What it Is
How it Works
To install it, you place one end through your case’s camera hole or through the top of the case. The other end goes along the bottom. Then, using the adhesive on the strap, you stick it to your case, adjusting as you see fit. Once you’re comfortable with the space it gives you on the back for your hand, you just pop your phone back in the case. Your phone and the adhesive hold the straps in place.
But Does the Loop Phone Strap Work?
It does, depending on the case you use. A slim fitting case that doesn’t have a lip that goes over the front of your phone may pop off because this does add about 0.6mm of space between your case and your smartphone. Larger, thicker cases work best, but I’ve found it works with my Incipio Feather case, a lightweight hard plastic case.
With the right case, your phone will be secured to your case and therefore the Phone Loop Strap as well. I found that it took some getting used to, but once I did, using my phone without it felt strange. It’s incredibly easy to hold my iPhone in place now. Plus, it adds a bit of style to my otherwise dull iPhone case.
The Loop Strap comes in a variety of colors and designs, and you can even create your own designs. If you’re worried about dropping your phone while using it with one hand, you should definitely consider getting one. The company ships from Canada, and it can take a while to arrive to the states through the mail, but if you’re willing to wait, grab two designs and get free shipping for the best deal.
Right now the Loop Phone Strap is $4.99 per strap, instead of its usual price of $5.99. You can also get one for free if you buy 5. it works for nearly every phone, and will give you some peace of mind while you’re out and about. If you’d rather a camera-style loop that allows your phone to dangle, you may want to check out the Loop Phone Leash. It’s the same price, but offers a different option to users for securing their devices.
