PopSockets Phone Grip for MagSafe with Kickstand - Strong Magnetic

Our review of the PopSockets Phone Grip for MagSafe with Kickstand finds it best suited to people who want a compact, magnetic grip that doubles as a kickstand and works with both MagSafe cases and non-MagSafe phones via an included adapter. The single biggest reason to buy is the built-in magnets that are stronger than standard MagSafe, giving a notably secure attachment to MagSafe-compatible cases while still allowing wireless charging after sliding the top off. It is a practical everyday grip that collapses flat and adds a playful Disney Kawaii Goofy design for those who want personality with function.

Key Features

• MagSafe built-in: The integrated magnets securely attach to iPhone 12 and newer MagSafe cases so the grip snaps on and off easily for quick use.
• Adapter ring included: The Magnetic Adapter Ring lets Android, Samsung, Google Pixel and legacy iPhone devices use magnetic accessories when their cases are compatible.
• Wireless charging compatible: Remove the magnetic round PopSocket to place the phone on a wireless charging pad without removing the adapter ring on MagSafe devices.
• Kickstand function: The PopGrip expands to prop a phone up for hands-free viewing and collapses flat when not needed.
• PopSockets ecosystem: The magnetic grip works with other PopSockets MagSafe wallets, mounts and chargers for added modularity.
• Stronger magnet: PopSockets states its magnets are about 40% stronger than standard Apple-compliant MagSafe, improving on-case stability.

Who It's For

The grip is ideal for iPhone 12 and newer users who already use MagSafe cases and want a stronger magnetic hold plus a quick kickstand for video and one-handed use. It also suits Android and older phone owners who use compatible rigid cases and want to add magnetic functionality via the included adapter ring.

Shoppers who rely on silicone, heavily textured, or anti-fingerprint coated cases should look elsewhere, since the adapter ring is not compatible with those finishes. Buyers seeking a heavily ruggedized or waterproof grip may also prefer a different accessory built specifically for extreme conditions.
