Very satisfied. Bye/UPDATE: Not happy anymore.

This particular ring had been on my wife's iPhone 11 for around 4-5 days at the time of writing this review. I have used other call types/designs for a long time. Some of the pros and cons I list below are specific to this ring, but some apply to all phone rings on the market. Pros: Versatility. It can have a stand function in both horizontal and vertical directions. This ring adds the ability to snuggle up to the car's air vent, which is handy if you don't have a stand or rent one. phone protection. When you don't want to put your phone in your pocket because of loose change and scratches. The ring is a great way to ensure you don't drop your phone, even when you're holding a lot of things. Just hang it on your little finger. The only time I dropped my phone was when I was too lazy to use the ringer. Durable and strong. Nice. The adhesive sticks securely, probably branded adhesive from 3M (has the 3M logo on the protective film). phone more than doubled. Even when folded, it's thicker than the phone itself. Color. I ordered black but looks more like gunmetal as you can see in the photo against other black finishes. When will we see: 1) Will the finish remain? I wouldn't be surprised if the logo fades within the next month or two (probably better off anyway). The rest of the finish is a question. 2) Will the base break? Right where the metal rings go into the base, I see that area splitting open over time since you're basically putting pressure on those points every time you push them onto your car's air vent. In addition, your car vibrates constantly. 3) Will there be rigidity allowing it to maintain orientation? It's very stiff at the moment but it's a fact of engineering they will loosen up, the question is how much? Once it reaches a certain point it may not stay in horizontal mode, especially when tied to an air conditioning vent where vibration will cause it to rotate if not rigid enough. I will try to update the review on these open questions. UPDATE: 1) Well the finish definitely failed. Added two new photos. It's been 3 weeks and it's already started to peel off.

Pros
  • Universal Compatibility
Cons
