Great magsafe ring with unfortunately hard to remove adhesive
Got one of these for my Pixel 6a in an OtterBox Commuter case. I couldn't use the alignment tool because of the USB C cover on the case so I had to position it manually, which was oddly more difficult than I expected. After a week I ended up removing my first attempt because it wasn't quite in the right place for my grip, just a quarter inch too high, which really leads me to my one complaint about this otherwise great magsafe ring: the adhesive.It adheres extremely well to the rough texture on the back of the Commuter case, actually a bit too well. It was very difficult to pry up an edge on the ring, and my spudger ended up cutting into and smearing the adhesive around as I was working my way around the ring, leaving much of it on the case. I'm not sure what this material is but it's very sticky, breaks apart easily, and leaves a strange residue behind. An almost gum-like consistency. Some goo gone, rubbing alcohol, and elbow grease, and I was back in business, but man, what a pain.Swap that out with a nice 3M adhesive, something that tends to remove in a single piece, and can even be repositioned, and maybe include some or one replacement (even if it's a touch more expensive) and this thing would be perfect.Other than that, it's very thin and stylish, and it's rock solid with the magsafe accessories I've tried.I paired the ring up with the metal metisinno magnetic base and a popsocket, then the lamicall magsafe mount for my car. The latter fits right over the top of the popsocket and the magnets in the lamicall mount attract to the metal back of the metisinno base under it. I can leave everything as is when I move in/out of the car. It's the perfect setup for me, one I've been trying to find for years. At no point do I have any concerns about the strength of the magnetic connections between any of these. It takes real effort to separate them.Just triple check your placement of the ring, because you'll have a heck of a time removing it, and will not be able to reuse it after.Ver másVer menos
