BEST comparable video I've found on youtube. From a mom's point of view, you hit ALL the points I needed AND gave a hack AND a look at it in a jean pocket. Thanks for your thorough video, you helped me for sure!!
Hi Jenny, you have really made my day with your kind comment. Very happy that this video helped you. So which have you decided to get? 😀
Literally the ONLY comparison for moms that I’ve found - thanks! Ordered a ring holder. 😊
Just had to read your comments to find out the type of ring holder. I have never had a holder on the back, and I think this just might be the one for me. Thanks!
I love the ring holder. Perfect angling for videos 😄
Thanks for commenting. Happy shopping 🛍️ ☺️
What a wonderful, succinct and comprehensive video. Thank you so much - now I know what to do!
Oh what wonderful feedback. Thanks 😊
So which one will you be going with?
Just watched your video. So, I have a similar problem where I would like the I option to mount the popsocket grip to either a popsocket mount or to a magnet mount. My husband has the magnet mount in his car and I have the popsocket mount in my car so I need the flexibility to switch. I can get it to works if I put a circular metal plate inside the head of a standard or original popsocket, but now I don't have the option to swap poptops. How can I open the very top of my swappable popstop so that I can put the metal disk inside and be able to use either car mount? I can't seem to pull it apart. Please advise.
Wonderful video ❤ thank u! I've had like 4 different rings by now (3 broke on their own and 1 I broke myself) and was wondering if a pop socket would be better. For now I'm staying with the ring for a better support on my hands. 😊
Great video! So informative, I appreciate it and feel like I can make a better decision on which to get now! Thanks! :)
So great to hear. Would love to know which one you decided to go with 😀
Great comparison. Exactly what I was looking as I’m trying to decide if I want to go to a ring. I’ve only had pop sockets. Thanks for the information.
Most welcome. Glad it helped. So what did you settle on? 😄
This was a great video! Thank you for the hack! Made my decision perfectly easy!
Glad you found this helpful. Sorry it took so long for me to respond. So which did you go with?
This was great! I have the popsocket and just bought the ring with magnet. The socket did not stand up well that is why I got the ring... Now we do need to be able to remove it. Good idea with the ring on top! very good thinking!!
Aw thanks. That’s the way I’ve been using it for over a year now ☺️
@@MamaBanana My pop socket fell off.. Now I only have the ring. Oh well. I need some good tape for these gaugets..
I’m popsockets 4 life! I collect them and I’m obsessed with them!
I love them too. I have the wallets & the lip balms. Wish they had a ring combo one. That would be amazing ! 😊
EXCELLENT comparison video! New subscribe. Thank you for your content!
Thank you so much for your kind comment & support. Very much appreciated ☺️
I've never had a ring holder or a pop socket. And as much as I'd like a pop socket, I see that the ring holder is best for me - thank you for the video!
I’m delighted the video helped ☺️
Love the hack!!!!!
Yeay, thanks. I use this hack & love having the best of both worlds 😄
Excellent video!!!!
Thank you so much for the kind comment. Have you made the decision on which suits you best? A phone ring or PopSocket?
Great video
Does this work with silicone phone cases that are textured? If so send link or name of products ? Please help
Hi Louise,
Thanks for watching. Unfortunately I don’t believe any of these stick on accessories work with silicone cases 😞
I just bought a ring and it works surprisingly well on my big 6.5" phone, but its not ideal. My fingers are too thin for the ring and of course the phone wobbles and feels kind of loose when holding it though still much easier to reach all corners now. Is this a common thing? I'm thinking a popsocket may be better?
Hey, is it difficult to remove ring stand holder? Does it scratches the back of the phone? Or the pop socket one? Which one is easy to remove?
The pop socket is much easier to remove. The ring will depend where you are buying from, but generally if you pull hard enough it will come off, shouldn’t leave scratches, just glue residue. Glue residue can be removed with oil like a cotton pad soaked in olive oil. That can then be removed with a soapy cloth.
