So, $35 for a mirror that clips to your phone?

There's something bogus about the video.
Look at what is on screen in the picture. I think they've 'fixed' the reflection in the mirror for most of the video but missed a few frames.

Why not just use a $5 phone holder that has a sucker to fix to the windshield?

I think in CA setting your phone on the dash doesn't qualify as "mounted".

But how are they getting the lettering so its not reversed? So it is not just a mirror. Looks cool, but still don't know if I would buy one for $35. Maybe $15-20

I've seen some apps (digital speedometer comes to mind) where the app will reverse the display so you can see the reflection in your windscreen, as a HUD, the correct way round. Don't know how effective that would be on a sunny day. Wonder ig Google could add a reverse screen feature to maps?
$35 does seem a bit steep
