The iOttie Easy One Touch Qi Wireless Fast Charge Car Mount works great with the iPhone 8/8 Plus and Sammy S8+'s in our household. Comes complete with the appropriate charger and cable. The extendable arm and swivel lets you position it in many combinations. The fast charge is about 1/3 quicker than the standard Qi wireless chargers.
Although a bit pricy, I highly recommend ProClip. You buy the mount for the car and the holder for the phone separately, so it fits very securely in your car and holds the phone perfectly.
Was terrible for me, slow to charge and fell off the dash twice, returned.
Wow. Mine has been rock solid since I installed it in November. It gives me a small positive charge with Google Maps running and streaming music from my device via BT to the car stereo.
It was more the falling off the dash, was over Summer, doesn't like the heat especially if parked in the sun. Australia
My current car has its own phone storage place so I use it instead.
I use the Spigen magnetic air vent mount.

Another vote for iOttie, they are hard to beat for the price. Yes Proclips are great, but spendy $$$.
I like some of the ones that charge as well but don’t care for how they mount. I prefer vent mounted or CD slot mounted since I don’t use CDs
The one I linked to above vent mounts. Good craftsmanship too!
OTOH, it depends on how you look at it. How much is it worth it to you to feel secure that your phone holder won't lose its "grip" and dump your iPhone X to the floor of your car? People here happily pay $50 or more for a case for their iPhone, even though you can find cases $10 or less on Amazon and elsewhere. Yet I don't see complaints about how a Lifeproof, UAG, or Spigen case is "too expensive," much less Apples own cases. So I'm not sure I understand why the more secure, and easier to use, option is being criticized for being "spendy?"
I’ve used the iOttie 2 going on 3 years now daily. I’ve not had one mishap in that time. I paid about $20 bucks on sale at amazon, not a $100 +. It not only works my current phone but the 3 other iPhones I’ve had plus about 4 different models of Androids in whatever cases they’ve been in. I believe the Proclip holder is more device specific and less forgiving to multiple device/case combinations ...
