In order for the OhSnap! Grip to be magnetic, it must be made of metal, and part of it is. This is also why the new Pixel 5 has a metal back, but has a hole cut out around the wireless charging hardware (I bet you didn’t know that!).

That’s why most phones with wireless charging are made of plastic or glass instead of metal. For those of you unfamiliar, you can’t wirelessly charge through metal. Well, it was the exciting product until it failed to deliver on the promise I cared about most: wireless charging. The exciting product here is the OhSnap! Grip.
OHSNAP 3 TRIAL
My frustrations over a few days of trial and error has left me wanting my money back, but the company is completely unresponsive. And after owning both of these products, I really wanted to love them. These are bold promises that got me excited. The OhSnap! wireless charger promises 15W of wireless charging power that magnetically snaps into the OhSnap! Grip to offer a seamless charging experience. It rotates, has an elastic slot for your finger, snaps to form a kickstand, is magnetic, and still works with wireless chargers.

The Grip is a 3mm thin circle you stick to the back of your phone. I wasn’t that interested in their wireless charger, but I opted for it anyway so I could see how well they lived up to the promises. When I saw the OhSnap! phone grip and it’s promises, I was genuinely excited. Anyone that knows me personally or has followed me for a long time would know I love technology and getting my hands on what’s new.
