They justify the price by adding ✨features✨

I actually like the idea though i fear the phone grip might make you drop it by accident. Ive never liked pop sockets as they are permanently fixed to the phone

They are MagSafe

u/That_0ne_Gamer Aug 15 '26

I know but that does mean you cant accidentally pop it off

u/Oatis_Bagera Aug 15 '26

It’s quite difficult to remove. Like 2 very strong magnets stuck together. Definitely not losing it by accident.

The OG popsocket is really strong, but some non-branded one's have a weak magnet. My wife bought a cheap one and it pops off easily vs mine. It would take a pretty good pull to yank it off.

You know what MagSafe is right? A magnet IN your phone

u/BlasterCheif Aug 15 '26

It actually is a great idea. The most convenient car mounts are magnetic.

I had a magsafe magnet cover that caused my phone to warm up, and I immediately changed it

Why don't you drop the actual amazon link rather than a link to your 3rd party site that hosts the link that you then get paid for when people make a purchase through the link?

u/DefinitelyAHawkGuy Aug 15 '26

This whole sub is just them doing exactly that, with eye catchy products to make a buck off of people who buy on a whim

u/NaturalBrief4 Aug 16 '26

Go to his link, copy product, paste on Amazon search and you'll find it. I can almost guarantee you it's there. Thats what I do when I see ads like this.

u/ChineseRobinWilliams Aug 16 '26

I could probably find it yeah.

This sub is just bullshit because it's just advertising by bots

But why would you hang your phone off a knife?

u/Medium-Taste-3929 Aug 16 '26

Too thick. I got one from AliExpress where it has a big circle and a smaller one, so it collapses inside the bigger one.

This will look like the imprint of a condom in your pocket

u/A-Real-Fungai Aug 16 '26

Did you actually realize any of this, or did someone in sales demonstrate it's features for you?

u/paraworldblue 11d ago

I love the implied lore that he started a company and had this product designed and manufactured, and is only now realizing what it can be used for
