PopSockets Launches Kick-Out Grip with Portrait Stand

Best Buy Named Exclusive Launch Partner

NEW YORK, May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- PopSockets, a global lifestyle brand, announced the launch of their newest product: the Kick-Out Grip & Stand, an innovative MagSafe phone grip comprising a multi-angle portrait and landscape stand. The Kick-Out Grip & Stand magnetically snaps onto MagSafe-compatible cases and phones, and it comes with a free adapter for non-MagSafe cases. It's available through PopSockets' nationwide retail partner, Best Buy, as well as on PopSockets.com.

"The Kick-Out Grip & Stand evolves from the original PopSocket I made in my garage years ago," said David Barnett, Founder of PopSockets. "The kick-out feature lets you prop your phone in portrait mode (finally!) for video calls, scrolling TikTok, creating videos, or displaying recipes. Our products are all designed to bring joy to daily phone life by eliminating pain points. I think this one hits the mark."

In addition to the exclusive colorways offered at Best Buy, Aluminum Radial French Navy and Aluminum Radial Silver, the full collection will include Black, Dusk, Putty, and Latte; an exciting upgrade for consumers searching for more hands-free mobile options.

Kick-Out Grip & Stand Features:

• Magnetic Grip & Stand: Snap-on grip with MagSafe and Qi2 compatibility
• Any-Angle Viewing: Adjustable hinge for portrait or landscape positioning
• Stronger Hold: Delivers up to 2X stronger magnetic hold
• Durability Tested: Built to withstand over 10,000 open/close cycles and up to 40lbs of force

"Best Buy's always been great at spotting what's next in tech," says David Barnett, "Their mix of know-how and real connection with customers makes them the perfect partner to help bring our newest product to life."
