Ohsnap Grips are great

This would be the third Ohsnap grip I’ve ordered. This one I bought for my son’s phone. The ones that I have bought in the past all have the sticky back but this one has the magnetic back which I think is a great improvement to the design because it allows you to switch it to different cases along with being able to use their other accessories.
It’s fine. The magnets are great, it holds super tight. But it’s a little tough to open and use, but once you get it open it’s solid. I’m glad it has charge-through, and it does work, but it’s quite slow. MagSafe direct will charge from 80-100% in like 10 minutes but with this on it takes more than 20. Outside of that I’m fairly happy with it.
I’ve had my grip 5 for a few weeks & 3 magnets have fallen out of the back. Also a piece of the plastic snapped off of it I broke where one of the little bungee things are connected under the metal circle. I was looking for a grip that can magnet to my car mount which this does beautifully, but if it wasn’t for that feature I’d still be using popsockets! Not impressed! Bummer! I wanted to love it
There are elements I like about this grip - and other elements that are disappointing. I love how thin it is and grip is pretty descent feeling. The drawback is that it definitely does not work as a stand to set your phone up in front of t of you. And the magnet has a strong grip to attach to the phone. But it’s not strong enough to stick my phone to a fridge or another metal surface. This may be because I have the large max size iPhone. Given the negatives - this grip feels overpriced for what you get.
I've owned every Snap Grip version since the original Kickstarter campaign and this is probably the second-worst iteration. It doesn't stay firmly mounted on grips, and falls off the phone far too easily. Bring back the adhesive and stronger rear-facing magnets, or at least make that an option in a second version.It's also still not compatible with most third-party wireless chargers, and doesn't work reliably with the official Ohsnap wireless charger with a case on.
I like the look of it very much. And I like that it is a magnet and not something I stick to my phone. I felt it was a bit small for my hands. I understand they are constrained but the size of the magnetic and I’ve never used a similar device, so maybe my hands are just too big. But it does look nice and is secure and performs as described.
I requested & received Oh Snap for a Christmas gift. So far so good. It works as advertised & I've enjoyed using it. I also like that it's magnetic & will stick to a metal item if needed.
