Magnetic rings and kickstands: getting the most from your case
Two features in our range change how you use a phone every day: the magnet ring and the fold-out stand. Both are simple, and both work better with a few habits.
These tips apply to our iPhone and Galaxy kickstand cases, the iPhone matte series and the Pixel magnetic series.
| Accessory | Works with the ring? | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Magnetic charging pad | Yes | Close the stand so the case lies flat |
| Magnetic car mount | Yes | Center the phone on the ring for the firmest hold |
| Magnetic wallet | Yes | Pixel N52 ring holds heavier wallets |
| Upright wireless stand | Usually | On Pixel 10 Pro XL, remove the case for fastest charging |
Let the ring find the coil
Bring the phone close to a magnetic charger and let it snap into place rather than sliding it on. The ring self-centers over the coil.
Open the stand from the bottom edge
Pull the stand out with a fingernail from the lower edge. It opens smoothly to 60° and holds at any angle between.
Portrait for calls, landscape for video
Upright suits video calls and recipes. Sideways suits films and games. The lowest angle works on plane tray tables.
Keep the ring clean
Wipe the back of the case now and then. Grit between the ring and a mount scratches both.
Fold it before you pocket it
The stand sits flush when closed. Fold it before the phone goes in a pocket or bag.
Snap it on, stand it up, fold it away. That is the whole routine.
