Summary : There is no better fitting or looking car kit for the HTC One on the market
If there is one accessory that I find a must have when I buy it’s a Car Kit. For years I used generic car holders that fit pretty much any device however they seem to break a lot or simply cause problems for volume buttons etc…
I’ve come to learn since getting my Samsung Galaxy Nexus that there’s no point scrimping when it comes to car kits. Buying the official one is often expensive however depending how often you use the car and how often you use the phone when in the car there simply is no substitute to the official ones.
My daily driver just now is the HTC One and my car is a nice family vehicle, the Citroen C3 Picasso (which has a really steep window gradient) so how would the official car kit for the handset measure up to generic one I had been using until this one arrived?

Materials: Polycarbonate + Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS).
Build Quality: There simply isn’t a part of this kit that HTC have scrimped money on. The materials used scream premium at touch and you can tell that it’s going to take a lot of wear and tear before this product becomes unusable.

Conclusion
Conclusion
One of the best parts of this dock is how easy it is to get the HTC One in and out of the dock on a steep gradient window.
I have tried the Brodit version of this dock and to be 100% honest it doesn’t even come close to being as good as this.
