PopSockets Low-Pro Grip Has a Hyper-Slim Profile

The PopSockets Low-Pro Grip has been formally announced by the brand as the latest version of its signature smartphone holder accessory that's engineered to support ease of use, but also a slim profile.

The smartphone accessory builds on the originality of the first PopSocket, but sees it slimmed down dramatically to just 2.5mm when collapsed against the rear of the device. The grip will, however, pop out to reveal the perfect way to keep a hold on smartphones or angle up on a surface when taking calls or streaming videos.

The PopSockets Low-Pro Grip is being launched as an Apple Store exclusive in several color options for $39.99 and will receive a wider retail release starting July 29, 2026.
