PopSockets - Low-Pro Grip for MagSafe, Ultra-Thin Magnetic Phone Grip with Kick-Out Stand - Black

This product is amazing overall. The grip is nice on my fingers, and, unlike the competing product, it feels nice being a rubber-like material rather than plastic. On top of that, the built in slim kickstand is such a joy to use, being able to use it in almost any angle. My only complaint is the fact that I can't easily use one finger with the product to hold my phone. Other than that, I love this grip.

The new Pop Socket Ultra Thin stand and grip has been a nice new accessory that has many nice features with only a few quirks. The first thing you will notice is that the Pop Socket ultra thin grip feels like it is very high quality. The folding stand ring is very tight and will not buckle under the weight of your phone. It will keep your phone up at any angle and not fold over accidentally. You can stand the phone up horizontally or vertically. In fact, it is so strong, that it can be a challenge to unfold it if you have very short fingernails like I do. But once you open it, it will stay in whatever position you want. The pop out grip is kind of dicey. You can slide it in order to get it to pop out, or you can try to pry it. Once it is out, it is very comfortable in your hand. The only issue is that the middle peice that folds out is very thin. I know this is the idea, but it does not feel very sturdy in your fingers. Especially if you have a heavy phone. My main phone is a Galaxy Ultra with a heavy mag-bak case, and the grip does not feel secure when you hold it. My secondary phone is an iPhone 14, which is smaller and way lighter, and it feels totally fine. I am just not sure this is for everyone. When folded away flat, the grip is very thin. I like this since it does not get snagged on my jean pockets. Your phone can even wirelessly charge with the grip folded flat, however it takes about twice as long to charge your phone and gets very hot. I would not recommend using it while your phone wirelessly charges on a summer day in your car. Overall, I do like the Pop Socket ultra thin grip, but I can't picture myself using it every day. I will continue to use my Pop Socket Kick Back stand which feels so much better in my hand. But if you have a lighter phone and like the super thin look and feel, give this Pop Socket a try.

This is an extremely thin PopSocket. I tried it out shortly but I will say I think this is suited more for people with thinner fingers as I personally couldn't get comfortable with it. So I gave it to my wife who has longer, thinner fingers than me and she absolutely loves it. She said now that she has it she can't live without it. She loves how thin and noninvasive it is on the back of the phone. The magnet is strong and still allows you to attach to other magsafe products, however one issue we are running into is wireless charging does not seem to be as effective, or existent really at all. I am pairing this with a DBrand ghost case so it could be the case interfering. It adds practically no additional weight. My wife notes she likes how flexible it is and the texture used, she states how gives her much better grip. She also likes that when she isn't using it, you can't even tell it's there and how it doesn't get in the way of using the phone as is. The kickstand is nice too, she uses it to stand her phone up when listening to music. Now as a larger male the only thing I'd recommend is to make one that can stretch further out and to extend a little more for my thicker fingers. Other than that, this is a really impressive PopSocket and it has been very beneficial to my wives every day use.

To be completely honest, I have never used a Pop Socket on my phone before this one. I never really saw the allure or need, and, to take it further, I kind of looked odd at those who did. Well…I guess what they say is true: ignorance is bliss (sort of), or maybe, don’t judge a book by its cover. I really like this thing. Perhaps these have always been great, or maybe this model is just that good. Regardless, it has been working for me. Admittedly, I am holding my phone slightly differently which is taking some time to get used to, but it is very comfortable to use and feels very secure in my hand. Which, really, is the goal. I do feel kind of foolish for never trying one sooner. The compact, simple, and small stand is just another bonus and a great add. It works well, in all orientations, and eliminates any friction when either watching or creating content on the go or whenever I need to be hands free. Beyond all of that though, the biggest thing for me is how slim and out of the way it is. It is so thin it really almost does not seem there. I think that was the main reason I never gave one a try. I didn’t want the bulk. The MagSafe application is another ease-of-use thing that I really appreciate. No adhesives, easy off and on (but still sturdy), AND allows for charging as well as very versatile mounting options. Lastly, while quite affordable, it is well-built and I think they made some good materials choices. It is nice to see. I will have to keep an eye on it, but I suspect it will hold up over time, even with my phone in my hand admittedly more than I would like. In the end, even though I had my doubts going in, it turns out I was the one missing out and should have been the one getting those odd looks I was giving. This is a solid product, does what it advertises, very well, and, most importantly to me, I think offers some real life improvements. I think for what you get, the cost, and given how much time we all spend on our phones, the value is definitely there here.

The modern smartphone has become an essential part of our lives, almost like another appendage. The PopSockets MagSafe Low-Pro simplifies handling your phone securely and provides a convenient stand, all while maintaining a sleek, unobtrusive design. With its minimalist appearance, I barely notice it until I need it. The Low-Pro really bares its name as it is so thin with the retractable grip so flush. Out of the package, it was ready to go as it snapped solidly to my MagSafe compatible phone cover. It doesn’t move an inch once installed and feels part of the phone cover. I’ve never had an issue sliding in and out of my pocket. Operating the PopSockets Low-Pro is truly easy. With a quick tug, the “Ultra-Thin” grip pops out without effort and snaps back with authority into its flush position. With the grip out, it provides a secure anchor and I no longer fear dropping my phone, which has happened a lot in the past. One thing I’ve noticed is that the grip feels a bit tight with my larger hands, and during extended sessions the tight squeeze becomes noticeable but it’s no deal breaker; better tight than too loose. The feature I use the most, especially at the office, is the multi-angle stand. No more looking for a separate stand, or improvising with a mug or a back wall, the ‘Ultra-Thin” stand is a true revelation. Whether you want your phone to stand horizontally or vertically, it maintains the set angle perfectly without worry that it would move. I found it to be 100% reliable every time I used it. I’ve also noticed that I don’t need to remove it with the Magsafe car mount in my vehicle which is another plus. As for charging to a MagSafe pad or stand, it has to be removed which is to be expected. In conclusion, The PopSocket Ultra-Low is a real winner. It resolves the main complaint of traditional grips with its low unobtrusive profile while tightly hugging the phone cover and providing a stable reliable stand and a secure grip that effortlessly pops in and out. With its sleek look and great quality build, I’d recommend it to everybody with a MagSafe phone holder.
