Here's The Smartphone Mounting System You've Been Waiting For

The convergence of technology that has resulted in the modern smartphone has completely transformed how we go about our day-to-day lives. Communication, wayfinding, commerce, entertainment, education, it is all at our fingertips on a single device that is continuously network connected, with a large, high resolution display and easy to use interface. For the more active and adventurous among us, bringing the smartphone along for the ride is no longer a matter of tossing it in a bag to use to call someone in the case of an emergency, but rather a necessary accessory used for GPS mapping and tracking, monitoring vehicle performance, entertainment, communications, and more. The smartphone is now required to be installed front and center, easy to view and access, secure, and, preferably, easy to mount and remove. Leading the innovation in this area, A2C just launched the One-Lock Ultra Series, its most advanced phone mount system to date.

With flagship smartphones costing thousands of dollars, keeping them safe and secure on rides is a high priority. Yet a mount also needs to be easy to use, with an intuitive connection system that allows the phone to be mounted and removed easily, but will not release the phone accidentally. A2C addresses all of these requirements with clever design, smart engineering, and meticulous materials selection.

The One-Lock Ultra Series starts with a combination of Magnetic Auto-Alignment Technology with a Mechanical Quick-Lock Structure for securing the phone to the mount. This integration of a magnetic and mechanical system provides the speed and intuitiveness of the magnetic force pulling the phone into the mount, with the ultimate security and tactile feedback “click” of the mechanical lock. Quick, one-second performance, and easy, one-handed operation can be done blind, and without the need for manual alignment. Magnetic speed and mechanical security, all in one. An integrated Accidental-Release Prevention Feature prevents the phone from being released if the release button is accidentally pressed.

Once the phone is in the mount, the phone can be positioned via a Triple-Stage Adjustment system that combines 360-degree phone rotation with dual-ball tilt adjustment. Portrait, landscape, viewing height, and viewing angle are all quickly and easily adjusted and fine-tuned.

Keeping the phone safe from vibrations and jolts is a major factor for motorcyclists. The One-Lock Ultra Series accomplishes this using Multi-Layer Vibration-Damping Technology, a system that manages both continuous vibrations, as well as sudden impact forces. Magnetic Float Suspension is what isolates the phone from continuous vibration. Air-Cushion Protection absorbs sudden bumps and impacts. Vibration-Damping Phone Mount Structure helps dissipate forces throughout the mount, avoiding the concentration of stress on the phone itself. Together, these engineering solutions protect the sensitive hardware of the smartphone from damage.

While the One-Lock Ultra Series is designed to protect your phone, it is also engineered for durability, longevity, and a premium aesthetic. A2C uses what it calls Multi-Material Durability, which combines materials such as vibration-damping high-performance polymers, with structural elements constructed of aircraft-grade aluminum. Metal surfaces receive a UV-resistant anodized finish for corrosion resistance and protection against sun exposure, while aluminum parts are treated with an electrophoretic metal finish, which improves wear resistance and corrosion protection. A silver film-coated finish with carbon-fiber-style edging is used on the lock head, providing a high-quality look.

One-Lock smartphone cases are just as well engineered as their mounts. These mounts are constructed with multi-layer, impact resistant materials, slip-resistant and scratch-resistant surfaces, and are designed for enhanced drop protection. An anti-fingerprint matte finish is used on select surfaces to provide a smooth, comfortable feel, while resisting smudges.

A2C’s One-Lock Ultra Series is the latest development of their modular mounting lineup, part of its overall ecosystem of products. As such, the Ultra Series supports MagSafe-compatible devices, Qi wireless charging, and the One-Lock Universal Adapter. Being part of this ecosystem also ensures broad compatibility across devices and platforms, and allows users to move effortlessly between motorcycles, bicycles, and cars, using a single mounting system. This reduces the need for multiple mounts and accessories, providing a more efficient, adaptable and future-ready solution for riders and drivers alike.

In fact, A2C stands for Adaptive to Change, and is a company that began when a poor-quality car mount failed, and a hardware engineer set out to design and engineer the best accessory mounts possible. More secure, more stable, easier to use, the kind of product that works so well, it is invisible in use. Products that fit the lifestyle of the active and adventurous, taking advantage of the power of the smartphone. Find out more at https://www.apps2car.com/m5.
