In with the old, out with the new!

Yes, I wrote that correctly. I was excited for the "no adhesive" necessary for the new and "improved" Snap grip 5. Too bad the magnetism for the "stick on anything attracted to magnets" side was sacrificed in lieu of allowing the snap grip to seemingly work without the adhesive. It makes sense to make one side MUCH weaker so the other side APPEARS to be stronger. I've had more than a couple of mishaps where this new version FAILED to stay magnetized to my fridge. I've NEVER had to worry with the snap grip 4, let alone watch my phone tumble straight to the floor! After the 3rd time, I made the switch back! Sorry, I guess this just made me see what I truly prioritized and needed. Needless
After using pop sockets for many years, I found they are still a superior product. It is easy to grab my phone, get my fingers behind the popsocket at any angle 369 degrees. The ohsnap product requires that it is aligned in a specific angle to fork your fingers around a rigid core. In doing so, it flipped and moved too easily making it more difficult to grab it quickly. I’ve returned mine and will stay with pop socket .
I've been a fan ever since the original and the 5 is better than ever. The magnet is strong enough that I don't have to worry about it coming off but I'm still able to remove it if needed. Great gifts.
Love the ow profile design! The bad...multiple times I put in my pocket the snap would catch on the pocket and fall off. Happened a couple times and now it’s lost in the world somewhere.
The Magnets are not as strong as the Snap Grip 3-4I asked for an older version and was sent a new one. Not exactly what I wanted. Also I liked the adhesive ones because they dont come off when I pull my phone off my car mount
Looks great but function isn't much better than the snap 4. 4

The magnet isn't as strong on the snap 5. The snap 4 had a stronger magnet. No wireless charging through the snap ring...The snap 5 still doesn't want to stay closed after I've had my fingers behind the ring. I'm sad to say because I like the idea, but oh snap is a swing and a big miss for me.
I put a MagSafe pop-socket on my phone years ago and never looked back. When it broke recently, I bought the Oh Snap after seeing a million ads on Instagram. It broke within two weeks of getting it... came unglued and was unusable. Luckily, the company made it right and replaced it. Four stars because it broke, but other than that I like it. Can’t go back to pop-socket now... it feels to thick between my fingers. I just wish the magnetic closure was a little stronger... it doesn’t always close all the way.
Was looking for a way to mount my phone in my new truck. This had the grip of a p*p s*cket but not the bulk. The mag safe sticking power is great, and even charges my Android phone. Very happy so far.
