Everything you love about popsocket is now with a kickstand and a minimalistic wallet. Perfect for the night around town or to the gym.
The popsocket part is just like their other popsockets. You can easily customize as you wish. What makes this wallet super cool is the ability to pivot the wallet to become a kickstand too. Easily watch your favorite shows in landscape or portrait. The wallet holds up to 3 cards and with no issues of the cards falling out. Even if it only has 1 card in it. 3 cards may not sound like much but a driver’s license, credit card and ATM card is all I need when I want to travel light. MagSafe on the back works great with the latest iPhone models and it does come with a magsafe plate to convert other phones to be magsafe.
In summary, it’s to the high quality that popsocket is known for. Magsafe magnets are very secure, materials used will take what life throws at them, and feels good in the hand. My only gripe is that it’s a bit thick for just holding 3 cards. It could be a tad thinner in my opinion but that would probably sacrifice durability.

Pretty useful & nice little addition to the phone

“Popsocket MagSafe Kick-Out Wallet, Grip & Adjustable Stand” is a very useful addition to my Pixel phone. The magnet is quite strong and sticks firmly on a mag-safe phone.
The wallet’s pop-top is really handy to hold the phone making it really comfortable and offers a good grip preventing accidental slips.
The wallet can also serve as a stand. It can be pulled open to prop the phone in both portrait or landscape mode. It’s pretty sturdy in both orientations and very useful to watch videos during lunch.
The wallet claims to hold up to 3 credit cards, but practically I was able to place my DL and a credit card. The third one was difficult to put in.
The best part of the wallet is, it also comes with a mag-safe adaptor ring making this wallet attach to any non mag-safe phone. The adaptor needs to be attached to the back of the phone case.
Overall, I find this wallet a very useful addition to my phone which liberates me from carrying my wallet (for DL) every time I need to take my car out. Offers a firm grip preventing it from accidental slips and serves as a prop stand. I am very happy with this wallet and happy to recommend it.

Great addition to my phone

I have been wanting a PopSocket wallet for sometime now and this has one not disappointed me! I love the MagSafe connection onto my phone case. The PopSocket grip feels great and helps this clumsy lady hold onto her phone in a more secure way!!
The packaging is perfect and minimalistic, so easy to get the product out and ready to use. If your phone or case doesn’t have the MagSafe compatibility, don’t worry, PopSocket includes an adapter with adhesive you can install onto your phone or case to be able to use this MagSafe wallet with ease.
I will admit the wallet only holds three cards comfortably, so this is not an everyday option for me. The MagSafe PopSocket wallet is definitely helpful for my workdays or for days I just need my phone and ID. It does add some weight and bulk to your phone, especially if it is in a case, but not enough for me to dislike having the wallet on my phone. (I am a phone dropper, so a good sturdy case is a must for me.)
I like the kickstand feature if you want to watch or read something on your phone without holding it. Switching it between horizontal and vertical is super quick and easy. The kickstand feature is also good to take a photo if you have unsteady hands. The wallet feels completely secure, yet so easy to take off to utilize wireless charging. The product feels well made and of a high quality.
All-in-all, I quite enjoy owning this MagSafe PopSocket wallet and look forward to many years of using it!

