This needed a lot more testing. The adhesive doesn't stay stuck, even on the vinyl pad made for phones or cases that don't stick well. If you use their magnetic charger, the heat generated by charging warms the adhesive then peels the grip right off the phone. More than once, the weight of the phone alone was enough to separate them. Also, this new grip style is significantly harder to open up one handed than the V2 model. Very disappointing.
The adhesive on the grip and the metal ring aren't too great. I followed installation instructions and the metal ring came loose from my S23 ultra. What I ended up doing instead is using another company's ring with significantly better adhesive and then using the grip on top of that. I did remove the adhesive from the grip and rotation on the grip is significantly more difficult as it doesn't spin freely anymore.. however the grip and metal ring from a different brand hold well. Overall for the price, pretty disappointing experience and needing another brands metal ring to make this work.
While using my magnetic car mount, it keeps getting pulled off the back of my phone case. One of the 'legs' also broke off. I can still use it but it's broken. The kickstand falls quite often (prior to it being broken).
This is my 3rd oh snap. I like the product which is why i have had 3. But for the cost of it and shipping it will likely be my last. Then to top it off I had to settle for black which I didn’t love, and the very next week more colors got released. Which I liked way better. But due to cost I didn’t want to buy another.
I love these newer designed snap grips. I had the snap 3 and was very impressed at how well this grip worked. I've had several standard pop sockets but was never impressed by these as they were very bulky and because of my work was hard to have my phone in my pocket at times and they would come off all the time when putting my phone in my pocket. With the snap grip I don't have that issue. What I like about the new snap grip luxe is not only the design and practically of the new snap but also the look of these. The magnetic capabilities is great, the ability of using your finger positions is really nice as well as the way you can position your phone. Definitely a must have for your phone.
