Good little phone accessory
I ordered this product just a little over a year ago and it is still going strong.
About the product, it does what it says, it adheres to your phone via a sticky adhesive. There is a thin plastic protector on the back that you may have difficulty pulling off, so you may need some tweezers to grab it.
Things to take into consideration
You may have to reposition your popsocket multiple times before finding a comfortable position. If you have to reposition your popsocket, I highly recommend that you pull from the bottom where the adhesive is and not from the top where your design is or you run the risk of damaging your popsocket. Also a little water and air drying will help revive your adhesive and it wouldn't hurt to clean the area of your device you plan to put your popsocket either to help it stick.
At first I found I did not like the pop socket, but over time I found it to be more comfortable. I found it was more comfortable without my case when I had it paired with my galaxy s4, but of course the case serves an important purpose at that would be a no go for many. I'd say for myself, it took maybe a week to get used to, but now I love it especially since I upgraded to a larger phone.
If you you have larger hands the socket may not expand enough to your liking.
If you are buying for a tablet, you may have to use two Popsockets. I tried one with my 1st gen kindle and it held it up, but when I tried using the socket with my galaxy tab 3, the tablet was too tall and too heavy for just the one pop socket.
The popsocket will stick to many cases, but be aware if the back of the case has any indentions, the pop socket may not stick as well because there is less surface area to adhere to.
