Super strong magnets! Very confidence inspiring

The magnets connecting the Mobile Wallet to the Case is super strong. It makes me confident that I won't lose the wallet randomly through the day just by using my phone. Few small quirks that keeps it from being perfect: 1. The flap used to pull out the cards is a little floppy. It would be nice if it's a little more rigid. The fabric used is very good though; it would just be easier to pull out/push back in if the flap is more rigid. 2. The magnet is so strong that sometimes it is hard to open the stand without disconnecting the wallet. But it beats weak magnets any day. 3. Sometimes the wallet isn't attached to the case completely parallel. This makes the phone wobble when using the stand. Just a quick nudge fixes it, but would be nice if it can align straight on its own.
I love this wallet over any other magsafe wallets. The material which is excellent. The capacity which is super and fits everything from 7 cards to cash too.
Bought the peak design magsafe case, but none to my liking had an integrated card slip. The magnetic mobile wallet was the best next thing. It is sturdy and have a powerful magnetic lock. And the design looks great. Price is high though.
I have the “slim” version without the stand part….it fits onto and matches my case beautifully, but for me it’s best use is as a pocket wallet… as that it is a perfect size for what I need to carry and becomes very small and light and slim…just lovely… But: when full, it just doesn’t retract smoothly nor consistently…I often need to fiddle to get it to close…and the closing tab often gets tucked under rather than over….
I did not know I wanted a kickstand for my phone until I got the stand wallet. Inside the hinge area, there are two unintentional pockets that are not advertised for card holding but I utilize it as such. If one of those unintentional pockets had a ID viewing window with easy access to remove the ID, a 5 star would have been warranted.
PK, I'm ready to be a product tester for MOBILE STAND WALLET 2.0 w/ID window.
I have several MagSafe wallet stands and this is probably the thinnest and lightest one I’ve tried. It also stores more cards than all the others as well. I mostly carry 2 credit cards and my drivers license but could easily fit several more. The design carries the cards on the outside of the wallet which contributes to the overall thinness of it. If they were stuffed inside as they are on many such wallets the closing of the stand would be less secure adding to the bulk of the wallet. The mechanism for removing the cards also makes it the easiest of all the ones I’ve tried. You just use the top tab to slide the cards up and grasp the one(s) you want. That tab is magnetic and closes securely over the cards and there is also a bit of friction internally that secures the cards very well with no chance of them coming out unintentionally.
The magnetic grip is excellent but that is dependent on having a good MagSafe case, although it works well with a bare phone too but is not as secure. I’m not currently using a Peak case but I think the combo would look outstanding. As it is this is also one of the best looking such wallets I’ve seen. As a stand this is excellent with a hinge that is rigid enough to be positioned at a multitude of angles with a heavier phone, I use a 14 Pro Max. Price wise this is at the higher end of such products but if that is acceptable you won’t find a better one out there.
