Mobile phones are a way of life these days whether you like it or not, we rely on them for so much including social media, navigation, phone calls, texting and much more.
Now, we do not encourage people to use their mobile phones whilst riding a motorcycle as that is incredibly dangerous and illegal, however as I am sure you are aware, nearly every motorcycle comes without a built-in navigation system.
95% of Reviewers recommend The Bike Insurer (based on 8940 reviews on www.reviews.co.uk as at 03/05/23)
This leaves you to either rely on listening out for your phone navigation in your pocket telling you to turn left just as you’re passing the exit forcing you to re-route or to go without any navigation and just try and figure this out for yourself. This can be a bit of a nightmare.
Therefore your best option is to purchase a mobile phone holder that sits on your handlebars/dash and allows you to see where you need to go.
There are many things to look out for when choosing a mobile phone holder as you’ll want it to also protect your phone in the instance of an accident, things like build quality, waterproofing and how secure your phone is are all important.
It’s worth noting that most modern mobile phones are water-resistant, if not waterproof meaning they can survive being submerged for 30 minutes for up to one metre underwater, therefore in rainy and wet conditions you won’t have to worry about your expensive smartphone being damaged.
We’ve compiled a list of some of the best holders on the market:

SP Connect Phone Holder
This case is different to many given that it has a dedicated phone case that replaces the case you may use on your phone, simply attach it to the bars of your motorcycle using its easy to use grip, install your phone in the case with the weatherproof cover on it and click it into place on the holder.
It comes in at a higher price than the order items but the security that the item provides is worth it.
Quad-Lock Motorcycle Handlebar Mount
I don’t know about you but I’ve seen this advertised EVERYWHERE, at half the price of the SP Connect Phone Holder with similar features, you can expect the same format of putting your phone into a dedicated case and clipping it to your handlebars.
This item also has a vibration dampener which is optional to stop your phone from rattling around.
Cheeroyal Universal 360° Switch Water Repellent Motorbike Phone Holder
Coming in at the cheaper end of the scale we have this waterproof holder that encases your phone by zipping it into a bar and securing that to the handlebars, great for short journeys but if you want to go long distances we’d recommend something more sturdy.
Givi S957B Universal Smartphone Holder
Givi have come out with their own smartphone holder that also encases your phone into a holder allowing you to view the screen whilst riding with waterproof protection, the difference with this one is that it also has a lip on the top to deflect water spray and of course is backed by the Givi brand name, you know you are going to get a quality product with this.
