Great same form factor, just needs some more refinement

Coming from a Snap 3 to a Snap 5, here are my pain points.(1) My main concern is that the exterior magnets are much weaker, to the point where I lose the exterior magnet feature, that I greatly appreciated and loved from my Snap 3.(2) The extension from the base to the two-finger hold feels tighter. It's not a deal breaker, more of a personal preference.Otherwise, I still experience the same great durability and category-leading design. The MagSafe connection to your device is also very strong, so there's no need to worry about it falling off or detaching.If OhSnap decides to create a revised version, I'd be happy to buy another one. Keep up the great work, guys—I'm still a fan of the brand and understand that this is just part of the process. I look forward to following the company's journey.
I’ve been using the snap4 for months now with no issue. Seen the snap 5 came out and jumped right on board. I’ve only had my snap 5 a few weeks, and it’s not going well. It doesn’t magnetize to things as well as the last. I use it a lot; at work, in the kitchen, etc. It falls off from under my computer more often than the last ever did, slides down my fridge, and doesn’t always hold in place on many surfaces my old one had no issue with. I also bought a sticky reusable wall mount for my last gen grip, and it doesn’t fit this one, so I can’t even use it any longer...Now the big downgrade was this one being without a sticker. While I always thought that’s what I’d want, it doesn’t actually go by as well. For one, it has come off my phone way too easily sometimes, usually it holds well, but nothing like a stuck on grip 4 will get you. As of today, I no longer have the Snap Grip 5, as it went missing yesterday. It fell right off my phone, I’m assuming while I was putting my phone into my pocket. Unfortunately, I either have to cough up the money or go back to popsocket... I really liked the last gen, and I don’t mind this one, but it’s definitely not better than the last imo.
The video ads make this thing look like it’s gonna rock my world and stand up and be easy to use through my fingers as a grip. But it’s not it’s flimsy has no support and really is a disappointing purchase.
Yes they are expensive. But they last. And the company had been great about dealing with any issues (1st gen issues). Now the snap grips are sturdier and magnets are stronger. Thank you!!
I would give this 5 stars if the rose option matched the Rose gold iPhone 16 pro I have. It is defiantly a light pink and not as dark as I thought It would be.
