Hear me out. Bags come with handles that make them easy to hold, so do cups… so why don’t phones come with handles too? No, I’m not under the influence of anything, it’s just a pretty straightforward question. Phones today are much bigger (and also more slippery) than the average hand can hold… try using your phone for an entire day with just one hand and you’ll realize it isn’t really possible or comfortable (go ahead, try pressing that back button on the top left corner on your iPhone). This weird phone-palm-size-conundrum has ended up spawning a dozen products, from pop-socket rings to friction cases… but the guys at Phone Loops have a pretty simple idea that, at least on paper, works rather remarkably well. The Phone Strap is a simple piece of silicone that ‘rubber bands’ around your phone (sitting wedged between your smartphone and cover), giving you a handle to help you hold your phone better. Measuring just 0.85mm (.03 inches) in thickness, the strap sits flat on the back of your phone-case at all times, respecting its sleekness and allowing you to fit your phone into your pocket with ease; but slip your hand underneath the strap and it suddenly transforms into a handle, letting you hold your phone comfortably without danger of it falling or accidentally slipping from your hand while you use it.
The solution sounds incredibly rudimentary, but that’s exactly what’s so appealing about it. As simple as the idea outwardly is, it’s just as effective too. The silicone band provides just the right amount of traction, ensuring single-handed phone-use with absolute ease, and it just universally fits on any type of smartphone you have, sandwiching itself between the phone and case to make sure it never slips out accidentally. No matter what phone you have, where the camera’s oriented, or even if you’ve got a MagSafe accessory on your case, the Phone Strap finds a unique way to integrate itself in place, giving you the functionality you need… without being as monstrous and ugly as some of those thick ring-sockets.
Each Phone Strap comes made from food-grade silicone, is easy to sanitize, and comes in one universal size that fits onto any phone like a glove. The silicone provides just the right amount of friction, ensuring your phone never slips out from your hand, and it even allows you to hang your phone from hooks or other hook-like forms to create your own MacGyverian phone-stands. Each Phone Strap also comes with an optional Modular Sling which lets you turn your phone into a cross-body wearable, sort of holstering it in place right across your chest. It’s oddly fashionable, and is a neat way to carry your phone around on your person (quite literally, if I may add)! When strapped in place using the Modular Sling’s carabiner-style clips, your smartphone can also become a fitness wearable or a body-cam, allowing you to either track your workout, or film your morning run. The Phone Strap and Modular Sling are unconventional at best, but they’re a great example of lateral thinking. They solve common problems perfectly, although in justifiably unique ways… and if the only complaint you have at the end of the day is that they’re unusual, well then so be it!