I think it will depend on where you got your ring from. Mine is nice & secure, doesn’t wobble. I love both the ring & Popsocket, but both have different pros & cons, hence y I use both to get the best of both worlds 😊
@@MamaBanana thanks allot.
Have you decided which phone grip you are going to buy or will you be trying my hack to get the best of both? Let me know in the comments here.
Thanks for watching :)
I tried both and the ring got on my nerves!!! Going back to pop socket. Ring also tore the color off of my phone when removing it. The ring hurts my fingers with prolonged use because I have a heavy phone
Great review! I just cannot stand the thickness of those pop sockets, so I’ll stick with a ring holder. It is unfortunate that we can’t use wireless charging without taking the case off because of the ring. I would think the manufacturers could use a material for the ring that would allow wireless charging. I just hang the ring on a small adhesive hook in my car so I don’t need the magnet. Although your magnet holder does look like it would hold a phone more securely and not flip around like mine does sometimes. Thanks!
Omg it’s shocking that a detachable phone ring has not been created.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment 😊
You said you would put a link for a video below if you're having trouble removing a pop socket (4:07), which I am, but I don't see the link.
Hi,
I’m not sure why changes in the description aren’t showing up. But here is the video 😊
Remove Popsocket to reposition & how to twist off Popsocket top to swap | Quick & Easy
czcams.com/video/0FlLOASr-Gc/video.html
hello!! that's a very useful video and exactly what I was looking for!!
i have a question though, i know PopSockets are able to be removed, cleaned and then sticked to another phone
is it the same case with phone rings? can you unstick them and stick them somewhere else or are they one use?
Thanks for watching.
The phone rings usually attach on with 3M type stickers which often break apart when ripped off a phone case. They are not generally reusable, unless if you scrape off the thick sticker residue & replace with another sticky pad tape. Hope that makes sense.
@@MamaBanana gotcha, tysm!!
You’re very welcome. Hope you get sorted 😄
Great review
Awww thanks so much for your kind comment. Did you decide one which one to go with? 🤔😄
Not yet but thanks for sharing the cool features between the two.
@2glowalways no bother. Thanks ☺️
Before I got to the end, I thought ‘why not just do both?!’
I have the pop socket and I find that it triggers some carpel tunnel issues when I hold it up if I’m laying on my back.
Hehe it quite thick using both, but definitely my preferred way 😀
I find same with the PS when using upside down for a long time, so I do prefer having the 2 together so I can use whichever & switch between.
Are you using the 2 together also?
i prefere pop socket but ring has one advantage like you can hold it with any single finger i guess. I didn't use any of two.. going to buy that's why I'm here
I’ve gone a bit Popsocket mad. It’s just so much fun. I’ve the Popsocket Wallet+ which I highly recommend & the PopSocket Burts Bee 🐝 Lip Balm which is ridiculously big, but I still love it 😀
Thanks for watching. Please do subscribe to support & for more content like this.
Make sure to get the swappable Popsocket, so much handier if you have a wireless charger 🔌
Hey mama! What's brand's name of your ring grip?
Hi,
Mine is SyncWire. I just checked my Amazon orders there. I got mine in February last year & it’s only started to weaken last month. So when I pull the ring out to use as a kickstand, it’s only recently that the ring won’t stay standing. Think that’s pretty good considering I use it frequently throughout the day to prop my phone up at an angle 😄
Let me know what you think of it when you get yours 😄
Syncwire Cell Phone Ring Holder... www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07Y1XH52Z?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
thank you for the information. it's unavailable in amazon when i check, i'll look for it in other online shop.
Where did you get the ring from pop socket? I want one, but couldn't find it.. also, I watched your other video and tried to remove it. It did came off and I could but it on again, but it's ripped now. I don't blame you! I blame the company in some way..
