I recommend using Popsocket's Popgrip Magsafe product. Since it's collapsable, and interchangeable grips. Plus there are a bunch of popgrip compatible accessories. Personally I use the Popgrip Magsafe wallet

You can find them as low as $14 on ebay

Thanks, I like popsockets bc they can collapse, but they way overpriced! Pretty sure your buying a generic or fake popcoscket, if its only costing you $14 on ebay.

Overpriced? LMAO

Popsockets are $10 and can be found cheaper sometimes. Pretty damn cheap unless you want some fancier ones. I've had mine for several years and it's still works perfectly. Also good luck with the generic ones as they aren't made as well and will likely fall apart. Is that worth a few bucks savings when your phone cracks?

I agree also that pop socket is the way to go especially because of their accessories. Not to mention their large choices of designs. I have their mount in both my cars which works great.

These don't collapse. So I just pull it off when I'm not using it? Interesting design but I'll give it a try for the price.

i had a terrible experience the magnet is not as strong as you would expect so my phone flew out of the magnet and slammed on the concrete and thankfully i had a tempered glass which cracked but nothing happened to the phone !!! i would rather get the popsocket and i know its permanent and can't switch it but for me its worth it

I don't recommend magsafe pop sockets because I don't trust any magnet to keep my $1000 phone secure. If it can be removed fairly easily, it's not strong enough. The stick-on ones are secure - they use a stretchy type of adhesive that even can be reused. Look anywhere, the basic no frills pop sockets are $10. Like I said they go up from there if you want the enamel, spinning ones, or Disney- owned ones ( star wars, etc..)

I went to Target and found a pop socket on clearance for $3 so you might want to sift through them there too. There are also some designs that are on sale on Popsocket's website for less but you pay shipping so it would only be worth it if you bought a couple or more.

Always astounds me how people can be so gullible as to believe a flimsy glass sticker saved their phone screen.

Why are you quoting me? I didn't say anything about a glass sticker. However, yes, a screen protector can reduce the chances your screen will crack when it falls. It's also really a matter of luck of how it hits the ground and what the ground is made up of. I always use a screen protector, if nothing else it reduces the chance of getting scratches especially if it falls face down and in such a way that it slides across the pavement. Those rocky-type pavements are the worst, they will most certainly scratch the hell out of your phone.

I'm sure it does - until that one time it doesn't. No matter what, it's not as secure as a stick-on and I put a case and screen protector on all my phones. Not risking such an expensive and let's face it - vital part of our everyday lives.

No, I don't. I know it's not recommended, but I like being on my phone when I get into bed so i have a longer charging cable. Can't do that with wireless charger. If I'm charging my phone during the day then that means my battery is getting low and why would i want to use the slowest form of charging? Eventually the tech will improve and catch up to wire charging and at that point cables will be basically obsolete. Until then, it's only wired for me.

Gotcha, i understand your reasoning but I love the wireless and magsafe charging. Not having to plug it in is the added benefit for me. I can use a magsafe mount in the car and charge without worrying about wires everywhere.

That "grip" doesn't seem very pocketable whether on the phone or not. Collapsible is the bare minimum way to go.

I bought a magnet mount on Amazon for $8 that might as well be glued to the phone it holds so strong [Orikgher Magnetic Disk Base https://a.co/d/3DkLZCW]. Then onto that I mounted an all-metal foldable ring of my choice. Tried a Pop-Socket first, they fall off easily and stick out too far, and are not comfortable to my fingers for gripping.
