3. Allows me to hide the cable inside the narrow channel between the windshield and the headliner
4. The text-to-speech feature keeps my eyes on the road
I tried emulating this, but I prefer placing it just above the dashboard, stuck to the windshield. I don't mind having to reach out when saving locations or whenever I need to input anything, and it doesn't really obstruct my view, plus having it near my point of view center line allows me to look at it more safely (compared to having it near the mirror) from time to time.

As to hiding it from prying eyes outside, it's not an issue -- I always remove the mount before leaving the car in public places anyway and I carry the unit with me (I don't leave any valuables inside vehicles anymore -- burned too many times by bukas-kotse gangs). Helps to avoid getting marks on the tint, too.
