Alternative to Flygrip?

[JAJameson2010]

I've had a flygrip for a couple years now. The first type that snapped into place worked well. The new magnet version was so nice until it started getting wiggly and opening on it's own. I tried to change cases and the magnet fell off. I super glued it back on, but the thing is having issues staying closed.

So.... I'm on the search for something else. What would everyone recommend? Such a small market I'm not even sure what to google to find stuff!

Uh, didn't know FlyGrip changed their designed (Gravity with magnet, right?). I reviewed their original one here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2/701178-flygrip-review-lots-pics.html

Another alternative is SlingGrips, reviewed here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...g-grips-formerly-known-thingsling-w-pics.html

You can also look into Bunker Ring 3, original one for $17: Amazon.com: **WHITE** i&Plus Bunker Ring 3 - Anti Drop Ring for iPhone 5 4S 4 3GS The New iPad 2 3 iPad Mini Kindle Fire Touch Samsung Galaxy S3 S2 Note Note2 Nexus Note Epic Touch 4G HTC EVO 4G Rhyme DROID RAZR BIONIC INCREDIBLE 2 Semi Permanent Adh or an equally working knock off for $2: Amazon.com: HOTER® Bunker Ring Stand Holder for Iphone 4 / 4S / 5 Sumsung Galaxy S2 S3 S4 Note Ipad Ipod - White: Cell Phones & Accessories

There is also $12 LazyHands: [url=http://www.amazon.com/LAZY-HANDS

Wow! You found many more options than I did today! I've been searching for hours. I just ordered the $2 bunker ring knock off. I'll work my way around from there! I can't thank you enough for compiling that list

Thanks FlyGrip! I did sent you an email earlier today. I did not know about the 1 yr warranty though.

After looking at all the options though I think they will frustrate me since I've been using the flygrip for so long. I've been spoiled. I am interested in the bunker ring... but the restriction of the sideways hold I think will irritate me. Worth a try though for the $4!

I did review of that bunker ring on another website (I mirror all my review on XDA-Dev): xda-developers - View Single Post - Almost "real" Defender and Survivor cases for Note2

It definitely works and you can rotate it any way you want to. Of course, for $2-$4 I don't know how long it will last, though looked solid to me. One thing with bunker ring - it has a sticky gel pad that attaches to any surface and can be removed and re-used (just wash under warm water). It's convenient, but at the same time FlyGrip with its double sided 3M tape is a more secure solution, although you will not be able to easily switch it from one case to another. Like I said, you got a lot of options. Definitely get a replacement under warranty from FlyGrip, and come back with your impressions of bunker ring.

Thanks so much I'll check out that link

I did get a replacement. The Flygrip CS is really awesome! Even though I think I might have messed the fly grip up by using the superglue to put the metal part back on. Ops...

The whole removable and reusable thing has be a bit worried about the strength. For the $4 it will be an interesting thing to try! I think I'm not going to like anything as much as the fly grip though. I am a phone case hopper so already have a stockpile of the 3M replacement flygrip stuff from over the past year.
