Was really looking forward to the Snap4. I ordered a new phone case with a smooth back to mount it to, just to be sure that it would stick well to a nice new clean surface. Twice already the new Snap4 has come off the phone case. I've pressed it back into place both times and it holds... until it doesn't. Unfortunately now I don't feel I can trust it. I won't feel good about holding my phone over the edge of anything, lest it drop off and leave me holding nothing but a nice new phone grip in my hand, without a phone attached.
I have loved ohsnap and have given high ratings till now.I have purchased one every time a new release is available.I liked the snap 4, I didn’t mind the adhesive because the magnet part was strong to attach to MagSafe and other metallic surfaces. The snap5 though is not as strong. Stronger to the phone yes so that you do not need an adhesive, but now it barely holds to my MagSafe charger in the office and car. In the office I cannot use it to adjusts angle of stand because it comes off to easily. While driving, when i hit a bump it will fall. I did not have this problem on the snap 4. I say bring back the stronger magnet on the back side of the snap, I don’t mind the adhesive part to a case.
Nice and thin design and the magnet strength is incredible!! This is the second one I've purchased and the car phone holder that goes with this is great as well!
Absolutely amazing product ! The grip on this thing reminds me of my father’s hand shake ! Best I’ve ever had ! And it’s so incredibly thin ! Stylish, enhance’s my iPhone. And the kickstand! It’s even better than the one on my Treck bike ! Thank you so much ...
I love the ergonomics of the Snap Grip 5. I opted for the Overexposed to match the aesthetic of my white iPhone 15 Pro. The color transfer is horrendous. The bright white out of the packaging is not a dull and dirty vibe :(
I have been using the Ohsnap grips since the Grip 3 and I absolutely love them. I love that this version is fully magnetic with no adhesive. The magnets are strong and allows me to place my phone on any magnetic surface The only thing keeping me from giving this grip a perfect score is that the soft touch coating is actually peeling on mine and I haven't had the grip for very longStill, I would absolutely recommend
Magnets not as strong and somehow came off my iPhone and lost it

I really like this design but the magnet is not as strong. It comes off easier as it doesn’t have adhesive anymore and can easily knocked off or does give a strong hold when attached to surfaces like the previous versions. I just dropped it somewhere and completely lost it now. Not sure when I’ll buy this again but I do like this brand.
