I'm using the mobile slim wallet for about a month. I carry about 5 cards in it plus a folded 20€ bill just in case. I appreciate that it's small and slim, that the magnetic flap keeps it well closed, and I appreciate how I can simply attach it to my phone with the magnetic Slimlink. The attachment is strong enough that I am not afraid it will fall by itself and it does not add a lot of bulk or weight to the phone in my pocket when attached. When I travel by car, I separate the wallet because the phone stays on my Peak Design car mount, but keeping them attached in general avoids me having to keep track of 2 items instead of one. Getting regular sized cards in and out of the wallet is easy. I also put in a couple of small store cards (same thickness, about a quarter of the surface) but it was harder to take them out (not enough of the small card sticked out so I can grab it), so I stopped carrying those. I also appreciate the material and the color that is matching that of my PD phone case.
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.
