Easy as 1, 2, 3, 4: iOttie Easy One Touch 4
Staff pickiOttie has been a leading brand for car mounts for years, and the Easy One Touch 4 is the best mount it's ever made. It's easy to use, can be positioned at just about any angle you'd ever want and can accommodate the Pixel XL or Pixel 2 XL with or without a case.

Best for rental cars: Trianium Magnetic Air Vent Car Phone Mount
Best magnetic mountThere are cheaper versions of this super compact style, but Trianium's has 6 magnets sit inside this mount instead of the usual 4. Its refined aluminum look is perfect for business travelers and other car-hopping users looking for something sophisticated yet fun.

Magnets with a curve: Nite Ize Original Steelie Dash Mount Kit
Making sharp turns and hitting potholes? Nite Ize's magnet is super strong and the concave magnetic dot moves around the mount's ball to prevent it from falling off. This magnetic mount boasts a bold look, and it gets the job done.

Upgrade your CD player: Koomus Pro CD Slot Car Mount
Koomus's low-profile mount is easy to slip into the long-forgotten CD slot, allowing you to mount your phone in an easily visible location without damaging the old disc player. The slide-out clamp holds your phone easily and can rotate 360 degrees.

Go pro: ProClip
For a completely customized car mount, direct your attention to ProClip. Eliminate the guesswork by customizing every aspect of your car mount and know that it's going to fit your Pixel — and your car's dashboard — just the way you want it to.
The magic of magnets
Magnetic car mounts are some of the most compact and effortless car mounts on the market. They don't wear out the way most spring-loaded mounts do and are far less bulky. I've always been partial to magnetic mounts like Trianium's, as they're easy to use with multiple phones or multiple cars. Since the Pixel and Pixel 2 lack wireless charging, you don't have to worry about the magnetic plates interfering with anything, either.
If you don't want a magnetic mount — whether because you tend to drive over pothole-riddled parkways or you just perfer the feel of a more robust car mount — the iOttie Easy One Touch 4 is adaptable, dependable, and will grip your Pixel tight as you head down that back-road "shortcut" that needed repaving in the 90s.
