and a Samsung S8+ (too big for cup holder)

Sure I can put it in the arm rest but gota lift it put it in there, ... bottom line is arm rest is much of an inconvenient

If I put it anywhere else including on the passenger sit it goes flying under the seat, ....

So I was thinking maybe one of these "Pocket" that go between the seats and central area ????

Where do you put yours?

I put my phone right in front of the shifter, where the hazard and SRM buttons are. Quick within reach, and visible when using Google maps.

You may want to try this thing that I bought off of eBay. You get a 1.5" dia flat magnetic piece to put inside the back of your phone case. Then the main part slides into/onto your A/C vent louvers on the dash. Then your phone just stays on it magnetically. Works well and it is pretty cheap....

In the armrest since the USB is in there too.

Basically it doesn't fly around and I sure as hell never look at it.

I bought one of these for my old Galaxy Note 4. My current phone is the same: Galaxy 8+. It fits in this as well.

I upgraded my phone charger to support USB-c when I got the 8+.
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I don't yet own a tester for USB-c, but the USB A plug I tested and it drives 5.15V which is within specification and will not burn up your battery.

I also bought a USB-c to USB-c cable.

I had an old scrap of velcro I put around the windshield mount. I gathered up the slack in the cable with it and left the end with a few inches free to make it easy to plug in.

The adapter lives in the passenger footwell plug.

If I don't have a passenger I wedge it into the passenger seat between the top and back. It stays tight, doesn't fly around, and I can still have cords sticking into it. If someone is there it goes in the drivers door and let me tell ya, it's a b**** to get it out of there sometimes. I wear slim pants so the pocket is a no go when driving lol.
