I like the idea not to remove the grip when charging or putting it on a magbase stand. However, I gave it a 3 star because I have to remove it when using any other wireless charger, like my vehicle wireless charger. And it not because the camera bump, because when I remove the grip, the phone charges just fine.Another issue is that the phone gets way too warm with the grip on and using an apple wireless MagBase charger when compare charging it without the grip.
I love this thing. I now feel more confident holding my phone in my Arc case. I love how I have multiple finger options and I can turn it into a stand in the blink of an eye. I mean seriously, it’s the Swiss Army knife of grips. Plus it works well with my Torras wireless charger.
I think it looks good but after a few short weeks of use the zigzag pieces are already messing up and now it won’t even stay closed. It looks like it was just one of them that wouldn’t fold properly and I didn’t force it. I saw the problem and fixed it but I guess the damage was done already because it won’t stay closed. And for that much money, it’s very irritating to say the least.
I had the previous generation, stick on, type ohsnap. It has a way stronger magnetic mount to accessories than this current version. I kind of wonder if they reduced the strength rather than upped it so that it sticks more to the phone than it would to the accessory, making it appear to have stronger attachment to the phone.
Probably going to return it. Kickstand doesn’t work reliably. Finger grip feature best for small or medium fingers. My meaty digits barely (uncomfortably) fit, especially in single digit mode. Like the form factor in terms of thin & strong magnetic bond with case. Seems i have to take it off for magsafe charger to work but that might be operator error.
I have had a Snap Grip for years now and loved it. When my Snap Grip 4 broke (completely user error), I ordered the new Snap Grip 5. I'm so disappointed with the strength of magnet with this one. With the 4, I could place on the fridge, on the mirror, on my car, in the garage... and it never moved! The best part was that I could have it on my mirror (metal base/frame) when getting ready in the morning. The new one just slides off. It will stick to my fridge but you can just tell that the magnet is not as strong. Very disappointed.
The case I have for my iphone 17 pro is very slippery and I lost the grip within 2 days because it kept slipping off. I had another case I don't use as much that it held just fine but I prefer my slippery see through case. Sadly I will need to order a new one with adhesive.
