For me what would make the anker setup perfect, or possibly the popsocket setup, is if there were a second set of magnets on the outside so I can mount the iPhone to any metallic surface like gym equipment.

I’ve used both, the popgrip first because I had a regular pop socket for a long time and it’s just too bulky. It kept spinning off and the actual pop socket would fall off all the time (ever since they made them interchangeable). The 610 is what I’ve been using to this day until I switched, it’s slimmer and I like the way it spins so you can really adjust to the perfect grip. The only downside is that 1, it does leave scratch marks after a while of spinning it and I think the worst part is that the ring itself becomes loose. When swiveling out the ring to use it in the beginning it was very sturdy and kept my phone up in any position when way watching videos etc. Now though, I can damn near flick it out with one finger no problem and doesn’t hold my phone up unless I open it all the way. I need a hybrid of these somehow lol

good review. I've used both and the Anker does feel better but with a much worse magnet and the ring goes from being difficult and stiff to engage, to loose after a couple of months (they have good customer service and willl replace but it gets tedious) . 

The popgrip has a fantastic hold so is much more secure, but the edges of the plastic are sharp and do makes indentations on the finger it's resting on so it's a bit less comfortable (esp with the larger Iphones). The other weird quirk is that it sometimes attaches at a slight angle if not careful so you need to put it on straight but that's a minor issue. In fact the popgrip has the best hold of any magnet I've tried (I went through 5 different branded grips) so it's a no-brainer to stick with it if want to minimise risk of the phone dropping off. The price of these things is shocking though at £30 in the UK.

Have you found any pop sockets or like that are MagSafe and you can leave on the phone when charging?

[joebrandon]

Great review I was debating between the both to

[susiekidd]

I bought both. They’re exactly as you describe. Both are very strong (I use a MagSafe case over my 13promax), I like having both, but the ring will dislodge easier than the popsocket will especially if you bump it at a certain angle.

Much more of a natural feeling/hold if the rings would just keep the pivot point in the center, like on spigen’s ring

What none of these youtubers are telling anyone is that if you have small hands, the pop socket is always. It separates your fingers and gives you aches and pains. Not for people with small hands. I stopped using it after a month of aches and pains

I bought the Anker ring as soon as I got my Spigen magsafe clear case. I do love it…BUT…it has left scratch marks, though very subtle, around my magnet ring on my case.

I love popsockets!
Plus…. Now they have a charger that wirelessly charges your phone with popsocket on!!

[beamboy]

Can you please tell which one is more comfortable to hold

[sirm]

Can I use the MagSafe wireless charger with anker grip ?

Pop socket is garbage. I’ve bought two pop replacement pieces in the last 6 months ($10 each) because over time they get weak and won’t stay up when using them to prop your phone up landscape mode. This is an essential part of what I use it for. That’s already $50 down the drain and I need to buy another pop replacement part. Disappointing, going to give the Anker a try

I have the anker and love the way it works. Was a pop socket user in past. Do you have any knowledge of MagSafe accessories that you can put a pop socket on? My daughter hates the way the MagSafe ones take up so much room on phone. I was looking at metisinno magnetic base. Then put old style pop socket on top. Thoughts?

[DUGU]

Are you able to kickstand your iPhone 13 pro max with the pop socket? Cause mine keeps falling

[TxMisty]

Do they work on galaxy note 20 ultra 🤔

Don't buy the anker grip, it scratched my case heavily because when dust or debris caught in the magnet side of the anker and you try to move it it will scratch up.
