Just got my Pixel 7 Pro and have been thinking of trying a pop socket on it.

Pros and cons...

Also, if you like to use the double tap gesture on the back of the phone, the PopSocket might interfere with that as well.

Wireless charging would be difficult if not impossible with a PopSocket on.
I just don't use wireless charging that much. It's generally too slow. I just ordered a rectangular Handl with car mount. Hopefully it doesn't add too much thickness. I'm just afraid that I'll drop it. I'm certainly not committed to using it if I don't like it.

Another option to consider would be to use a wrist lanyard (with a case that has holes for one, of course). When I travel and expect to take lots of pics, I always add a lanyard. When I'm out and about and ready to snap a lot of pics, I'll just keep the lanyard around my wrist, so that the phone doesn't accidentally go flying when I take it out of my pocket.

If you're using a case, check out the PopGrip slide. it's a PopSocket that attaches with a spring loaded grip rather than an adhesive pad. That means you can easily take it off and put it on. I've got one on my S21U and I just have to slide it down to the bottom of the case and it works with my wireless charger.

I have used a pop socket on 6 Pro and it really helped with one hand use. But it does interfere with the back tap a bit.

I too agree that a popsocket makes one-handed use very convenient and efficient. I liked using one on my Google Pixel 2.

That's a great idea!

Thank you for sharing that information about the PopGrip slide! It sounds like a convenient and versatile accessory for smartphones, especially with the wireless charger compatibility.I got something like below:
