  • A phone grip is one of the most useful tech accessories you can buy for less than $15.
  • They give you a more secure and comfortable grip on your device, saving it from fatal drops. Many also double as stands to prop your phone up.
  • We found 8 popular and affordable options from Amazon that you may want for your phone.

Like a Spotify Premium membership or a pair of comfortable underwear, a phone grip is one of those small investments that has exponentially improved my life and led me to question how I ever went about my day without it.

I've watched with horror as my phone has slipped out of my hand and fallen (always in slow motion, it seems) to the ground too many times to count. A strong phone case cushions the blow, but I'd still rather not drop it in the first place.

After finally sticking a grip on my device, I've felt much more secure holding my phone on bumpy commutes, in bed - pretty much anywhere, honestly.

For less than $15, you can get an additional layer of protection for that device you just spent hundreds of dollars on.

The best phone grips are also comfortable to hold and have multiple functions, capable of being turned into car mounts, stands, and card holders. Since there's only so much real estate available on our phone exteriors, we love this versatility.

On Amazon, you have a number of reliable options, and they're all really affordable. Do yourself and your phone a favor by shopping these 8 phone grips:

The LoveHandle is a soft, elastic strap that sticks to your phone, allowing you to loop multiple fingers through to get a better grip. The only potential drawback is that it stretches out after prolonged use, so it might not be the best long-term option.

Fitfort

Fitfort
FITFORT Phone Ring Holder, $8.99, available at Amazon

You touch your phone countless times throughout the day, which means the material of your phone grip better be durable. This one's made from stainless steel and looks sleeker than other phone grip options. The 360-degree rotation and 180-degree flip capabilities add more to its versatility.

Speck

Speck
Speck GrabTab, $9.95, available at Amazon Shop all Speck phone accessories at Amazon here

The slim, card-sized GrabTab is similar to the LoveHandle in that you have a long strap that attaches securely to your phone. This loop, however, can be slid up and down, meaning that it's adjustable for any size hand or number of fingers. Once clicked into place at the other end, it can be used as a stand.
