ZNAPS -The $9 Magnetic Adapter for your mobile devices

Bakgrund

I ordered 3 sets of these, they look really neat. The company is pretty legit as well, they've been sending me all sorts of stuff like their company registration and stuff, all sorts of updates.

I ordered 5. 

I contacted them to see if they will work with other devices, and I was told that they will. 

I ordered them for my Xbox One and Wii U Pro controllers.

I'm tempted to get AUX as-well via the additional pledge.

I'm not sure how sold I am on the AUX one. It might be convenient in some cases but I know that they've said ZNAPS are powerful enough to stay on but if you pull it at all then it will come out and I put light pressure on my AUX cable all the time (for example if I go to grab something on my desk my arm might move the cable a bit away and yank a little) and I don't want my sound to cut every time that happens. I have never damaged or broken an AUX connector like this because I never pull it at any significant force but I'm positive that it would still be enough to disconnect a magnetic connector. It would work in cases where your AUX cable is completely out of the way but I don't think it'd be good for me. Unless of course I'm underestimating how strong the magnets are and if my lightning ZNAPS are semi-strong then I will likely order an AUX ZNAPS at some point - although I still rarely plug & unplug my headphones so I don't think it'd be worth the $9 for a connector + adapter even then. I would for sure never get it for mobile use though for obvious reasons.

I don't plan to use it for my phone, I think it might be quicker than switching from headphones to speakers for me.
