The Sandmarc Active Car Mount has a sleek all-black design and has a ring of magnets to connect via the MagSafe magnet ring to any iPhone 12 model. It charges via Qi and is capable of outputting up to 7.5W. It is powered by a sole USB Type-C port though a car charger is not included.

According to the company, the magnets are extra strong to help prevent even serious bumps from dislodging the phone while driving.

It is currently up for preorder from Sandmarc for $59.99. Shipments of the device will start on July 27.
