Does the Snap 4 Luxe Phone Grip Live up to the Advertising? Review of the pop socket alternative

[@jvallely_]

Personally I love mine. Never have used any sort of phone grip before and impulse bought it after a barrage of advertisements. I’ve got no regrets about it at all.

[@franky8450]

Have had mine for a while and I love it. Little finicky but not so bad that I wanna switch back to my pop socket. Tbh if this thing can actually live up to a million pops then I don’t see why I’ll ever switch back to my pop socket. This thing just does so much more and is way more comfy and fits my needs so well. Anyone complaining about the price is a little silly considering MagSafe pop sockets cost $30, this thing is only $10 more and definitely worth that price.

[@backyardflyer9914]

Had mine for a few months now. Really like it, never used a device like this before but definitely helps with larger phone. The pass through charging was always a little sketchy for me so I just removed the sticky adhesive and just pop it off when I MagSafe charge. The magnets are plenty strong enough that it has never come off when when using even without adhesive.

We all needed this review. Thank you Lon!

[@maxdeathlore]

Was very curious about this from the ads. Very nice + thorough overview! Thanks Lon!

[@PlayfullWithFire]

Thank you for reviewing this for both iPhone and android!

[@geomox4]

I use my lux 4 on a s24 ultra on an old flat cheap wireless charger every night and it charges just fine every time.

[@angellouisesings]

@geomox4 this is what I needed to know. Thank you!

[@angellouisesings]

This is what I needed to know. Thank you!

[@zedawing]

I have it. Incredible engineering. The only drawback is that MagSafe charging gets a bit warm

[@xjwigluszx]

Thanks… for now the sketchy QI charging is a deal breaker for me. At least at this cost anyway

[@EveryTongue]

Great video Lon. All marketers should study this advertisement.

[@mrmartywaring]

Thanks for the good review as usual!

[@mjnz]

Any discount codes out there? Zero chance I’ll pay full price. Also even Ohsnap states it wont charge with cases over 2.5 mm thick, which is not uncommon

[@chrisfrailey1493]

Wanted to really like it, but returned it today. Magnets just not strong enough. Every time I attached it to the car mount or the night stand it would come off the phone and stay with the stands.

[@Kressidia]

I have this issue as well

[@RuTube981]

Wish you stuck the android phone to the normal chi charger. Really wanted to see if it goes through.

[@constructiongeek4361]

Will not charge thru on my Samsung qi charging pads, keeps starting and stopping. I have to take it off to get it to charge, luckily the adhesive is easy to remove, and the magnet is strong. Their Snapcharger is garbage though, it got to 145 degree inside of 10 minutes charging, i don't feel safe using it.

[@mxl_31]

How did you get it to stay on android? It fails off my fold

[@bbgarnettTotallyNotABot]

Keep up the great work

[@zebulon4602]

Thanks, great review! (Also great name BTW! 😊)

[@asan1050]

Lon , Thank you for posting.

[@danielmac9524]

Do you know if the Ohsnap lux 4 works well when you iPhone has an OEM Apple MagSafe case? Thank you

[@DanielGuzman83]

My Pitaka case won't charge on all qi chargers. Only have luck with the cheapest anker Qi charger.

[@SylvainMenard]

Cool gadget, but not cheap! Thanks Lon.

[@michaelkirkman1899]

I had the previous version and I wanted to love it so much. But it kept breaking They replaced it once but I just don’t know if I want to try it again

[@TheOnlyDTM]

i returned my last one too... this one is much butter

[@not-AI]

​@@TheOnlyDTMno it's budduh

[@TylerStevens]

Why will no one show what happens when you put on an external battery pack? I assume it swivels all around and thats why there are no videos of it?

[@LonSeidman]

It won’t swivel it attaches to the metal ring that’s stationary

[@rahulkapoor4]

What's about charging an android phone with ohsnap on a Qi charger?

[@VastOceanCommuter]

Thanks for calling out the incompatibility with Qi chargers despite their advertisement claims. That's what I primarily use.

[@jameshovey8301]

I have a UAG Pathfinder case on my phone I'm wondering if this is compatible

[@not-AI]

no magnets it the Pathfinder

[@maestro256]

If I use it with magsafe battery pack, how much I will loose due to increased gap between battery back and iphone?

[@Manodragon]

It isn't available in Germany sadly

[@calebsw]

Does the pixel have the same issues charging on a normal wireless qi charger as the iphone did with this installed?

[@LonSeidman]

Yes

[@olmecST]

It seems very thin. Does the camera bump prevent from sticking to metal objects?

[@LonSeidman]

Surprisingly not, the dishwasher example I have in the video is a good example.

[@ccsapastor]

Ahh, didn’t want to use the adhesive on iPhone or case. Can it be used without adhesive?

[@LonSeidman]

It won’t hold on very well without it.. from what I can see the adhesive is on the magnets themselves so it’ll be very hard to remove

[@DanielGuzman83]

Do you have to use the adhesive? I just want a thin magsafe stand where I can attach other stuff but I also want to remove it.

[@LonSeidman]

Yes unfortunately but it’s really easy to take it off

[@Alrhmo]

@@LonSeidman How do you remove the adhesive from it?

[@mmafighter077]

It's this the black or blue version of the lux 4?

[@LonSeidman]

I think this is the blue one

[@bmiller949]

Great review. I was sad to see your Google pixel though 😢

[@asmith5093]

Do you have any experience with or know of anyone who has tried applying the Snap 4 to a magsafe phone case without using the adhesive and instead relying on just the magnetic strength between the case and the Snap 4?

[@LonSeidman]

The adhesive is built in so it’ll be hard not use it. But I can say the magnet is not strong enough to hold on reliably on its own

[@CasualPooper]

$40 😮

[@not-AI]

yeah plus tax and shipping 😂 more like $50

[@ifyouleavenow5960]

The adhesive sucks
