The PopGrip Slide attaches to the iPhone and is specifically designed to work with Apple's Silicone Cases, coming in matching Black, White, Pink Sand, Midnight Blue, and Red color options.
PopSocket accessories allow for easier one-handed control of the iPhone, and the company says that it lets users take better selfies and can even be used as a stand for watching videos. The PopGrip Slide is compatible with PopSockets swappable products so the top can be twisted off and a new design can be added.
PopGrip Slide costs $15 and will be available exclusively on Apple.com and in select Apple stores soon.
Update: Now available.

Makes the phone useable with one hand though... Like the loopy case too.Utterly obnoxious. But hats off to the guy who invented them.
Spoiler: They don't.This looks interesting although the colors are kinda MEH.
I wonder how this would work with a wireless charger though?
Hmmm
The... wireless charging... port?NOT compatible with iPhone 11 as it blocks the wireless charging port.
I think ChromeAce meant to say "...it blocks the wireless charging..." spot. However it doesn't necessarily "block" the spot more then it precludes the iPhone 11/11 Max from making sufficient contact with a wireless charging pad.The... wireless charging... port?
I've heard that if a person were to position the PopSocket closer to the bottom of an iPhone, it allows the iPhone to get closer to the pad by leaning on it so that the phone will charge. With the new PopGrip Slide a person could conceivably "slide" it down or off the phone so that a person could wirelessly charge it. But as Brenzo just noted, it probably is a hit or miss proposition and a general pain in the butt to do so.

Should also note I have a very thin plastic case on, not thicker Apple silicone case, not sure if that makes a difference.
