Hey guys it's Olivia and I'm back with another video.
So as you can tell by the title of this week's video, I am going to be doing 1 popsocket
vs 2. Because this is my iPhone 5S and as you can see it has 2 popsockets on it, this
is actually a popsocket case, comes with 2 popsockets built in. And then I upgraded to
an iPhone 6 and obviously this case is not going to fit on this phone. So then I went
out and bought this popsocket, but I only bought 1. So today we're comparing 1 popsocket
vs 2. Now before this video starts, be sure to subscribe to my channel because I do make
new videos every Monday, I make anything from Popsockets, to Unboxings, to Skits, to Vlogs,
to Rants, to whatever I feel like uploading on Monday. So without further ado, let's get
into the video. So first things first we're going to do the basic popsocket stuff. So
with 1 popsocket I'm just going to hold it like this, this is how I hold my popsocket
just in between my ring finger and my middle finger, and when you hold it like this, yeah
that, it's not, it's not going to fall. And then if I take 2 popsockets this is how I
hold my 2. Once again, not going anywhere. So with the whole hold-ability aspect, um,
I think they both win. Then another reason you might get a popsocket is to use it as
a stand. So I don't have a desk or anything in front of me so this is my laptop. So if
I hold my laptop up, 1 popsocket stands pretty well. And then if I take 2, it stands as well.
Then if you wanted to stand it vertically as you can notice my 1 popsocket is located
practically in the middle of my phone. If you look at the 2 popsockets, one of them
is located very much near the bottom. So with 2 popsockets you can stand it vertically,
in case you ever wanted to do something vertical. But with 1 popsocket, depending on where you
position yours, that's not, it's not really going to work. So, if you position yours at
the bottom then it will stand vertically but then it won't stand horizontally. So I guess
that just kind of depends on which one you prefer, or which one you'll use more, or even
if you'll do either of those things. Then the third test, this is something that I don't
know if other people do with their popsockets, but I do this all the time. So we're going
to start with the 2 because I know for a fact it works for 2 because I had this phone for
a while. So, this is my laptop; when I open it up if I ever want to multitask or if I
just want to have my phone near me in case I get any notifications or anything, if I
have 2 popsockets I can just put it on top, pop them closed, and my phone stays there.
So then from the front, that's what it looks like. And I, when I had this phone with this
case this was my set up a lot of times. Like when I had spare in school, I'd be like watching
a video or something on my laptop and then just like have my phone there just in case.
I love this setup, I do this all the time. If you don't do this, um, you're welcome;
I just taught you a popsocket hack. Then with 1 popsocket, I just have a feeling it's not
going to work. And I was right, my phone is currently upside down. So um, that's not how
I want it. Like, nope. It just, it just turns, and that's not what I want, so it doesn't
work with 1 popsocket. So if you want to try out my hack, is it even a hack? I don't even
know if I made that up. But if I did, and you want to try my hack, you can't because
it doesn't work with 1. What, what is this? The next test I'm going to do is the headphone
test. So when popsockets advertises themselves they say, "Oh, you can wrap your headphones
around them," and I honestly do. Still, we're going to start with 2 popsockets.
We're going to pop them out and then basically you just start from the bottom where the headphone
jack is, unless of course you have an iPhone 7 and you don't have one. So you start where
your headphone jack should be and then you just wrap it around. Quite simple really.
And then you just pop them down. And this, you don't understand how convenient this is.
Like I used to do this all the time, and like I, like used to wear, I still wear, a lot of
hoodies; so like hoodies, they just like pull over and then they have the pocket at the
front, I would just like slip this into my pocket. And it still functions as a popsocket
even with the headphones on it. You can still hold your phone and you can still lay it horizontally.
It still does everything it needs to do, but now it's multitasking. And the best part is
when you're ready to use them, they're not tangled; which is a lifesaver for any,
for any human who uses earbuds. So, with 1 popsocket I did see a picture of someone doing this
once and I did try it once but I didn't particularly like it, so now I just throw my earbuds into
my pocket and then they come out like this. But I saw someone do this, you start at the
bottom where your headphone jack either is or should be, and you, so you start here at
the back, wrap it around the popsocket, and then you wrap it around the front corner of your phone.
