I use this Scosche magnetic mount that I picked up on Amazon. I don't really use the phone itself while driving, but I like to have Carplay available, which means my phone is always plugged in. My biggest motivation for getting a mount was to avoid wires strewn all over the cab. My criteria included: relatively low profile, no adhesives that would need to attach to the phone/case, sturdy enough to avoid annoying vibrations, something that can articulate for different angles.

Happy to say that this little guys meets all criteria. I have an iPhone X. The magnetic plate sits between the back of the phone and the case. It has an adhesive backing, but I don't use it and it the plate has never moved since installing it. It's thin enough that it adds virtually no thickness. I think they sell the plates in other colors too to match different phone backings. Igot a short lightning cable that is permanently plugged into the dash USB outlet. The other end hangs on to a little clip on the back of the mount, so it's always ready.

I just use a suction mount to the windshield on my TJ. There's also not a lot of room for anything in a TJ. But it has never fallen off and keeps the phone at eye level when I'm trying to view trail maps offroad. I'll probably use the same on my JLUR when I get it until I can find something more permanent that I like. I'm definitely seeing a lot of good ideas here.

My dash mount arrived today from Amazon. I replaced the cable with a shorter 3A USB-C. Very fast to put the phone in and pull out.

How is this working out for you? Think this would work with a phone case?

Yes, it works with a case, even a big one. I can't take a photo of my phone in it because...

I see negative reviews about the charge cord must you use the one provided or can you use your own? And have you had any issues with the adhesive? All and all would you recommend this?

I threw out the provided cord the moment I opened the package. I replaced it with a very short USB-C to USB-C to get my 3A charge. This holder works very well for my needs. I have no complaints, but it's only been 3 months.

I got this and love it: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MLZZ7KA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It doesn't have wireless charging, and is a little more work to put the phone in, but it plugs in power/carplay for me (as its a dock) and holds onto the phone nice and tight.

Note: I also ended up heating/melting/bending the mount to better fit the contour on the dash bezel near the A/C vents.

This is the one I'm going to order when I get my Jeep.

67 design is money! It is so solid and if I need to touch the phone while in the car, the location is perfect. Great product!

Just installed the new phone mount from 67 Designs. A very easy install.

Does it vibrate/bounce when driving?

Not one bit. It is pretty solid.
