Reviewer Buys $50 OhSnap Snap Grip Stand After Months of Testing

2 articles · Updated · The Verge · Aug 15

$50 OhSnap Snap Grip Stand won over a reviewer who had previously passed on the brand, prompting a personal purchase after months of daily use.
3.7mm thickness, a double-sided magnetic ring and a fast-deploy vertical stand made it useful enough to stay attached full-time, unlike earlier OhSnap grips the reviewer found overpriced or flawed.
The stand also improved on prior models with bare anodized metal instead of peeling coatings, while keeping a secure, versatile finger grip and some wireless-charging compatibility.
$17 rival Gornergrat Grat 5 costs far less, but the reviewer preferred OhSnap's firmer grip and anti-rotation design; remaining complaints were the price, one-handed opening and inability to use magnets and stand simultaneously.
