Thanks for the reply. Any chance they can update the photos? The description is correct but the product photos really threw me off.
I ordered 4 of these and was sent 4 boxes of 16269. What was in the boxes was 16268. Spoke to tech and explained that the website doesn't match what Monoprice tech are looking at. Tech said that the 16268 is the adjustable mount and only after sending tech a screenshot of the website page and a picture of my 16269 mounts did they realize they may have a problem. Their solution was to have me return my order with a RMA and then re-order the 'wrong ones' in order to get the 'right' model and pay for shipping again (which costs than the 4 mounts). Was surprised at that, but will return the order. .

Will this work for an onyx radio for XM?
A shopper
on Jan 3, 2019
BEST ANSWER: I use it for my iPhone SE. not sure how heavy the onyx radio is. If it is similar to an iPhone, the magnet should be strong enough. It does require a flat back to attach the magnet to.

This mount requires a magnet to be placed on the back of my phone, but holds nicely. The magnet is provided.

The magnet is too weak to properly hold an iPhone. I wouldn’t recommend purchase.

Don't the magnets damage or interfere at all with the phone? Seems counter to what we've always been taught about "no magnets near electronics"

BEST ANSWER: The magnets would not be very strong so it would not damage your phone.

car mount
The item is priced right but unfortunately the piece that goes into the vent isn't built strong enough to last very long if your dash cant help support the weight of an iPhone due to the vibrations as you drive.

Could use a little more magnetic muscle.
It does what it needs to do, but I wish the magnet were a little stronger. My phone is a Pixel 2XL, with a case that has a metal flip-out ring on the back. It holds OK, but I worry that a bumpy road might be more than it could handle.

Magnetic Car Mount
This car mount works well, but keeps coming out with the phone on occasion. You have to "twist" the phone off and not just pull it out. Was a great deal for the price paid!!!
