Going to the stubby double socket did the trick for my current situation. Both phone and charger sit in a much more sturdy fashion and the fit is better in the small car I currently drive. My phone stays exactly where I put it which is nice when putting in the miles on the road. I routinely use Ways and Spotify and this rig keeps the brains of the outfit oriented well and maybe most importantly off the floor.
For any thinking of making a RAM MOUNT investment, and an investment it is, I cant tell you that they are perfect and will never fail but of the pieces I have used I've never had a mechanical failure from one of their components. The high heat in the car did play a part in ruining the X-Grip Rubber Caps but I expect there was warning about not leaving them in direct sun. The pieces I've used have been rock solid. My usage may not be as rough as some peoples but my RAM MOUNTS have worked and continue to work where many other Walmart & Amazon "budget brands" have failed in sadly short periods of time.
The RAM MOUNT products are built like Tanks , Sturdy, heavy duty and I believe really built to last where others have let me down. If there were a downside I would say beware of the weight and size of some pieces. I believe its the nature of the beast for building this type of quality. a bit of bulk and weight are the trade off. I think its a fair trade, others may feel differently.

TIP: for people who are wondering how to differentiate the plastic (composite) type and aluminum as they look the same in the pictures, you can tell by its model, RAP is composite and RAM is aluminum.
the RAP versions though is made of composite plastic, I think it is heavy duty, I haven't break one. so a good alternative if you want a lighter setup.
I purchased the "Grifiti Nootle 9 Inch Flexible Metal Black Gooseneck" and added a "RAM Double Socket Arm" and a "RAM Ball Adapter with 1/4"-20 Threaded Hole" to attach the 'TACKFORM Motorcycle Phone Mount - 1" Ball Connection' which has a death grip and it puts my phone within easier view and reach.
Specific to this double ball adapter it provides a superior grip for my use case. I've only finger tightened it down but nothing has moved at all despite some trail rides and a lot of bouncing with a heavy phone on it. Perfect for a customized mount like I've described.
