Sounds like the MagSafe PopSocket would be perfect for you! https://www.popsockets.com/en-us/more/magsafe

This was one of my three launch day purchases. I bought a case, a screen protecter, and a MagSafe pop grip before I even powered on my new phone.

I have the pop grip from them and it is great.

Also do you use it without a case?

I use it with the Apple leather case. I would destroy my phone without one.

Can you still use a wireless charging pad and charge your phone that way with this?

Nice find, but at $40 I'll have to pass.

Yes, a MagSafe one. Just for holding though, as a 13 pro user I find that the phone is top heavy and can’t use mine as a stand.

Can the phone still charge if I added one of these to the back?

If you use a lightning cable you can still charge with it on, but if you want to wirelessly charge you need to remove it first.

I’ve got the MagSafe popsocket on my 14pro max. The magnets are really strong without a case. But with a MagSafe case on you have to really pull the thing to get it off 😂

Can you answer a couple more questions? I reached out to the customer service and they weren’t very helpful. So you’re saying if you have zero case on, it will still be strong enough where you can use it to hold your phone while texting and things like that? Is it strong enough where you can slide it in and out of your pocket without the magnet falling off?

And I’m pretty sure you can’t wirelessly charge with it but if you know differently please tell me.

Absolutely with zero case on you can shake the device while just holding the popsocket it’s probably 8/10 magnetic strength, with a case on its 11/10 😂. You can’t wireless charge with it on but with it being magnets it super easy take on/off. I’ve no problem recommending it to anyone case or not, I play Pokémon go and it’s fine for everything

Hell yes. Thank you! Which one did you buy? Sounds like there are a few brands. What’s comfy? I just hate holding the phone for a long period of time and texting, I want support but want it to be slim.

I got the regular clear popsocket, they may look expensive but go for whichever design you’ll like use again. Cause you’ll be able to use it on any iPhone going forward. Rhinoshield do one now called gripmax which looks interesting. Let me know which your going for

I personally would not want to stick just anything to the back of my phone.

Not only could it be hard to remove or leave residue, while attached it may also interfere with thing like Apple Pay and/or wireless charging.

iPhone 12 and newer support Magsafe. This allows accessories to magnetically attach to the back of your phone. Including pop socket type attachments.

I would look at the new Belkin iPhone mount. It has a ring for holding your phone but can also be used to mount your iPhone to a MacBook so you can use the iPhone as your webcam.

I’m confused at why that says for mac notebooks? I don’t have a mac. I just want an easier way to hold my iPhone without a case.

And now that you say it, I do wirelessly charge my phone. So if I got this I could still use that feature?

I’m using the Popsocket wallet with MagSafe. Wallet stays in my pocket until I need to use the popsocket. Works for me since I don’t carry that many cards.

I got the anker magsafe ring thing.

Atlantic0ne OP t1_itr84nf wrote

Can you do the wireless charging still?

LyftedX t1_itr86vz wrote

Not with it attached no.

Atlantic0ne OP t1_itrbuz9 wrote

Is it easy enough to just pop off at night when I want to wirelessly charge it and then put it back on at daytime? That doesn’t sound too bad

Yeah it’s magsafe. It’s just a magnet.
