Does it connect to the port firmly can I make a phone call when it is connected or it will come loose very easy??

It's the strongest magnet I have come across for charging. It stays connected but it can still disconnect fairly easy. Nothing beats a direct micro USB connection.

As with most magnets, if you angle the connector, it'll lose its grip. The only way you could make a call with this charger attached is if you held it in place or were extremely careful not to press on the side of the connector during the call. Fortunately, due to its location, it's not too hard to hold in place while you're using the phone.

IF you move around it will fall off, you can use it if you are careful but I don't think it was made for use while charging. although it does charge fast.

It has a secure docking port on the back. I find it easy to get out and easy to store. I don't believe it would come out accidentally

If your USB port on the phone is broke, it will hold the phone but the Car Mode won't be triggered. It takes both the base to be plugged in and the phone installed to trigger the Car Mode

Well it is connected but the phone slides out of the part with the clip an it stays attached to your belt or what ever u clip it to an the phone is in a seperate protective case i recommend it its really cool.

Does.. Is just a little hard to get in an out.. I guess is because it has to anchor itself and the phone weight

There is a little click, to keep it closed. When you open it you will see there is piece that pushes in and out and that is what holds it closed. Kind of hard to explain. If it is not connecting to it then there is a problem with it. I had a friend who got one of these and had to return in because the charge was not working, and she said they were great. They did not ask any question, just sent her a new one.

It's a pretty loose fit. I find mine will only stay in if the USB cable is plugged in, snug and secure.Overall not a great investment.

Just push it in. Sometimes you may have to force it in, but other than pushing it in that's how I made the connection.

Charging the phone is not an issue, it works well. But the phone holder which holds the phone from either sides is very loose, the phone never stays in place.

Yes but if you have a thick phone case you may have to take it off for it to connect properly.

It gets stuck almost everytime I needed to charge it. Just waiting a few minutes and try to remove it. Good luck, mine just fell apart.

No not at all, the connection is very tight but you have to make sure that it "snaps" and is really together, ours is still doing the job and very happy with the purchase

It could be that where is connect to could possibly be loose. I have not had that problem. But its said to be after much movement the cable tips could go bad

I have used it with clip-on and "hold it on tight" connections with success. The Topeak unit is great.

This arm band is open at the top. It isn't hard to get the phone in or out when it is loose. Strapping it to your arm puts enough tension on it to keep it secure. My wife's phone has the headphone jack on top so I knew there wouldn't be any issue connecting her headphones. If yours is on the bottom, there are three small holes on the bottom that may or may not line up with the jack. The material on the bottom is stretchy so it probably will, but I couldn't say for sure.

I normally run the cable directly to phone. Because it makes your life easier to take out the phone from the dock, plus if you do take out you can have continuous charge to the phone while the phone is on the passenger sit. I am worried about the cable pulling the phone, it actually exerting minimal force on the phone. I hope I answered all your questions.

I've had my unit for 4 months - it's never been knocked over and I haven't noticed any damage to the port. The slot into which the tablet fits is quite tight and this accounts for most of the "holding properties" of the dock - in other words, the tablet doesn't simply stay upright in the dock because of the charging port connection.
