Versatile , Handy little gadget. I have to admit that the features are great, but what sold me was the sassy redhead showing how to use it In the advertisement online. Whoever does marketing should get a major bonus for coming up with that one.
The snap itself had trouble adhering to my phone case. There was a portion of my Pelican case that had very small dimples and it would not adhere to that spot and continued to fall off. I moved it to the smooth portion of the case and it has not had an issue with adhering. As far as the operation itself, I wish it was better for one handed operation. I can “pop” the snap with one hand, but the pop doesn’t open enough to get my fingers slid under it without using my other hand. I am a man with average hands, not overall large mits. I thought I would be able to use one hand. It also doesn’t help that the Snap can’t be positioned in the spot on my case I would like it, but I do not plan on purchasing a new phone case just to be able to move the Snap slightly. The kickstand feature is nice and it does stay in position for use. I also enjoy the 360 you can move the snap around in. The Snap seems brittle based off of construction but it has held up well to its use. The magnet feature does work and I can place my iPhone 13 on metal if I need to, but honestly it isn’t a feature I have used other than to test out. Overall for the price I expected more, but I also believe it is the best one handed “pop socket” out there unless I am missing a different product. I haven’t purchased any accessories but appreciate that they do have them.
First off...I REALLY REALLY like it....but I thought I would love it.
What I like: -Very very thin profile (thinnest I've found so far). -Magnet is surprisingly strong (stable and secured when connected to metal surfaces)...and with the nano adhesive it is stable and set in place. I have not seen it disconnect or move from my phone whenever I remove it from a metal surface surface. -It does allow for wireless charging with the oh snap in place (more on this later). This was the main reason I got the oh snap. -Tripod feature is stable -Using two finger grip it is comfortable and easy to control the phone
Things that are less than great (admittedly some MAY be due to user limitations): -Grabbing the phone one handed to open the grip and use (either one or two fingered) can be done...but requires more effort than with my previous grip. -Can be gripped one finger, but it "feels" like I'm damaging the grip's springs in the progress...hence I don't use it this way -Tripod function is useful, but it often does not snap into place on the first try. -The magnetic/wireless charging works...however, it is very picky. I had to try many different chargers and MagSafe batteries before finding ones that reliably worked with my phone and the oh snap grip. Even with those that work, the grip causes a lot more resistance, hence it will stop charging due to excessive heat. I have found alternatives that work...but options are limited. I almost returned the oh snap, as this was the main reason I bought the oh snap.
Things I haven't tried: -I haven't tried to re-use the nano adhesive (again...the current combination of magnets and nano adhesive is providing excellent grip so far)
Conclusion: - It took a few days ... but I'm happy I bought it
Snap 4 Lux allows me to.grip my phone securely when I am carrying it in my hand. I like that it is magnetic, as it can attach to the inside of a gym locker. It does prevent the use of some of my wireless chargers (especially in the car), but I switched to Android Auto and that is no longer an issue.
I wasted too much money on grips that don't work or don't charge, or you have to take on and off. I wanted one that could wirelessly charge without removing it, that had a pop socket style holder, that also had a kickstand and that wasn't bulky. This one meets those requirements and more. Very happy with my purchase.
