PopSockets Low-Pro MagSafe Grip vs UAG Magnetic Ring Stand

Buy the PopSockets Low-Pro if you want the thinnest grip that still works as a kickstand and you use a MagSafe or Qi2 case. It sits at 2.6 mm and 0.13 oz, so it barely changes how the phone feels in a pocket. The UAG Magnetic Ring Stand is the sturdier pick for heavy one-handed use: zinc casting, two all-metal hinges and a 360-degree ring give more grip positions and a firmer stand, but it is about eight times heavier and much thicker. Owners rate the PopSockets higher overall, though the UAG has far fewer ratings.

• Choose the PopSockets Low-Pro if you want a nearly flat MagSafe grip that disappears in your pocket and still flips out as a stand.
• Choose the UAG Magnetic Ring Stand if you want a metal ring grip with a rotating finger hold and a stand that holds firm at several angles.