Handy, but Pricey

I’ve been using a PopSocket on the back of my phone for a while to give me something to hold onto when using it for longer periods. The Popsocket PopWallet Kick-Out model is one step up, as my older model only has a grip that pops out, but the Kick-Out Wallet model has a flip out magnetic ring and an area where you can fit up to three credit or ID cards as well.
The PopWallet is barely larger than a credit card on it’s own, and about 1 x 4 x 6 inches in total size. It doesn’t even weight 2 ounces, so it doesn’t add any real weight to your phone. The idea behind the PopWallet is that you attach it to your mag-safe style phone by aligning the magnetic ring on the back of the PopWallet and it (should) stick to any phone with a magnetic back, or, if you have a case that has a magnet in it. The amount of strength of the magnet will vary if you’re using a case, depending on the case. Typically, they’re pretty strong, though. Once attached, you can flip the body of the PopWallet out while the ring stays attached to the phone. This allows you to prop your phone either vertically or horizontally, since the magnetic ring rotates, allowing you to swivel the wallet body around as needed. If you prefer you can just keep it against the phone and just pop out the round “PopTop” that you slide your fingers under, which can be swapped out for other PopTops (sold separately).
The wallet part of this allows you to slip a couple of cards in though the top slit, and the felt lined area at the bottom allows you to push up on it to ease the ends of the card(s) out through the top for retrieval. This will allow you, if needed, to go out for an errand or the day and just carry the most important 2-3 cards and ID you need rather than carry an entire wallet, should you prefer.
My one issue then, would be the build quality per cost. If you have thick fingers, it’s a bit snug even at maximum extension. Perhaps other PopTops have different widths, but the default that comes with this is best suited for thin to medium sized fingers, in my opinion. My older PopSocket has shown a good bit of wear and tear in the plastic extension part after having been used regularly – I’d like to see these be made a bit more solidly.
I would recommend the PopSocket PopWallet with a reservation or two: I would only use it with phones or cases with strong magnets, and I would wait for a sale, as the recommended retail price of $50.00 is to me, a bit steep for the build quality and what it offers. If on sale, give it a try.

Does what its supposed to, looks cheap, expensive!

This Magsafe kick out Wallet with pop socket does the job right.
Things I like:
Strong Magnet
Fits 3 cards
Pop socket works perfectly well
Great kick out stand in horizontal or vertical positions
easy to take cards out of wallet
has a magnetic ring that can be added to any phone or phone case to make it mag safe compatible
very practical
Things I don't like
looks like its made of cheap plastic- rough around the edges
too expensive for the quality and appearance
doesn't hold more than 3 cards
doesn't have a place to keep cash money
Made in China
things to consider when getting a magsafe pop socket wallet:
while its nice and convenient, it will be annoying to have to remove it every time you want to wirelessly charge your phone or device.
it makes the phone look and feel thicker especially if you have a case.
if you use a magsafe car holder, you will again have to remove it to attach the other magsafe device, or almost any stand for that matter.
at the end of the day this serves a purpose, and I would recommend it if it was cheaper than the current price, maybe at $25 at most. but not at the current price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Huge win for Fold 7

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I have owned several different pop sockets through the years. They have always been good quality. I have never owned a magsafe wallet though. If you own a Samsung Fold 7 this is a must have. If you own a foldable you are aware that even with a built in stand, socket or ring there are still stability issues especially in portrait mode. Many apps don't rotate properly so you need both orientations often. Add in the fact that the Fold 7 also has a magnetic charging coil mounted slightly to the right internally and stability is or was almost impossible to achieve. Not only does it fit but it just barely clears the camera bumps which cause so many products to tilt when attached. I never knew these existed. This checks every box you could want. Traditional pop socket with a stand and the ability to keep a few cards with you. If you have a standard phone it's still a great product but it's value is in the lack of products for foldable phones. If I had a couple critiques i would make the next version slightly smaller as in very slightly as cases with camera bump protection would likely cause the tilting issue. I would also upgrade the magsafe ring to a slightly better strength. It works though. Great design and i suggest testing future products with foldables also as that's where the market is going anyway.

Great combo of a pop socket, stand and wallet!

The classic PopSocket is a great way to hold on to your phone - and it’s always been a great multi-function device as both a grip and something of a stand, particularly in “landscape” orientation as you might be when watching videos.
THIS handy accessory connects easily to your MagSafe compatible device (it also includes a stick on magnetic ring, so it can be used with devices that don’t natively support MagSafe as well) and functions not only as a PopSocket, but adds a bunch of new functionality as well. In addition to the classic functionality of enhancing your grip on your phone and serving as a stand in landscape mode, this new version adds a handy wallet and also a “kickstand” functionality as well, both of which work really well!
The wallet component can hold about three “cards” of some sort - depending on thickness of course. For me, it easily holds my ID and two credit cards, which is generally just about what I need. The cards are well-protected, but easily accessed (there’s a small fabric bit on the bottom that you push on with a finger to pop out all the cards easily) and it’s easy to load as well. The stand basically kicks out the entire wallet bit as a kickstand which makes the phone nice and stable in portrait orientation (which has always been a weakness of the PopSocket). Of course if you want landscape orientation, you can use the PopSocket itself.
And all this functionality is added while only adding a minimum of weight and thickness to your phone - it still all fits easily in your pocket. The accessory is well made as well and should stand up to quite a bit of use. So if you could use a great combination of a grip, stand and wallet to add to your phone (and easily remove too when you want), give this PopSockets accessory a look today!

