MageSafe Ideal ring

2023-11-10 00:00

I remember a bunch of people used to have these on their phone way back in the day. Probably in the iPhone 7 and 8 days, before Popsocket became the main game in town.

If you don’t know, they’re kind of like a Popsocket, except it is like a ring you can flip out, twist around etc.

I recently bought one. Partly to test it out, and to have something to use as a sling if the attachment that came with the iPhone sling starts to fail me.

There are things I like more about this design, and there are things that I prefer with Popsockets. They are both the same kind of thing, with some minor differences.

I prefer Popsockets as a general don’t have to grab your phone kind of thingy, and their accessories like car mounts etc are amazing. But I really like the ideal ring for some uses. Like when I want something really compact or attaching it to a hook.

Will most likely continue to have both available, since there isn’t really any drawback in a MagSafe world.
