  • always appreciated this brand as phones keep getting bigger to help reach every edge - the Pop Grip slide is a great add-on for multiple size phones as it adjusts to the width and is easy to take on and off for non-magsafe phone.

  • Great products. I've purchased them as gifts and for myself. Their designs are versatile and I love that you could also customize. Easy to apply, whether you get the magnetic or the sticker ones, they both hold great.

  • I bought this because my iPhone 17 pro was too heavy to hold with one hand, and reaching the buttons was getting harder. The pop socket helps and my hand gets less tired, it’s honestly a must now. I’m thinking of getting one with a wallet.

  • I love my popsock so much. I have been using these for years and whenever I loose it or it falls off my phone I don’t know how to hold it. It’s the best one of the “phone” holders and I highly recommend them. Especially the new magnetic ones , they are so easy and literally just pop off. But they are very sturdy.

  • Works as promised. Case provides moderate amount of protection. The case has lasted two and a half years so far. I like the collaborations and the thermochromatic pop socket. I wish they continued to make the cases where you can slide the pop socket off.

  • I had one years and years ago and I really liked having it because I dropped my phone a lot less and was able to mount it on flat areas to either watch a video or follow instructions on a cooking video. Plus they stayed in place for a long time before wearing out.

  • I purchased the iPhone 15 Pro Case Compatible with MagSafe and would say it is a decent case, but it is a bit on the pricy side. You are defiantly paying for the brand name and while most of the time I am all about buying the name brand products, but when it comes to this case I don't know if it is worth it. Popsockets is not the most trendy brand for cases but they still charge about $40 which is comparable to several other more well known brands.

  • I have the Iphone Pro Max, work as a social media manager, so I am on my phone A LOT! I used to get hand cramps until I found Popsockets. Through every new phone & new phone case, I rebuy a popsocket. It makes picture-taking & phone scrolling so much more comfortable. The only bummer is that it catches when putting in a tight back pocket. I've noticed some cases dont stick as well to the Popsocket, so in extreme heat, the Popsocket has melted off the case.

  • I love this popsocket. I love the colors in it. I love easy it makes it to hold the phone. I've always just looked past these over the years but when I hand my phone to someone it's awkward and the screen might change. With this popsocket that doesn't happen. I have it attached to my phone. It folds really flat. It pops out twice. It gives you plenty of room to hold it. You can prop it up sideways like it says. I will always use a popsocket now.

  • Recently upgraded my IPhone and needed. a new case. The phone case I purchased had a magnetic circle on the back and came with a recommendation for a Pop Socket. I had never used one, but loved the idea. I got a Pop Socket and began using it occasionally. Liked the ease with which I could hold my phone. - Found that I forgot i had this connected to my phone. Still adjusting to using the pop socket.

  • the brand keep on improving in my opinion. i am an apple user, was first the magsafe is not too safe, but now with their latest magnet extra provided, the magsafe is so safe and secure.

  • I am a repeat buyer. I love PopSockets and can't comfortably hold my phone without one. Just upgraded to a MagSafe removable PopSocket, and am a huge fan. The only downside to having one is that it does make your phone harder to pull out of your pocket if you're wearing jeans.

  • The sleepy Bulbasaur popsocket is absolutely adorable and very comfortable in my hand.

  • I love using my PopSockets. It has helped keep the grip on my phone secure and prevents me from dropping my phone so much. The only issue is that the phone no longer lays flat when I set it down on a tabletop.

  • I use mine daily and it’s helpful—especially as a stand—but I’ve noticed the stickiness waning over time and had to re‑order due to a delivery mix-up. Of note, it also may hinder wireless charging...it does for me.

  • Pretty consistent! I've used popsocket for years, and the latest magnetic upgrade has been awesome! Still a lil pricey and requires some planning with new cases or phones, but I'm somehow still loyal!!

  • Popsockets are such a good, fun idea. They help you hold your phone a lot better. I’ve prevented myself from dropping it on my face a few times. You can also use it to prop your phone up. They come in really cool designs and you can design your own too. They last a long time. I’ve bought a few for myself and as gifts too. Fun and functional.

  • I have used PopSockets for several years. I love the vast variety of options in terms of style and function. The newer PopSockets having the magnetic option is very helpful. The quality of the product is also very high; I have never had one break.

  • I used to love these. They helped keep my hand from cramping when using my phone and come in so many colorful designs. However, I found another brand I like better (easier to change with and doesn't slide up as much). However, a lot of my friends still use, and love, PopSockets.

  • the pop socket came off my phone case while i was in the middle of a run and my phone went flying :( I also honestly don't think its the most comfortable way to hold my phone haha I just ended up liking it because I played with it constantly
