The company has introduced a MagSafe version of its Flex Pouch, a small, expandable compartment that attaches magnetically to compatible smartphones. It can be pulled off whenever you want, turning an ordinary phone into a tiny, stretchy handbag that\u2019s ready to hold all the little things that tend to disappear into our pockets.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The pouch can accommodate anything from a single credit card to a thick stack of twenty, according to the company. Lip gloss and wireless earbuds can be squeezed inside, along with a handful of loose change. The contents press against the soft silicone, creating a lumpy silhouette that changes depending on what\u2019s packed inside. Empty it out, and the pocket shrinks back down.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1212294 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ninja-labs-magsafe-flex-pouch-designboom-01.jpg\" alt=\"ninja labs magsafe flex pouch\" width=\"818\" height=\"654\"  \/>images courtesy Ninja Labs<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>memory silicone stretches to twice its original size<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The design relies on Ninja Labs\u2019 proprietary silicone blend, which can stretch to twice its original size before returning to its familiar shape. Its naturally grippy surface wraps around the contents, keeping objects in place without a zipper or clasp. The pouch expands outward from the flat surface of the phone, making room for surprisingly bulky objects while leaving them accessible from the top.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/ninjalabs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">company<\/a> says the material retained more than 90 percent of its original stretch after 10,000 stretching cycles. The silicone can accommodate objects with irregular shapes, although the company advises against storing ordinary house keys or anything with sharp edges that could puncture the material. A car key fob, on the other hand, fits inside the soft pocket.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1212295 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ninja-labs-magsafe-flex-pouch-designboom-02.jpg\" alt=\"ninja labs magsafe flex pouch\" width=\"818\" height=\"654\"  \/>Ninja Labs introduces a detachable MagSafe version of its stretchy Flex Pouch smartphone accessory<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>ninja labs gives its flex pouch a magsafe update<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The magnetic attachment is the latest development in Ninja Labs\u2019 existing Flex Pouch collection, which originally incorporated the stretchy pocket directly into an iPhone case. With the new MagSafe version, the storage compartment becomes an independent accessory. It snaps onto the back of a compatible phone or case and can be removed in seconds, allowing users to keep their existing protective case.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The $58 USD MagSafe Flex Pouch is available in pink, baby blue, lavender and black, with translucent silicone and a sparkling pink option among the finishes. It works with MagSafe-compatible iPhones and can also be used with Android devices fitted with a suitable magnetic case. The accessory provides storage without any additional protection for the phone itself. And while it might be an unusual sight to see a phone bulging with cosmetics or a bundle of cards, the ability to leave the bag at home could be tempting.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1212296 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ninja-labs-magsafe-flex-pouch-designboom-03.jpg\" alt=\"ninja labs magsafe flex pouch\" width=\"818\" height=\"654\"  \/>the expandable silicone pocket makes room for small items that would otherwise end up inside a handbag<img loading=\"lazy\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1212297 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ninja-labs-magsafe-flex-pouch-designboom-04.jpg\" alt=\"ninja labs magsafe flex pouch\" width=\"818\" height=\"654\"  \/>the pouch snaps onto the back of a MagSafe-compatible smartphone or case<img loading=\"lazy\" bad-src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1212298 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ninja-labs-magsafe-flex-pouch-designboom-05.jpg\" alt=\"ninja labs magsafe flex pouch\" width=\"818\" height=\"654\"  \/>the proprietary silicone blend can stretch to twice its original size before contracting again<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"a tiny handbag for your smartphone \u00a0 There\u2019s now room for your AirPods, chapstick, and car key fob&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":888793,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[165,54225,74],"class_list":["post-888792","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mobile","tag-mobile","tag-personal-technology","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/888792","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=888792"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/888792\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/888793"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=888792"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=888792"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=888792"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
