Make any case MagSafe with the ESR HaloLock Universal Magnetic Ring

Where can I buy that MagSafe brown wallet?

[@thechristaft]

You can pick one up on Amazon here: amzn.to/3vydkhX

[@LadyKimberly1]

I need one to go inside the case. I bought a beautiful case for myself and for my Mom. Putting it on the outside would cover the design.

[@thechristaft]

Thanks. ESR ring worked perfectly on my Spigen thin fit case too! The newer ones come with slightly different packaging and alignment tool. I'm surprised you didn't use the alignment tool method.

Best ring ever!!! Really impressed by this item I bought

[@thechristaft]

[@cccdeadpoolxd920]

will it work with other phone which support wireless charging

[@thechristaft]

It will definitely make the phone connect to MagSafe accessories and should not interfere with wireless charging.

[@Emma-rb6gy]

The ring is easy to fit and looks good aesthetically. So slim its barely noticeable when holding the phone. When placed on the MagSafe charger/stand it holds the phone securely.

[@thechristaft]

Thanks Emma, totally agree!

[@Sofia-ps6qv]

Mine already arrived and as said thiss ESR universal ring is good for converting normal cases into magsafe ones.

[@lucymedeiros8720]

Thanks for posting about this. Wondering if it’s possible to install on the inside of the case. Sticky side against the inside of the case and it still work?

[@thechristaft]

So these are made of metal and not magnetic, they work best on the outside of the case so they come in direct contact with the magsafe accessory. Mophie makes a ring adapter that is magnetic. That might work on the inside.

[@dannigro8794]

@@thechristaft I had the same question. I have a Lohasic case that isn’t strong with MagSafe accessories but I don’t wanna put the ring on the outside for when I don’t have the accessories on I’d rather on the inside. Maybe mophie would work.

[@thechristaft]

@@dannigro8794 I have seen several mentions of applying the Mophie directly to your phone. In my experience, you are still going to have a weaker connection though a case with the ring on the inside, but it could work good enough for you.

[@wesleywamsley443]

I am using the morphine magnetic ring on the inside of a case. I had to Drexel out the inside to get the magnets as close to the edge as possible to be as strong as poosible

[@willperalta3276]

Essentially you can make any wireless charging phone Magsafe compatible. I made my wife’s iphone 11 Magsafe compatible by using the same technique as yours.

[@thechristaft]

That’s right, great way to add MagSafe. Thanks for watching!

[@Larry_left_a_comment]

Personally I think most of these rings are just metal, but the type of metal that magnets attract to. I'm not sure anyone needs magnetic rings at all. You just need a metal ring that magnets attract well to. The magnet is in the accessory - the charger, the stand, the pop socket etc. Correct me if I'm wrong but you don't have to search for a magnetic ring. You just have to find a ring that magnets are very attracted too. The ring has to be made of a very ferromagnetic material.

[@SWARBRIX]

I agree the ring on my case I bought is not magnetic at all

[@Rumeel12708]

By far this is the BEST magsafe conversion ring out right now, I have bought the Mophie version and similar small magnet styled rings and they bearly work! Although the ESR's are not magnets but a simple metal ring it works GREAT. I currently have it on a hybrid clear thin Spigen case on my Note 10+ and using Aukey's magsafe charger. Hover the phone over and it will pick up the charging pad! Waiting for the S22 Ultra to see if I get that or Pixel 6 Pro, but for sure will be adding the Halolock ring to it.

[@thechristaft]

Great comment! Thanks!

[@robinrai4973]

Is the mophie really worse? I saw a review and they said that the mophie is stronger than actual magsafe! Thanks

[@Dallasguy1972]

So this ring he attached with the adhesive is NOT a magnet at all? I’m looking for a magnet to attach to my case so I can attach my phone to gym equipment as I’m working out in the gym. This isn’t what I need to buy?

[@Rumeel12708]

@@Dallasguy1972 correct, this version is NOT A MAGNET, just a metal ring or a metal washer. you would have to get the magnet version (has small magnets in a ring form). You can see the small magnets in the picture when you go buy it!

Magsafe cases also have a ring inside the case itself for better conductivity to the charger. Not sure if my assumption is correct.

[@OkiDingo]

How did it hold up? They specifically said don’t put on a rubber case

[@thechristaft]

Holds up just fine on the spider thinfit, it's not exactly rubber, more of a soft plastic. The rings have a very strong glue, I haven't had any issues.

Is it normal for the magnetic sticker to get hot while charging?

[@thechristaft]

Good question, I haven’t found that, but I could see that during charging.

[@1sttobylopez]

Hey the problem I have is that this product is just a ring stamped from a piece of sheet metal. And it's sharp edges scratch up the glossy finish of my magnet charging phone holder in my car. So I'm just gonna tell you this

[@Mangop7q]

Can i put the ring underneath the clear case?

[@thechristaft]

It’s not advised, I unpack why in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4nXoWCvopegrtk

[@Anthony-fd8mh]

Can you stick the ring on the inside of the case instead of on the back of the case?

[@thechristaft]

It’s pretty thin, and technically would work if there is enough space. You would lose some magnetic strength because you are putting the case now between the ring and the MagSafe accessory.

[@Gameonslayer]

Is this a magnet? If yes, then how is the magnetic strength?

[@thechristaft]

So this one is actually not a magnet. It's metal so your MagSafe accessory can grab on to it. Mophie makes one that is actually magnetic. I have a video on that one as well.

