Are you a content creator who spends a great deal of their time recording selfie videos and stills on the phone? I’m sure you’re tired of juggling tripods and GorillaPods wherever you go, they’re such a pain to carry and setup. This is exactly why suction-cup-style phone accessories, which stick to the back of your phone (Android or iPhone, doesn’t matter) and with built-in suction cups on the reverse side, grip onto any flat surface, are selling like hot cakes on Amazon. This convenience lets you record and capture hands-free videos without the worry of your phone falling or tilting.
One of the most recognized accessories in this category is the Octobuddy silicone suction phone case, which attaches to the back of a smartphone with an adhesive and grips onto windows, walls, mirrors, or any other smooth surface for stable, hands-free videos and selfies. Now, to tap into this fanfare and present iPhone-based content creators and influencers with a MagsSafe-compatible option, PopSockets has launched Suck-Up Grip and Mount.
Designer: PopSockets
Released on the heels of the PopGrips and the phone cases, wallets, and mounts that have followed since, PopSockets’ Suck-Up Grip and Mount is a combo accessory that ropes in all the best of what the iPhone accessories maker has to offer. It is a soft silicone suction tool that sticks to surfaces so you can film hands-free, and on the hindside is that classic pop-up phone grip, which PopSockets is known for. It is “a versatile 3-in-1 solution that combines our signature grip and stand with strong suction mount technology,” PopSockets’ CEO Jiayu Lin says.
Designed to let you stick up the iPhone anywhere, anytime without harming the aesthetics of the phone. As it happens with other suction phone accessories that use adhesives to stick to the phone back, the Suck-Up Grip and Mount uses the genius of MagSafe to do that. “It empowers content creation on-the-go, has MagSafe snap-on convenience, and is a great addition to anyone’s phone wardrobe,” Lin adds. With its proposed ability, the accessory is becoming available starting July 30, through PopSockets’ own website.
Of course, the primary target for this suction tool are content creators and influencers who would rejoice the benefits of hands-free recording, but give in convenience of use and the possibility to mount or dismount at any time, it will have a broader appeal. You could easily find people mounting it to watch recipes while cooking or touch up makeup and hair before entering a party. For those who are interested in the numbers, PopSockets has ensured Suck-Up Grip and Mount can hold up to any smooth surface for up to 10 hours, without moving the mounted phone.
