Super heavy.

This is a nice idea but it is super heavy and not very practical with bigger and heavier phones.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not for me, but might be perfect for others.

I've been eagerly waiting for this for a year. It finally arrived today and I'm underwhelmed. Alot of the imagery used on the website and in promo material showed the cards "fan out" when opened which is not a feature of this at all. Along with this, I have an iPhone 12 mini and the size of the wallet covers the lower portion of the main camera. Seems like it was designed for the other models with the mini as an afterthought. Overall it just feels off. Not the standard I have come to know from peak design.

Best wallet stand ever!

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.

Great Wallet

Just received my case and wallet. Love that I can use the kickstand for vertical and horizontal. I had another wallet case and after a while the slot for the cards got loose and I lost my cards. No bueno! Love that this has a) a strong magnet and b) that there is a flap that keeps the cards in. So happy

The item I use second most, but like the least...

of the PD Mobile world so far. But it is still well designed and well made! At least much better than the slippery and shiny accessories Apple has to offer... covered with the same fabric as the Everday Case, the wallet just feels incredibily good to touch and handle. What I don't like, it's not as tight a fit as the case and the metall part of the kick stand wobbels around inside. I don't need to put in there 6 cards; 3 or at max. 4 should be enough imho! As stated at the beginning, I use the wallet almost every day. Although it has these small flaws, it's very useful and almost indispensable for my daily life. The combination of Everyday Case and Mobile Wallet just rocks!

Awesome Wallet!

I have a few Peak Design products now and am definitely a fan of the quality. I was a bit skeptical at first about the fabric on the wallet and the durability, keeping it clean, smell, etc but can say there have been no issues with the quality of the material, storing my cards, functionality of the wallet. It holds your cards securely, the magnet is strong enough to not worry about the wallet falling off the phone while in use, perform activities. The stand has come in helpful quite a bit, the tripod has me intrigued but this wallet doubling as a stand has come in handy when you want to watch a video or just have your phone screen visible. Currently the wallet is holding 7 cards and I typically keep emergency cash in the wallet as well. You cannot store many bills but i have had no issues with my daily use. I can reduce the amount of cards on specific days to hold more cash which is fine with me. Overall I am impressed, I would at least try the product if you’re curious at all about it and return if you’re not satisfied. Build quality is definitely impressive as well, you can open the wallet stand 1 handed while holding the phone, takes practice but the magnet that holds the wallet stand closed is strong but manageable.

Looks good but has a lot of room for improvement

Me and my wife ordered two stand wallets. We immediately were disappointed after waiting more than a year to get it.
The real fault we found is the fact that the wallet doesn’t use the slim link system like the bike mounts and creator kit. This makes no sense. This is a wallet, it holds critical items and it only relies on magnets to secure it to your phone!
Taking the wallet off doesn’t require much force, makes no sound so there’s a real risk of losing it! Why PD decided to not include the slim link on such a critical item escapes me but I see a V2 of this product in the future that fixes this problem.
Another big issue, it doesn’t fit the iPhone 13 Pro well. It’s too big for it so it covers the camera lip just a bit and it doesn’t fit as securely as in my iPhone 13 Pro Max.
I can’t recommend this wallet to anyone looking for an actual secure wallet for their phone.

Fits iPhone 13 Pro perfectly! Don’t listen to Mel!
on February 15, 2022
Posted by: Joe
I just got this so I can’t give a full review yet, but from everything I’ve experienced so far this stand wallet is as nicely thought out as all of PD’s other products. Are there some things that could have been done better? Yeah. They probably should find a way to integrate the mechanical lock of the SimLink, but it’s pretty strong with the case. And would it be a pain if it did mechanically lock? Not sure.
The main reason I’m writing this review though is because I almost didn’t buy this stand wallet because of Mel’s review. I don’t know what his issue is/was, but it fits the iPhone 13 Pro just as expected. It DOES NOT go past the rim as you’ll see in my pictures. The card capacity is great. I have 6 and some thinner insurance cards right now. The hinge is awesome. It’s a bit bulky, but honestly, it’s still pretty slim considering the capacity. There are at least equally bulky MagSafe wallets that hold far less. This is a solid buy and another awesome part of PD’s mobile collection. I currently own the bike mount as well and could not be happier. I hope this helps!
I would recommend this to a friend!