[@OldAndGettingOlder]

No one ever shows the Android MagSafe cases and converted cases work on non-MagSafe chargers, and ESPECIALLY wireless chargers in automobiles (which none are MagSafe chargers).

Are these rings magnetic or plain steel?

[@bevrawsthorn3285]

Would this work the same attaching to the inside of the case?

[@thechristaft]

Possibly, but by placing the case between the ring and your phone, you are essentially weakening the hold.

[@skittlepuff]

Can you just put it directly on your phone ?

[@thechristaft]

Not conclusive, you can technically but that defeats the purpose of using a case.

Can I use this for my magnetic car phone holder ?

[@thechristaft]

Yes, I have had no problems with my MagSafe car phone holder and one of these.

[@coolsweatz]

Would it be possible to apply the magnetic strip to the inside of the case so it doesn’t show?

[@thechristaft]

It's pretty thing, so might fit, but the purpose of it is to provide a stronger connection with whatever magsafe device you are using, so putting it inside the case works against it because you now have the case between it and your magsafe accessory.

[@D0d_]

Would that work on a Samsung T7 SSD to attach to the back of a magsafe case (Spigen Rugged Armor 15 Pro Max) ?

[@RedDeath-qy3yq]

Does it include hand held cases?

[@thechristaft]

Not exactly sure of the question, but if it is a flat surface then yes.

[@kotgc7987]

I've had a magnet ring directly on the iPhone X backside for years and it worked great with charging, however the magnetic strength was too weak with the thin plastic case, to hold firmly onto the desk and car magnet holders. I've just bought a new iPhone and stuck the ring on the outside case, which holds much better. I just found your video though and I have the magnet gap at the top, as I thought this might stop the phone case slipping down with gravity...I'm curious now what the magnet gap is for, as yours has the gap at the bottom for some reason?

[@kjmmreid]

Is this product still working great for you?

[@thechristaft]

Yes, adhesion is great, still the best option for non MagSafe cases or non MagSafe phones that you want to be able to attach things like magnetic wallets, etc.

[@kjmmreid]

Awesome!! Thank you for the reply. I just ordered the Casetify and didn’t like the look of MagSafe with customization I put on the case.

[@itsyaboiroy5558]

Would this work on a galaxy note 10?

[@thechristaft]

I'm not as familiar with Samsung, if it is wireless charging compatible it should work. It will at least make it magnetic to connect to accessories.

[@azndoodle1]

could the metal ring be installed inside the phone case? Do you think it will still feel the magnetic attraction between the case and the magsafe charger?

[@thechristaft]

So it really needs to go on the outside of the case. I’m dropping a new video on this tomorrow, but basically, what I learned, is the ring itself is not magnetic, but works to create a stronger hold with the magnetic accessory just by being metallic, so it needs to be as close to that accessory as possible. Having it on the inside of the case would defeat that purpose. Thx!

[@azndoodle1]

@@thechristaft thanks for this discovery! I was always confused too. Some rings are magnetic, some rings are just metal. I wonder if it was a magnet instead perhaps it can sit inside the case as a conductor between the phone and the external magsafe charger.

[@MrNoseynate]

I have a case that is supposed to be MagSafe ,but I’m not too sure. I wonder if this will help to strengthen the magnet in my case

[@thechristaft]

At minimum it will add a stronger magnetic connection to your case.

[@KnightHawk1990]

Does it work if you apply it on the inside of a case and then try to use it with a MagSafe compatible accessory or a magnetic car mount?

[@thechristaft]

It is the intended to be used outside the case. It should work inside the case, but the connection could be a little weaker. I’m rolling a new video out this week to test different scenarios like that. I’ll share it with you once it’s live.

[@JJWYT]

can i put this inside a case?

Quick question can I put the magnets inside the phone case?

[@thechristaft]

It’s not good to do that, what I have since learned is they are not magnetic, but metallic, so by being in the outside of the case and coming into contact with your MagSafe accessory, they increase the magnetic hold.

Just a few questions, might sound stupid but just need them clarified 1. Does this work through the case? As in if I attached it inside instead of outside the case, would it still work reasonably well? 2. This is technically universal for any phone right? Like using it on an older Samsung (S9 series) and iPhone (X,11) would work just fine if attached on the phone and if a case was added on top?

[@thechristaft]

Great questions… It works best on the outside of the case. If you put it on the inside it will reduce the strength of the hold. Also, it doesn’t make your device wires less charging compatible of it isn’t already, it just makes your phone have a stronger magnetic hold for MagSafe accessories.

Olle, thanks for watching and the comment. You are correct that the magnetic ring is missing the alignment strip that normally sits below the ring. I haven’t noticed that being an issue with wallets or with the charger, haven’t tested it with a car mount though. Can the wallet for example rotate a little? Yes, it can, but I really haven’t noticed it as an issue until your comment. Thanks again!

@@thechristaft Thanks for your quick reaction! Good to know that it isn't that noticable unless pointed out. I suppose that, with some handywork, you could use a bit of a second ring to get something like the alignment magnets on the iphone 12...

There is a Spigen ring that has the alignment strip below the ring.

Thanks for the great video. It is very insightful. Do you know whether it sticks and work properly with these cases? Apple Smart Battery Case for iPhone 11 Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max Leather Case

Not sure on the battery case with the hump, but will work with the leather case, although you will have to commit to using it permanently as it may damage the case if you try to take it off. Thanks for watching!
