Magnets falling out

I’ve had my grip 5 for a few weeks & 3 magnets have fallen out of the back. Also a piece of the plastic snapped off of it I broke where one of the little bungee things are connected under the metal circle. I was looking for a grip that can magnet to my car mount which this does beautifully, but if it wasn’t for that feature I’d still be using popsockets! Not impressed! Bummer! I wanted to love it
There are elements I like about this grip - and other elements that are disappointing. I love how thin it is and grip is pretty descent feeling. The drawback is that it definitely does not work as a stand to set your phone up in front of t of you. And the magnet has a strong grip to attach to the phone. But it’s not strong enough to stick my phone to a fridge or another metal surface. This may be because I have the large max size iPhone. Given the negatives - this grip feels overpriced for what you get.
I've owned every Snap Grip version since the original Kickstarter campaign and this is probably the second-worst iteration. It doesn't stay firmly mounted on grips, and falls off the phone far too easily. Bring back the adhesive and stronger rear-facing magnets, or at least make that an option in a second version.It's also still not compatible with most third-party wireless chargers, and doesn't work reliably with the official Ohsnap wireless charger with a case on.
I like the look of it very much. And I like that it is a magnet and not something I stick to my phone. I felt it was a bit small for my hands. I understand they are constrained but the size of the magnetic and I’ve never used a similar device, so maybe my hands are just too big. But it does look nice and is secure and performs as described.
I went to remove the grip from my case to put on a different case and it broke. I have a small plastic guitar Pic type tool I use to remove them, and the grip broke where the plastic strap mee the shelf. The strap didn't break, it broke where the strap meets the shelf. Has to be a manufacturing defect because it doesn't look like a weak spot. But for 40 dollars, I cannot risk it happening again
I requested & received Oh Snap for a Christmas gift. So far so good. It works as advertised & I've enjoyed using it. I also like that it's magnetic & will stick to a metal item if needed.
Very thin. Doesn't get caught on pocket like a pop-socket. One-finger mode is nice for pics. Kickstand nice for watching videos. Only issue thus far is that one of my wireless chargers doesn't charge my phone anymore, due I assume to added thickness of Snap Grip (specifically Yootech Wireless Charger Stand). Most wireless charges continue to work, in particular mag chargers.
I upgraded from the 4 to the 5 a few months back. After several close calls, today I finally lost it somewhere on my commute. The finish on the 5 is nice but not nice enough when it results in the grip coming unstuck regularly. Think I’ll stick with the adhesive from here on out.
