It’s good!

I enjoy the feel and look of the wallet. I have 4 cards I carry everyday and it holds them just fine. The wallet is very heavy and adds quite a bit of weight to the phone. The magnet isn’t as strong as others stated either. I use the Peak Design case with the wallet. Other MagSafe wallets like ESR are a lot stronger when paired with a case from that same manufacturer. I do enjoy the wallet though and will keep it until it fails.
I have been using the wallet for a few days, and I am not sure it meets my expectations. I love the size and form of the wallet. The pullout tab is nice to access the cards. However, it does not really stay attached to the phone as well as I had hoped. I have a iPhone 16 Pro Max with no case for reference. The top part of the MagSafe system feels pretty strong, but the bottom half of the circle, and the vertical line of magnets are not secure. The wallet twists on the back of the phone. And when I put it into my pocket regardless of jeans or khaki pants, the wallet can get knocked off relatively easy. I don’t know if my wallet has a defect or if this is just the way it is, but I do not foresee this as being my forever wallet. My prior wallet attached very secure but only held 3 cards and was not easy to access cards or hold a few bills. This wallet could be perfect with better hold.
Good but not great by PD standards (I own many PD products :). Functionally good- like the pull out strap feature compared to my Apple wallet which is difficult to extract a card. But it feels a bit rickety and the MagSafe isn’t as secure as the Apple Wallet.
Disappointing quality at this price point. The material on the interior of the wallet (between the stand and magnetic backer) is creased and refuses to lay flat. I expect better craftsmanship if I am going to pay up for a 'premium' product.
The wallet looks good, attaches quite securely to my Peak Design case and securely enough to my 3rd party case, and holds cards securely.
The video description says it holds up to 7 cards. Technically true, but kind of a stretch. It's hard to fully insert 7 cards and if you do, the fabric gets kind of bunched up. Even with just 5 or 6 cards, it's kind of finicky getting the cards fully seated. It takes an extra squeeze or to for everything to line up and sit flush.
The good 1. The stand is sturdy and holds the shape well. 2. SlimLink holds the wallet well.
The not-so-good: 1. The pull-tab is too flappy and often gets stuck behind the cards when I push the cards back in. Maybe a stiffer material would help. 2. The SlimLink holds the wallet well to my iPhone, but it twists/rotates easily so the wallet moves out of alignment with the phone case. This is probably due to the surface being slippery - both the wallet and the case (Everyday Case for iPhone) are the 100% recycled weatherproof Bluesign approved nylon canvas fabric. I have MagSafe compatible battery packs that hold their positions well because the attached surface has this rubberized texture.
