I'm going to give it a try thanks to your review! I was an early adoper who's been using Oh Snap grips since the very first one they launched on Kickstarter (the long pill-shaped one that actually sucked despite their slogan). I've been using their 2nd gen grips for years now even after they discontinued them and changed the design. That design has been perfect for me in function. Using it as a grip is the priority feature for me and I love how I can slip my finger in with one hand and continue to use the phone with one hand seamlessly. And I love how it holds onto your finger so you don't even have to keep it gripped - it's really secure! I never have fear walking in a crowded area with my phone in my hand or taking a photo over a ledge or anything because of the way it stays attached to just one finger. When I saw the current design change, I bought up extra sets of the gen 2 because I could tell the 3 was not going to suit my needs. This new design though seems like it might. I may come back to update after I get to use it and compare.

Update: Here's the Battery Charge Benchmark app that I built, as promised. play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jsyntax.batterychargebenchmark (Android) I've been benchmarking Qi charging with and without the Luxe 4, and the results so far show that the accessory does impact charging efficiency by generating more heat. I will release a future video that fully reports on this. TLDR: you may want to reconsider this accessory if Qi (wireless) charging and long-term battery health are essential to you. Personally, I plan not to use Qi charging, so it doesn't have as much impact.

I’ve had the same issues. I had my snap 3 pro replaced a few months after I received it for free with the warranty. My replacement is now starting to crack down the middle so I went back to there website to see if I was eligible for another replacement and they sent me a code to get the Luxe 4 for no charge at all! The customer support is awesome and they make everything super easy.

Love this review. $47 CAD is sooo hefty considering I paid $9.99 for my pop socket, which functions perfectly fine except for the fact that I can’t charge wirelessly. So I have to take my case off every time I get in my car (every day!). I appreciate knowing about the clicking volume because I use my pop socket when I am scrolling while rocking my baby to sleep and the loud click could def wake him up. I also hold my phone by the popsocket a lot while also holding bags, a water bottle, and a toddler all at once. I like the idea of just sticking a finger through the centre.

I’ve had mine for three weeks and I’m in construction. With the three- which loved- it scratched in days. The plastic center on the 4 has zero scratches. I’m not sure what they did but the finish is better. Still looks brand new. Also the aluminum seems to actually keep the phone cooler while charging. I haven’t seen any downside from charging. The grip is far more comfortable and long usage is much more using. The heat so far when qi charging has not been an issue for me

It's wildly unsafe with magsafe charging. I've already reached out to Oh Snap about this. I ran a test on temps and in just 20 minutes of magsafe charging, my charger temps at 160 degrees F, hotter than I can hold safely. I used it for 12 hours and took it off. I'm waiting to hear back from them on this, but I absolutely won't be using it anymore. I'm less concerned about battery degradation and more concerned it's going to physically burn someone.

I’m currently using a different brand on my iPhone. That also has a metal magnetic ring. It also gets very hot with wireless charging. But it’s detachable. So I take it off to charge wirelessly.

When I used it with my luxe it stuck to my wallet and peeled off my phone. Then I tried it with my car mount. It pulled the magnets in my car mount out of their housing. They sent me new adhesive but it didn't work. Going back to my pro 3.
