PopSockets Reviews - What Is It?

WARNING: DO NOT USE PopSockets Until You Read This Review!
Is it a Scam? Does It Really Work?

PopSockets

PopSockets are small contraptions that "pop" onto the back of your device such as a phone or a tablet. It is made from plastic and includes three parts: a decorative disc, a flexible stem device. It is unclear why the item was called a "socket". It would be better to call it something like GripSuckers, even though it doesn't have quite the same ring to it. PopSocket is meant to provide you with more hold while you are using your phone or tablet, reducing the risk of smashing the screen. The item could be beneficial for those who like texting while working their way through a crowd while. It can be used when taking a selfie while standing on a slippery floor, or filming an angry protest. It can be used to prop your phone up while watching a video. You can actually stick two items on your phone to wrap your headphones around them. PopSockets have a good look and come in different colours and shapes that can be selected to match with your clothes or nails.

PopSockets are designed for people who don't want to break their phones by accidentally dropping them. The product is said to be used by such celebrities as Serena Williams, Gigi Hadid, Ryan Seacrest, Jared Leto, Kendall Jenner, and Michael Phelps. You may have probably noticed that phone cases are getting more extravagant and bigger with each year. More and more people choose bisilicon french fries, rubbery Totoro faces, and huge Stella McCartney lips. Probably, the predecessor to PopSockets is the smartphone hand grip, which the author noticed in the hands of New York's citizens. But the grip is not considered to be trendy. The fur bag charm can be its trend progenitor. PopSockets look cute, are stylish and practical, which gives them a definite edge in the race to be a new trend. Unfortunately, there is little information about the manufacturer of the product online. The official website is poorly made and provides few details on the item and the company behind it. Let us take a look at what real users are saying about their experience of using the unit.

Customer Reviews - Does PopSockets Really Work?

Many people are sure that PopSockets are just fidget spinners that will hardly become the next big trend. There is a number of reasons for their widespread popularity, including low price, popularity among celebrities, a funny name, and the fact that they come in different shapes and colours. Just like fidget spinners, these items are fun and can be repeated in different variations. It is high time to take a look at the customer reviews available on third-party websites. They carry a mixed character, which means that there are both positive and negative opinions. Many users are not satisfied with the quality of the product. Thus, one man writes that the item he received didn't hold its "stick". As a result, his daughter had to throw it away after just several days of using it.

Another customer calls everyone not to buy this product. This woman ordered her PopSocket but it arrived after three a half weeks. She also says that she ordered an all-black item but she got a purple one. It's not what she was waiting for. The item lasted only two days and lost its sticky ability! She would not recommend the product to anyone else and gives it one star. One more user considers the product to be not useful at all. He stuck it to his phone but in less than an hour it slid right off and wouldn't stick again. Fulfillment really sucks. Another guy ordered a pair of products but when the order arrived he found out that there was only one item in the package. The guy was very disappointed and called the company but they did not acknowledge that it was their fault and refused to send another item. By the way, shipment took about three weeks. Don't trust Popsockets.com. Many other customers confirm the fact that the product has a poor quality and does not even hold for a full week. That's nothing more than waste of money. It's high time to read some of the real users' reviews available online.

"Pop Sockets can be very dangerous. I used the item for one week and it caused sprained tendons in both of my hands which swelled up a lot. I had them splinted for a week and took prescription naproxen for fourteen days. That medication led to an ulcer so I can nothing now. I need serious treatment. I suffered for two months and lost my work. Beware of this thing!"

"I said no to PopSockets or any other products bought online. These items are not real. The comments left on ebay of the product are likely from the seller who simply uses fake accounts. They do the job only within the first week of use but then they stop sticking to the phone's surface. These items won't work with any of the accessories made for real Pop Sockets. All positive comments here are fake. If you don't believe me, buy it at your own risk. I would stay away from this product but that's too late."

"It took a long time for me to get Popsockets, but I expected more from this product. The sticker part is made from some very hard material. I have used it several times but after that I have been unable to stick it on the surface of my phone. How many times I tried but in vain. It seems to be a fake product, not the real PopSocket. It looks horrible and does not perform its functions. Don't waste your money on this fake product."

My Final Summary

PopSockets are becoming more and more popular but this popularity seems to be artificially created. The product is advertised by celebrities on its official website to make you think that famous people really use this sort of an item. In reality, they have been just paid for the advertisement. The practice shows that the product can be useful for most tablets, phones, and cases for just a few first days. Then the item loses its sticky ability and stops to perform its major task. So, the manufacturer's claims that PopSockets will "pop" whenever you need a stand, a grip, an earbud-management system, or just a toy are quite deceptive.

PopSockets make terrible phone stands and phone grips, according to the customer reviews left online. They can be effective for just seven days for phones, tablets and e-readers. If you need a really comfortable and secure holder, you are advised to look for another option available on the market. If you attach two items to your device you may get an earbud-management system. PopSockets are not a good option for enhancing the capabilities and grip of your phone. There are more secure grips for photos, calling, texting, and selfies. What is more important is that it does not allow your hands to relax while holding your phone securely. One customer reported that his hands have become almost unusable after using the product. The product is washable and repositionable; however, that's not enough to recommend it to usage. Because of many disadvantages PopSockets cannot be recommended to usage.

Where To Buy PopSockets In Stores?

You can go straight to the official PopSocket website to choose from a wide range of designs. The items can also be found on Ebay. The average cost of each item is between $10-15. The product is currently unavailable on Amazon. We don't know whether PopSockets will be back in stock and when.
