Popsockets is launching a new version of its Magsafe handle that can be used to support a vertically phone to scroll Tiktok or video calls. The handle and stand of Kick-Out Popsocket are lower than a thickener millimeter than the current range of Magsafe Popgripips, according to the founder of the company, David Barnett, but has a hinge so that the pop-up handle can now bend and double as a support stand.
The handle and the Kick-Out stand are available from today via the online store of popsckets for $ 39.99 in color that include black, twilight, putty and latte. It is also available on the website and Best Buy's retail stores which offer two exclusive color options: French navy and silver, both with a brilliant metal finish. If these colors do not work for you, because with the previous iterations of the popsockts, the foldable handle on the new kick can be removed with twist and replaced by alternatives in different colors or designs.
It is compatible with iPhones and cases that support Apple's Magsafe functionality, as well as Android devices and accessories that support the magnetic power profile of Qi2 standards. For older devices without wireless load, or those that use too thick protective cases for Magsafe to operate effectively, an included adhesive adapter makes the handle and stand compatible with almost all smartphones.
The new Popsocket handle is thicker than competitor's products such as the Ohsnap Snap 4 and it must be completely deleted if you want to use a wireless charger. But the kick is more comfortable to hold than the Snap 4, can be personalized and offers more features.
Although the handle and the boots stand are the first modern Version of the popsckets that can be used to support a phone vertically, it is technically not the very First of all. After having glued a few buttons to the back of his phone so that he can wrap and store his wired headphones, Barnett continued to design and Crowdfund successfully an iPhone 4 case With two of the accordion-style pop-up handles that Popsckets are still present today. It could be used to store headphones, but also support an iPhone horizontally or vertically.
Wireless headphones like Apple AirPods finally made the observation of the design of the original Popsockts, but it was not the end of the product. “One of my friends calls me the luckiest man in the world because the phones have become my invention,” explains Barnett. “I invented popsockts to solve the problem of the tangle of the helmet, and it turns out that they have served as great grip.”
Popcockets finally simplified the design of its products while consumers adopt them as a safer way to keep their phones which continue to become larger and more and more heavy, with one hand. To date, the company has sold more than 285 million handles, and although their success may seem a lucky accident, the latest version brings a useful improvement that Popsckets has been working to improve for several years. “Our products are all designed to bring joy to the daily life of the phone by eliminating the points of pain. I think it reaches the brand, ”explains Barnett.
