If you're wondering whether the PopSockets Phone Grip works with wireless charging, there's a bit of a snag.

Our research points out that when you have a PopSocket attached directly to your phone or case, it might mess with wireless charging. This happens because the PopSocket's bulk can prevent the necessary alignment between the phone and the charger.

The manufacturer's description suggests a workaround: use a removable PopSocket or look into options like a PopMount that lets you detach it when it's time to charge. This way, you can still enjoy the benefits of a PopSocket without losing out on wireless charging convenience.

Some people stick the PopSocket on a case and just take the case off when they want to charge wirelessly. It's a bit of a hassle but makes sure everything works smoothly.

If wireless charging is a big deal for you, you might want to check out PopSocket's newer models. Some of them have swappable tops or can be moved around more easily, which makes it simpler to use wireless charging.

In the end, while PopSockets are great for handling your phone, you'll have to decide what's more important for you—having that handy grip or using wireless charging without any fuss. You might even find a model that checks both boxes.