And so around the popsocket, around the phone.
And so that's literally what you do when you only have 1, and then you pop
it down. And while it does work, I don't know if you care that much, but it does cover a
little bit of your screen, and it covers your power button if you have one of the newer
iPhones and the power button is on the side. But when you put it on the back of this, it's
completely out of your way. This, it's not too bad like this is still functional, but
I find that it does just slide off the corner really easily and then it still gets tangled
in your pocket, but instead of it like just being tangled around itself, it's also tangled
around your phone and the popsocket, so now you just have extra tangly headphones. So,
if you are a very delicate human and you're just going to like put it in your pocket and
it's going to stay intact, then yes, this will work for you. But if not, then, you can always
buy a second one. But yeah, it works, see oh my gosh it's coming apart. But for the
most part it works. Then my last test, and I don't even think that this can be counted
as a real test unless I do this. We are going to film a musical.ly. We're going to see if
a musical.ly looks better if you use 1 or 2, because this is important. Like I have a
musical.ly account, I post on musical.ly all the time, and I want to know if I'm hindering
myself by only having 1, so that's what we're going to find out. So I've already pre-chosen
a song, I haven't filmed the musical.ly yet but I've chosen the song that I want to use
just to speed up the process. And we're going to do more or less the same movements so that
we can judge which one's better. So this is the song that we're doing:
♪ Don't forget about, 'bout, 'bout, 'bout, 'bout me. Even when I doubt you. I'm no good without you. No, no. ♪
I'm practicing my lip syncing skills, obviously, 'cause music, yeah it makes sense. So ok,
so we're going to post video, shoot now. I'm going to put it on fast because that's what
all the musical.ly people do, and we're just going to go. So...
We're going to...
♪ Don't forget about, 'bout, 'bout, 'bout, 'bout me. Even when I doubt you. I'm no good without you. No, no. ♪
Ok I think that was pretty decent I just kind of made it up on the spot, so yeah. So I honestly
don't even remember what I just did but we're going to try to emulate that using 2 popsockets.
So we need to find the song. Ooh, I haven't filmed a musical.ly on this phone in a while.
So ok, so putting it on fast.
Oh the, that volume is low, we need to turn this up so we can hear it.
Watching this one.
♪ Don't forget about, 'bout, 'bout, 'bout, 'bout me. Even when I doubt you. I'm no good without you. No, no. ♪
Ok, so after watching the two, I'm pretty sure they're
very similar. I didn't do like a lot of sharp movements or anything, to like kind of compare,
but I did notice that my fast to slow transition was smoother when I used the 2 popsockets.
Maybe it's because I had a better grip so my hand didn't move, but that was just like
a quick musical.ly that I just made. Usually I'd like re-film it like 50 gajillion times,
but in my opinion the one with 2 popsockets came out better. I actually am planning on
getting 2 popsockets for this phone, I just haven't yet. But not specifically just for
musical.ly, but for my hack that you saw with my laptop; like I literally love doing that
and I can't do it right now. But um yeah, that was my comparison between 1 popsocket
and 2. Maybe this helped you decide whether or not you were going to buy 1 or 2. I have
1 and I've had 1 since April and it's now September and it's been working pretty well
for me, but I do kind of want a second one and I think it's better if you have a bigger
phone. Like this is a smaller phone and I had 2 popsockets, this is a bigger phone and
I only have 1. Where's the logic? I can't tell you. But um, I will probably be getting
a second one. So yeah, that was my comparison with 1 vs 2. And in this video I did mention
that I have a musical.ly so like if you want to follow me on there, feel free. And also,
if you want me to do a musical.ly tutorial or many musical.ly tutorials; I can do regular
lip-syncs, I can do transition musical.lys, I can do comedies whatever you want, um, just
