Review on FoneLeash 3-in-1 Phone Lanyard with Neck, Wrist, and Hand Strap Tether - Black by Victor Olsen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect for hand problems!

UPDATE: 6/25/2019 so many that I have ordered two more different colors. First I bought Shades of Grey, then Cosmic Galaxy, then Lucky Spade. I emailed Marvin at Foneleash with a few questions about the color of the Lucky Spade as I saw the originals very dark almost black so wasn't sure I got the right item as the new ones are a lot are brighter than the Lucky Spade 2.0 although they are still a bit different. Anyway, Marvin was amazing. He answered my questions very quickly and only cared about making sure I was happy! This is absolutely above what I expect from customer service. He explained that the Elders started making their soup dark, almost black, but they can no longer use that color in nylon fabric, so the current Lucky Spade is lighter. He offered to see if he had any of the original, darker ones lying around in his workshop, or give me the money back so I could buy either the Lucky Spade 2.0 or the all black, which should be restocked here at Revain in about one Week. , and on the Foneleash website within a few days. I told him it wasn't necessary and honestly I felt a little uncomfortable about it. I mean, the product is not defective! I just assumed Lucky Spade was still very dark, just like OG, although nothing says that's still the case. However, he said he would refund my money and he did. He told me to give this one as a gift if I didn't want to use it myself and take the black one with my refund. I think we exchanged emails with a dozen? That's how incredibly much he put into making me happy with my purchase! Seriously, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact Marvin at Foneleash. His email is on the Foneleash website. If you're using a hard case with enough hole in the camera hole, or if it's an iPhone XS/XR with a logo cutout for the strap to fit through, you should. I have no problem with the Foneleash. Super thin, tight-fitting clamshell cases don't fit, but for me and my iPhone XS Max, the Spigen Tough Armor XP case is PERFECT. I've heard good things about the Otterbox Defender as it has a logo cut out and you can remove the clear plastic that appears to be in that small cut out to get the strap through and as the dust cover loop is on the front, this is not the case. No awkward fit like might be the case with the Otterbox Commuter. As far as I can tell, Commuter and Spigen Tough Armor are at least very similar. So, I'm planning on getting the Foneleash in solid black when it's available here and to be honest I love it so much I might just end up buying all the colors. I decided I wanted something dark almost black after managing to spill tea all over me and my Shades of Gray Foneleash as I'm a bit clumsy and worried about getting it dirty in the future. However, he washed up well. Buy the right case, buy a Foneleash and if you have read many reviews and questions and know exactly what you are ordering, you will love it. Thing! Shout out to Marv from Foneleash he's awesome! I ordered this right after ordering a new iPhone XS Max as I have a habit of accidentally dropping my phone. I have some fine motor problems and my hands suddenly start to twitch due to nerve damage and fibromyalgia. The iPhone XS Max has a glass back and is the most expensive iPhone ever. You can see how this can end up in an absolutely horrific situation. Of course I have insurance for it, but I'd really rather not use it! I've looked at options similar to this one that have glue tabs with an attached tie or lanyard loop, but they don't seem to be as strong and durable as the Foneleash. I need durable. It's a little disappointing that I'm limited on what occasions I can use it as it has to be a case with an Apple logo cutout on the back, but that's the case designers and manufacturers fault, not Foneleash. . Earlier iPhones with a horizontal camera cut should work fine with this, as should most non-iPhones. You definitely want a hard case as you don't want the tension on the strap pulling the case off your phone. I paired mine with a Spigen case. I assume this is a case of Tough Armor or Rough Armor? It's the one with the neon yellow extra padding inside. Any of their logo cutout cases will work. The case doesn't quite sit flush at the bottom due to the very light mass of the strap itself, but that's negligible enough that it doesn't interfere with access to the Lightning connector or cover the speakers. . This does not affect how the case protects the phone in any way. It's just something my obsessive self noticed when I first put it on. It doesn't matter but I thought I'd share it. That may be because I bought a special Spigen case, as it has extra shock-absorbing padding on the inside. In any case, this does not detract from the loop! The leash itself easily attaches to the case and once installed works like a strap if you don't fully tighten it. There's also a wrist strap that's perfect for an average woman's wrist, but can be a bit tight for men to get over their hand. The neck strap is comfortable and the plastic clip that connects the neck strap to the rest of the leash is very strong. The material that makes up the leash is ultra high density nylon (I assume?) and I can't imagine it wearing out easily. The seams are perfect, there are no loose threads. It is really well made with quality materials. Totally worth every penny and more! I'm very glad I found this because people with disabilities tend to need adaptive devices like straps, straps, grips etc for mobile devices and the housing industry basically ignores us. It wasn't exactly the demographic the creator had in mind when he came up with it, but I'm incredibly grateful to him nonetheless. I actually went back to buy another bracelet as I wish it was a different color. but they all left Revane! I think I will order directly from their website. Oh, quite coincidentally and off topic, but I noticed that Marventures founder's name is Marvin and it caught my attention because I'm married to Marvin! It's a great name and in my experience the Marvins are pretty good too. So thank you Marv! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for dreaming up this brilliant creation! I would like to see more flowers. Especially the super bright, obnoxious glowing neon purple! Being limited to the cases that I can use with the Foneleash, I think I only need to buy a few Foneleash to change the look of my plain black case. Anyway, now I don't have to worry about dropping my outrageously expensive new iPhone, which is the most important thing!
