When you want to keep your phone handy while riding your motorcycle in Metro Manila or any other cities in the country, you're going to need a motorbike phone mount/holder. Fortunately here in the Philippines, while there are rules that prohibit riders from using a handsfree device, there is nothing prohibiting them from using phone mount/holders while riding.
