Where does everyone keep their phone?

I haven't found a decent location to mount my iPhone in my X2. I think my best bet is the WeatherTech cup mount, but then I would have to keep my cup holder doors open all the time. I guess I could use Bluetooth and just put my phone in the center console between the seats. Where does everyone mount their phone?

Have X1 not X2 but I bought a short 1ft usb cable (lightning) and plug phone into slot in center console. All calls made and received done through hands free, messages can be displayed in central information display screen. I can select and play music in similar way, album artwork shows on main display. In brief, no need to put phone anywhere in view. If it’s charged it can be left in a bag or pocket and still connect via Bluetooth. I do however understand not everyone has all options fitted and BMW idrive software sure prefers Apple iOS to android. I love the X2 which only came out after I had bought X1, either way I hope you get great enjoyment from your car.

I purchased a CD mounted phone holder through amazon. Doesn't get in the way of much other than the quick keys from 3 to 7 (Samsung S9 Plus in horizontal)
