What is PopSocket? 6 reasons why you should buy PopSocket

Have you seen strange round objects appear on the back of someone's phone? Most likely, right? That is a PopSocket. Currently, this is an extremely hot smartphone accessory, especially for young people.

But what is PopSocket? And more importantly, can PopSockets be removable? The following article will help you dig deeper and answer all those tough questions.

What is PopSocket?

PopSocket is a plastic circle that you attach to a flat phone (or tile) with glue. You can drag PopSocket up 2 steps. That way, you can pinch your finger between the phone and one end of PopSocket, allowing for a more comfortable and tidy grip.

Can PopSocket be reused?

If having a slight bulge on the back of the phone is bothering you, don't worry. PopSockets is easy to remove, paste or reposition at any time.

You may have noticed that PopSockets has two parts: Stand (sticky disk) and PopTop (design part). Although PopTop is easy to replace when you get bored, removing the sole will be a bit more difficult.

To completely remove the part, make sure the PopSocket is flattened all the way down, then peel it slowly away from the case. If you have any problems when removing PopSocket, floss or credit card slide under the base to lift and separate it from the adhesive.

Remember that the adhesive gel may dry over time. If the glue feels dry, just rinse it off with warm water and let it dry naturally, for more than 10 minutes.

How to use PopSocket

You may think that PopSocket has only one task, but they do have a lot of uses. So, what is PopSockets used for? Overall, they make it much easier to do simple things with a smartphone. The following tips and tricks will help you better understand how to use PopSocket.

1. Help you hold the phone more firmly

PopSocket mainly works as an additional handle, especially useful for large smartphones. If you often drop your phone or find it difficult to hold a large phone comfortably, PopSocket will help fix those problems.

For example, if you own a Samsung Galaxy Note 9, sometimes you will struggle to use the phone with one hand. With PopSocket, you can hold your device with one hand and browse without a problem. The experience will be much more comfortable.

For those who often drop their phone, using PopSocket will help limit this somewhat. Plus, PopSocket gives you faster access to your phone.

2. Take perfect selfies

In addition to helping you hold your device harder, PopSocket is also great for taking selfies.

Why is that? Because PopSocket makes it easier to hold your phone in one hand, allowing you to access the shutter button easily. This accessory also brings more comfort when choosing a shooting angle.

3. Use PopSocket as a stand for the phone

If you need a smartphone or tablet stand when watching videos or playing games, PopSocket will meet that need for you. If you want to use PopSocket as a stand, it's best to attach two to your phone or tablet (especially with a tablet). However, a single PopSocket can still play its role.

With a PopSocket, simply pull up 2 times and tilt the device horizontally. This PopSocket works best when attached to the middle of the phone, otherwise it will fall.

For larger devices, such as tablets, it is best to use two PopSockets, then place them at the top and bottom. This way, you can easily place your tablet on the table.

You can also use the PopSockets universal stand to hang PopSocket on any vertical surface.

4. Used to wrap the headset neatly

Not everyone wants to use Bluetooth headsets, you might still want to take advantage of the headphone jack on your phone.

But headphones have long wires and are easily tangled. Fortunately, PopSockets can solve this annoying problem.

To do this, attach 2 PopSocket, 1 at the top and 1 at the bottom of the phone. You can use this setting to wrap your wired headphones around PopSocket, helping the cord to tangle when not in use. This might not look very nice, but it's easier than untangling the tangled wires every time you take them out of your pocket.

5. Customize PopSocket

The only way to create custom PopSocket is through the PopSocket website (see link: https://www.popsockets.com/create-your-own?lang=en_US ). From here, you can either upload images from your device or import something from Instagram. Then you can choose the color for the parts of PopSocket.

This self-designed PopSocket costs about $ 15 (VND 345,000). At this reasonable price, you can add a bit of character to your device. Unfortunately, this service is not available for Vietnamese customers at the moment, but you can ask someone you know abroad to help you.

6. Search for cheap PopSocket

If you don't want to spend extra money to customize PopSocket, you can always find a suitable product on Amazon or eBay for a cheaper price. PopSocket usually only about $ 10 (230,000 VND), while the metal version falls in the $ 15 range.

While PopSocket may seem like a silly accessory at first, there are really great ways to use it. It takes some time getting used to the PopSocket-attached phone, but after a while, it becomes an essential accessory. You will find it difficult to go back to using your phone or tablet without PopSocket.

Better yet, you can easily attach your phone to the car with PopSocket and the included pylons.

Wish you find a product like that!
