Separable ball and socket assembly for electronic device mounts

A mounting assembly for mounting an electronic device to a surface, the mounting assembly comprising:

• a base including circular platform operable to removably mount to the surface utilizing suction, an arm extending from the platform, a mounting ball positioned on a distal end of the arm, and a lever operable to facilitate coupling the platform to the surface;
• and
• a socket assembly operable to removably couple with the electronic device, the socket assembly including a seat having a plurality of curved arms that are operable to receive and frictionally engage the ball to removably and rotatably couple the socket assembly to the base.
