Quad Lock Out Front Phone Mount — Specs & Analysis
Manufacturer specifications, compared against every other electronics & power in our database. We do not test gear in the field — we measure, verify, and compare.
If your phone IS your GPS, the Quad Lock is the most secure way to mount it. The twist-lock mechanism and vibration dampener protect your phone from trail vibrations that can damage camera stabilizers. Requires a Quad Lock phone case (sold separately).

The Bottom Line
We haven't scored the Quad Lock Out Front Phone Mount, and neither has anyone else we can cite. It's here for its verified specifications and dimensions, which is what the fit tools run on — a score is an editorial judgement, and we don't hand one out until someone has a basis for it. What this page can tell you is measured: 66g, $40, and how both sit against every other electronics & power product we track.

How it compares
Against the 13 electronics & power products we hold published specs for.
At 66g the Out Front Phone Mount is lighter than 9 of 12 alternatives we track. The category median is 195g.
At $40 it undercuts 9 of 12 of them, against a median of $60. That works out at $61 per 100g — above the $40 median for electronics & power products.
Weight and price come from published specifications. Cost per 100g is a blunt measure — it rewards light gear and says nothing about durability or whether the thing works — so treat it as one input, not a verdict.