Handy, but not for bulkier phones/cases.

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
PopSockets have always been tricky for me because while I can't deny how handy they are, I never really liked the bulk they added to phones. I started getting a lot more interested once they started making magnetic ones, but still ultimately decided it made more sense to opt for a more practical accessory like a clip on wallet. So when they released this, the only real excuse I had left not to try it was that my phone did not natively support magnetic accessories (though its case does.) Turns out they even thought of that - there's an adapter ring included in the package.
So after a week or so of finally using one of the most popular phone accessories everyone else got five years ago... I've decided that I'm unlikely to make it an everyday carry. But I can at least understand the appeal.
There is a lot to recommend here. All the materials feel high quality (particularly the kickstand hinge.) The magnetic ring sticks remarkably hard to your phone/case (though it should definitely be noted that grip strength is significantly improved for adapter rings that use magnets rather than the metal plate they provide.) The wallet holds up to three cards very well while still letting them out when you need. Some thicker cards with more pronounced embossing did scrape on their way in, but as that's a common problem with this wallet design I don't think it's something that should be seen as a dealbreaker. And the pop socket really is one of the most ergonomic options for holding your phone at any angle. Your pinky will thank you for having one. Paired with my work phone, it's a fantastic upgrade and a great spot to store my office ID and keycard.
The week has also taught me, however, that it is not a great pairing with my personal phone. My foldable device with its chunky protective case is already pretty bulky, and adding this accessory to it really pushed it to a point that it's becoming impractical to stuff it into my pocket. Additionally I learned that my phone doesn't always play well with magnetic accessories, as every time this thing jiggled while I was holing it or setting up the kickstand it tripped the magnetic sensors that are used to detect if it's folded or not which would switch off the external screen. And, unfortunately, the kickstand really doesn't work that great trying to prop it up in an unfolded state. So if you are considering one of these, I would say that you should be looking just as hard at your current phone as you are the accessory. If you also carry around a plastic grip in your pocket, you may want to opt for something that does a bit less.

A Must Have GRIP for Any Phone
|
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
If you have a magsafe phone, this is a must-have product. Now the obvious thing is it will make your phone quite a bit thicker, 0.5” thinker. With the plunger out, it is 1.25” thinker. You must be fine with a thicker phone that may no longer fit in some pockets, but that is the price you must pay.
Mounting:
It is tight enough that it will not fall off your phone with normal use, but easy enough to remove if you need to. When mounting it, the magnets line it up perfectly so you can’t misalign it. You just place the device on the back, so it lines up with the lines on the phone. You can’t make a mistake.
Grip:
There is a plunger that pulls out about 0.75”. It allows you to more easily hold the phone. Instead of gripping the sides of your phone, you hold it by the small plunger. This is way more ergonomic and easier to hold your phone with. It pulls out very easily and quickly when you get a call. I can honestly say that this makes a huge difference when you must hold your phone when on a call.
Stand:
This also pulls out at an angle that allows you to stand up your phone horizontally or vertically. You can change the angle of the stand which allows you to change the angle of the stand in the vertical position. You cannot change the angle in the horizontal position, and it is really at an almost complete 90-degree angle which feels more precarious. The stand works fine in the vertical position, but not really in the horizontal position. The whole stand feels like an afterthought.
Card Holder:
It has a credit card holder that they claim holds three cards. You slide the cards into it through the top, and there is a material on the bottom that you push which pushes all the cards out of the holder. This is all or nothing, meaning that pushing the cards out pushes all of them at once. The fit is fine for one card, a little tight for two cards, and very difficult to get in three cards. While it is possible to get three cards into the holder, it doesn’t fit well; it is too tight. I will be using it for my debit and credit card with no problems other than the tight fit. The cards can’t accidentally fall out.
So, this is excellent for gripping your phone, a good card holder with a realistic capacity of two cards, and the stand is ok, particularly in the vertical position. If that is what you’re are looking for, this fits the bill.

