strong enough but magnets been holding good so far, vent mount could use more swivel the vents in my Acura have weird layout need to turn screen a little more. The wireless charging is great just stick and grab. I don’t recommend for cars that have to plug-in for carplay or android auto the wireless charging would be useless for all other cars you shouldn’t be disappointed

This was added to my Mercedes E-class to facilitate charging and use of iPhone features while traveling. It looks like it belongs, and charges well. The only downside is that the iPhone 11 Pro Max I use for my business (AR feature was the reason) is a bit heavy and falls out if not carefully placed.
Later iPhones have the MagSafe charging system, which holds more securely. It may be time to upgrade my phone.

Works great, but a pain to set up

Great product, but the magnetic plate part of it is a bit of a pain to deal with.
You have to be mindful of the type of case you have on your phone, if you are using one. Silicone type cases do not work great with this mount at all. I managed to make it work by using a large adhesive strip that usually comes in the packs of the metal plates that work with pop sockets and other magnetic mounts and then I used super glue to adhere the metal plate in the correct spot so that when I attached my phone to the mount it would hit the wireless charging exactly right. This was a lengthy process but it was worth it to have this type of charging capability instead of using the charging port.
The charger portion works great. The design could be better, but over all this works really well.
The mounting could be better as well. Because of the way the bracket is, The tilt on it doesn't tilt as much as I would have liked it forcing me to not use it and I used 3M high strength velcro instead.

The kit has a lot of options for mounting. In my car the vent mount doesn't work because my dash is sloped and the vent mount isn't long enough. The dash mount is perfect though, assuming the adhesive holds it should work out great.
I can confirm this mag mount works with Google Pixel 8 Pro with TORRAS Magsafe Compatible Case and does charge. I'm not sure the wattage, but guessing it's at 7.5 watts, so not fast by any means but better than nothing.

+The magnetic connection is great. It holds the phone on the stand better than most even on bumpy roads.
~You will want to use the adhesive version of the stand instead of the vent mount if you have a larger phone. It won’t stay pressed into the vents over bumps. The adhesive does come off your dash if you need to remount it.
-The charging portion could have been a more widely used connection. It has a USB C but doesn’t use it.

It charges, but failed in less in one year. Bumpy roads knock-off the phone so it is dangerous to go fish for it while driving. Sadly the placement in the vent that does not interfere with the shifter places the phone too far away from operating bands-free more than one touch (2000 Ford F150).
A hardwired 12-V adapter may eliminate another connector as a failure point, but also eliminates flexibility with ubiquitous USB-c chargers. And it wasn’t the plug-in that failed but the wireless coupler. For a buck a week in cost I give it no more than an average rating, the prior clamping charger had its own flaws.