I got a ring grip & stuck it on top of my PopSocket. I wish PS did make a ring grip. Let me know if you try this 😄
I know this video is kind of old now, but in case anyone sees this and is considering getting the Pop Socket car mount - if you have a big phone, I'd avoid it like the plague. It would not stick to my dash properly. Every 5 mins, I'd be driving and my phone would fall in between my feet. I tried it several times and still couldn't get it to work... It could have just been the material that my dash is made from, but I won't be buying another!
Thanks for sharing. That’s so disappointing, especially for the high price!
i definitely like popsocket more, but im getting a ring bc its cheaper on amazon lol
Price is an important factor for sure! A phone ring is so functional. Are you using any phone grip at the moment?
Same, I just bought the ring too haha
I find the phone ring more functional. Love that I can angle it to watch videos 😁
@@MamaBanana ohh, thanks
Now I feel my phone ring is worth it :)
It’s the handiest feature! I watch a lot of videos 😁
just bought a popsocket today to replace my ring holder which i had for over 5 yrs, i would mostly use it as a stand more than hand grip
Hope you enjoy the PopSocket. I find it both fun & practical to use. Very satisfying to popping it in & out 😄
@@MamaBanana yeh my ring holder all of a sudden, the ring became loose, it was unusable
Aww that’s frustrating. The PopSocket is a great alternative. Very fun fidget ☺️
@@MamaBanana are all pop socket top removeable?, tried to remove mine as how u explain it, but it can't
@jimjam_the_wong_and_only1942 they generally are. But off brand ones are not. Also I’ve seen other similar comments, so seems like they may have a small product line where the tops are not removable, which is very confusing.
I’m actually going to get in touch with them now to enquire. I’ll respond here as soon as I hear back.
Happy new year 🥳
The tape is called nano tape. Leaving this comment here incase you need to apply a new tape.
I LOVE Nano tape. I use it all around the house. Didn't know I could get them this thin. Thanks a mill. Will look into it :)
@@MamaBanana I stuck a piece to my current ring grip and it works great. I could reposition it as well. I was thinking of getting a pop socket too. Great comparison video!
I need my ring grip to be removable. I will definitely try the nano tape. Thanks so
Much for sharing. I’ll be uploading a video on the Popsocket wallet. Super handy in general, but esp so for moms. Would love for you to subscribe if you haven’t already 😊
Good to know 👌
Are you from Dublin or Ireland you have really nice accent 😃
Spot on! Be even more impressed if you could guess north or south of the Liffey 😁
@@MamaBanana 50/50 chance but guessing north side based on how you say through 🤔😂
Right again. Time to buy the lotto 😄
Phone ring is very difficult to use.❌❌
Does this mean you are a Popsocket fan? I know I am :)
How about straps?
Do you like a wrist strap attached to the phone?
@@MamaBanana havent tried it. Just saw an ad for Ringke Straps
They look cool. Very low profile which is great.
Have you decided which one you will try?
@@MamaBanana yup, Ringke buckle band strap. Ordered today. Might be here in 2 to 3 weeks. Its from Korea
Oh yeay. The wait always makes it more fun. Would love to know your thoughts on it when you get it 😃
Beautiful eyes, *subs*
Thanks for the sub 🙈😄
My pop holder charges on a wireless charger, no need to remove any part of the pop holder, Apple no need to spend loads on the super duper Apple rip off pop holders. Apple uses better glue, ffs.
That sounds perfect. I’m on the market for such a product, can you please share a product link? Thanks so much ☺️
Its your husbands phone so doesn't matter if it falls 🙄😄
Why is the video quality so poor? How can you make a video in 2020 with the highest quality being 360p? You have an iphone you could have used that to film and gotten better quality than the camera you used from 2008.
Sorry about the quality of the video.
I was pregnant, exhausted & I messed up. When I uploaded the video, it automatically set at low quality & I didn’t manually change it. After uploading, I had to delete the video to make space on the laptop. I’ve since realised my error & have corrected for newer videos & save my working videos to a cloud. Live & learn.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
What's important is that she relayed the message she needed and wanted to. It doesn't matter what quality her video is or was.