MagSafe wallet with incredible magnet strength
|
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I’d never used a PopSockets product before, but I’m always on the lookout for well-designed MagSafe wallets—especially ones that add extra functionality like a built-in kickstand. This PopSockets MagSafe wallet with kick-out stand turned out to be a really solid option.
First off, the wallet itself is impressively slim. It’s one of the thinnest MagSafe wallets I’ve used. The PopSocket on the front does add a bit of thickness, but it collapses down nicely so it doesn’t feel bulky in your pocket. The overall build quality feels premium and durable.
The standout feature for me is the magnet strength. This thing locks onto the phone incredibly well—honestly one of the strongest MagSafe connections I’ve experienced. Whether you’re using it with a MagSafe case or directly on the phone, it stays firmly in place and doesn’t feel like it’s going anywhere.
Capacity-wise, it comfortably holds 2–3 cards. You can squeeze in four if needed, but they’ll be pretty snug, and five cards is pushing it enough that the wallet starts to bend. Thankfully, PopSockets included a small push-out notch on the bottom, which makes sliding your cards up quick and easy.
The kickstand feature is another highlight. You can simply fold the wallet open and prop the phone up in either portrait or landscape, while the MagSafe ring remains securely attached to the device. It’s great for watching videos, FaceTime calls, or just keeping your phone upright on a desk.
Another nice touch is that it includes a MagSafe ring adapter, so you can still use the wallet with phones or cases that aren’t natively MagSafe.
The only feature I wish it had is Apple’s Find My support. Adding Find My compatibility would make it nearly perfect, especially for something that holds your cards.
Overall, if you’re already in the PopSockets ecosystem—or you want a very slim MagSafe wallet with strong magnets and a useful kickstand—this is a great option

PopSockets with Portrait

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
PopSockets are one of those accessories that many people consider essential kit for their phone. For those folks, it’s put on a case and then a PopSocket so they can hold their phone more comfortably and have a kickstand of sorts for landscape mode in a pinch. Over the years, new functionality has been added from the first PopSockets, including MagSafe compatibility and a wallet. One limitation of a PopSocket has been its utility as a kickstand, particularly in portrait mode. PopSockets has heard this feedback and now is offering PopSocket accessories with a hinged ring to allow for more flexibility. Does it work for the wallet? Time to find out.
In the box is…well, a PopSocket MagSafe wallet with the new kick out hinge. Slap it on your phone and you are ready to go. The magnetic connection to the case I have on my iPhone 17 Pro is solid and I don’t feel like it is going to come off unless I intend it to. The wallet itself can hold 3 or so cards comfortably and the hinge and ring seem to add little to no additional thickness over the previous MagSafe PopWallet.
The big change is the hinge. You can now flip out the entire wallet as a flexible stand, and the ring rotates as well so you can rotate the wallet between landscape and portrait. In practice, it works really well, although when rotating the wallet to landscape it slightly collides with the lip on my case that protects the camera plateau, but it flexes around it without much issue. Overall build quality is good, with a nice metal hinge between the wallet and the magnet ring.
Overall, if you like to use a Popsocket and want an all-in one package that includes space for an on-the-go wallet with room for a couple cards and an ID and the flexibility to have a kickstand at any angle, this is the gadget you’ve been looking for.

Mixed feelings

The wallet sleeve is really well designed. It is textured on the inside to hold the cards you put in it securely. By itself, the wallet sleeve does not add much in the lines of thickness to your phone.
If you don't have a ring in your case, this comes with a ring you can attach to your case to allow the magnetic connection.
The wallet back has the magnetic ring that also has a hinge that rotates the wallet out to give a very sturdy A frame stand.
The stand makes the pop socket almost unneeded. Yes the socket provides a nice handle in the back of the phone, but it is not needed to use for a stand. The socket makes enough thickness to almost double the thickness of most phones.
While the namesake is based off the socket itself. The wallet is the real selling point here. If you could remove the socket, the MagSafe wallet could sell itself. A redesign that would allow you to remove the socket from the wallet, or use the socket without the wallet, would make a lot of sense. Just adding a finger loop on the back of the wallet would be a better design than the socket design.
The pop socket is really an unwanted addition to the thickness of your phone. However, the MagSafe attached wallet sleeve is a really nice addition. I am torn as to wether I like this or not. It is so thick, but not needing to take my entire wallet is a definite plus.

