Buying gifts for people can sometimes be really difficult. There are always those who are really picky so you don’t want to buy them something with a lot of variation, for fear they might actually not like it. Even harder is deciding what to put in people’s stockings. If you’re looking for a really effective and useful gift for the busy traveler in your life, than this might be the answer you’ve been looking for.
This handy little device called PopSocket is not only affordable, but you’ll be thinking why the heck you hadn’t thought of it before. Essentially, you attach it to the back of one of your devices and it props it up at just the right angle so you don’t need to hold it when you’re watching or reading something.
If you have an iPad that you frequently use on a plane or on trains, etc., you’re probably pretty familiar with the irritating need to constantly hold it upright. This is annoying and can also be exhausting, but sometimes you just don’t want a case on your device. This is the perfect solution to that because you just put it on and take it off as you need it.
At only $10, this is a total bargain, and it comes in a really nice, sleek black and white marble color. However, if this isn’t up your alley, or the person you’re buying for, you can also choose from other designs and colors, including but not limited to moon, nebula and wave, all for the same price.
This device works for both landscape and portrait modes and you can swivel it and adjust it to whatever angle you like, which makes it even better. It will stick to nearly all cases, but not necessarily silicon. If you wish to keep this on your device at all times, it even collapses down so you can keep using it as normal and only pop it out when you need it. It weighs only a few ounces so you won’t even notice that it’s there.
Alternatively, you can use it as a grip holder on your phone as well so you decrease the risk of dropping it and breaking it. The newer iPhones in particular are smaller, lighter and smoother than ever, so it makes it even easier to drop your phone right on its face, but this device stops you from doing that.
It’s made with a special reusable adhesive, so no matter how many times you pop it off and put it back on; it should still stick like a charm.
This inexpensive little device is incredibly handy and is perfect for people who drop their phone a lot or do a lot of traveling. Whether you get it for yourself or for someone as a gift, for $10, you can’t beat it.
