Total downgrade from last version

The new grip was an aggravation from the start. The magnet was weaker so it was difficult to properly mount my phone on any QI charger. It wouldn’t just snap into the correct alignment, you had to move it slowly back and forth and hope that you find the right placement. When I could get it to stick to the QI charger in my car, sometimes the grip would stay on the QI Charger and I would walk away without my grip. After many days of frustration I went back to the prior version and it has solved my issues. The new grip was a waste of money. I bought the new grip thinking it would keep the magnet strength while losing the adhesive so I could remove the grip when I wanted to. Even though I have a mag safe phone case, the new grip doesn’t work well.
I love Snap Grip 4, and I was super excited for Snap Grip 5. I am not disappointed. I think that there is room for stronger magnets. That is my only complaint.Oh boo hoo, without adhesive my grip sticks to the back of my stove instead of my phone, and I can't stick my phone onto the frame of my desk. These are very incredibly minor... I don't even want to call them issues because they are barely even inconveniences.I notice that the ring is a bit thicker than before, that bodes well for durability.I also really like the slightly grippy stuff on the bottom of the middle part, that helps combat unwanted rotation.All considered, a very good advancement for Snap Grip's lineup, especially with the return of a nice dark blue.
Did not use the finger strap heavily in the short time I had it, but now it won't collapse back down. Had to hold it tight for it to stay down, now doesn't work. Not sure if it's my phone or charger but wireless charging did not work with it on, always had to remove. The stand was my favorite part. Overall disappointed that it didn't last long.
I like all the features for holding/ propping my phone but I also quite enjoy fidgeting with it separate from the phone. 😆 They did well with the slim profile too- that’s what grabbed my attention in their ads. I detest bulky grips and this actually helps the new iPhone sit flatter, so kudus to the design team!
