Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.