Great magnify wallet grip

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I’ve always used popsockets because it makes it easier to hold my phone in the hand. I’ve been loving MagSafe ones which I use on my iPhones and Android phones as well. Just requires a case with a lot of Android phones. No need to glue it to your case or phone. This is a MagSafe compatible pop socket in Black. It also has space for 3 cards inside the compartment. It also kicks out so you can use it as a kickstand in vertical or horizontal. You can twist it around for that feature which is great. You can leave it on the table to watch movies or use it prop your phone up for video calls or whatever you want. I did give it one star because I do find since it has space for cards it’s thicker which makes it slightly uncomfortable to hold your phone if you’re holding it for a long time. Otherwise it works great as advertised. I fit a debit card, and two transit cards in it with no issue. You use the elastic thing in the bottom to push the cards out which is a great feature as well. Besides the heavier weight this makes it’s minimal and a great accessory for your phone

I’ve been a longtime fan of PopSocket wallets, so I was excited to try this updated version. I mounted it on my phone as soon as I got it, and the biggest difference right away is the kick out stand. I always liked PopSockets for landscape mode when watching videos, but this one being able to prop the phone upright in portrait mode has honestly been a game changer for me. I use my phone constantly while working, and having it stand up vertically makes it so much easier to check emails, messages, and notifications without picking it up every few minutes. It feels sturdy and secure when extended, and the grip itself is just as solid as the classic versions.
It holds three cards comfortably, which is perfect for my ID and a couple of essentials. When I first put my cards in, it was a little tight, but that is expected and it does loosen up slightly with use while still feeling secure. Nothing feels flimsy or cheap. Overall, this feels like a true upgrade from the original wallet version. If you already like PopSocket wallets, this one just makes them better.

I am pleasantly surprised by this pop socket. It has so many features I didn’t know I needed.
I love the actual socket, which helps me to grip my phone better. Now I feel like I can’t live without it.
The wallet/card sleeve is another plus. I use it for my gift cards, because I usually forget about them in my actual wallet. I also put other cards in when I don’t want to carry my purse or wallet.
My favorite feature is the little kick stand that pops in and out as needed. I absolutely love this. I no longer need to carry around my phone stand. This solves the problem.
All in all, this is a great 3 in one gadget. Perfect for on the go. It connects magnetically to the back of my iPhone. It’s a light weight, so it does not add bulk to my phone. I have a battery charger case on my phone and it attaches right to it. No need to remove the case, just snap and go. No complaints here.
I highly recommend this handy little device. It’s the best tool that I didn’t know I needed and wonder how I did without it lol. I love it!!

This is my first foray into the Popsocket world. I've seen many of them in the wild but really didn't see the point. I've been trying to downsize my wallet and in pocket stuff and thought this might fit the bill in aiding that effort.
The positives:
- It attaches quickly to any MagSafe phone but don't fret if you don't have that feature because they include a self-adhesive ring to attach to the back of your phone.
- It easily flips out to provide a stable kickstand in either portrait or landscape orientation
- the Popsocket, when extended, allows you to grip your phone between your fingers as you old it in your hand
- it conveniently holds three credit cards (or similar sized cards) in the sleeve with easy removal due to the elastic webbing at the bottom of the sleeve.
What I don't like:
- I have MagSafe dash mounted phone holders which I have to remove the Popsocket whenever I'm in the car, so loss of convenience.
- I have several aftermarket MagSafe phone chargers, and again, I have to remove the Popsocket when I put it on the chargers
- The phone doesn't sit flat while face up. Well... actually it does but not very well
While I love the convenience of the card holder and phone kickstand I really don't like having to constantly remove the Popsocket due to phone holders and chargers I currently use. There may be other chargers and holders that allow for the Popsocket but even with that I need to have the kickstand out to use them, and if table top or dash close may not allow even that.
So, for me I am going to pass this item along to a family member that might be able to better utilize it's convenience.
