I bought this a month ago and have just loved how convenient it is as well as compact for my needs. It fits a lot of cards, and now I never loose my wallet because it’s always on my phone! Great product.
The wallet stand is cool, but it would have been cooler if it used the mobile mount system. As it is the mag safe mount, while handy, doesn’t provide enough grip and comes off too easily. Guaranteed some people will lose their wallet when taking it out. Next release add the mount, or just offer a new product version with the mobile mount system.
Got it a little while ago and it has been perfect for carrying what I need around campus. Cards are easy to slide out and the magnet is super strong. I am able to scan my id when it is still in the wallet which is convenient for me but that does also mean that there is no RFID blocking features that I am aware of. It’s absolutely worth the price and has held up great over the last month with no sign of wear.
First, the snap every time you close the latch is so satisfying. Really adds to the experience of using the wallet. Some pros-- the case can fit four metal credit cards, one plastic credit card, and a driver's license with enough room to spare for one other card. Hinged back is stable in both upright and sideways positions. Material is resilient, as I take the wallet with me to the gym and wipe it down with a sanitizing wipe each day and it still stays good as new. No piling.
There is one area for improvement: The wallet isn't that secure when you're using another MagSafe compatible case.
It works amazing well with the Peak Design Everyday Case, as that case as extra magnets on the case itself. With other silicone cases, my wallet would fall off when I pick up the phone. This is noticeable when carrying metal credit cards which weigh a lot more.
Would love to see the wallet in more colors, especially midnight blue. Overall, a fantastic product.
Design: The Wallet Stand has a very solid design. This is engineered so well and feels solid in your hands. I love the satisfying magnetic click. I have found no flaws in the design so far! Functionality: This functions so well in its ability to hold the phone up. The magnets are strong and easily latches on to the Everyday Case. This can also be used directly with an iPhone (via MagSafe). You do not need the Everyday case for this Wallet Stand, although, I feel the magnets are stronger on the Everyday Case and would hold the Wallet Stand more securely. The Phone can be held in either Portrait or Landscape mode. The hinge on this so solid that the phone is held securely at any angle of the stand. The Stand locks on with a satisfying magnetic click. I open and close this all day long! The wallet stand easily holds 7 cards and if you push it, it can take 8 or 9 even. The card pull-out tab is one of the best features of this. The magnetic closure also doubles as a pull-tab. You pull on it and the cards slide out! This makes getting the cards out a breeze. Material of Construction and Durability: The case is made of canvas and looks like it will hold up for a long time. The only thing I am concerned about is the edges where the canvas material comes in contact with the interior structural metal plates. But, no problem so far.
I've had alot of minimalist wallets... this one by far the bets I've had. stand is awesome. Card pull is slick. ProTip: flip it up (fold it open) to leave attached while mounting to peaks magnetic car mount.
I bought the phone case and the wallet / stand. The magnetic "pull" isn't as strong as I hoped so decided not to use it. It's the first time I have not been delighted with my Peak Design product.
